Conservatives have a special meaning of free speech, which has nothing to do with free speech and everything to do with their desire for consequence free lying. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

This is a hopeful perspective, and also a very necessary one. The more people see angry citizens, public refusals to comply or to kneel, and public servants speaking about their loyalty to the Constitution, the more fragile the Trump coalition will be, and the more isolated the Musk clique will be

if you look at a bad thing that happened and assume, evidence-free, that it's because a Black person got a job they shouldn't have, you're not a "DEI skeptic," you're a dumb gutter racist

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Elon’s unceasing attempts to access info systems of the federal gov't range so widely, & are so unprecedented & unpredictable, that gov't computing experts believe the effort has spun out of control. Four IT professionals lay out just how bad it could be. Gift link.

I have to say I find the sexism of people's opposition to Pam Bondi grotesque. Not only is it sexist, but it leads you all to wildly underestimate her.

I keep seeing talk on the timeline along the lines of "lol it's so silly of Elon to expect his Jugendbrigade to locate government waste and fraud" - and I really need people to sit down and understand that that is not what any of them are doing.

Via @capitolhunters.bsky.social, here's the Social Security IG report that explains the discrepancy Musk has been claiming to have found (which Karoline Leavitt parroted). It clarifies these people are not being paid. oig.ssa.gov/assets/uploa...

$55 billion < 1% of 6.75 trillion. #DOGE put Americans out of work, left kids to starve around the world, crippled NIH research, and massively compromised our personal data for less than 1% savings. It's time to stop playing games and increase billionaire & corporate taxes to balance the budget.

Jamelle Bouie is correct here, in my view. Using the phrase “Gulf of America” instead of “Gulf of Mexico” – the name first applied to that body of water in 1550 – has nothing to do with national pride or ideology and only to do with obedience to Tr•mp. #Obedience #Führerprinzip

I feel like I’m standing in the middle of a freeway, screaming that a truck is barreling toward us, while everyone around me nods thoughtfully, asks if I’ve considered being less alarmist, and wonders aloud whether the truck has some valid economic anxieties.

Important thread. This resonates with me so much as I continue to struggle to find the words to fight the authoritarian state policing of professors in red Ohio’s SB1 higher ed bill that is maniacally “anti-woke” but pretends to be about “intellectual diversity” and free speech.

Given Musk's personal relationship with Putin, I don't think we can safely assume that national security breaches by DOGE are accidents due to incompetence rather than deliberate actions.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Today, I joined Sen. Blumenthal in front of the VA to rally for our veterans and VA workers. When veterans signed up to serve, there wasn’t a waiting line. When they come home and need health care, housing, or a job, there should never be a line in the United States of America.

It breaks my heart that the brave badass underdog Ukrainians have been fighting this unprovoked Russian attack so valiantly and kicked their asses for so long, and now this is how it's going to end: Trump kissing Putin's ass and throwing them under the bus. Shameful. 🤬 www.ft.com/content/2bf2...

Clearly the "liberal indoctrination" in higher ed. that #ohio state senators fearmongered about has been a massive failure. Ohio has a Republican state house & senate, a Republican governor, and two Republican US senators. Ohio voted Republican for POTUS in '16, '20, '24. 🙄
