Today was a grim, terrible day for the United States and the cause of democracy. Putin, along with other dictators around the world, can finally look at Trump with confidence and think: one of us. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Senate Republicans once again showed us their true colors last night. They want to pay for tax breaks for their rich corporate friends by defunding your Medicaid and Medicare. Unreal.

Why does the world's richest man want to gut the CFPB? Because it would shield him from having to follow financial laws to keep customers' money safe — and give him access to confidential records about his competitors. Follow the money.

An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government. DOGE is not a real government agency. DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions. DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law. DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

This would be nuts even if they were gov’t employees with clearances: “Three of the sources said the DOGE personnel wanted to gain access to security systems and personnel files. Two of those sources said also they wanted access to classified information.” www.cnn.com/2025/02/02/p...

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result is demagoguery and corruption.

Whoa—the Montana Supreme Court holds that its state constitution protects the right to "a stable climate system," and strikes down a law that barred consideration of greenhouse gas emissions when permitting new fossil fuel projects. juddocumentservice.mt.gov/getDocByCTra...

It's not every day that an FBI Director-to-be lays out his plans in an easily accessible book. But QAnon-supporting Kash Patel is not a regular guy. Read about all of his plans in our summary of Patel's book: Government Gangsters: The Deep State, the Truth, and the Battle for our Democracy.

The handwringing lectures about how the left has no choice but to stay on Twitter are even more ridiculous when you remember that the far right used a series of alternative media — from direct mail to talk radio to Fox News to Breitbart to Gab, Parler and Truth Social — as their path to victory.

And we already knew it didn't work 50 years ago. From a 1972 study: "In fact, the 'trickle down' theory of development-whereby the poor supposedly benefit from overall economic growth or policies benefiting the rich-is proving utterly inadequate."

The thing about DOGE is they aren't gonna come close to that $2 trillion cuts goal but they are gonna make a big list of everything wealthy conservatives hate, like a consumer protection agency with teeth and independence.
