If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

The complete failure of Republicans in Congress to exercise their power as a check on the executive branch is national disgrace. But the courts are doing their job and may yet protect democracy from Trump.

Well… today I have my first DOGE subcommittee hearing along with a Judiciary hearing, all while DC is snowed in! If I had normal coworkers & the country wasn’t going to hell lead by DOGE Douchebags, I’d say, “nothing to see here,” but something tells me, today is going to be pure insanity…

📌I was the managing editor at Stars and Stripes and can tell you that Pete Hegseth is the first SecDef I am aware of to be openly booed by military families on a military base. 📌This is the most significant pushback I have seen to this administration's racist, hostile initiatives.

Why aren’t we being given advice from Democratic Leaders? What can we do as citizens? Should we file complaints with our StateAttorney General? Give us something for gosh sakes! Because, “hold on, it’s going to get bad” isn’t cutting it.

I've emphasized the second, But the first is big! A US senator should walk over to Treasury w/a few reporters and an iPhone camera and a Lutheran pastor and demanding to see speak to Elon and "Big Balls" in person about what they're doing with payments.

It’s happening, people. Elon Musk’s hostile takeover of federal government infrastructure is now in progress. So who has Musk corralled to help him execute his plans? Musk has hired a bunch of “engineers” who are barely out of college. At least one may still be in school. Musk’s DOGE lackeys…

Whenever I post ideas for Dems what I hear is some Dems cheering it but many telling me all the reasons why it won't work. Their view is that "resistance is futile." That philosophy is self-defeating. Push those thoughts out of your head and instead focus on taking action.

Every one of these stories has the same common theme: when they explain why they voted for Trump it's always a quick nod to the prices for cover, then something selfish, never something for the good of the community. Then wide-eyed disbelief at how they were directly impacted by his actions.

Trump’s trade war is about to screw us twice. Higher prices on Canadian goods and anything made with them. Then, less demand for U.S. products in Canada. Now Trudeau is hitting back with $155B in tariffs on American goods. This isn’t “winning”—it’s self-sabotage. Good job Trump voters.

I think this is our future unless someone stops him. Musk’s plan for X has been for it to replace the entire banking system. His keen interest in seizing control of Treasury payments (and its tech) may forebode an intention to have such payments go through X www.theverge.com/2023/10/26/2...
