I have news for you - we aren’t taking over Gaza. But the media and the chattering class will focus on it for a few days and Trump will have succeeded in distracting everyone from the real story - the billionaires seizing government to steal from regular people.

"Elon Musk is not an elected member of the government. He is running the Department of Governmental Efficiency. ... It is not a government agency. It has never been created by Congress. It has no legal authority.” @hcrichardson.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov

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'"

@fetterman.senate.gov I have called your office (4 times) and cannot get through to a staff member. Please tell Pennsylvanians what you are doing to block Elon Musk's takeover of the Office of Personnel Management. Congress needs to do their job and protect the American people.

Musk, who is not a government employee, is committing a shitload of crimes. State AGs need to act. He’s not immune.

More birthright citizenship knowledge: The Fourteenth Amendment's Birthright Citizenship provision was intended to address--and repudiate--the Supreme Court's decision in Dred Scott, which said that those descended from African slaves were not citizens, regardless of where they were born.

This is exhausting and a waste of time and money. The vaccine/autism connection has been tested & found lacking, whether for MMR, thimerosal, aluminum, "too many too soon" & more. This just further stigmatizes autism & casts doubt on vaccines (which is the point).

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO
