I’m a recovering political junkie who is dealing with the election results by hiking more an spending as much time out in nature and posting cute animals. For now. I’ll be back fighting when needed but won’t let the orange menace live in my head

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.

Super Bowl ads have been pretty meh. I did love the Harrison Ford ad for Jeep (genius to have him say he loves Jeep even if his last name is Ford) and good message. And the Nike ad on women’s’ sports was perfection. Shameful that Fox gave Yeezy ad time. But they have no shame

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

Huge crowd at a press conference outside USAID right now. USAID saves lives and protects our health security and must be allowed to continue its work on behalf of the American people. And the American people are not backing down.
