Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Trump has been a Russian asset since the 80s and was the reason I went onto Twitter in 2016 to try to warn people. He is a vile sociopath and the lies he is spreading are straight from the Kremlin. What is most important is Europe devising a plan and putting it into action ASAP

"Trump wants to partner with Putin’s Russia morally and politically—against Ukraine, and against liberal democracy. The U.S. president is on Putin’s side. Trump made clear he’s going to make a deal—one that amounts to a capitulation—regardless of Ukraine’s wishes." www.thebulwark.com/p/the-cruelt...

If your argument is "sure, a terrible modern event has a parallel in the 1920s and 30s but don't worry we turned out just fine", might I suggest reading about the 1940s.

Watch Mr. Jones directed by three-time Academy Award-nominee Agnieszka Holland, starring James Norton, Vanessa Kirby, and Peter Sarsgaard, and written by Gaslit Nation’s own Andrea Chalupa. Watch it on your favorite streaming library. #oligarchy #dictatorship #dictatortrump

I don’t know why it took me so long to see this, but he’s in gamer mode. He and his DOGE crew are on a World of Warcraft raid, slashing and burning as much of the federal government as he can manage, laughing and trolling the whole time. He’s incapable of empathetically understanding the harm.

💰 Cutting billions in programs for regular people while passing trillions in tax cuts for the rich while pretending to care about the debt. Pay attention.

Barely three weeks in, and a single, solid order from a highly respected federal judge, and they already are hinting at ignoring judicial orders, the ultimate constitutional crisis. Trump and Vance as Thelma and Louise speeding up and driving car over the cliff. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/o...

Yikes. Trump, Musk, and their Band of Rapacious Billionaires are turning me into some kind of social democrat. "If liberals want to be seen as trying to reduce the deficit by $4 billion dollars, a 1% levy on Musk alone would equal NIH’s $4b in deficit reduction." www.thebulwark.com/p/the-most-d...

Don’t take any lectures about government fraud or waste from folks demanding to fund a second sector of education with unaccountable school vouchers—and cutting in middleman vendors to run the thing at 2.5-10% off the top of each transaction

Seismic, and catastrophic. Russell Vought, an evil architect of Project 2025, is also an architect of Trump’s agenda to destroy the federal government. Vought is a lawless ideologue who wants federal workers to be “traumatically affected” when Trump tears down executive government institutions.

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov Why can’t one senator hold up everything in these confirmation hearings, for example, like Tuberville did for military appointments??? We need some real guts now. Arrest Musk and other lawbreakers!!
