Why does a 38-year old U.S. Attorney in SDNY, who is also a die hard conservative, have more guts and integrity than the entirety of the GOP Senate Conference combined?! Shame on the shameless sycophants and enablers there, who can’t find the spine to stand up to common MAGA bullies.

“Mark my words. … They are going to basically tell the U.S. Marshals Service, do not enforce any of these orders, we will not obey them, … and, once that happens—I hope it doesn't … but I know in my heart that it will—our 236-year experiment … in American constitutionalism, is over.”

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

All true. Even were it not, one could argue that, given the authority Musk is exercising, and his lack of accountability to anyone (other than perhaps Trump), he is serving as a principal executive officer under the Appointments Clause, and is acting unlawfully unless confirmed by the Senate.

1/ Musk seeking control over nerve systems of the federal government. As someone who spent a decade studying how centralized information systems are used for coercion this is a five alarm fire. We need to name it, identify risks, and seek to mitigate their impacts. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...

In an interview with Reuters, Kellogg states that US will advocate for presidential and parliamentary elections in 🇺🇦 even if before a ceasefire is reached. This plays into Putin’s claims that “Zelenskyy is an illegitimate president”. Allowing pro-russian parties to run is also one of the demands.

With all due respect, @schumer.senate.gov we need you to fight for us. We need no votes on dangerous nominees and policies. We need every Dem screaming “DANGER” to every microphone, network, radio station and newspaper. Stop pretending there are still norms. Lead or get out of the way.

NEW: In an unexpected move last night, the North Carolina Supreme Court dismissed GOP candidate Jefferson Griffin’s petition challenging over 60,000 ballots cast in his November 2024 race for a seat on the bench, which he lost to incumbent Democratic Justice Allison Riggs by over 700 votes.
