So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

72 million Americans are on the chopping block to lose their healthcare if Republicans pass the budget that came out of the House. AOC (D-NY) voices her concerns daily telling her colleagues on the other side of the aisle that people are yelling Don’t Cut My Medicare. AOC has no fucks left to give.

Trump just ordered the DOJ to eliminate the police misconduct database. Imagine losing your child to police brutality &finding out the officer had a violent history that wasn't tracked. That’s what happened to Eric Garners family. The officer who killed him had many complaints before that fatal day.

Trump’s EO ruining the independence of federal agencies shows the real goal of Musk and Trump is not efficiency or even winning the culture wars. It’s thievery. And they are exceptional thieves. My latest in @thenation.com

repeating myself a bit here but trump can issue an executive order but that doesn’t necessarily mean shit if it doesn’t have a firm statutory basis. if congress lays out in law what the duties of a particular official are, then no, the president can’t decide those duties are something else

Over at the other place, JD Vance is calling me a ‘dummy’ for pointing out his administration’s attacks on journalists and free speech here at home. Musk literally today called for the jailing of CBS journalists. The VP clearly has a lot of time on his hands.

Oligarch owned media will downplay any protest or movement it sees as hostile and try to control the narrative or scope of your goals. This is a tired tactic. They claim thousands are hundreds and call you mere “anti-Trump critics”. Don’t let that discourage you, your voices are louder. #3E

The US is officially the 2nd most hated country in Europe thanks to the Trump betrayal of Ukraine. Meanwhile, Musk is actively interfering in both Germany and Romania's elections by openly backing the pro-Kremlin candidates. Both nations are key to Ukraine's defense against Russia. #StandWithUkraine

The Trump regime pushed to Extort Ukrainian president Zelenskyy to sign over 50% of Ukraine’s multi-trillion dollar resources to U.S. entities in exchange for past U.S. aid (~$109B since 2022). The US provided Zelenskyy an agreement to sign and gave him less than 4 hours to read it. #OpCanary
