Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

In 2021, Pennsylvania GOP's Sean Parnell’s then-estranged wife testified he repeatedly abused her & their young kids, verbally & in occasional fits of violence. “He tried to choke me out on a couch" & once forced her out of a car & told her "go get an abortion." Trump made him Pentagon Spokesman.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?

Statement from Senator Elizabeth Warren: “Vought is giving big banks and giant corporations the green light to scam families. The CFPB has returned over $21 billion to families cheated by Wall Street. Republicans have failed to gut it in Congress and in the courts. They will fail again.”

I was one of those warning how bad it would be and how Trump 2 would be much worse than anyone complacently assumed. But even I didn’t have ‘cancel all foreign aid, including to kids with HIV & malaria’ and also ‘let the world’s richest man get access to our private data’ on my 2025 bingo card.

Far too many people mistake petty stuff like this for strength. Instead of what it obviously is—the action of weak, small, insecure men who recoil when faced with actual integrity. They know, deep down, guys like Milley are everything they aren’t.

Trump deported 200 Colombians. None were criminals. It's critical that we publicize this and counteract the propaganda.

Trump rescinded Biden's Executive Order to lower prescription drug costs for Americans, which will be devastating for tens of millions of people. We need to stay focused on issues like that—not on the shiny, offensive distractions like Elon's weird salute.

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM. I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

Once again, Will Bunch gets it. Running to the middle of the road gets Democrats nowhere. As the inimitable Jim Hightower once put it, there's nothing in the middle of the road but yellow stripes and dead armadillos.

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed. The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

Biden's NLRB has made it easier for workers to unionize and cracked down on anti-union practices like captive audience meetings. Like his first term, Trump's NLRB will likely be staffed with union-busting hacks who will reverse these gains. Who's really on the side of workers?
