It’s simple. They’re going after the Department of Education to take money from your kids’ schools to give tax breaks to billionaires.

I care deeply about who Michigan will elect as Governor and send to the U.S. Senate next year, but I have decided against competing in either race. I wrote more here about my decision and how I view the work required of us all in this moment:

Families pinching pennies at the checkout are now losing federal support at their kids' schools because some billionaires in Washington want more tax breaks. Less help for you means more money for them.

If todays X outage is truly a cybersecurity issue, then let me draw your attention to Musk hijacking a two billion dollar FAA contract for himself with Starlink equipment that hasn’t been rigorously tested for cybersecurity concerns. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

For those asking, “Why don’t republicans push back?” Here’s your answer. Speak up, and MAGA/Elon will send the worst types of people on the internet after you. “…they are intimidated by the prospect of online attacks from Mr. Trump and Elon Musk… and frightened for the safety of their families.”

We need community now more than ever. Take some time to research a local group you might benefit from participating in. Maybe it's a local charity, a sports group, or volunteering with your local Democrats. This might mean stepping out of your comfort zone, but that might be just what we all need.

Pete Buttigieg had a powerful response to Trump's address last night: Trump works for his billionaire buddies, not for everyday Americans.

Dan Caine, Trump’s new replacement for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reportedly told Trump, “I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir.” He also put on a MAGA hat, despite it violating military protocol.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Exactly. Why do you think Republicans are complying? We get death threats just for tweeting. What do you think the people with power in Washington are going through? For starters, exile and primary challenger promises from Trump/WH and most likely violent threats from his supporters.
