The media is pushing the "DEI" story as being the motivation behind the military purge. That is a smoke screen to hide the real intent which is to eliminate a chain of command that would obstruct the execution of Trump's unlawful orders, including orders to take action against American citizens.

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

Here's my action of the day for anyone in Texas. These are the agencies that the Commerce Committee, headed by your very own Teddy Cancun, oversees. He's the guy w/oversight authority over Sean Duffy's cuts to FAA (and failures to respond to plane crashes). Think of creative ways to lobby him!

The border czar wants the FBI to arrest AOC. A Fox News contributor is calling journalist Mehdi Hasan a terrorist. Elon Musk said everyone at 60 Minutes should go to prison. You all see how quickly we’re descending into madness, right? It’s not subtle, slow, or anything but a premeditated scheme.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Bernie Sanders: "The struggle against Trump, the struggle against oligarchy, which is led by Elon Musk ... that's not gonna be won here in Capitol Hill. It's gonna be won by millions of people all over this country standing up and saying, 'we fought and died for democracy.'"

If you wonder how countries slip into dictatorship, it’s like this. Amidst another flurry of news, an official adds at the end that Trump has signed an Executive Order saying that “only the President or Attorney General can speak for the US…as to what the law is.” What?! 👀

Umberto Eco put together a now-famous list of 14 attributes of fascistic states. I'm going to discuss each of them in hopes this helps ppl understand that fascism is not just a buzzword. We're going to go through these by theme, so strap in. 🧵

Musk & his hackers control the US Gov agencies. Trump doesn’t control anything. MAGA has been Gaslighted.

Oligarchic control and subservient justice & security systems are lessons Russia has for Americans, & another is the neutering of the Russian Duma, which abdicated most of its powers to Putin and soon had the rest taken away. The GOP looks ready to become Trump's United Russia.

For fucks sake. We didn’t lose because of the price of eggs. We lost because Republicans SAID it was the price of eggs. Now they’re dismantling government, stripping rights, starting trade wars and Dems are saying “look at the eggs!” Leaders lead! Stop chasing their bullshit! Focus and fight back!

Just in case people don’t fully grasp it. The pardoning of insurrectionists is Trump’s way of building loyalty from militias and domestic terrorists to carry out unofficial acts for him

Roundups of migrants begins tomorrow with many ending up in camps. Obviously Elon Musk trolling by doing a Sieg Heil salute is gross, but it isn't what I'm most concerned about, even as a Jew. Don't take the bait and get into multi day arguments over it. Worse shit is happening.

If you were impacted by L.A.'s fires, you may suddenly be having conversations with your insurance company for the first time. In my reporting for @levernews.com, I spoke to Dylan Schaffer, a partner at Kerley Schaffer in Oakland, specializing in assisting policyholders, and this is his advice. 🧵

Remember how Elon Musk said the biggest scandal in internet history was a government occasionally _asking_ platforms to curb deadly disinformation? So where’s his outcry—or anyone’s—over a top Trump aide, Stephen Miller, _summoning_ Zuckerberg to _dictate_ new Meta policies in lieu of _prosecution_?
