Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

If youā€™re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

KEEP PUSHING! If they wonā€™t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

ā€œIf you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.ā€ A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

200 million dollars of waste.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

"As we navigate the sheer quantity of hate and unconstitutional extremism found within these orders, itā€™s essential we not let this blitzkrieg distract or deter us." - Keith Thirion

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

Trump is so weak he can't call Putin a dictator Putin owns him

Some good news today! The stop work order for those providing legal representation to unaccompanied children has been cancelled.

I donā€™t wish anything bad on that poor kid, but good lord, concepts of thoughts and prayers for the dimwitted parent.

Power of the peopleā€¦

Cheering myself up by looking at an ancient scan of a 1982 USPS booklet I loved as a kid: "P.S. Write Soon," developed jointly by the postal service and the National Council of Teachers of English to instill a love of writing letters. It worked!

yooo I was just cited in a federal opinion & I'm ecstatic! I argued that the Supreme Court's originalist guns jurisprudence is asinine so lower court judges don't know how to apply it, & in footnote 17 this judge is like YEAH lmao www.scribd.com/document/823... ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/secon...

We arenā€™t all farmersā€¦

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous carsā€”which Elon Musk claims are the future of Teslaā€”is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

Lazier than ever.

Iā€™m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. Itā€™s time to take the gloves off.

The co-presidents are dismantling the government at lightning speed but havenā€™t done a single thing to lower prices. In fact theyā€™re making it worse. Why the rush?

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not ā€œvacateā€ the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Eliminating accountability for crooked and abusive cops means your priority is protecting crooked and abusive cops instead of the communities theyā€™ve harmed. This is a fascist police state tactic.

here's today's post: "bizarros, freaks and incels gather at buffoonpalooza" ā€” the CPAC circus is in town. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post ā€”

It was always Rand Paulā€™s destiny to be the last man to board the political Titanic and the first one to shove a woman out of the way to take the last seat on a lifeboat.

Hey congressional Republicans, still waiting for you to announce how much youā€™re cutting from congressā€™ own $6.5 billion budgetā€¦.

This has been my point for weeks about what Musk is after. Consolidated data from the biggest mine of information in the world. Heā€™s so thirsty for data heā€™d get his hands on the nuclear codes if he could. Could he? www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

Connolly: "The fallacy of Musk's argument is they never look at revenue. They only look at expenditures. If you want to save social security, it's a fairly easy fix. Raise income threshold subject to withholding tax & you can extend social security by 40 to 50yrs. He doesn't want to talk about that"

šŸšØNEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesnā€™t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family. Ā  By investing in the things that matter ā€“ economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities ā€“ weā€™re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We donā€™t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we donā€™t get invited on shows & donā€™t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Elonā€™s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are ā€œundermining civilization.ā€ He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from ā€œgenerational trauma.ā€ This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...
