It's nearly 5am and Republicans just rammed through their pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget blueprint. In order to pass massive tax giveaways for billionaires, they're going to defund Medicaid, slash veterans benefits, & force kids to go hungry. Make sure everyone knows it.

This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

Extortion, pure and simple.

Trump blames Ukraine for starting the war the way a rapist blames his victim for looking too sexy.

Here is my third weekly dispatch, imagining how the US media *should* be covering the Musk coup if it was clear-eyed about the threat to our democracy. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-trump...

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

“The most important part of the contract released by OPM is Section 13. It states that the federal employees who accept the agreement waive their right to enforce the agreement in court or in any other forum.” popular.info/p/update-the...

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?

Coup

Machtergreifung

Big national media outlet still failing. Headlines suggest some dispute over data access at US AID. *Not connecting the dots with other DOGE moves. *Not conveying illegality. *Not communicating constitutional crisis.

“Hold harmless” is the myth keeping the voucher scam afloat. Yes, this billion-dollar bill that goes mostly to kids already in private schools will hurt public schools. The math is not mathing.

GOP says this and is for tax cuts for billionaires. A messaging layup for Dems

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

Costco pharmacy is selling single dose levonorgestrel emergency contraception ("morning after pill") for $5.99 per dose. This is a product with a fairly long shelf life and they don't seem to mind selling it to people who clearly don't need it. No prescription needed.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

It’s almost like they want to keep America stupid—less financially stable & thus more controllable.

BREAKING: Middle Tennessee teen plotted 'another Christchurch' massacre, choosing Nashville mosque as target, FBI says www.newschannel5.com/news/newscha...

There’s nothing I could say about him here that you don’t already know. But as this next chapter of our nation begins, I just want you to know something I feel about you: I am going to hold you responsible for what he does. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...

ICE is planning immigration raids starting Tuesday. Please amplify.

57 companies are responsible for 80% of global greenhouse gas emissions since 2016. These companies include fossil fuel giants like Chevron, Shell, and BP, who have been raking in record profits. The profits of Big Oil should not be more important than the future of our planet.

REMINDER: It was never really about Blue vs Red, Democrats vs Republicans, Black vs White... It was ALWAYS about ultra-wealthy vs everyone else. And now they want to ransack our Social Security so they can get another tax cut for the rich. Fuck. That.

I don't know if the LA fire department is properly funded or not but the claim that the city cut its budget last year — which is circulating widely on the right — is false. As Politico notes, the budget actually INCREASED by $50 million. A portion of the funding was approved in a separate bill.

Shortly after Citizens United, Jimmy Carter issued a stark warning about the role of Big Money in politics. May we remember the truths that he told us — and act to remedy them. bit.ly/4j6N1cC

My insurance company denied medication my Dr. prescribed for me. I was able to fill it and pay out of pocket at @mcuban.bsky.social's Cost Plus Drugs. It was super easy and super inexpensive. Thank you Mark for caring more about helping us than feeding your ego. 🙏🙇‍♂️

This keeps happening.

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO

If the legacy media was doing its job and not sucking up to Trump, this would be a national scandal. “Republicans filed four more lawsuits to stop the counting of certain ballots in the Pennsylvania general election.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

They want to go back to an America before the civil rights movement "ruined everything." They want to kick out legal immigrants even if they became U.S. citizens decades ago. And they want to put women back where they think they belong. www.newschannel5.com/news/newscha...
