The United States now playing the role that communist satellite states once played in the UN: sponsoring resolutions in its own name but on behalf of Moscow.

Monitors at the Washington, D.C., headquarters of the Department of Housing and Urban Development briefly displayed a fake, AI-generated video depicting President Trump sucking the toes of Elon Musk.

Kamala Harris delivers an inspiring and uplifting message as she accepts the prestigious Chairman's Award at the NAACP Image Awards. Her powerful words highlight her ongoing commitment to equality, justice, and progress. 🥰💙

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

As Trump makes concessions to Russia, he is showing weakness on a level unprecedented in modern US history. His position is so weak that it is unlikely to convince anyone. Trump is a sheep in wolf’s clothing. The wolves can tell the difference "The Weak Strongman" snyder.substack.com/p/the-weak-s...

Marco Rubio's collaboration with Russia's Sergei Lavrov and Putin is one of the most disgusting acts of betrayal to democracy and our nation. Rubio has secured his place in history of infamy.

Elon Musk has now set his sights on the U.S. gold reserves at Fort Knox, insisting on personally ensuring the gold remains intact. The vault was last opened to journalists and a congressional delegation in 1974.

After we let Russia occupy part of your country and steal your resources, we will occupy the other part and do the same. Quite the starting point for the Americans.

Washington, D.C. yesterday. "Shut down the Senate, Shut down the Senate." Chanted for hours. More massive #USprotests, ongoing. Sources here report, "Millions of people are getting ready as we speak to take this country back and save the USA. Their days are numbered. Stay tuned." #3E

Of course it’s a coup. Miss the obvious, lose your republic. open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.

Good morning be the change be the light eat some chocolate 🔥

Millions of Americans rely on these systems for Social Security checks, Medicare benefits, federal salaries, grants, and tax refunds. Now they appear to be in the hands of an unelected billionaire & an unknown number of his unqualified flunkies. Extraordinarily dangerous.

Today is the feast of St Brigid. According to legend, Brigid met a nun in 7th century Ireland who had broken her vow of chastity and become pregnant. St Brigid performed a miracle when she laid hands on the woman, prayed, and induced an abortion.

An unelected billionaire, with no actual Congressional authority or govt experience, has access to Treasury payment systems and sensitive information about millions of Americans who receive Social Security checks, tax refunds, and other payments. What could go wrong? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...
