"In normal times, I would report insider threats to the appropriate security channels inside the government- but there is no one left for me to report it to." Helpful context on Musk's takeover of Treasury:

Dear Democratic Leaders: here’s a free idea, send members of congress into the buildings where Elons people are and see what they’re doing. Dare them to stop you. Do something

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

Pay attention to actions

A professor was lecturing to his English class: “In English, a double negative forms a positive. In some languages, though, a double negative is still a negative. However, there's no language where in a double positive can form a negative.” A voice from the back of the room piped up, “Yeah, right.”

Because of everything

Jim Acosta Rocks

NEW: Over 300 civil rights groups sent a letter to U.S. senators urging them to vote against Pam Bondi’s confirmation to attorney general, citing her extensive record of opposing civil rights and anti-voting activities.

Old Guard Democrats on the hill need to get over their prejudice against digital media and content creators if they want to amplify their messages. Get on every podcast every day. Build audiences. Create a massive digital messaging network. Adapt or get left behind.

Big news. I’m running to replace Elise Stefanik in Congress. Since announcing, we raised $265k in just 21 days. 10,250 grassroots donors stepped up to chip in. We have to keep this momentum going. With so much on the line, will you chip in $21 for NY-21 so we can win this race?

You can put this on your calendar. I will remind more as we get closer to March 15.

Between this and his delusional press conference, what he’s actually messaging is that he’s worried about the fallout. So let him be worried. Let him be concerned and afraid. His misery is my 😊JOY😊

If you are a caucasian American citizen who speaks Spanish, I encourage you to do so in the presence of ICE to create more confusion and chaos.

The biggest cuts are to education when we need more investment than ever.

I am begging the national media to start taking this seriously. Stop buying the claims that the framing of "temporary" or "pause." They are altering the review processes of federally funded scientific research from merit-based peer review processes to political screening by ideologues.

Really love this cartoon from the great Michael De Adder. The outpouring of support coming in has been truly amazing! Thanks everybody!

Ah, one of the rarest things on this planet, someone with a spine.

I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

Democracy depends in part on people who refuse to comply with unlawful (and/or unethical) orders.

The Inspectors General refuse to leave until the action is taken legally, which they do not believe it was, and neither do senators like Chuck Grassley. This is what not backing down looks like. static.politico.com/b3/3e/5baf92...

Project 2025 is all about dismantling the federal government, just like this ….

You guys need to see this and take it in… Wise words from someone who is a target. And he’s been listening.

This is exactly what meta wants…

Over 400,000 Americans died fighting the horrors of fascism in WWII—now we have Trump henchmen mimicking a Nazi salute? It’s a disgusting insult to their sacrifice and a chilling sign of where we’re headed.
