For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands. 👇

What ever happened to "the peaceful transfer of power"? Did that even happen? Not a word has been spoken about it.

"Moderate" Republicans vote for Trump Nominee A after A assures them they won't do X. After confirmation, they immediately do X. "Moderate" Republicans say Nominee B assured them they won't do X. After confirmation, they immediately do X. Repeat with Nominees C, D, E, F, G, etc.

Truly wild to see how Trump is playing second fiddle to Elon Musk. Musk is clearly acting as the de-facto president while Trump just fires off social media posts as if he is Musk's assistant.

1/2 🧵 Ok, so ideally I would like this post, dating from 1912 and alerting the scientific community of the time to the dangers of coal exploitation and consumption on the greenhouse effect and climate change, to go viral in order to inform the wider community.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

This tweet is setting up the Trump administration to thrust the U.S. into a constitutional crisis and obliterate our system of checks and balances as we know it.

Donald Trump announces completely unapologetically that he’s going to displace all the Palestinians, bulldoze Gaza, occupy it and turn it into Fucking Mar-a-Lago and my feed is full of my fellow Arab of Americans blaming it on…. Biden and Harris. I can’t. I just fucking can’t.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Trump stops payment on American infrastructure projects because only Joe Biden could get a major bill passed. Now he wants to spend your money rebuilding Gaza, which he plans to ethnically cleanse. That's real America First, baby.
