It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Judge Ho said NO to DOJ’s attempted corrupt dismissal of Eric Adams’ case. Usually prosecutors and criminal defendants are ADVERSARIES. But because Trump DOJ henchman Emil Bove is on defendant Adams’ side, Judge Ho appointed Paul Clement to be on the side of the American people. Points of light.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

I have reported on diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility in various fields for several years. DEIA just means acknowledging how systems have discriminated against different groups of people—in many cases for several decades—and strategic efforts to give those people jobs and opportunities.

Do you guys know how shitty it is to be married to a republican right now? And he's never even voted for Trump. We can't talk. If I bring up a concern, it's: "Oh, the democrats do the same thing." Joe Biden has dementia, but Trump is normal?! I'm not sure we're gonna make it the next 4 years.

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

In addition to Congress being the place that makes the laws, pretty key thing, the constitution explicitly says Congress gets to create the postal system. It’s not left implied that that comes under law making generally. The President has no power to unilaterally abolish it and move it to commerce.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

At some point US citizens in govt are gonna get sick of being fired in some pathetic penny wise pound foolish pogrom, and are going to fire back. The weakest enemy is the overconfident one.

A quick reminder for the folks who haven't been paying attention: The Russians are the bad guys. The Nazis were the bad guys. NATO is the greatest security alliance in history. The US dissing our allies and aligning with Team Bad Guys makes us less secure and more hated around the world.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.
