At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

@propublica.org continues to identify DOGE workers. For example, Katherine Armstrong Loving, whose brother runs the crypto exchange Coinbase. Civil charges against coin base were just dropped by the administration. She is identifying EPA projects to nuke for Musk-Trump

We need a work requirement for the Missouri GOP. They plagiarize bills, scroll on their phones all day, disrespect the voters, work 90 days a year, and walk away with taxpayer-funded healthcare and a state pension.

Here’s an idea: Hochul removes Adams and replaces him with someone who will tell the Secret Service that the next time Trump comes to Manhattan the Secret Service can block the streets themselves without the help of the NYPD

There always was Trump/Russia. There still is Trump/Russia. The early actions of the Trump administration signal the continuing force of Trump/Russia. Feel free to add to the list, but here’s my list. Note: It’s only been a month.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

I'd bet cash money that he cut a deal to get a private mail delivery contract, and to hand over his project to electrify the USPS truck fleet to Tesla in exchange for his resignation. Just a hunch.

@raskin.house.gov: "The whole anti-corruption crusade is an absolute fraud. They started by decimating the ranks of the inspectors general. These are the people whose job is actually, day in and day out, 365 days a year, to ferret out waste, fraud and abuse in the departments and the agencies."

A top Social Security Administration official resigned after clashing with Musk staffers over access to sensitive personal records. They sought entry into an internal system containing Americans’ private data. Thank you, Michelle, for resisting—and for your 30 years of service.

I suspect we’re going to be hearing more stories about failing farmers having their land bought for cheep—it’s not a coincidence. Is this why USAID was cut—to make way for billionaires?! Watch til the end and keep an eye on national parklands too. 🧵

The billionaires have been working on their merger with the evangelicals and “conservatives” for decades…abortion was the wedge issue to get Christians to vote against their own good. It was never about babies. It was to bring about a coup…it is an oligarchy taking over the US inch by inch.
