After years of them telling us Biden wasn’t really in charge, it’s crystal clear that Trump is not the one in charge.

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is on its face a violation the equal protection of the laws.

Elon Musk has no business being anywhere near our personal data. It's that simple. Pass it on. Also, @jessicatarlov.bsky.social is in the trenches fighting MAGA on Fox News everyday, if you don't follower her, you should!

The moment we say it's ok to violate the law to shut down one agency – we say it's ok to violate the law to shut down anything.

It’s past time for Treasury to come clean on Musk’s takeover. People's Social Security, Medicare, and their most sensitive personal data is at risk. I'm not going to stop until I get answers.

Kash Patel took the 5th before agreeing to testify before a grand jury. Now he doesn’t want to share his testimony about Trump's unlawful retention of classified documents. @booker.senate.gov, @whitehouse.senate.gov, and I sent a letter demanding that he disclose what he said. It is essential.

It turns out entrusting our democracy to a bunch of white Christian nationalists who only see government as a means to enrich themselves and punish their enemies is a really bad idea, actually.

Trump's federal funding freeze has stopped the hiring of thousands of essential, seasonal firefighters. Yes. You read that right. I'm demanding answers from the Trump administration ASAP. They must reverse this freeze.

I was just outside the Treasury Department where Elon Musk has launched a full scale authoritarian takeover. My message to Musk is simple: get your hands off our money and get the hell out.

RFK, Jr: “For 30 years, CDC & NIH have looked at this autism epidemic & said we know it’s not vaccines but we don’t know what’s causing it. Well we’re going to find out what’s causing it & we’re going to do that in a couple of months.” So we should expect to know the cause of autism by April? 😂

I'm still mad about Ken Klippenstein's article from yesterday. You can't be any kind of leftist, or even just left-of-center liberal, and look down on government bureaucrats. All social programs depend on dedicated civil servants. We can't get anything done without them

Shuttering the agency responsible for international assistance. Turning the government over to wealthy oligarchs motivated by economic self-interest. Telling all CIA officers they will be paid if they quit. China and Russia are winning so much they are getting tired of winning.

Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove says of the purge at FBI that the “only individuals who should be concerned … are those who acted with corrupt or partisan intent…” A perfect description of the actions of Trump's own DOJ leadership.
