Trump is trying to spin German election into what he wanted. It's not. Trump, Vance and Musk wanted the Far right AfD party to win. They didn't. The new incoming German Chancellor just last week slammed Vance for praising the Afd party. The US is even more isolated. www.reuters.com/world/europe...

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

Much of the chaos of the past few weeks can be understood as part of the Trump administration’s “central ideological project: restoring America’s traditional hierarchies of race and gender,” @adamserwer.bsky.social writes. Call it the “Great Resegregation.”

The senior military officer purges will put our troops in danger. Trump put a part-time airmen incharge of the military, jumping a slew of 3 and 4-stars with 30-40 years of military experience. Our enemy couldn’t be happier.

Thousands of federal employees, some of them Trump voters, are now without jobs thanks to Musk who is going to get contracts and government subsidies for his companies. This while the price of eggs & groceries are high. These families just lost a source of income. How do you think will play out?

In addition to being illegal, unconstitutional and wrong, Trump's lawlessness is also an extraordinary abuse of power as we the people have to pay his legal bills and ultimately for the damages his harms will bring. He is legally and financially liable for nothing. Break laws, get sued, we pay.

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.

Election security is national security. And in its crusade against federal agencies, the Trump administration is gutting parts of the government that help protect against cyberattacks, combat foreign interference, and regulate campaign finance in federal elections.

Oh fuck, what a grift. J6 terrorists sue a DOJ controlled by Trump; Trump orders DOJ lawyers to settle for an undisclosed amount, both sides agree to an NDA. This can happen dozens, hundreds of times. Just an ingenious way to funnel tax dollars to far-right terrorist groups.
