9/29/2023— General Milley farewell speech: “We don’t take an oath to a tribe, we don't take an oath to a religion, we don't take an oath to a king or queen, or a tyrant, or a dictator, and we don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator.” Never forget our country and Constitution come before any man.

New from 404 Media: the Signal clone the Trump administration uses was just hacked. TeleMessage makes a modified version of Signal that archives messages for government agencies, Waltz used it.

A phenomenal new book from @katherinestewart.bsky.social details how the American far-right has congealed into the greatest threat American democracy has faced in 160 years—and the billionaire backers funding the entire effort. My review for @newrepublic.com: newrepublic.com/article/1934...

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

You lost your 401k... and did Trump make money doing it? He posted "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!" just hours before pausing the tariffs. It's time for everyone to ask House Republicans why they aren't fighting for an investigation into this.

Folks always ask me how they can make a difference. Find an elderly person who isn’t tech savvy. Help them confirm their Social Security information online. Starting March 31, phone verification will no longer be allowed for Social Security benefits, and in person will be slower as offices close.

Meanwhile, here on planet Earth, POTUS has no authority to void a presidential pardon. Pardons are final and legally binding once issued. His base will love this tweet, but it’s completely pointless and unenforceable.

This was always the math - it didn’t need a CBO scoring for people to realize this, but hopefully now they’ll wake up. The GOP is going after Medicaid and Medicare to give their rich friends a tax cut. Full stop.

In today’s hellscape news, the Trump administration is planning to cut 80,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA is already short-staffed and wait times are abhorrent. Veterans will die because of this move.

I've noted some of the procedural things Democrats could be doing in Congress, but this point from @edgeofsports.bsky.social's great piece in the Nation deserves emphasis. This is basic politics, and it's baffling that every Democrat isn't doing it every day. www.thenation.com/article/poli...
