CNN with an absolutely gigantic story: "Elon Musk’s top lieutenants at the Treasury Department asked its acting secretary, a career civil servant, to immediately shut off all USAID payments using the department’s own ultra-sensitive payment processing system." edition.cnn.com/2025/02/06/p...

This is the worst case scenario for what Elon has been up, an actual coup where he seizes control of government systems and uses them to control the government unlawfully, and it’s just been confirmed. Musk should be arrested immediately

Murphy: "The reality is this could get dystopian very quickly. If you were to start speaking ill of Elon Musk on social media, Musk might be able to stop or delay your tax refund, or your mom's Social Security benefit, in part because we have no window into what's happening at Treasury right now."

This is a glaring red flag. El Salvador will accept "deported" Americans, almost surely to be tortured and imprisoned by Bukeles thugs. You cannot legally deport an American citizen. That doesn't mean they won't try. apnews.com/article/migr...

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

If I see one more tomato post from federal Dems I'm going to go insane Call Trump a mad tyrant who's too weak and whiny to do anything good for people! Make a show of being dragged out of offices that DOGE took over! Why are the ex Tea Party GOPers fighting back harder than you!

Last I checked zero protesters were killed when cops broke up the pro-Palestinian protest camps. Something like a couple dozen died in all of 2020, during massive protests. But these people like to think of protests as something violent & terrible because it makes them feel more consequential

I have to say, the most distasteful part of this here is sneering at George Takei, a man who survived a concentration camp, as a hopelessly naive squishlib.

Unfortunately, in an ironic twist, Donald Trump's extreme tariff agenda has hit our "My Tariffs Did That" stickers, and we've been forced to raise the price. Our stickers will increase in price from $1 each to $1.25 each.
