Whether you changed your name because you got married or any other reason, the SAVE Act could keep you and millions of others from being able to vote. Tell Congress: Protect our democracy and reject this dangerous bill.

This really tells you all you need to know. They claim to support vets, and they know how to play the game with messaging and symbolism to exploit their patriotism, but every once in a while the mask slips and you see that they really think we’re just suckers and losers. bsky.app/profile/atru...

The EEOC filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk's company, Tesla, alleging it allowed "severe racial harassment" of Black employees including “frequent direct verbal racial attacks” and the “constant presence of racist graffiti evocative of lynchings.” Every story about these cuts should say that.

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

I’ve been suggesting on TV and podcasts—without actual evidence(!)—that it may turn out that DOJ will wind up not having enough lawyers to defend all the lawsuits challenging this administration’s illegal conduct. Turns out it seems already to be true. 👉

Why do a third of Republicans think there's a constitutional crisis? Because a lot of them think that courts holding Trump in check — the only remaining check — are somehow illegitimate. Gift link: wapo.st/42Nuyfu

The best way to fight back against Musk: Don’t buy a Tesla. (And if you own one, sell it.) The company was already in a precarious position before Musk launched his assault on democracy. A Tesla boycott would be devastating – and richly deserved. Me, in Slate 🧵

This is a choice the establishment press will have to make in ways large & small - whether to be an organ of propaganda in to preserve direct access to propagandists and liars or to be an independent source of reported information about reality that follows the facts and that it’s audience can trust

One reason Musk might be so driven to shut down USAID? The agency's inspector general opened a probe into Starlink last year. Now the Trump administration says Musk will self-determine his conflicts of interest. Hello?
