The position I'd like to see House and Senate Democrats take is pretty simple: We refuse to cooperate with Republicans on anything until they stop breaking the law and trashing the Constitution. We want Musk out, DOGE dissolved, and the Trump administration complying with federal court orders.

"Future protests seem to be on their way. A call for broad picketing at every Tesla showroom on February 15th has been spreading this morning on Bluesky, accompanied by the hashtag #TeslaTakeover." www.theverge.com/news/609621/...

This is not legal, but/and I want to point out where it is going next. Trump’s DOJ is going to claim his enemies committed crimes, and then dump them in El Salvador or Guantanamo. They are preparing to deport US citizens along with anyone they deem undesirable.

So just so we’re clear, Trump’s international plans now include invading Denmark and Panama and possibly Mexico, economically forcing Canada to be the 51st state, and a permanent occupation of Gaza with ethnic cleansing. All while Elon loots the Treasury and puts it on the blockchain.

There are two immutable facts when it comes to Trump. 1. Every accusation is a confession 2. Every wild assertion is a distraction Gaz-a-Lago is a distraction from the coup underway within our federal government, led by Oligarch Musk.

This is a great idea. Do you know anyone in Congress you can talk to?

Someone should organize a protest in front of mainstream medias offices and then maybe they would pay attention?

Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election. She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”

The dumbest trade war in history has begun. It will lead to the dumbest hyperinflation in history. It will hurt even the dumbest of us who voted for it.

Have you noticed that the overwhelming majority of Donald Trump’s supporters have become quiet? It’s because they regret their votes. Only took two weeks.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

It is astonishing that mainstream media is covering this like it is a shruggie vibe 🤷‍♂️

This is an absolute critical read this morning. An abbreviated version drops in Rolling Stone shortly. Encourage everyone to understand exactly how mandatory it is that Musk and his minions are removed from the Bureau of Fiscal Service. www.crisesnotes.com/elon-musk-wa...

Musk asked to access the Treasury system that pays out federal benefits. One of three things is up here: 1) rampant theft 2) crushing the poor and needy 3) all of the above

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.
