Circling back on this…

So…lock them up?

Elon Musk's PACs have spent over $13M backing Trump loyalist Brad Schimel in Wisconsin's Supreme Court race.  If Schimel wins, the court could uphold a total abortion ban, attacks on unions, and gerrymandered maps — and change state law to benefit Tesla.  Follow the money.

Sen. Jack Reed: "If true, this story represents one of the most egregious failures of operational security and common sense I have ever seen." "The carelessness shown by President Trump's cabinet is stunning and dangerous. I will be seeking answers from the Administration immediately."

Had a great time out speaking up for democracy at the #TeslaTakedown protest in Palo Alto today. Even cute dogs showed up! No shade to employees or (fellow) Tesla drivers, but DOGE and Elon have got to go.

Chuck Schumer has a book tour starting this week. It would be a damn shame if people showed up to let him know how they feel about his capitulation on the short-term spending bill passed by the Senate Friday afternoon. @schumer.senate.gov

What kind of nation are we becoming?

History is a really good teacher. If we pay attention to her, she reminds us that populations don't become monstrous overnight, that nations don't abandon humanity in a single moment. Collective sickness usually follows a pattern and we’re seeing it now. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/fascism-is...

Week FIVE in Walnut Creek CA and the crowd grows exponentially every week. At least 750 today! Join us every Saturday at noon! mobilize.us/s/yyc5Pw @alexwinter.com #teslatakedown #MuskOrUs @leahgreenberg.bsky.social @ezralevin.bsky.social @indivisible.org @repmarkdesaulnier.bsky.social

He is allowed the time to go cross country to promote a flipping book? @schumer.senate.gov read the room, dude! 👀 You did not listen to us as we told and wrote our suffering . Why would we read your book ?

I don't get ANY Dems voting for the CR to "avoid a shutdown." Have they not heard of all the DOGE firings? The end of USAID, gutting of Social Security, the IRS, the Department of Education, DOJ, CFMB, DoD, FAA, FEMA, the weather service, etc? WE ALREADY HAVE A FUCKING GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN.

Trump walks to Marine One to head to Mar-a-Lago to play golf on the taxpayers dime. This trip will cost us $3.1 million, which could be used by USAID to feed 710 starving children for a full year.

Overwhelm… Overreach… Overthrown. open.substack.com/pub/michaelm...

Thank you, President Biden. Thank you for your lifetime of public service. Thank you for your kindness, your compassion, your empathy, your character, your love for America and for your leadership. You have given everything to our nation. And I shall remain forever grateful.

The cardinal rule of these confirmation hearings? Do not say anything to upset Donald Trump.

READ THIS. THEN READ IT AGAIN.

Trump stiffed Rudy on his legal fees from 2019-21. $2 million. Rudy ran all over the country filing lawsuits & appeals. It cost him his job at law firm, his law license, his apartment & everything he owns. Trump, despite raising over $200 million for it, never paid Rudy A PENNY.

Even if you're a political junkie, I'll bet there are a few things you didn't know in my timeline of terrible Republican behavior in the last half-century. Take a look at my free Stop the Presses newsletter.

TYLER PERRY: ".. Does anyone else find it appalling that insurance companies can take billions of dollars out of communities for years and then, all of a sudden, be allowed to cancel millions of policies for the very people they became rich on?" @latimes.com variety.com/2025/film/ne...

The public is invited to pay their respects to former President Jimmy Carter.

Elon Musk’s drug of choice is ketamine. While Musk claims it is prescribed by a physician, ketamine is widely known for its illicit use as a recreational drug. Ketamine and opioids do share the same brain pathways. Ketamine and the opioid system interact. According to the DEA, ketamine…

Glen Kirschner and MeidasTouch join forces to answer any remaining questions on the disqualification of Trump under 14th Amendment Section 3, what the Supreme Court ruled, and address some of the proposals that have been floated. Justice Matters X Meidas!!! youtu.be/b5-wzGdjfSU?...

Elon, you can have planes, yachts and rockets. You can have billions of dollars and power. But you can't have it all, Muskrat. Now get down and give America 100 sit-ups, you fascist pig!

Trump just said in a press conference that he wants Journalists who won Pulitzer Prizes for their reporting on Russian Influence and Interference in the elections, to give the award back and pay damages. Says his administration is "working on it". Russian Influence was NOT a hoax.

Instead of raising the age minimum for benefits, eliminate the cap on contributions.

Here’s the truth: making billionaires pay their fair share would strengthen Social Security and Medicare for generations.

Trump says he's wants to privatize USPS because it's "unprofitable". Reminder that the Post Office isn't a for-profit enterprise: it's a public service that guarantees everyone in America reliable, affordable, and universal mail service.

MAGA is silent today. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

🔥"If billionaires like Elon Musk paid into Social Security at the SAME rate as the rest of us on all of their income, we could expand benefits for EVERYONE and pay them in full forever!" - Social Security Works🔥

Absolutely everything about Donald Trump is predatory. Trump is a greed machine, rolling over and crushing everyone in his path.

Let's talk about an actual witch hunt! 🙄🤬 #RepublicansSuck

This sounds like a direct threat from a crazy person.

BREAKING: NO IMMUNITY!!! Donald Trump does NOT have immunity from prosecution in the hush money case in which a Manhattan jury found him guilty earlier this year, Judge Juan Merchan just ruled. Donald Trump remains a felon.

ABC (Disney), Washington Post (Bezos), Meta (Zuckerberg), LA Times (Soon-Shiong)... all bending the knee to Trump, all obeying in advance, all sucking up to the Dictator-in-Waiting. This is (part of) how democracies die. This is the Orban, Putin, Netanyahu and Modi playbooks.

Tech billionaires are lining up to kiss Trump’s ring: 💰 Zuckerberg: donated 1 million to inauguration & met w/Trump at Mar-a-Lago 💰 Bezos: donated 1 million to inauguration & to meet w/Trump 💰 Altman: donated 1 million to inaugural committee 💰 Cook: dinner w/Trump 💰 Elon: shadow president

Disney CEO, Bob Iger, received $31.6M in compensation in 2023. He received over $45M in 2021. Disney fought against paying its everyday workers $15 hr, in fucking California, and flouted wage laws-despite receiving a tax payer subsidy. Elon and Bezos are suing to dismantle the NLRB. I wonder why…

America💙What are we waiting for? it’s time to enact “section 3 of the 14th Amendment” and Stop A corrupt seditionist traitor from entering the office of the Presidency! We all know Trump is responsible for the Jan 6 attempted coup to overthrow our government🤬 #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #DemsUnited

The Trump transition team recommends repealing a requirement that Elon Musk's Tesla opposes where companies have to report automated vehicle crash data. SHOCKING. www.reuters.com/business/aut...

As someone on SSDI I can't tell you how it hurts to listen to people speak about Social Security and Medicare but fail to mention the populations who subsist on these programs: Seniors: 77.8% Survivors: 11.2% People w/Disabilities: 11% It's very crucial in our messaging to ensure EVERYONE is seen.
