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. Now.

BREAKING: “Musk’s DOGE is seeking access to a heavily-guarded IRS system that includes detailed financial info about every taxpayer, business and nonprofit in 🇺🇸 — sparking alarm within the tax agency.” Alarmed yet?

All of this right here👇this is how societies flourish. The top 1% has enough and they need to contribute to the economy, I mean how much money does one person need. Trickle down economics has never worked and it never will, really wish MAGA Republicans could understand this.

Proud of prosecutors in SDNY and Washington who resigned rather than carry out DAG Emil Bove’s order to dismiss indictment against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. Integrity > politics and careerism.

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'"

Now we know how the English felt during the Dissolution of the monasteries, abbeys, convents, priories of the Catholic Church. Henry VIII dismantled the only direct support many people had, stole all the gold & artwork.

If America is hit with another pandemic, medical emergency or whatever, we won’t get the news from any medical or science department/entity of our federal government. They’re no longer allowed to inform the American public.

I got lucky today! My dog threw up in my car about noonish, so I was spared from seeing any television at that time. Good boy, Buddy! Yes, I’d rather scrap dog puke out of carpeting than watch TFG.

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head. So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

“These patriotic civil servants are the backbone of our nation — they inspect our food, protect our borders, ensure safe travel, and provide relief to disaster victims. Over 642,000 of them are veterans of our armed services. Allowing them to go without a paycheck over the holidays is unacceptable.”
