We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

This should concern you more than any executive order so far. www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/fe...

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

This is fascism.

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

Time to repost this No one elected MUSK

It’s sad on the eve of Presidents Day it’s appropriate to have to post this.

This one weird trick could save the American people $8 million a day in perpetuity: cancel all government contracts with Elon Musk

Why is Trump the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl? Because all the presidents before him realized it would be extraordinarily wasteful to spend 15-20 MILLION of our taxpayer dollars to go in person.

💥💥Closing down the agencies that were investigating him… WHY is this guy still loose??

Fly Eagles fly!!I LOVE that he picked KC!!! #ettd

Xnay on TMobileay!

Yay! Aren't we lucky?! Golden Books gets it right, again!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Listen! 🎧

April 1st’s special elections in Florida (2) & then later in New York (1), can swing control back to the Democrats (215 to 218). Anyone in Florida’s 1st & 6th districts, get the word out. We can take back the house with the purse strings & shut all MAGA actions down. #voteblue #demcast #resist

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

DO IT! It matters.

Developing: Proposed tariffs on Canada have been paused for 30 days. PM Trudeau has agreed to stop taking calls from Melania.

FYI: it’s not about drugs… Donnie is carrying out Vlad’s plans. 🇷🇺🪆

At what point do we start calling what Elon Musk is doing inside our government a coup

FYI: if I ever stop making podcasts without first telling you I’m going to stop, it’s because someone else stopped me.

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

The fact that Donald Trump signed papers that will make things more unaffordable for most Americans from a private club unaffordable to most Americans was too perfect to be intentional.

THIS has always been his strategy & the GOP played their part as he predicted they would. Way to go REPUBLICANS. You deserve this - the rest of us DO NOT!

Just remember there are people in red states that didn’t want this and are trapped and scared and hate this much more than you do. 🔵

People threw away 250 years of American Democracy for a clown in orange makeup.

This. Senate needs to put the brakes on all nominees until Trump recognizes the Constitutionally defined role of the Congress and steps from trying to ignore/negate/obliterate it.

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

There’s no bottom. Less than two hours after the plane crash in Philadelphia—and just 48 hours after the deadly midair collision in D.C.—the Grifter-in-Chief took to Truth Social to pump his shitcoin scam. Absolutely disgusting.

Elon Musk is locking government employees out of government systems and demanding access to the government's entire payment network. This is not legal, of course. www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

"Billionaire Elon Musk spent at least $288 million to help elect President Donald Trump and other Republican candidates, according to a Washington Post analysis of new Federal Election Commission filings that offered an end-of-year snapshot of what was spent during the 2024 election cycle."
