"Chutkan asked whether the government's legal team could confirm [that nuclear engineers were fired] — and they said they didn't know. It was a fact that legal analysts watching the case unfold were shocked by."

I fear they’re coming for ALL school vaccine mandates next. Including measles, mumps and rubella.

Pete Hegseth, Sec of Defense really disgraced our country & himself in Europe. The ever angry and unlikable JD Vance insulted & stunned our allies, ( his arrogant utterances had to be walked back). Both are unqualified for the high offices they occupy.

🚨FAFO ALERT

Ok Austin get to it!!!!

We cannot trust RFK Jr. to make health care decisions that will affect millions of families.

This is corruption on an epic scale. So glad that musk is going to make his investment back from getting Trump elected. And this is why he doesn’t care that Tesla sales are in the toilet.

Snip snip snip. A little here, a little there. Millions stolen and thousands of Americans lives ruined.

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

Why does China get lighter tariffs than Mexico or Canada? Why is USAID - the agency countering China's global influence - being shut down illegally? Follow the money. Musk and his SV bros will do anything - even pledging allegiance to socialism - to make $$ in China.

Focus on the "why" when it comes to the closing of USAID. It's all about corruption. Trump gets to pretend he's saving money to justify his giant tax giveaway to his corporate friends. Musk takes control of foreign policy so he can do favors for China - where he makes his $$.

Our experts are here to answer your questions and discuss our game plan moving forward. Join our Town Hall to discuss President Trump's first attacks and how we're fighting back tomorrow at 4:30pm ET. RSVP at action.aclu.org/webform/trum...

Get them out of government. Most not old enough to be elected to anything. One suspects they are part of Musk’s gaming posse.

The DOGE kids showing up at Treasury:

Elon Musk, an unelected, fascist oligarch, has bought the presidency and is carrying out a swift coup to consolidate power. We need to have a frank conversation about what has happened, what it will mean, and how we must resist this as individuals. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/a-coup-in-...

While the convict-in-Chief and his Propaganda Secretary lie about condoms being sent to Gaza, it is worth pointing out that in the year 2019, the Trump administration spent $40 million sending contraceptives around the globe.

On the eve of RFK Jr’s confirmation hearings, his physician niece has shared a trove of private emails that show him making false claims about Covid-19 vaccines at the height of the pandemic, linking childhood immunizations to autism, and raising doubts about the flu shot.

Emergency Video: Where are the Dems and what is the message?! Oppose this agenda now! Come back from vacation! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Democracy Docket will never back down. It will never compromise. It does not obey. If you are looking to support a fiercely independent, pro-democracy news platform, consider becoming a Democracy Docket member today. www.democracydocket.com/member-me/

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Let Denmark cook.

PROP - PR Over Policy. Don't confuse them. He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him. Dems need to be strategic.

Dear God. I almost feel sorry for anyone who allows themself to be fooled by this guy.

We need to pay attention to this now before it’s too late.

Hard no. Maybe he’ll say it was just a joke but you can’t put the FBI in the hands of someone who thinks this is funny.

This is a slap in the face to American women. Pete Hegseth has a track record of disrespecting women service members, and multiple credible sexual assault allegations. Our troops deserve better.

Thank you to senators Collins and @lisamurkowski.bsky.social  for putting national security and the safety of our service members—including women—first, and voting NO on Hegseth's nomination. Hegseth is dangerous and unfit to lead. Our service members deserve better.

One of House Speaker Mike Johnson’s aides warned Republicans not to subpoena former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson because doing so would likely reveal all of the sexually explicit text messages Republicans have been sending Hutchinson since 2018.

If your spouse needs a safe word with her friends to protect herself from you, you should be in therapy. Or in prison. Not the Secretary of Defense.

GOP Senators need to stop & think about their legacy before they vote for Hegseth. Their daughters won’t respect them for it & their sons shouldn’t either. slate.com/news-and-pol...

I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV, but this is very concerning, even from a lay persons point of view. www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdi...

The goal is to overwhelm us so we give up. Don't do that!

You may not think it was a Nazi salute, but you know who does? www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol... www.wired.com/story/neo-na...

Trump pardoned the people who beat police officers trying to protect the U.S. Capitol. I never again want to hear how Republicans "back the blue" or are the party of "law and order." It's a big, fat, dangerous lie. www.nytimes.com/2021/01/11/u...

My god… Musk just did the N*zi Salute live on TV.

Trump WH has now cancelled reproductiverights.gov — which helped women find health care.

This man is a profound danger. Every American should oppose his nomination.

While I would happily live without the crazy press blowup around my withdrawal from the Kadrey v. Meta case, having Mike Masnick call me "in the Michael Jordan/LeBron James realm of legal scholars" makes it all worthwhile www.techdirt.com/2025/01/15/c...

No ‘water system in the world’ could have handled the LA fires. How the region could have minimized the damage.
