Upon this response, JK burst into a million shards and a great wind scattered her unhappy soul beneath the arc of a newly formed rainbow.

fantasizing about a world where an opposition congress responds to trump’s attempts to usurp legislative power by defunding the entire white house staff

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

The biggest cage match ever will be between Musk and Trump. Elon will try to implement AI in a manner that automates much of what Trump is now trying to control. Trump will have no understanding of what is going on and will have to turn to the AI oligarchs to support him in this battle.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Gutting the CDC right as we’re on the cusp of major outbreaks of transmissible diseases is a very bad idea.

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

The removal of a transgender reference from the National Park Service’s Stonewall website wasn’t done by NPS staff. Elon, care to elaborate?

this is the development that most fills me with dread www.nytimes.com/2025/02/08/u...

I come from the right. It’s the cruelty. For the right, the cruelty is the point. The cruelty sells.

I tried my best to do a quick Cliffs Notes on the Apartheid PayPal Broligarchy that's running America now. It's Musk and his friends Thiel and Sacks. MAGA: Make Apartheid Great Again open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

A public policy scholar specializing in #nonprofits and foreign aid debunks 3 common myths amid the Trump administration's attacks on #USAID and funding disruptions:

BREAKING: Judge Nichols has issued his written order formalizing his decision to block the Trump administration from putting 2,200 USAID workers on leave tonight. He also orders the reinstatement of 500 workers previously put on leave. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community. No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality. Hate has no home here.

Elon Musk’s team is set to delve into the nation’s aviation system, with his 20-year-old staffers utilizing AI to assist the FAA in a rapid overhaul of aviation technology. However, a more practical solution would be to simply hire more workers, as the FAA is severely short-staffed.

In my latest piece with @assignedmedia.org, I discuss Trump's Executive Order restricting gender affirming care for those under the age of 19, how it has effected care, and what actions have been taken by those who are fighting back.

For real, I love muskrats. Instead, can we just call Elon’s incels the twitweasel anal sacs #muskrats

Ayanna Pressley: "Elon Musk is a Nazi nepo baby."

This is a great idea. Do you know anyone in Congress you can talk to?

An Elon Musk staffer misused the U.S. Marshals Service by falsely invoking their authority to intimidate. USAID security personnel were threatened with action by the federal Marshals Service.

It is our honor to serve you. America, you broke through— the media is finally picking up on what’s happening. We love you!! 🦬 💚 🇺🇸

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

PROP - PR Over Policy. Don't confuse them. He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him. Dems need to be strategic.
