(AP) — Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team is eliminating jobs at the vehicle safety agency that oversees Tesla and has launched investigations into deadly crashes involving his company’s cars. #OligarchEra 🇺🇸 apnews.com/article/musk...

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Potentially a favorable competitive backdrop emerging for a #SherrodBrown candidacy if he's so inclined ... #Ohio

General Charles Q. Brown Jr., Faithfully and Honorably served the Constitution and The People of the US for 41-years in the USAF. His last posting was as the 21st Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was unjustly fired by the dangerously unqualified SECDEF. I proudly stand with Gen. Brown.

@kenmartin.bsky.social Solid performance just now on #TheWeekend. Especially the commitment to rebuild the #DemocraticParty in places like Texas. Well done! There remains an enormous market for the ideas Democrats espouse. It just remains a task of reaching those millions of reachable voters. #DNC

The proposed U.S. draft mourns “the tragic loss of life throughout the Russia- #Ukraine conflict,” calls for a swift end to the war, & urges a lasting peace. But it fails to mention territory occupied by #Russia & doesn't single out Moscow as the source of the conflict. www.rferl.org/a/ukraine-ru...

Usually when states go to court alleging federal coercion in violation of the 10th Amendment there is not a literal video of the President doing it.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.
