www.advocate.com/politics/ang... Good piece on Democrats' failure to get ahead of a story rather than reacting to Trump's lies.

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Did Trump cheat to win? Of course he did... Democracy denied youtu.be/3UiB3xwyfPQ?...

Thank you @chrismurphyct.bsky.social for standing up for USAID and standing up to Musk and Trump. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

@schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @warren.senate.gov @repjasmine.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov @pkryan.bsky.social @nytimes.com Wake up! www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Where are the defenders of the US as Elon and nameless private agents infiltrate US agencies, commandeer US servers, steal US data, seize US money, march US officials from US buildings? Who sallies forth from the FBI? The CIA? Congress? DoD? The media? This is a coup—and America appears defenseless.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @raskin.house.gov Why are you not taking action against Musk and his unvetted minions getting a hold of classified information? www.newsweek.com/usaid-chief-...

@aclu.org Possible to file a class action suit on behalf of Americans to stop Musk from obtaining our personal information from the Treasury Payment System?

Holy shit! Democrats, if you’re looking for a fighter, you found one— @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social for DNC Vice Chair.

One thing that blew my mind from this is the statement that Trump's blitz caught Democrats and activists flatfooted. What? We all knew that Project 2025 planned to overwhelm people with the pace of the destruction and we had from November to January to prepare. link.propublica.net/view/61c5e5d...

@raskin.house.gov Why are the Democrats allowing unelected Musk control over the government? Are our elected officials going to just roll over for Musk?

Instead of lowering prices, the Trump Administration is disrupting the work of researchers who are studying life-saving medicines and treatments.

Today in @democrats-judiciary.house.gov I played a little game with Donald Trump's lies on immigration: Rhetoric or Reality? Let's all play along!

Musk: Does a Nazi salute, twice Neo-Nazis: Those were Nazi salutes! Holocaust Scholars: Those were definitely Nazi salutes! Literally Everyone Who Saw It: WTF those were Nazi salutes! ADL: What awkward gestures.¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Anyways the real antisemitism is believing Palestinians should have a State

Migrants in Ciudad Juárez who were waiting for their 1 pm CBP1 parole appointments learned 20 minutes ago that the app has shut down & those appointments are no longer valid.

This is brilliant!! 😂✊🏼

Thank you President Biden

Today’s episode of The Ezra Klein Show. The political scientist Erica Frantz describes the regime change the second Trump Administration represents. open.spotify.com/episode/3TPI... youtu.be/fP77tAIkRvA?...

Five alarm fire in North Carolina, where right-wing GOP majority on State Supreme Court just blocked certification of Democratic Justice Allison Riggs’ victory & appears to be laying groundwork to overturn the election www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

In a sign of respect, every President, Vice President and First Lady put their hands over their hearts as President Carter’s casket moved past — except for one. You can guess who. Such disrespect! 🤬

Kudos to @anntelnaes.bsky.social

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed. The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

Mistake us for invisible and find out.

After the 2016 election, House Republicans enjoyed a 47-seat majority. After this election, the GOP is facing the smallest House majority in almost a century. Our organizing can limit Trump’s damage to our democracy: indivisible.org/guide

I have covered both Musk and Alex a lot, and only one of them is a useful idiot for Putin and also a heinous person. The other is a patriot who did his job with distinction and is a very good man. Guess which is which: thehill.com/policy/techn...
