I want to salute the Governor of Maine Janet Mills who, in that room with a raging Trump and silent complicitors, stood her ground and said, “see you in court!” Maine residents, show your support for your Gov for standing up for your independence.

We're close to diplomatic midnight. https://open.substack.com/pub/htsf/p/were-close-to-diplomatic-midnight?r=2sidg&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

Elon was openly threatening to fire the entire government during the campaign, you guys. Openly.

Shakedown politics: obey or I end you

lol what It’s about 160 million in 24 hours at peak. It’s a few dozen in a few minutes at a polling place. This not strenuous for a computer.

another thing every other president in history would be impeached for just happened

listen to this. Elon can barely form a sentence right now.

but don’t worry, the trump White House and musk want you to know nobody who performs safety critical functions was purged needlessly

Among those Trump and Musk fired at the FAA: - Lawyers who help keep drunk or reckless pilots out of the skies - Air traffic control support staff - Employees who track potential new flying hazards like cranes - Staffers who medically clear pilots to fly www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

CPAC too toxic for French far right. Bardella cancels speech after Bannon Nazi salute. Antisemitism the new wedge issue on the far right…🤔 www.barrons.com/news/france-...

Kleptocratic ketamine addict

If you’re ever in public while high on ketamine, this DEA pamphlet suggests you might want want to wear sunglasses, even indoors. www.dea.gov/sites/defaul...

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.

Besides the bad faith and epic corruption evidenced by the letter to @robertgarcia.bsky.social from this Trump waterboy, it is “whom you call a dick,” not “who you call a dick.” Grammar counts, you unctuous toady of the wannabe mob boss WHOM you serve.

This has been my point for weeks about what Musk is after. Consolidated data from the biggest mine of information in the world. He’s so thirsty for data he’d get his hands on the nuclear codes if he could. Could he? www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

I’ve been warning that the Tech Bros want the S.F. Presidio for a “freedom city”. Now this. 👇 1/

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

He should be our messenger.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse used this analogy for what Trump and Musk are doing: **It’s a smash and grab robbery.** Sounds about right. Robbing from the American people to give tax breaks to the wealthiest.

This is the most cowardly administration in history.

They are going to interrogate federal law enforcement officers and employees with polygraph tests to try to find out if they are talking to the press.

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We don’t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we don’t get invited on shows & don’t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Ruhle: The left-leaning podcast MeidasTouch has just done the unthinkable—dethroned Joe Rogan to become the country’s most popular podcast…

GOP: Grand Old Pansies

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Trump/DOGE fired federal employees who had accepted their deferred resignation offer. This is a shitshow.

I assume at some point we are going to get to see actual hard proof submitted in a sworn affidavit, grand jury indictment, congressional testimony, etc that millions of people are defrauding trillions from Social Security? Or is it just going to be social media posts & TV hits?

Bringing back the Nancy Reagan classics.

Is Elon the Spokesman or Don Jr?

Damn, either Musk took Trump’s desk while he was gone or Trump wanted it cleaned after Musk’s kid wiped his boogers all over it.

There always was Trump/Russia. There still is Trump/Russia. The early actions of the Trump administration signal the continuing force of Trump/Russia. Feel free to add to the list, but here’s my list. Note: It’s only been a month.

In addition to parroting Putin, Trump’s storm of angry lies about Ukraine is no doubt part of his pressure campaign to extort half a trillion in Ukrainian mineral rights he can dole out to his cronies. Corruption is usually behind the curtain.

Trump/Russia pays off for Putin again as Trump says Ukraine “started it,” spouting Moscow’s biggest lie. Trump/Russia was never a “hoax”; it is and always was real.

'I know I didn't fail:' Small Business Administration leader in Minnesota among thousands of federal workers laid off www.mprnews.org/episode/2025...

Inspector General audit: From 2015 to 2022, Social Security sent out $71.8 billion "in improper payments, most of which were overpayments" — out of $8.6 trillion in benefits, an error rate of 0.84%.

USDA says it accidentally fired officials working on bird flu and is trying to rehire them In a statement, an Agriculture Department spokesperson told NBC News that officials are "working to swiftly rectify the situation." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Elon claims trillions in social security went to dead people but instead of holding hearings on that today and having him and DOGE testify under oath, Republicans are filing bills to put Trump’s face on Mt. Rushmore & make his birthday a holiday. DON’T THEY CARE ABOUT OUR MONEY!

It’s becoming very clear that the Trump Admin never had any interest in serving as an honest broker to end the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The plan was always to join Russia and others in plundering the Ukrainian economy like a 17th century colonizer.
