Ethel Rosenberg got the chair for doing a lot less damage to U.S. national security than Elon Musk has done this week

This is the bone that Elon threw Trump.

Okay, let's keep going. Got another one today looking at just how absolutely fucking crazy it is that an inexperienced Musk-lackey is apparently pushing untested live code to America's checkbook. Tried to contextualize all of it. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/05/a...

It’s a coup. That’s what’s happening. It doesn’t matter if it’s only been two weeks. Impeachable offenses aren’t like wine. They don’t need to age.

Yes. Finally, some meaningful pushback against these constitutional outlaws. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

“Now, as fears emerge Trump’s administration is ‘dangerously’ undermining the U.S. dollar, Musk has confirmed he wants to put the U.S. Treasury on a blockchain, the technology that underpins bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies—including Musk’s pet project dogecoin.” www.forbes.com/sites/digita...

Nearly 250,000 people in Berlin showed up to protest fascism and the Musk backed AfD party.

Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!

TONIGHT: Join us, @moveon.org, and @workingfamilies.org to talk about what comes next in our fight against Trump’s unconstitutional power grab and how you can make a difference. RSVP now: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Is this guy basically saying let’s bring back child labor? Unbelievable. But you know…billionaires need more money to spend on mega yachts. www.cnn.com/2025/01/28/p...

If you can go, go. 5pm today. Last night's cutoff of federal funding by 47 doesn't just mess with the recipients, it violates the Constitution and seizes powers that belong to Congress. It's a dictatorial attempt at consolidation of power in the presidency. www.mobilize.us/climateactio...

We will have victories and setbacks, good days and bad. We must understand that this will not be over in one election or with the defeat of any one candidate. This is the fight of our generation, and it will take time. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Firing independent watchdogs is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. Removes another obstacle to corruption and abuse of power www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Can someone please create a relationship graph that maps out the network of felons who will be serving in (or influencing) the Trump administration? Maybe flag the sex offenders with a different color just for fun.

Monica Crowley would be the 10th former Fox personality to serve in the second Trump administration.
