The fact that NBC can (accurately) call the Administrative Procedure Act “obscure” just shows how little Americans know about how their government works. It literally is one of the most important laws ever enacted by Congress.

"Arbitrary and capricious" A law that requires federal agencies to follow the correct process when making changes in policy is becoming a big hindrance to Trump and his shock and awe makeover of the government. New, from me 👇 www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

My grandmother’s family was murdered in the chambers of Auschwitz. She survived and told me never let it get that far. Make them shoot you in public before they murder you in hiding. Stand up for others. Never cave in fear of the Nazis or the holocaust will happen again.

Leader Schumer and Leader Jeffries: I know there's a lot going on right now, but when the Pope, from halfway around the world, is more forcefully calling out Trump's horrific anti-migrant actions, that's a pretty clear sign you need to step it up on the messaging.

The AP must refuse this but more importantly the rest of the White House Correspondents Association should back them. Boycott the press briefings until they relent, and if they refuse, walk out. There is no real use to them in any case. Trump craves attention. Deny him that and he’ll cave.

That’s nothing. I found 13 contracts awarded to SpaceX since December totaling $77M. 1/

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

NEW: ProPublica has identified nine additional Musk-affiliated staffers. A former staffer at Boring Company now has an official role at DOGE in the Executive Office of the President. A former X employee now works in the General Services Administration.

Klobuchar: "Corruption is up. You know what else is up? Egg prices. Because as much as Donald Trump promised to bring prices down and costs down for Americans, another day goes by where there is no work on bringing healthcare costs down, no work on bringing housing costs down ... "

DOGE "Fork in the Road" emails went out to federal judges, who have lifetime appointments www.newsweek.com/doge-emails-...

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Dear @Doge If there is nothing to hide. Hide nothing

This is absolutely chilling. He truly is a sociopath.

Thanks to all who were concerned if our house survived the fires. Amazingly enough... it did. My heart goes out to everyone who weren't as fortunate, not only in my neighborhood, but all of Los Angeles. Together, we will get through this! ❤️-mh

I’m a huge fan of U.S. Vets and was proud to support their DC location. Veterans who are displaced in LA can reach out to them for assistance.

CNN interviewed more than a dozen experts, and they said that no fire hydrants would have been able to stop the LA wildfires with the high winds. “I don’t know a water system in the world that is that prepared for this type of event,” said one expert.

Poppy went back to her full-time foster mom this morning. Unsurprisingly, I cried, and Simon is thrilled. She's still in NYC looking for a forever home as perfect as she is. Interested adopters can apply at: www.shelterluv.com/embed/animal...

What specifically is Donold distracting everyone from by calling for war on Canada and Greenland

My message to Zuck

They give us unconditional love, devotion & loyalty. They are a reliable source of peace, joy & contentment. That they have made this a better world is an undisputed FACT. 👁️❤️🐶🐕

It's been over 2 months since Helene struck North Carolina and the news cycle has moved on. But CBS Evening News revisited North Carolina's recovery this week and it's a reminder that many folks are still struggling.

Frost: Let's be honest about DOGE and this whole thing, it's a joke. Two billionaires who are cosplaying as government officials..

This is the most-read piece on @theatlantic.com. It should be the most-read piece. You should all read it, even though it may make you sad. Here’s a gift link so you can read it. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I understand Donald Trump for what he is a buffoon. Donald Trump wants you to be scared. Rather than being scared, I am proud to be a happy warrior for democracy. We all need to have the courage to not back down. Do not obey!

Hi. It's not normal for a nominee to be Director of the FBI to have his own personal hit list of people he wants to take revenge on using the power of the fed'l govt. Do not confirm.

As I have somehow surpassed 7k followers on here I thought it might be nice to do a giveaway: All 7 of my books to one lovely winner. Just share and like to be in with a chance! 😁📚

If we want to do this, people who believe in democracy need to start gearing up to run for school boards across the country ASAP.

Jack Smith plans to release his final report on the federal investigations into Trump before Inauguration Day on January 20. It’s expected to detail Smith's findings on key cases, including allegations of election subversion and mishandling of classified documents.

CNBC Just Now: back in the 1st Trump Term, Americans digested 80-100% of the Trump/GOP Tariffs YOU DON'T SAY! #RepublicanConsequences

Donald Trump’s first act as president will be to intentionally *raise* prices for the American people.

🚨BREAKING: Special Counsel Jack Smith has just filed a motion to dismiss the January 6th charges against Trump WITHOUT prejudice. "Without prejudice" is significant, because that means technically the case can be tried again. Who else wants Jack Smith's report released to the public ASAP? 🤚

I wrote about how Morning Joe’s cowardly display this past week exemplifies how authoritarianism is able to infect a country because it has rotted from within.

We *must* prevent this from happening.

Oh come onnnnnn, didn’t we just live through a pandemic? I feel like I’m losing my mind……

Perhaps more of the legacy media should have pushed back on his lies at the time. @democracydocket.com did.

Goodnight, Simon

I'm not sure people realize that their liberal billionaire heroes socialize quite often and effortlessly with their conservative billionaire villains.

We wake up playful!😄❤️

I don’t think a United States senator saying this should be taken lightly

Tammy Duckworth on Tulsi Gabbard: "I think she's compromised ... Russian controlled media called her a Russian asset."

I love this.

Normalizing Trump is a bad idea. Period.

Never obey in advance.
