it’s hard to pity trump voters when their common thread seems to be "I knew he'd fuck people over, I just didn't know I'd be among them"

Just want to reiterate it is NOT NORMAL FOR THE WORLD'S RICHEST MAN WHO HAS NO OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT ROLE TO ADDRESS THE PRESIDENT AND HIS CABINET. And, also, casually joke about accidentally cutting Ebola prevention for a hot minute.

Trump on US imports of Canadian resources: "We don't need their oil. We don't need their lumber." 60% of US oil imports are from Canada. 35% of US lumber imports are from Canada.

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

So don't just disseminate it, @justinbaragona.bsky.social. Make some of the fact that this claim was debunked, on multiple grounds, before Trump picked it up, just like the Gaza condoms. This is a story about Elon causing Trump to tell embarrassing lies, that discredit DOGE.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

This is a program for teenagers with serious disabilities who are finishing high school and transitioning to their next steps in life. Trump just axed it, effective immediately, in the middle of the night, with no notice.

The Trump administration has just announced that all college financial aid programs, scholarships, prizes, housing, and graduation ceremonies that help Black or Latino students are now considered to be illegal. The Education Department accuses colleges of discriminating against white students.

Pay attention: Trump says “I do see a longterm ownership position” in Gaza for the U.S.. This is the U.S. president saying his country will buy foreign territory whose residents have expressed no such interest in leaving or selling.

Between unprovoked and foolish trade wars, threatening our allies, eliminating foreign aid, gutting our civil service, preparing to weaken the intel community and FBI, placing inexperienced clowns in key nat sec positions, and supporting our enemies’s agenda, we are weaker by far today than on 1/19.

Donald Trump, who is credibly accused of sexually assaulting children, changes the law to protect those who sexually assault children. Everything Donald Trump does protects people like him.

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment. One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.

what Musk is doing is as close to the government being taken over by a hostile foreign power in our lifetimes, the coverage should reflect that

67 people died in the Potomac and he ran to the first camera he could find to blame Black people for their demise. I'll never understand how 77 million people saw this ghoulish behavior and said "that represents me."

Warren: "He can stand there, smile at you and say, 'anybody can vaccinate their kids who wants to,' but he literally could bankrupt the vaccines manufacturers with the power he will have. And since he's got a financial incentive to do that, we cannot trust him in that job."

The story behind RFK Jr. in Samoa's measles crisis has never been reported. He wasn't there to spread misinformation about vaccines (though he did). He wanted to study a "natural experiment" of unvaccinated kids. “I can’t imagine anything less ethical or more cruel.” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Of course ending birthright citizenship is blatantly unconstitutional. So is a third term in office. But I thought the same thing about presidential criminal immunity and holding office after inciting an insurrection. The obvious is not so obvious anymore.

In her first week, Biden FTC Chair Lina Khan pledged to "protect the public from corporate abuse." In his first week, Trump FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson announced that "DEI is over" at the agency. One agenda to protect people. The other to distract from corporate plunder.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

I don’t think we need the updates on looting arrests in the fires. A couple dozen, aka very few. The updates feed the fiction that the poor are the predators. The anti-social behavior right now is that of the President-elect, the Fox hosts cracking jokes, the “influencers” expressing glee.
