A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Elon is firing the regulators looking into his own companies. Corruption. Plain and simple.

The Republican arsonists set fire to the FAA, after America didn’t see major crashes for 16 years, all for Elon to charge a fee to put it out, which we all know he won’t. He broke government, and wants to make money “fixing it.” THE GREAT AMERICAN SCAM!

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

Why does a 38-year old U.S. Attorney in SDNY, who is also a die hard conservative, have more guts and integrity than the entirety of the GOP Senate Conference combined?! Shame on the shameless sycophants and enablers there, who can’t find the spine to stand up to common MAGA bullies.

This is what it's always been about: major cuts to programs working Americans rely on so GOP megadonors, Wall Street executives, and billionaires have more money in their wallets.

Truly wild to see how Trump is playing second fiddle to Elon Musk. Musk is clearly acting as the de-facto president while Trump just fires off social media posts as if he is Musk's assistant.

Believing that Tulsi Gabbard — longtime Russian asset and newly confirmed Director of National Intelligence — is acting in the interests of the United States requires an extraordinary level of self-delusion.
