This x10000000000 “In other words: We, the opposition, are the majority. Take heart.” www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/they-are-a...

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

What these nihilistic vandals are doing to dismantle science & medicine—generations of expertise & public service & life improving benefits—is cultural revolution level national self harm. No foreign foe could inflict such brutal damage & senseless suffering on US so fast & effectively & unresisted.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

AOC needs to primary Chuck Schumer

It isn’t “alarming.” It isn’t “outrageous.” It isn’t “unusual.” It sure as shit isn’t “arousing.” It’s fucking unacceptable and we don’t want more letters or statements or demands for investigations. We want action! We want sand thrown in the machine! We want leaders to lead! Right now!

Senate needs to respond to mass firings of Jan 6 attack prosecutors by rejecting Trump nominees. Have a spine and stand up to this autocratic effort to rewrite history and embolden political violence. Block Bondi and Patel.

Dem leaders need to start holding national security press conferences explaining to Americans how Elon and Trump are dismantling agencies and seeking sensitive information on federal workers and all Americans. What Elon and co are doing will endanger everything from flying to attacks in U.S.

Well said, Pete Buttigieg

Russell Vought is the Project 2025 author that Trump wants to run OMB. He also supports the illegal practice of impoundment — which Trump tried to use yesterday. If Democrats want to be an actual opposition party, they'll do everything in their power to fight his nomination.

This is Phyllis Fong. I very much respect that she made them physically remove her from her office, which remains hers by right, because she hasn’t been legally terminated.

They’re testing. It wasn’t a “glitch” that turned off Medicaid portals. They’re seeing which things they can delete without a fight. Vets benefits? Abuse shelters? Aid to children? Cancer research? They don’t care who gets hurt. Just what they can get away with. Keep. Fighting. Back.

Let me say this in no uncertain terms: the President’s actions today are illegal.   Cutting off people from healthcare, childcare, and other services is cruel. The State of Illinois will fight this unlawful order with everything we have.

The freezing of federal grants, the firing of all inspector generals, the immunization of political violence - does everybody not see what’s happening? In a blitzkrieg, Trump is trying to collapse our democracy - and probably our economy - and seize control. Call it what it is.

Anxious Nation Waits For Democratic Party To Do Something, Anything In Face of Republican Assault On Life And Liberty

Yes, please!

This is unconstitutional.

New Marist poll: Trump starts with a net-negative favorability rating, 44% favorable, 49% unfavorable. This destroys the idea Trump has a mandate. Wish Democratic leaders would see these polls and realize Trump is not popular. Stop talking common ground and start fighting!

Look I get everyone’s cynicism and despair but yes…it does matter that Senate Democrats fought back today. It will matter every day. We have to show the fence sitters and people that stayed home the truth. Will it stop these nominations? I don’t know but we all must fight. Don’t throw your hands up.

Evangelicals overwhelmingly chose Ronald Reagan over Jimmy Carter — a literal Sunday school teacher. There is no reason to think they will ever return to sanity…

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: CNN stated, "Oh, he's just teasing." Teasing about taking over other countries? There's no such thing as "teasing" when you're threatening the sovereignty of independent nations.

Let’s do this. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Big media are already sanewashing RFK Jr. NYT calls him "a vaccine skeptic with unorthodox views about medicine." No. He's a deranged conspiracy theorist with unhinged views who will kill significant numbers of Americans if he is confirmed.

Payback is a bitch. And so are we. You’re on notice. We aren’t going anywhere. We’re not hiding. We’re not being silent. But we are taking notes.

Dear Democrats, think like a coach. Use the off-season.
