This April 1st, once again, the political balance of the Wisconsin Supreme Court will be in the hands of voters – this time, Elon Musk has big money on the Republican-backed candidate – John Nichols @nicholsuprising.bsky.social reports on @thenation.com podcast bit.ly/434ebeK

Seriously….do this. Everywhere.

My open letter to Elon Musk.👇 Mr. Musk, You recently criticized me and another prominent lawyer fighting for the rule of law and democracy in the United States. I am used to being attacked for my work, particularly on the platform you own and dominate. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

MAGA Republicans really thought town halls would show the country that Americans are behind them. No 💕 Keep these clips coming our way! Hey MAGA: 2026 is coming. 🗳️ We’re voting you TF out.

I really like this piece. (Also I met Max some number of times when I was very small because my mom was in the same national organization he was in. I had coffee with him a few years ago and really appreciate him so much.)

Do this. Everywhere. www.ajc.com/politics/mcc...

Oh cool Trump just re-invented DARE.

Visit your local congressional office and tell them what kind of job you think they are doing.

He is out of his fucking mind.

The Gilded Age was a not awesome time for most Americans, just sayin’. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2BUxjb8/

This. This. This.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are now ordering the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop protecting consumers from unfair fees, fraud, and scams. They have cut off funding to the agency.

Idiocy. Criminal idiocy.

Trump wants an excuse to declare martial law very badly. It’s almost inevitable imho. He needs a plausible basis to suspend Habeus Corpus. #democracythread

There’s so much more @schumer.senate.gov + the Dems could do to stop the Trump/Musk coup. Use ALL of the procedural tools to obstruct & delay - just ask yourselves: WHAT WOULD MITCH MCCONNELL DO? Resist or Resign. We need fighters, not “bipartisanship” @indivisible.org @socialists.nyc

🚨 BREAKING: Illinois Governor JB Pritzker says he’s going to rename Lake Michigan to “Lake Illinois.” EPIC TRUMP TROLL!!! 🤣

If you are a public servant, or know one, this may be useful. A new organization, the Public Service Alliance, is offering advice on privacy and cybersecurity, physical safety, access to legal counsel and more. thepublicservicealliance.com/introducing-...

Republicans are the most un-republican people ever. Now they are either fascists or Neo- Monarchists….or both.

This week in Washington, Trump said we should take over Gaza and Musk shut down USAID. I've announced plans to introduce the ELON MUSK Act to fight back. Watch below: youtu.be/gJrptYrDtSA

This is really rich. These guys are two peas in a pod who simply can’t tell the truth. Tuberville just makes up a story about recruiting Mahomes and Trump lies about Tuberville being a “great coach.” www.al.com/news/2025/02...

Elon Musk is the fraud. #presidentmusk

I suppose the task force created by this EO will start by investigating the Vice President’s statements attacking Catholic bishops, the leader of DOGE accusing Lutheran Family Services of money laundering, ICE raids on churches … so much work already on anti-Christian bias from this administration.

Protests do work. If they are big. If they are sustained. If they increase in size and support. If they inspire further action.

NEW: Shortly after Pam Bondi was sworn in Wednesday, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger asked her to drop the Department of Justice’s lawsuit challenging the state’s 2021 voter suppression law, S.B. 202. I warned you, Raffensperger is no hero. He is a GOP vote suppressor.

Yesterday, a bankruptcy judge blew up the Alex Jones settlement with Sandy Hook families. That judge, Christopher Lopez, runs the country's true deep state: a bankruptcy court where corporations routinely wriggle free of accountability. Incredible report from Moe Tkacik: prospect.org/justice/2025...

FYI:

With the nation facing a public health crisis and economic impacts from this new variant, it's important to have leaders we can trust in the CDC (part of HHS) and USDA. Let's follow the science and save lives. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Senator Schiff (as Dems filibuster the nomination of Project 2025 author Russ Vought): “The moment you say it’s ok to violate the law to shut down USAID you have said it is ok to violate the law and shut down anything.”

please stop telling people that x, y, or z "is a distraction." we've been doing this for nearly a decade now. all the things are the things. theyre all the fights. its like arguing that japan attacking in the pacific was a distraction from hitler attacking in europe. its all the war.

It's kind of amazing that Musk and Silicon Valley summer-intern dude-bros thought they could totally pull off a takeover of tech-clueless Washington, and instead it's all being exposed by a Silicon Valley-oriented website, WIRED. Who saw this coming?

I can see it now. First you build hotels in Gaza. Then of course you go to the Ukraine. Find nothing but the best land and rebuild. .. You can train the staff at Mar a Lago ....

Resist dammit! #resist #resistance

A teen DOGE staffer recently given access to government systems worked at a startup known for hiring convicted hackers. Someone using a Telegram handle associated with him also solicited a cyberattack-for-hire service in 2022. All raising questions about his vetting. www.wired.com/story/edward...

We are going to see political investigations and prosecutions. The question is whether the public, the courts and the media will recognize and call them out as political. Will they stand up against them or will people stay silent and allow them to continue.

Hundreds people outside @schumer.senate.gov + Gillibrand’s office to tell them to obstruct, oppose, fight back against the Trump/Musk Coup! Chuck + Kirsten need to ask themselves What Would Mitch Do? (Hint: start w/ NOT voting for *any* MAGA noms) @indivisible.org @targetmajoritynyc.bsky.social

@ezralevin.bsky.social @leahgreenberg.bsky.social @indivisible.org @azindivisible.bsky.social Hey, Sen. Mark Kelly! Can you hear us now? SHUT IT ALL DOWN! AZ Indivisibles gather at Senator Mark Kelly’s office.

Elon Musk is the chink in Trump’s armor. Elon is going to inflict too much pain if he he is allowed to run amuck. #ElonMusk

If you want the politicians on “our side” to stop bending the knee, raise more hell. They need to feel the heat from the people.

Measles, mumps and rubella like this post.

Members of Congress were just denied entry to the Department of Treasury. This is a 5 alarm fire.

"Stop the Coup!" Scene at Treasury.

THANK YOU! This action is inspiring! @maxwellfrost.bsky.social @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Alright it's gonna be a hell of a day. Here's a duckling or a gosling to help you get through it ❤️🪶

Georgia Republicans propose a drastic voter suppression bill. If this is enacted, Georgia will be sued and it will lose.
