Tim knows what to do!

It is a peculiar paradox of the cronies and thugs who surround President Donald Trump: the more macho their image and the harder they try to project manliness (and boy, do they try hard), the more submissive they are to their boss. 🧵1/2 www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

Funny how those in right-wing media spun endless conspiracy webs about Biden being “compromised” over Hunter’s business deals, yet Elon Musk — swimming in foreign ties, gov't contracts, and so much more — gets a free pass. Did they all suddenly run out of red string?

BEST part of the day. "Lock him up."

Germany showing us how it is done.

Georgians showing how it is done.

Murphy: "That's just fancy talk to say, 'we're gonna give money to people who pledge loyalty to Trump, and we're not gonna give money to people who don't pledge loyalty.' Today it may be government contracts, but tomorrow it may be your tax refund."

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

Remember: The tariffs aren’t about economics, and DOGE isn’t about fiscal responsibility. They are both about ••psychopathology**.

Huge anti Trump protests in Los Angeles today. ❤

Over the last nine days, the house has been out of session while the Democracy is sold for parts. Would have been nice had the Democrat come back on their own and sued, yelled, stood up, etc. Anything but stayed home

Trump was elected, not Musk. Who is actually running the country? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...

I am begging Democratic lawmakers to stop solely pointing out the obvious problems and start publicly talking about how to address them. We know our democracy is unstable and unhealthy. What are you gonna do about it? Cease the platitudes and broad statements. Get specific and talk about actions.

You can dance around it as much as you want, but all this anti-DEI is ultimately just good old-fashioned RACISM!

Bullshit. The public backlash is just too much to handle. Some might be asking if they are either liars or incompetent. They are both.

Nor am I!

South Koreans are providing the world a masterclass on how to handle a power hungry president.

Pete Hegseth is unqualified and unfit to lead the Department of Defense. These latest sworn statements are further evidence of disturbing and outrageous conduct. Is this really who Republicans want to entrust with the lives of our men and women in uniform?

This is your mission. We take our power back now at the local and state level. Stop waiting for a national hero. It’s you. Get to work.

@sihenrikson.bsky.social Good to see you here.

Musk’s intentions with the salute? He’s already spelled them out in writing. joycevance.substack.com/p/musk-in-di...

If you’re wondering how we got here, just remember that almost half of Americans read below a 6th grade level and that the war on education from the Right persists. Source: www.thenationalliteracyinstitute.com/post/literac...

On this national day of shame I choose not to focus on Donald Trump and his awful, miserable and pathetic people. I choose to focus on Dr. Martin Luther King and our better angels.
