gravedigger of american democracy. a more malign influence than john c calhoun.

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

🚨 Your House representative is now back home through February 23. That’s where we come in. With Trump and Elon Musk pulling off a billionaire coup in real time, this congressional recess is about turning up the heat like never before. Let’s get to work: indivisi.org/muskorus

The first challenge to the Trump 2.0 administration heads to SCOTUS: "If you’re interested in rooting out waste and corruption, you want someone like Dellinger in place. So, Trump’s insistence on firing him is telling." open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

At a hockey game this weekend, Canadians loudly booed the US national anthem—and then turned around and proudly sang their own with full-throated joy. The contrast couldn’t have been clearer.

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Oh my fucking God.

The very first thing he did was a Nazi salute.

Have that conversation. Set you fear aside. This is your Anne Frank moment.

Sam Nordquist didn't deserve this. Sam was reported missing on Feb. 9, 2025. Over that period of time, Sam was tortured and sexually abused repeatedly. Five people were charged with murder. Sam was transgender. This is what hate does. RIP Sam.🙏🏽🕊😪 www.ctvnews.ca/world/articl...

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

Some new 🦋 followers I just met!! All resisters Under 1K. Let’s give them a much needed boost!🚀💫💯 @chewy2152.bsky.social @lisavetter.bsky.social @balloonsoup.bsky.social @rickdujour.bsky.social @warmachine2025.bsky.social @aspectabund.bsky.social @harrowedsparrow.bsky.social @mcgeetar.bsky.social

Plot twist. Flynn backs down after a year of stupidity. I have questions to be answered still. Thanks to my incredible legal team of @markzaidesq.bsky.social and @bradmossesq.bsky.social!

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans. Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

a year ago 16-year-old Oklahoman Nex Benedict died after a bathroom beating. in the time since, we've lost more trans kids, while losing federal trans rights. how a community is holding itself together after years of living under Trump's current anti-trans policies at the state level @teenvogue.com

Disgraceful, despicable, intolerable.

Too. Little. Too. Late. ✨

Elon Musk and DOGE have failed to cut spending despite creating massive chaos in the federal government, according to a review of official data by The Economist. In fact, spending might actually be up since Trump took office.

Tom Homan basically admits to a quid pro quo for dropping the corruption charges against Mayor Eric Adams in exchange for enforcing Donald Trump's mass deportation plan. "If he doesn't come through...I'll be in his office, up his butt, saying 'where the hell is the agreement we came to?'" Vile.

Man...he literally nuked them from orbit. Thank God some people still remember their duty.

Be super weird if we found out that one of Elon's Dipshits happened to be tied to one of the most aggressive and stupid cybercrime gangs in recent years. That'd be wild. If his group of morons had ties to another group of morons who had, I dunno, stolen from a bunch of Vegas casinos and stuff.

Justice Dept lawyers are showing other public servants, members of Congress and the public - not to mention quivering media moguls - what it means to be a citizen of a democracy. You do not bend the knee nor kiss the ring of tyrants.

Hagan Scotten’s letter is excellent and only one page long. Read it! Send it around!

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: I’ll say this again: download all your SF-50s, performance evals, and your eOPF. Now. Print hard copies. And make sure you file an informal grievance with your supervisor within 15 days of any adverse action. Here is a template: www.muellershewrote.com/p/informal-g...

Only red states like Louisiana, West Virginia, Tennessee and more will suffer from Nazi Musk/MAGA regime destroying the Education Dept as they rely heavily on federal funds. Thriving blue states like New York, California and Massachusetts already fund their own education systems.

A reminder that Tulsi Moscow Gabbard was once placed on a ‘No Fly List’ and is a Russian asset as well as an Assad apologist. Republicans have now confirmed her as the next Director Of National Intelligence. The United States is in mortal danger and it’s being allowed to happen.

OMB's Russell Vought wants to slash funding for NIH, which helped develop a "miracle drug" for cystic fibrosis that his daughter received. “We’re extremely grateful to live in a nation that leads the way on medical innovation,” Vought's wife wrote in a 2021 post. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Follow up that illustrates the point I made within here: DOJ went to Judge McConnell tonight, asking him to allow them to "continue withholding FEMA funding" ... "due to specific authority" outside of the rescinded OMB memo. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Big Balls has learned his lesson. by Susan Collins

If you’re wondering if you’re in a constitutional crisis and that the republic could collapse at any moment, you are.

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

Dear media, No, Trump isn’t “signaling” that he “might” ignore the courts. He. Is. Ignoring. The. Fucking. Courts. The end. Do your damn job.

Kendrick Lamar managed to piss off all the right people. Well done.

ED REPORT: “Yet another state policy analysis reveals the significant potential harms of the Musk-Trump Administration’s “dismantling” of the Department of Education.” open.substack.com/pub/theeduca...

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

is the goal merit or is the goal segregation?

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

“Mark my words. … They are going to basically tell the U.S. Marshals Service, do not enforce any of these orders, we will not obey them, … and, once that happens—I hope it doesn't … but I know in my heart that it will—our 236-year experiment … in American constitutionalism, is over.”

Marbury v Madison is a seminal case from 1803 that holds that the federal courts must determine the constitutionality of the actions of the other two branches of government. Hope that helps, Stephen.
