Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

If we gave Elon a pager would he take it!?

ATTN HHS EMPLOYEES: Firing notices are going out. I am in receipt of an email saying they will revoke your access as soon as you read the email that you've been fired. Please download everything you need before you open that email. SHARE FAR & WIDE. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/attn-hhs-e...

We’re done here. Right?

this is the sort of thing you post when you’re ramping up to defying lawful court orders

I’m reading about the fall of the Roman Empire. The self-dealing, the faux populism that was really all about self, the appeal of amoral rulers who pettily ridiculed opponents personally, but were liked because they were β€œfunny” [Caligula] all mirror current Trump America. It is frightening.

John Fetterman: β€œAfter considering what’s at stake, I have voted against moving forward to the confirmation of Ms. Gabbard and Mr. Kennedy, and will be voting NO on their confirmations.”

😬

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.

We can all use a little emotional support right now.

So............ I have to teach about the U.S. Constitution today to an introductory level class. How on earth am I supposed to pretend everything is just working normally? Answer: I'm not going to pretend. I'm telling it like it is.

Senate Democrats are considering voting NO or delaying every Trump nominee as retaliation for his overreach on ending USAID. Smash the RT if you SUPPORT this plan. ZERO votes from Democrats!!

We all need some comfort to recharge.

Agreed.

NEW: I'm hearing from federal employees that they're being told to file a FOIA request if they want their employee records. Meaning they've been locked out of their records and have to file a Freedom of Information Act Request to get them. If you got this email, please contact me. Signal in bio.

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

Union lawsuit against unauthorized DOGE infiltration of Treasury Dept payment systems, filed today storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If the Treasury Secretary does not remove DOGE’s access to the Treasury payment systems at once: Congress must immediately act. That is why Rep. Jeffries and I will work together on legislation to stop unlawful meddling in the Treasury Department’s payment systems.

These are the clowns Congress refuses to stop.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

To any country concerned about America caving to fascism, You can help us. Start with 50% tariffs on all Tesla products. Ps: I would add Trump products, but I assume nobody in your country would buy shitty Trump products.

Ken Martin is officially the new Chair of the Democratic National Committee. If you don’t know him yet, you’re about to. Because this isn’t going to be politics as usual. I know Ken. I’ve worked with Ken. And I can tell you right nowβ€”this man is a fighter.

#FAFO They'll get what they voted for.

Ive said this before. Unions have a moment in time to create parallel, Non Profit Trust or Associated Health Plans and offer them to small to medium size businesses. Unions can negotiate far better than SMBs or associations . Imagine if millions got their healthcare from unions ? Thoughts ?
