It's a Christian nationalist coup. Trump fired the Joint Chiefs chair, Gen. Charles Brown Jr. -- a four-star fighter pilot, and the second African American to hold the job. Trump replaced him with MAGA Gen. Dan "Raizin'" Caine. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

Republicans are embracing full on fascism. Nazi salutes, siding with murderous dictators, trash talking our allies, promoting hate, racist ideology, and bigotry, as well as, gaslighting Americans 24/7. In 30 days Trump & Republicans have managed to tank America’s reputation. The world hates us.

In the past week, we had Hegseth giving away key concessions before talks even began, Rubio in Saudi Arabia negotiating with Russia without Ukraine at the table, and Trump blaming Ukraine for Russia’s invasion. Putin couldn’t have written this pro-Russia script better himself.

NEW: Last week’s newsletter had ‘IT’S A COUP’ in big red letters on front page of NYT. Well, guess what? It still is. We have to stop framing what’s happening as in any way normal.

The FT reports that Trump is working hard to bring the Tates (alleged human traffickers and rapists) back to the US. Hardly surprising then that teen DOGE engineer Edward "Big Balls" Coristine subscribed to Tate's online forum, as we reported last month www.wired.com/story/edward...

“We’re going to find billions, hundreds of millions of dollars of fraud and abuse.” — Donald Trump So, let’s have Elon and his team of hackers dig through everyone’s secret data to “fix” the problem. There’s a reason he’s using hackers instead of data analysts and experts in the field.

With Trump declaring himself above the law and Musk calling for jailing journos, there's a big risk voters get acclimated to this kind of authoritarian talk and come to see it as normal. Another reason Dems must step up now. My exchange w/Steve Levitsky on this: newrepublic.com/article/1916...

Trump hands Musk the state’s gears. DOGE slashes jobs, leaks data, pries into taxes. Power privatized, accountability gutted. Cost-cutting masks control. Each day, dictatorship creeps in. American democracy is under siege by a criminal mafia.

Elon Musk posted these two tweets the same day, just hours apart. Don’t sugarcoat it — he’s not just a far-right authoritarian, he’s an outright fascist. Musk isn’t even trying to hide his true intentions at this point. STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR HIM.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Just a reminder...it's been said before, but it's worth repeating, for those in the back... Pretty much everything the new regime 'accuses' others of, is, in ACTUALITY, a CONFESSion of something the regime ITSELF has already done, are currently doing, or plan to do in the future.
