Awful: Internal USAID memo instructs employees to refrain from talking to the media about cuts in assistance to the most vulnerable or they may get fired, WaPo reports. Trumpworld knows this is a big political problem for them. Keep the focus on it. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1915...

Donald Trump, on Gaza: “…I would own this. Think of it as a real estate development for the future. It will be a beautiful piece of land.” Q: Will Palestinians have the right to return? Trump: No, they wouldn't. If they have to return now, it’d be years…it’s not habitable

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’ Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

On CNN we played numerous examples of Rubio praising foreign aid as vital to American interests. We also revealed a letter he wrote to Biden in 2022 suggesting USAID's budget needed to be increased to counter Chinese Community Party influence around the globe. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lL1s...

I sent @schiff.senate.gov an email calling for bold action as modeled by Sen. Brian Schatz and others. Schiff's staff sent a very flaccid response, condescendingly explaining the advice and consent process. Senator, I'm disappointed that you don't get it. We need heroes, not Nero's.

Did you know? 1946-Albert Einstein visited Lincoln University (HBCU) in PA, received an honorary degree, and addressed students. He said, “The separation of the races is not a disease of colored people. It is a disease of white people. I do not intend to be quiet about it.” Allies are everything!

by freezing all federal grants, trump is fundamentally transforming the relationship between the executive and congress. he is asserting dictatorial authority over federal spending, transforming congress's lawmaking powers into advisory authority. it is a constitutional crisis

The media keeps failing. They're describing Trump commandeering the power of the purse as a kind of political squabble, a funding fight akin to budget negotiations. It is an AUTHORITARIAN POWER GRAB. Trump DOES NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO DECIDE WHO GETS WHICH MONEY FROM CONGRESS.

Not just some people, but all people—on Earth—must watch this video and share it as widely as possible. Every word of it is true, and it confirms that Elon Musk is a white supremacist leader stoking violence around the world. His two televised Nazi salutes were exactly what you thought they were.

Trump now has new crypto because, you know, that's what real presidents do, sell shit to the public. Who can forget Lincoln’s special Abe-o-litionist stovepipe hat, Teddy Roosevelt's commemorative stuffed bears, or Harry Truman’s limited edition “Show Me” trench coat?
