It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice). 1. Refused to violate the law. 2. Refused to violate the Constitution. 3. Refused to bow or scrape. 4. Refused to bend a knee. 5. Deleted this stupid email.

It’s amazing how many Republican politicians, Fox hosts, & commentators have come out to strongly disagree with Trump’s statements about Ukraine while none of them even mentioned his name while doing so. Their level of fear and terror of Trump is something to watch.

One month in, and voters aren’t buying Trump's mismanagement of the economy. He promised to lower prices, but 66% say he isn’t even trying. Instead, he’s letting Musk raid Social Security and Medicare to fund more tax giveaways for the wealthy and corporations. @alexsjacquez.bsky.social

Another massive scoop from @marisakabas.bsky.social on how Musk’s DOGE squad now has a middle-manager with a questionable background (to be charitable) who was about to be put on administrative leave this time last week - in charge of social security administration.

Musk and DOGE are closing local Social Security offices, making it hard for people with disabilities to access help. Frank Bisignano, former FISERV CEO, is Trump’s nominee for commissioner of Social Security. He is likely to expand this. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

So here’s what happens when they actually go after Social Security & Medicare: They officially PISS OFF approximately 73+ Million Voters, their Families & Friends, and their political lives END! Are you paying attention GOP? We’re watching very, very closely, we know who you are! CONSEQUENCES!

#ProudBlue FOTUS and his buddy Elon are having a great time cutting our democracy to shreds. This is criminal and Americans are suffering for it. They are going after Medicaid and you can bet Social Security and Medicare won’t be far behind. We have the stupid MAGAs to thank for this, FAFO, idiots!

President Trump has said Social Security “will not be touched.” But the DOGE team’s first wave of actions — initiating the elimination of 41 jobs and the closing of at least 10 local offices, so far — worries advocates about what might come next.

Christofascist Evangelicals have erased from American history books that Hitler and the Nazis were far-right, nationalist, conservative Christians. Yes, really. This is common knowledge in Germany. Just ask the AfD Nazi party. They'll be happy to tell you that this is why they love Trump.

Nazi salutes are having a moment. Our critic weighs in. Steve Bannon’s offered precise form worthy of 1930s Germany, but Elon Musk’s honored the drug-fueled mania of the original Nazis.

Steve Bannon giving a Nazi salute at one of the biggest conservative events in our country should be career ending. Instead, conservatives are defending and even praising him. Do not ignore this. This is how fascism takes hold. Do not let them gaslight you into ignoring the signs.
