No matter how preposterous, the Times headlines nearly every Trump story as if it were written by the White House comms team.

New from @karenhao.bsky.social: more than a dozen workers in federal agencies outline how the administration is pushing a new ideology and stoking paranoia within the government’s ranks. “People are terrified,” one source said, “not for losing their jobs but for losing democracy.”

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

Media are missing this if they don't include it. Yes, Judge Chutkan just denied temporary restraining order in New Mexico v Musk. But judge signals plaintiffs have the better argument when this reaches the merits: That Elon Musk is exercising power in violation of Appointments Clause. ⬇️Key para⬇️

I have remained fairly silent over the past few weeks, largely because I have been processing the reality of an organization dedicated to improving government services being repurposed into the vector of destruction of those very same services. I wrote up some thoughts. Quick tl;dr🧵

Donald Trump is selling out our seniors to Elon Musk. He is handing over control to sensitive Social Security information to an UNELECTED billionaire. Is Trump too weak to tell Musk no? Is he using Musk to cut Social Security so he doesn't have to take the blame? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/u...

This is what 13 states are asking for tomorrow at 11 am. It would protect several departments and all agencies within them from Musk and Doge. Including the IRS, since it's part of Treasury. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Excellent read for all of us in Virginia. The governor and the attorney general are complicit in their silence about what is going on across the Potomac. And they are both selling out regular working people in Virginia.

A week ago, I sued Trump over his unconstitutional executive order attacking gender-affirming care. A court just issued an order blocking that executive order in Minnesota for the next two weeks. On 2/28, we'll be back in court to ask for an indefinite halt to this cruel bullying of our children.

This morning, President Trump and his crony Elon Musk illegally seized $80M in congressionally-appropriated FEMA funding from NYC bank accounts. Trump and Elon stole tens of millions of dollars straight from our bank accounts--this is highway robbery, and NY cannot take this lying down.

A huge decision from Judge Amir Ali, meticulously reasoned and utterly scathing, finding that Trump’s foreign aid freeze is almost certainly an illegal and arbitrary abuse of power. He orders the immediate restoration of all international assistance. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

The CFPB isn’t even funded by your tax dollars… and it’s still raking in BILLIONS in recouped money to help defrauded Americans. The Trump admin isn’t going after it because of “efficiency.” It’s going after it so Elon and other scammers and grifters get a free pass.
