"The crowd again started shouting 'tax Elon,' 'tax the wealthy,” “tax the rich' and 'tax the billionaires.'" The county went 68% for Trump www.lagrandeobserver.com/news/local/r...

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

This is how it’s done.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

And so we move from “Did he really do it?” to “Is it really that bad?”

Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

This weasel actually insists it’s a “longstanding norm” that only the president or his attorney general can say “what the law is” which is, of course, absolute garbage.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

“MaYbe shE’s goiNg to be in TroUble nOw” Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start

In the three weeks Elon Musk has been in charge of unilaterally slashing government spending, the U.S. government has paid one of his companies, SpaceX, more than $43 million.

The air of insanity about all of this is starting to get to me.

Alexander Dugin, the Russian ultra-nationalist and Neo-fascist, tweets at Tulsi Gabbard after her confirmation and says “you are simply awesome.” Dugin, a close Putin ally, is often referred to as “Putin’s brain.”

New — CFPB employees received an ominous email from Russell Vought a few minutes ago. “Employees should stand down from performing any work task.” Full text:

"If the 'DOGE' endeavor is working, why can’t the White House just tell the truth about what it's doing?" www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Ha I love this 😇

Trump admin halts distribution of already-purchased TB drugs to patients who have started treatment. That is a recipe for creating drug-resistant strains of the leading infectious disease killer on Earth. bsky.app/profile/john...

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

FBI hearing has hit a snag. DOJ is unable to say whether anyone in the department has *already* disseminated to outsiders the info about FBI agents who worked on Jan. 6 case. DOJ lawyer says he doesn't "have reason to believe" that has happened but can't assure it.

“President Trump regards people who take their constitutional oath seriously as, by definition, his political enemies. His attack on public service is not about reform; it’s a first strike against a key obstacle to authoritarianism” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Is Musk is *just now* being made a “special government employee” just confirms how illegal this has all been!

Cardinal McElroy: “we are called always to have a sense of the dignity of every human person. And thus, - a wider indiscriminate massive deportation across the country would be something that would be incompatible with Catholic doctrine.” www.ncregister.com/news/cardina...

So to keep tabs, Trump hired a man to run defense whose former colleagues called him a falling down drunk (he denies it) and who paid a woman $50k for...he hasn't said but he's also denied sexually assaulting her or abusing one of his ex-wives. And he's hiring a former drug addict to run healthcare.

Wow! Here is a blast from the early 80’s🎵🎶 youtube.com/watch?v=x9za...

So it's Beer Kavanaugh all over again. Dems better be bringing a machete to these confirmation hearings.

Yup.

Billionaires have more money than they could ever need but never enough to fill the holes in their souls. They would send every last one of you into an early grave if it meant paying one cent less in taxes.
