Send Dems into rural America to talk about what Trump is doing. The Republicans are too scared and won’t show their faces…in the vacuum of messaging, there is power. Tell the folks who is hurting them. Point to the GOP. Be the foil to the shit that’s happening. Be the party of the people.

This is an excellent template and should be disseminated widely

Donald Trump's administration with a Republican Congress and Elon Musk intends to take our essential programs away. Let me be clear, that's going to affect your daily lives. Our state budget can't make up for the damage that's done if they succeed.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

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

If only America had something or someone to unite against…🤔

He who rambles on about Hannibal Lecter, Arnold Palmer’s dick size, windmill cancer, and turning Gaza into a real-estate play, and thinks he’s saving the county, should have his head examined.

Taking a mental health day. #breakingtrail

Cowards. Unfollowed @axios.com

Just despicable and disgraceful. The US government is now indistinguishable from the mafia.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

This is just one of thousands of harrowing stories told about the U.S. Government abandoning Americans abroad in the USAID shutdown. This is Benghazi times a million. 1/

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Paul Martin, the inspector general for the USAID, has been fired after resisting the administration. Just a day ago, his office released a report warning that staff reductions and spending freezes put hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars at risk of misuse and waste. This is the way.

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

More of this, America.

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

Do I have any followers who are or who know high school Civics educators? Please email me -- [email protected]. I am working on a piece about the disappearance of civics education in public schools and how it's leading to so many people being VERY unable to be literate citizens of democracy.

They're waking up.

There it is

FEDERAL WORKER AT A VIRGINIA TOWN HALL: “And to top it all off one of Musk’s top lieutenants and his wife and young child have shacked up on the 6th floor.” 🤔 Full: www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2r7Y3V7/

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.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has learned to play Trump like a fiddle. She says what he wants to hear so he feels flattered -- and backs down. Because he actually hates confrontations and tends to cave in any protracted negotiation. He's not a dealmaker. He's a toddler.

"Just one more thing. You say you're trying to save the government billions, yet you're taking $30B to blow up rockets indiscriminately. You have this crazy scheme where you pretend we're going to colonize Mars. To be perfectly frank with you, Mrs. Columbo thinks you're on drugs."

Putin is full out celebrating our idiocy.

I spoke with the owner of a small NY manufacturing firm. Most of his sales are exports. Biggest markets: Canada, China & Europe. He never thought Trump would actually impose tariffs; figured it was just campaign talk. If they go into effect, he fears he’ll have to lay off most of his 65 employees.

From Gridneff reporting for the NyTimes “In response to U.S. tariffs, the Canadian province of Ontario has announced that it is cancelling a contract with Starlink, the satellite-internet service controlled by Elon Musk. The contract was worth 100 million Canadian dollars, about $68 million.”
