Love him or hate him, he's 100% correct on this.

Help me understand all these news headlines about 'soaring' stocks. They're still down.

A member of Russia’s state-owned news agency gained access to the Oval Office for President Trump’s sit-down with Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky – even as the AP and Reuters were barred from the high-level meeting.

Big win for anti-corruption in Virginia! 🎉 After 12 years of trying, Big Money Out VA and @cleanvirginia.org finally passed a ban on the personal use of campaign donations.

"... The Trump administration is actively transforming the executive branch into an instrument of authoritarian rule. If you doubt this conclusion, or its gravity, respectfully, it may be the product of unconscious defense mechanisms like repression, denial, bargaining, or rationalization...."

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

I’m seeing posts about 24-year olds firing federal employees. What I would like to know is… who is executing the firings? Who are the middle/upper managers or HR team following through on illegal orders? Are they saying “You’re not my boss, you don’t have that authority,” Or simply complying?

"Acting like a king bc he's too weak to govern like a president." wow. on point. www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8QL...

Wish I knew somebody who was in one of the two halls of Congress right now.

Saving this before the FBI’s mission statement gets deleted like so much else these days. It’s supposed to be about serving the people and the US constitution. It is *not* about ignoring the law and serving the interests of those on top.

🚨 Breaking: President Trump’s administration is waging an unprecedented assault on independent oversight, targeting nonpartisan watchdogs in the DOJ and Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board (PCLOB). This purge undermines accountability at the highest levels of government.

The kowtowing and ring-kissing is nauseating. If they want to return to the platform for other reasons, fine but doing it to be in good standing with 'powerful people in Trump's orbit?' This is how society's fall. #twitter #X #apple

Whale, whale, whale, look what China just dropped into the AI market. #deepseek

RepUs joined allies for Democracy Day in Virginia! 💪 Over 70 advocates met with nearly 30 legislators at the state capitol, pushing for campaign finance reform and ranked choice voting. Change starts with action. 🗳️

He’s not wrong about that corruption thing. youtube.com/watch?v=1Ux1...

Banning an app? This is what government has come to? Sigh…

Boring. Just like it's supposed to be in America. What happened 4 years ago was an ugly stain.

Here's a question: What if we had smaller federal government AND special interests paid for more of it?

He’s not wrong. And it’s not partisan. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYqETRQy/

Oh, to have been in the room with the design creatives who picked the blue color for @bsky.app . Is it Twitter Blue? Or something close? Decisions decisions.

It would be one thing if he was making accurate claims. Still oligarchy, but at least accurate.

🚨 Nearly 2,000 former members of Congress or their staff are now healthcare industry lobbyists. This 'revolving door' allows ex-lawmakers to leverage their insider knowledge and connections to shape policies that favor corporate profits over patient care. represent.us/unbreaking-a...

You'll learn so much about how money in politics really works from @representus.bsky.social 's Dave O'Brien's conversation on the Tangle podcast: www.readtangle.com/talking-mone...

Our anti-corruption laws need a serious upgrade.

This is so exciting! Congratulations @mariamcfarlandsm.bsky.social I can't wait to dig in with you.

“There’s roughly 38 million people that they’re hitting who’ve already made up their mind. So I don’t care how much more money you have than us to spend, you’re wasting 85 percent of your money.” Oh. Em. Gee! www.nytimes.com/2024/12/05/u...
