Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota. But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

I look forward to a day when even people I’d spit on for sport get low cost or even free insulin because I hate pointless deaths under capitalism.

These are brown shirts, and this is Nazi behavior. We are not in a fight between right and left anymore. This is a fight between Americans and those who would bend the knee to a king. If you care about the soul of this country, we have to stand for each other.

The anti-Trump/Musk rally at the RI State House had a visit from a dozen or so members of a white supremacist hate group.

Over 2000 people chant “Tax the Rich!” outside the RI State House.

Let's say their names: * General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK * Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE * Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE All replaced by less qualified white guys.

🚨 Trump’s DOGE purge just made Veterans’ data a massive target. They fired key cybersecurity staff protecting VA.gov —leaving millions of Veterans’ medical & personal records exposed. This isn’t efficiency. It’s reckless and dangerous.

We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle. We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle. We set up a concentration camp for asylum seekers in the Panama jungle.

Today is National Day of Remembrance for the 120,000 Japanese Americans who were put into internment/concentration camps by an Executive Order. This is a very real part of US history, and I can only hope that we never repeat it again, but it feels, more than before, a real possibility again.

Department of Education FAFSA changes are open for public comment. The changes include requiring trans students to misgender themselves and removes the nonbinary option on forms. Note: comment period is 60 days, and comments are publicly visible. Form here: www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

Protest planned for Saturday

ATTENTION FEDS Judge Chutkin won't block Musk's federal worker firings because "'possibility' that defendants may take actions that irreparably harm plaintiffs is not enough" Attorneys are asking us for evidence of harm. If you have evidence contact the tipline asap. We'll provide an email address

RFK's not-so-veiled threat to take mental health drugs away is even worse than it looks at first blush. He wants to replace these medications with labor camps. This fits with the larger, eugenics-informed Trump/Musk agenda. www.salon.com/2025/02/19/r...

I want everyone to just take FIVE MINUTES, and take a look at this extremely well put together project 2025 tracker. www.project2025.observer We're less than a month in.

you'd think saying "we're going to take Black kids away from their parents and isolate them in camps" would be a statement that disqualifies anyone from public office but, alas, the Democrats

HE SAID HE WAS ABOVE THE LAW YOU FUCKING COWARDS

I’m begging Democrats to stop talking about tax breaks for billionaires and the price of eggs! They are firing Air Traffic Controllers, stranding Americans in hostile countries, and getting ready to download our data from the IRS. No one is sitting around thinking “I’m worried about the deficit!”

🚨Call Sen. Chapman and tell her not to run SB 299 today: 304-357-7918🚨 SB 299 threatens to take away access to gender-affirming care for minors in West Virginia. This care is essential and lifesaving - politicians have no place in the doctor’s office. www.wvlegislature.gov/Bill_Text_HT...

Dear Democratic Party: why are you not screaming this from every rooftop? Why are you not holding press conferences with these poor fired people - putting a face on what the richest man is destroying?

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

International students aren't typically eligible for financial aid. Which means that even if they make up a small share of students (~10% at most big state schools; more than that at many private schools), they generate a much bigger share of tuition revenue. Which makes losing them a serious risk.

This week, approximately 200,000 federal workers have been let go.

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Note: In 2024 alone, Musk’s enterprises were awarded approximately $3 billion across nearly 100 federal contracts, averaging about $8 million per day.

We have a Saturday night massacre. We have a Benghazi. We have tensions with Canada. The richest man on earth controls the government. We have a new Russiagate. We have a drunk running the military. We have a VP in league with neo-Nazis. Dems: “Keep your powder dry. He’ll screw up any day now.”

This for flu and every vaccine you can get covered. Do it, and do it now. You want all the immunity and residual immunity you can get going into what's likely coming.

SCOOP: Inside DOGE's takeover of CFPB What went down over the past five days based on emails and other documents and interviews W/ @reporterev.bsky.social www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Reminder that the RFK vote is LOOMING. Please call your reps, especially if they are Rs. It matters. "Hi, I'm [full name + spelling] calling from [Zip Code], and I'm [Name's] constituent. I am demanding that [NAME] votes no on RFK. He is dangerous, anti-science, and anti-vaccine. He will do harm."

Join @indivisible.org, @moveon.org, @boldprogressives.org, and more tomorrow at the Consumer Financial Protect Bureau at 4:15pm with @warren.senate.gov to expose President Musk and Kennedy Center Chairman Trump's latest billionaire grift. RSVP: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

He entered the US legally.

Ain't good. Compared to Senate Dems, House Dems have less leverage. One exception is the budget fight. But here's the Dem House Leader TODAY declining to use that leverage. If you have a Dem rep, ask them to use their leverage. And tell them to tell Jeffries to lead. Stay tuned - more to come.

Trump's CFPB, now under the command of billionaire hedge fund manager Scott Bessent, has halted the Biden admin's rule to ban medical bills from credit reports. It's been estimated that the rule would help improve the credit scores of 15 million people. Some populist, huh?

Headed into the weekend, a gentle reminder that this whirlwind is specifically designed to make us feel exhausted, overwhelmed, resigned, & sapped of energy, and that it is more important now than ever to connect with your community. Hug your family, check on your friends, walk in your neighborhood.
