Is this actually reported anywhere, or if it’s from personal sources, could they shed a bit more light on what’s going on? Asking because this is very specifically breaking a “promise” made to Cassidy in exchange for his vote. Would like confirmation so we can bring the #resistance đŸ”„

Target & Walmart? Easy to drop. But Amazon? Bought a book & my choices were: 1. Amazon: $12 next day free delivery or straight to my kindle 2. Local store #1: $16 + $9 shipping + 2 week wait 3. Local store #2: $15 + $12 shipping + 5-6 day wait 4. B&N: $17 + $6 shipping + 2 day wait Choice?

It’s never not a good day to punch a nazi I wish I could have this on repeat every morning when I first open my phone

Got it! That makes more sense. Thanks for clarifying. Carry on! It’s never a not a good time to mock fascists!

I don’t see: Per ruling denying Elon & his minions access to government systems, physically remove them from the Treasury and OPM Introducing new legislation, writing letters, and even lawsuit judgements don’t mean, and aren’t going to do, jack shit if THEY are still in the building
comment in response to post
This is great news! AND how is it being enforced? They are still in the building so I doubt this piece of paper is going to stop anything they’re doing Who has the power to physically remove them and when are they going to do it?

Amazing! Now do all the other major journals So infuriating that this even needs to be said
comment in response to post
This story is soooooo old! This has been well known for years. This is traditional media trying to look like they’re doing hard-hitting journalism to distract from the fact that they’re refusing to cover the actual story: We are in the midst of a constitutional crisis and a silent coup

It’s a troll bot. Not worth engaging with.

So much for the reporting that Elon and his minions had “read only” access
comment in response to post
I am one of your new subscribers Thank you for keeping us informed during this turbulent time Your coverage is a lifeline at a time when traditional media is twisting themselves up in knots trying to normalize a constitutional crisis and a silent coup Thank You

You should have retired when Obama asked you to Yes, your voice had great impact But guess what? Your ego had an even bigger impact; it left us with the Supreme Court we have today The same Supreme Court that overturned Roe and gave the President unprecedented immunized status

Please rally your fellow service members I can’t imagine they’re feeling any different from you, but if they are, remind them of their oath I’m sorry this falls to you I’m sorry I even have to ask you We need voices coming from every corner

Thank you. We need our doctors and health providers to speak up during this terrible time. As a patient of CoRE I can’t tell you how much your words matter.

Where are the people in Michigan who voted for Trump or sat out the election? Your silence is deafening Hope you enjoyed your little Pyrrhic victory How’s it feel to be responsible for wiping Gaza off the map? Because this is on you This rolls up straight to your doorstep
comment in response to post
This would be a lot more meaningful if you hadn’t voted for Kristi Noem. I understand your reasons but this whole “get along to go along” time is over. Democracy is on the line! You need to do much more than just a couple minutes in front of USAID.
comment in response to post
Legislation is not going to cut it, @schumer.senate.gov! Or are you delusional enough to believe that republicans would work with you??? Wake up! Your whole “get along to go along” attitude is gonna lose us our democracy.

@marcelias.bsky.social Serious question for you: would it be possible to bring the biggest class action lawsuit in history against Trump and Musk for illegally accessing our personal information, transporting it out of the building without permission, endangering our federal payments, etc
?

Can you share more information on this?
comment in response to post
I get it. That’s what was going through my mind when I posted it. So many families torn apart by unchecked, irrational devotion to the black hole of hate, nihilism, lies, grift know as Trump. Stay strong! You and me, we’re not alone, even if it feels that way sometimes.

Thank you! It feels like we’re wrapped in an orange, sticky cocoon of MAGAts, grift, misinformation, and a budding oligarchy, and no one can hear those of us who voted for sanity scream. I can’t tell you how good it feels to get a signal of support from the outside.

When stories about the Treasury tug-of-war started to come out, I told my usually well-informed, resister husband about it He looked at me as if I’d told him Elvis was at the door Why is it so hard to break through? Every Dem should be on the every horn screaming bloody murder! Why aren’t they?

@georgetakei.bsky.social I think you meant your list for Canadians Americans buying these Canadian products will be paying the tariffs Unfortunately I think this means Americans should stick to the “avoid” column even though the Canadian products look so much better (looking at you Green Beaver!)
comment in response to post
You should have won. We don’t need a party insider who’s “next in line” and who wants an analysis of whether Biden would have won at a time when our democratic institutions are being ripped apart. We need a fighter like you!
comment in response to post
So far you’re on track to leave them no future! Why aren’t you in DC during this coup? Where is the blue wall? Why are you standing by doing nothing while our constitution and democracy are under attack? Or perhaps you think it’s perfectly normal that Elon now controls our treasury? Wake up!!!

UAW tried with Trinity in the 90s & early aughts. Benefits were generous and largely controlled by the UAW. I believe it failed or had to merge in the 2010s when they weren’t able to manage rising costs. Solution: Union sponsored or managed NP with a “closed”system to optimize care and costs.

You’re a day late and a dollar short. 🙄 That should have been the message in December. You’re a party insider, so you’re gonna have to prove to us that you’re as good or better at fighting than the guy you beat.

I spent my HS years in South Texas. Every year since I was 13 (I’m GenX) I’ve given money to the local food bank, clothing charities, and church benefits even though I haven’t lived there in decades No more I refuse to give any aid and comfort to MAGAts. Let their orange messiah come save them.

What you’re doing is commendable. The Dems should be helping you & others create these restored sites e.g., DoJ, DoH, FBI, HHS, etc @booker.senate.gov, @aoc.bsky.social, @schumer.senate.gov, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, Statements are meaningless. Help us preserve our vital information!

How about this, @corybooker.com, instead of PowerPoints about tweets &TickToks, Dems should be sponsoring or creating private websites that restore the sites Trump is gutting: Alt-CDC, Alt-HHS, Alt-FBI, etc
 This should have been ready Day 1; we knew this would happen. But it can still be done!
