Seen today in Lower Manhattan...

Are we sure this isn’t a Tesla Authorized Option™️

Every Senator's, every Representative's voicemail should be full. Call them every day; Drunk dial you congress person.. its free. Its your right. Call them every day Their voicemail should be full every single day.

Guy who doesn’t even respond to the mothers of his children: reply to my email or you’re fired

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

A message to Germans (the ones on Bluesky already know this): True patriotism does not mean allowing Elon Musk, JD Vance, Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin to decide for you. Don't vote for the AfD!

Musk has already used this power to help Putin at a critical time.. It’s foolish to think he won’t again.

As America is being torn apart, weakened, and sold to the highest bidder, I think about all the folks who told me, "Well, it won't be THAT bad" and "We survived 4 years of Trump..." and "The systems will hold." All of them are privileged and well-off. Alas. We're all in it now.

AOC believes in Democratic Tea Party 2026. Do you?

"We didn't think that would be us" But they DID think other people would suffer and voted for that

They actually did this this is all so horrible, illegal and incredibly stupid

Who the fuck is Elon Musk? Who the fuck is he to *demand* ANY thing of Americans' civil servants? Get him Elon the fuck out of the country. Kick him out. He's an illegal immigrant. @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats-judiciary.house.gov @democrats.org

There are civil service protections. ⚖️ see: www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

its amazing the way conservative arguments fall completely apart in court when there are actually penalties for lying

“.. ‘We did not elect him,’ a man shouted. “.. more constituents shouted questions about Musk’s access to taxpayer data and yelled ‘don’t lie to us.’” #WI06

the absurdity of smuggling eggs being a thing now ought to make for the easiest dunk of all time

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

The sooner all elected Democrats realize you cannot "balance" condemning Trump and staying on his good side, the better. You can be an active helper in furthering his fascist agenda, or you can be his enemy. Anything more than zero negative statements about him and zero resistance, he will crush you

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Illinois looks very different in 2025 than it did in 2019. We've passed six balanced budgets with nine credit upgrades, invested in education, driven economic growth, strengthened our social safety network, reformed the criminal justice system, and rebuilt our infrastructure.

Extortion, pure and simple.

Peace through strength means: Russia must lose and Ukraine must win No other path to durable peace exists

Hegseth is going to fire every woman or Black person in military leadership.

Ok, I'm doing a version of this thread for 🧪 who are new to political conditions where info security is a safety issue: 1. Don't make public lists of people who are engaging in acts of resistance 2. Be weary of calls to advertise acts of subversion 3. Don't live post resistance meetings

Indeed, Americans seem to be quite concerned by how far Trump is going, and most of his signature policies and initiatives appear to be quite unpopular — especially those spearheaded by billionaire Elon Musk.

BREAKING: Associated Press is suing the Trump administration for violating the First Amendment. This is what needs done at every turn. Resist. Fight back. Well done AP👏

Trump slump

Wrote about how easy it is to claim you saved taxpayers billions when you just make shit up. But also how this is the Twitter Files all over again. The dumbest people don't know what they're looking at so it must be a conspiracy www.techdirt.com/2025/02/19/i...
