DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

The United States literally spent trillions of dollars on defending its democracy during the Cold War from external autocracy. It's unfathomable to witness US democracy be so easily and rapidly dismantled from the inside. It's an unconscionable betrayal of American history, values and sacrifice.

Since tariffs are a tax on U.S. importers, why do we permit the President to impose them unilaterally without authorization from Congress? Asking for a nation.

Governors should demand that the Trump administration maintain air safety and transportation safety standards, generally. Travel is a critical part of our economy. We should all write to our governors and state legislators and ask them to insist on an immediate halt to further changes at FAA & NTSB.

Losing an election does not bestow an obligation to obey a brazenly illegal fascist transformation of government. The Democratic leadership must step up - resist, expose & defy Trump with every power and publicity that their offices give them. They need to lead the national spirit of resistance.

How about a fresh little oil painting to brighten up your news feed? A painting of some of our pretty tomato harvest we had in Fall 🥰

Trump addresses the World Economic Forum: "Nothing can destroy coal. Not the weather. Not a bomb. Nothing. It might make it a little smaller. It might make it a little different shaped."

Here’s one thing you can do today: write to Senators and Reps asking them to override Trump’s executive order limiting communication about health topics. All of HHS - including Medicare - is restricted from communicating with public and contractors. It’s a de facto shutdown of the entire agency.

CATO Institute Director of Immigration Studies says Trump’s “monstrous” birthright citizenship EO includes a clause that seeks to deny the legitimacy of Kamala’s citizenship, and is about “a population purge” 👇🏽

I'm going to try not to post "oh my God everything is on fire" stuff without something we can do to counteract it, in this case "call your reps." @resist.bot is super handy for faxing your reps via text; I used it all the time under Trump 1 and I imagine I will give it a work out this time as well.

THE BOOK OF THE UNNAMED MIDWIFE by @megelison.bsky.social. What a wonderful novel. Follows a midwife wandering a post-plague America secretly supplying birth control to outnumbered, enslaved women. Humane & complicated & messy & dire & inspiring. And, wow, TIMELY.

This is the one. It’s not the only correct argument in this thread but it’s the one with mass appeal, which is to say you don’t have to know anything about trans people to go “hey yeah”

As today goes forward, keep in mind Michael Cohen was sentenced to 3 years in jail for 8 counts including some of the same crap Trump was convicted of.
