NEW: The Trump/Musk blitzkrieg aims to destroy government to advance oligarchy & autocracy—and to crush the Democrats & the progressive agenda. It's an existential crisis. Yet so many Dems are missing in action. In my OUR LAND newsletter, I ask, WTF? Pls share. link.motherjones.com/public/38721...

The most notable thing about this clip from the president's address to the governors is the way Maine Gov. Janet Mills stood up to Trump. And the second most notable thing is the absolute stone-faced silence from the other governors in the room. www.c-span.org/clip/white-h...

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

“I’ll be damned if I’m going to stand by or remain silent during this hostile takeover of our government and its rejection of what makes America a special place. There’s the America I know and love—and then there’s Trump’s America.” www.americaamerica.news/p/rooting-ag...

I hope the rest of the world wakes up to this quickly. Trump will side with Putin against our allies and the free world. The US is going to the dark side and can no longer be trusted to defend democracies or keep our commitments. This is sad and shameful, but obvious and inevitable.

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.

Just as jarring as Trump's pro-Russia foreign policy pivot has been his embrace of Putin-like tactics at home, unfolding with a speed and ferocity far different than what Trump was able to pull off in his first term. Call it the Putinization of America. www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Trump is coming for Social Security! On Tuesday and Wednesday, Trump LIED saying nearly 20 million dead people are receiving Social Security. Trump/Musk are repeating this LIE to justify massive cuts to SS. Dems need to step up now! My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/twice-this...

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

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?
