The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on.

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America. Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

Elon Musk's plan to cut the Social Security Administration's staff by 50% would cause 37,000 more Americans to die each year waiting to receive their disability benefits while the average wait time to collect these benefits would jump to 412 days. That is beyond unacceptable.

DOGE scrubbed a long-dead contract from its site—the same place it’s been posting phony “receipts” to fake success. Do they not understand how government works, or are they lying to the public? My opinion: These aren’t mistakes. They’re trying to dupe us.

Trump's in full retreat today as his poll numbers slip: He convened the cabinet to limit Elon after voters pressured Congress. He delayed the tariffs b/c the market dropped out & created fears of a recession. He's losing in court b/c DOGE didn't follow the law. Keep fighting.

Trump has dropped or halted more than 1 in 5 investigations and enforcement actions against corporate lawbreakers. At least 34 of those companies — including Tesla, Amazon, and Wells Fargo — gave over $34M to Trump's inaugural. It's a new Golden Age for corporate criminals.

Elon Musk’s staffers are trying to access a vast database containing earnings information for nearly all U.S. workers. This database is maintained by the Department of Health and Human Services as part of the Federal Parent Locator Service, which is primarily used for child support enforcement.

Federal marshals forced entry into the US African Development Foundation and escorted Musk staffers inside, after agency employees resisted their entry. Once inside, they changed the federal agency’s locks. Musk staffers were seen plugging in an external hard drive and going through everything.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

If you thought DOGE wouldn't eventually come for you – think again. Your hard-earned Social Security is under attack by an unelected billionaire. Right now.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

Trump wants to fire 83k VA workers, many of whom are veterans themselves, decimating the VA & making it harder for veterans to get health care & benefits. When Americans put their lives on the line to defend our country, we must keep our commitments to them — not betray them.
