Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

So...I'm thinking a general TSA strike would do more to ground airplanes even than a lack of air traffic controllers.

I’m breaking down why Donald Trump and Linda McMahon’s attempt to shutter the Department of Education will hurt our kids. You’re going to want to watch this. Democrats will never stop fighting for our kids.

Trump’s plan to abolish the Department of Education is devastating. Public schools are the bedrock of our country. They're the foundation on which we build the American Dream. Democrats are fighting for our kids and their future.

Here’s this week’s report on 10 reasons for modest optimism, in rough order of importance. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/this-weeks-ten-reasons-for-modest

The man is human pollution, America's id. The international community is going to rally against this country to make sure we're hurt for decades because of all of this and we'll have deserved it.

Elon Musk has called for Amtrak and the Postal Service to be privatized. Be warned: this is a call to gut essential public services to pad corporate profits. Here are my 5 rules of thumb for when public services should NOT be privatized.

Bishop William Barber: GOP Tax Cuts "Mathematically Impossible" Without Gutting Medicaid and More

I tirelessly supported the Harris campaign. My friend @malyndahale.bsky.social and I created an online fundraiser that raised over 250,000.00 The fact that, despite Trump's virtually impossible swing state sweep, the Dems never contested—is one of the most infuriating things I've ever seen.

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

THE TRUTH COMES OUT Trump’s White House says the veterans his admin fired were perhaps “not fit” for their jobs. An obscene way to talk about America’s veterans. They put their lives on the line for us. We owe them a debt we can never repay. Dems are fighting for them. Trump is mocking them.

To all my Canadian friends, I’m so sorry. And I get that that is your catchphrase, but I have to borrow it. Because what my criminal president is doing is unconscionable. Starting an unprovoked trade war is going to hurt millions of people. It’s stupid. So, so, stupid.

I feel like I’m, like, one of three people who have pointed out the U.S. has become a kleptocracy. Weird that something so obvious doesn’t seem to get much traction. I’d sincerely LOVE to be proven wrong btw, on either my point, or others posting about it.

The richest man in the world calls people who get help from government programs the “parasite class.” But Medicaid’s beneficiaries aren’t parasites. Half of them are children. If we’re talking about people who depend on government, Elon Musk is the biggest “parasite” of all.

#EconomicBlackout

Don’t buy today. Give the greedheads a taste of their own medicine.

Attacks on free speech, book banning, forcing companies to drop DEI, not allowing people to study history, these are what the radical right MAGA people are doing. They blame the left for what they do. The proof is in the pudding. This too is an attack on free speech.

This new “OPM” (read: DOGE) email was sent to Air Traffic Controllers.  That’s right. Trump, Musk, and DOGE are diverting Air Traffic Controllers from their vital work keeping Americans safe by forcing them to do busy work! I’m fighting to keep our aviation system safe.

The Trump White House squirmed when I pointed out that they had fired FAA safety personnel, and it made the skies less safe. But facts are facts. And Americans need to know we’re fighting to make sure the flying public is safe.

Thank you Mike Pence!

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

In two weeks Elon Musk infiltrated our Treasury Department computers. And three months ago when we suggested he interfered with our election, you shamed us for stoking conspiracy and told us to move on. All we had to do was a simple audit and we could have prevented all of us. What a waste...

We have a government of checks and balances. But because Elon Musk is unelected, and not even formally part of the government, he is totally independent of those checks and balances. There is no semblance of process or procedure. 1/3

The other Republican senators who bowed to the Orange Fuhrer and voted to advance RFK Jr. are also reckless and without integrity. Their oath to serve Americans is completely worthless. They are compromised.

@drneilstone.bsky.social

I can’t believe this guy is still in a leadership position. thehill.com/homenews/sen...

An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government. DOGE is not a real government agency. DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions. DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law. DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

Literally have been telling this dude this for a very long time. Keep up, Chuck. Also: WTF are you going to do about it?

MORE OF THIS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

To the people I know who voted for him, You know how I feel about him. There’s nothing I could say about him that you don’t already know. But as this next chapter of our nation begins, I just want you to know: I am going to hold you responsible. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...

Tariff-inflated prices pass the pain along to consumers, many of whom voted for Trump. Good job, asshole.

Elon is the illegal immigrant taking your jobs and your 401ks.
