This isn’t diplomacy, it’s a mob shakedown. “Nice minerals you got there, Ukraine. Hand ’em over or we pull the plug on your internet while Russia bombs your cities.” That’s not leadership; that’s doing Putin’s dirty work. www.rawstory.com/trump-zelens...

“So Elon Musk killed this program for disabled kids (illegally) because it included the word ‘transition.’ It helps them to transition from high school to work.” H/T @palafo.bsky.social, who posted the above on another platform.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

I’m curious: are our former Presidents—Clinton, Bush, Obama and yes, Biden—doing anything to stop this coup from continuing? What about someone I deeply admire—@ericholder.bsky.social ?

Not so fun fact: Before 1974, women could not open credit cards w/o their husband's permission (among other horrors). Could Project 2025 eliminate the Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974? Last night, I had a nightmare that Project 2025 would try to elminate this act. Please tell me I'm wrong.

An amazing resignation letter to Bove from an AUSA who worked on the Adams case. Money quote: “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.

Question: how can Trump’s lackeys shut down government agencies that were approved and funded by Congress? I don’t get it.

Trump is not going to leave in 4 years. People should accept this. He's telling you again and again.

Correct. Americans will need to start figuring out now how to save democracy. Assuming there will be elections in 2028 is abject folly.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Chris Murphy: "Here's the message. If you beat a police officer in this country, you're going to jail for a long time, with one exception. You don't go to jail if you beat the hell out of a police officer in service of Donald Trump ... it put Democrats' lives in jeopardy in particular."

I keep reading posts that our country is like 1933 Germany. I like to think that we are more like 1789 France.

Trump just literally eliminated an Executive Order to reduce the price of prescription drugs. They are ripping you off, personally. They never gave a shit about the price of anything.
