Trump, and by extension the American government, has sold out our ally and is now on the side of Putin’s despotism. This is what 77 million Americans voted for in pulling the lever for him. Trump’s fondness for Putin was no mystery. It’s a stain upon our country and a disgrace.

The goal is to terrorize federal workers into quitting. That’s it. Constant changes. Canceling work from home then closing offices. Laying off probationary employees. It’s designed to break the government. Then privatize it for profit. It’s not efficiency. It’s collapse. Only peasants will suffer.

Every Republican senator shares responsibility for what’s happening. They are complicit in, and share responsibility for, whatever mess Trump’s dangerous nominees cause. But a few GOP senators from purple(ish) states face reelection next year — and we’re going to shine a light on their complicity.

It's mostly obvious. But it's worth saying explicitly and this is an example. Under the heading of "DEI" they're not simply banning some new things from the last decade but also what is simply civil rights enforcement and even (as here) the mere recognition & expression of racial & ethnic identity.

Trump just called for a permanent displacement of Gazans from their homeland. If you’re on the left and you didn’t vote for Harris, I don’t wanna hear a DAMN thing about how someone needs to do something.

I am begging every Democratic committee, PAC, and candidate to get control of your damn email program right now and stop sending tone deaf fundraising emails that have nothing to do with what's happening. Stop listening to focus groups from a month ago. Stop the 2 approved talking points.

More of this. Resigning in protest has little significance anymore. Say no, throw a fit, make waves. Politicize the public in favor of the civil service. We are in danger without it.

Criminal records of J6 Rioters who were pardoned by Trump includes rape, domestic violence, drug trafficking, and manslaughter. Cool, cool. Maybe would have been smart to research a few of those before pardoning everyone, huh? www.npr.org/2025/01/30/n...
