The richest man on earth, Elon Musk is trying to kill a department, USAID, that helps the poorest people on earth Because USAID has been investigating Musk and his Starlink company — and their ties to Vladimir Putin and Russia THAT is why Musk is attacking USAID

Whole Foods, which is owned by notorious union-buster Amazon, is arguing that Trump's dismantling of the NLRB means the company doesn't have to recognize a newly unionized store in Philadelphia. Looks like Jeff Bezos's investment in Trump is paying off.

I remember when right-wing media said that I wasn’t qualified to be a member of Congress because of my credit card debt. My debt was nowhere near $1.2 million. Do they think the same of RFK Jr? Or does that standard only apply to young people? We know the answer.

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community. No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality. Hate has no home here.

Has congress passed a law superseding or eliminating the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961? Has the Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional? Then why are journalists reporting that Trump and Musk are "shutting down" USAID. They are not authorized to do so.

An Elon Musk staffer misused the U.S. Marshals Service by falsely invoking their authority to intimidate. USAID security personnel were threatened with action by the federal Marshals Service.

Please remember that this administration is not “the government.” They are not governing. The government is not the bad guy. Trump and the oligarchs are the bad guys. They are dismantling “the government.”

3 GOP justices on North Carolina Supreme Court express full support for overturning victory of Democrat Allison Riggs. This remains 5 alarm fire for democracy & should be getting far more national attention. It’s Trump 2020 playbook, but could actually succeed www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

More from inside NIH: Per a source with knowledge, for all internal research (of which there is like $10 billion worth or so), ALL purchasing shut down as of yesterday. That means gloves, reagents, anything involved with lab work, which means a lot of that work will stop.

Lloyd Austin was confirmed 93–2. Mark Esper was confirmed 90–8. James Mattis was confirmed 98–1. Ashton Carter was confirmed 93–5. Leon Panetta was confirmed 100–0. Robert Gates was confirmed 95–2. Pete Hegseth will likely be confirmed at 50-50. Most unqualified nominee in American history.

We don't know what Elon Musk meant with that hand gesture but we do know he's reinstated Hitler apologists on X, praised an extreme far-right German political party and endorsed the claim that Jews push "hatred against whites" www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆
