Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

According to Bloomberg, "Musk’s X is in talks with investors to raise fresh equity capital at the $44 billion valuation." This is the time to sink him. Get off of Twitter. Stop posting on Twitter, at least temporarily. Sink his effort to raise new capital. Hurt him where it matters.

This is more like it.

“Once, I swallowed my pride to offer him what he values the most—public praise on the Sunday news shows……Going along to get along does not work.” - Gov. JB Pritzker

Just saw the head of the Kansas Farmer's Union on tv the other night, complaining about how Trump was screwing up the farmers. He literally said, "This was all in Project 2025. I guess we should have been paying more attention."

Look closely.
