Can we move past the idea that trump has any interest in lowering costs or improving our lives in any way? That BS he spouted was just to get him elected. Now that he’s there his plan is to dismantle the government in order to pocket our money and remain in power. Time to march for democracy.

We have a confused, idiotic drug addict, who wears sunglasses on TV to hide the fact that his eyes are wildly dilated, deciding how our government should work now because his boss is too incompetent to do the job himself.

1. Called my rep and both senators. 2. Read and listened to multiple independent journalists to stay informed. 3. Engaged with BlueSky to learn and share ideas for resistance. 4. Called my rep and senators again. 5. Made fun of musk and trump every chance I had.

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

A side effect of ketamine use is abnormal eye movements which users often hide by wearing sunglasses even while indoors.

@robertgarcia.bsky.social called Musk a dick (he is). But the DOJ is claiming he threatened Musk by saying "What the American public wants is for us to bring actual weapons to this bar fight”. Does the DOJ not understand the English language? Not a threat. Truth. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Kash Patel as head of the FBI is the cherry on top of the repressive government.

It’s not just Oregon and not just blue states. Everything Trump and musk have done leaves all of us more vulnerable to natural disasters, disease, domestic and foreign terrorism, poverty, homelessness and death. First we call our representatives. Then mass protests. www.opb.org/article/2025...

Trump and musk are stealing from us in order to give themselves and their billionaire friends a huge tax break. They are abandoning Ukraine and our European allies to please Putin. If you have a republican senator or representative, call and tell them it’s time to end this heist. (202) 224-3121

Illinois Governor Pritzker gets it! 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

So glad trump has brought back worldwide respect for the U.S., made is feel safer and lifted that sagging Biden economy. So much winning.

If you refuse to do the right thing because you fear your ‘leader’, then you need to step down and let someone else with more courage take your place.

Trump can't end birthright citizenship, appeal court says, setting up Supreme Court showdown. www.cnn.com/2025/02/19/p...

"Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage." -- @govpritzker.illinois.gov

Trump is weak. He is owned by Putin who helped him steal the 2016 election and most likely has compromising information on him. He is owned by musk and other oligarchs whom he needs financially. He wants to gift Putin Ukraine. He wants to gift oligarchs a massive tax break at our expense.

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

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Like they accidentally fired nuclear arsenal workers. That’s what happens when you just blatantly fire people without even knowing what they do. This would be funny if it weren’t so damn dangerous. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Why the fuk doos the musk/trump regime need access to social security or IRS information? This is not about efficiency.

I don’t think he will resign. That would mean he can’t do trump’s bidding and so would again be facing prosecution. But where is the governor? She can end this chaos now by removing him

This morning I heard an ABC “news” anchor refer to the “overhaul of the federal government”. REALLY ? That’s how you refer to what’s going on? MSM is complicit in the takeover of the government by a group of billionaires who are hungry for more money at your expense.

Trump and Musk have been firing thousands of government workers in the name of reducing waste and fraud. Can someone point me to any evidence of fraud?

A shortage of air traffic controllers already exists and Trump is firing more of them - without cause. Have to get those costs down so that the billionaires can get another tax cut. People will die so they can get richer. www.huffpost.com/entry/doge-f...

Here’s a thought - maybe corporate owned (trump owned) media could show some juevos and report on the seriousness of an oligarchy tearing the government apart and harming its citizens. Maybe show some urgency. Where is your outrage at what’s happening? www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...

Journalists are getting the story out, activists are staging protests, courts are weighing in. The Democrats need to tie it all together in high profile daily briefings for the entire country. My latest on the urgent need for a counter narrative to Trump/Musk. ⤵️ open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

Yes. Show the people who have lost jobs. People struggling with the high cost of living. Veterans fearful of losing healthcare. People worried about their stolen personal and financial information. @wyden.senate.gov @repvalhoyle.bsky.social

Arizona AG Mayes says FOTUS actions are an ongoing coup... thank you for speaking out against FOTUS and his fkn mafia! 👏👏👇👏👏

The devil is in the details but this is a much more reasonable plan than trump’s ethnic cleansing and plans to profit for himself and his billionaire friends.

This is not addressing immigration. It’s just blatant cruelty, hate and racism. If the nazis really wanted to address immigration they’d be working to fix the process not deporting hardworking members of the community because they don’t like the color of their skin. www.jsonline.com/story/news/l...

WWWC do? What would Walter Cronkite do? There was a time when Walter was “the most trusted man in America”. Pulled no punches. He caused Lyndon Johnson to change the course of the Vietnam war simply by voicing his honest opinion. Do we have a Walter Cronkite today ?

“What lies on the other end of those phone calls isn’t a burden, it’s an opportunity. Grow up, get over yourselves, and get back in the game.”

“Teachers were worried that they would be seen as signs of Black, Japanese and gay culture”. This is bullshit. Tubman is history. Pride is not hurting anyone. Origami is offensive? History doesn’t change just because trump doesn’t like it. Stand up to bigotry. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/w...

Sounds a bit like treason. If only we had a legitimate DOJ. newrepublic.com/post/191580/... via @newrepublic.com

Justice Dept lawyers are showing other public servants, members of Congress and the public - not to mention quivering media moguls - what it means to be a citizen of a democracy. You do not bend the knee nor kiss the ring of tyrants.

The lawsuit, filed in Washington, D.C., says the actions taken by Musk at the helm of DOGE can only be taken by a nominated and Senate-confirmed official.

Congratulations America! You have given the keys to a madman. Well guess what? We the People will resist the madness! #Resist

The U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York and the two officials from the public integrity unit showing more courage and resolve than Republicans and some Democrats.

Mitch McConnell is as responsible as anyone for the mess we are in. And what did he get for his efforts? Not even a gulf named after him.

They are cutting funding, not because they found fraud (they didn’t), but because they want to use those funds to give the billionaires and oligarchs a tax cut. People will die as a result. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Elon Musk’s Tesla will receive one of the largest government contracts in 2025 to produce armored vehicles.
