Being snatched off the street for your opinions. I'll say it again. We are deciding, right now, whether the aspirations we hold for this country are finished. Whether we're going to let these hoodlums and grifters throw what's left of the American idea into the garbage for their own profit and gain.

Chuck Schumer is the “weakest link,” indeed. His inability to adapt to today’s challenges is costing the party and the country. It’s time for Schumer to step down and let real change happen. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

I wrote about Chuck Schumer. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Schumer must have realized his Chris Hayes appearance was disastrous. Today on Meet the Press, Schumer said he DOES think democracy is at risk. Two days ago he said "we aren't there yet." Keep up the pressure, keep calling your Senators - Schumer must FIGHT or step down! 📱(202) 224-3121

Chuck Schumer heard us, but he isn’t listening… KRISTEN WELKER: “Leader Schumer, are you feeling pressure to step down?” CHUCK SCHUMER: “I’m not stepping down.” @SenSchumer doesn’t realize his defiant “no” is just going to continue to fuel the fire for real change—the people won’t be silenced!

Imagine being deeper underwater than a couch-fucking walking chatbot trained on 4chan. @chuckschumer.com needs to step aside and hand the baton to someone who knows how to fight

TESLA IN GERMANY

BREAKING: massive protests are gathering outside the Tesla showroom in Manhattan right now.

Elon Musk is losing his mind over protests at Tesla dealerships. Why? His fortune is collapsing. Nearly all of it is Tesla stock. You know what to do, America. If you want to save our government from a coup, apparently the rebels’ weak spot is protesting and boycotting Tesla.

Tesla stock down another 5.6% today. 30% down YTD.

If #Tesla offered free #Toyota badging on all new Cybertrucks, that might help sales. electrek.co/2025/03/06/t...

Legal counsel representing federal employees is now being targeted by the Trump administration. Law firms are receiving a clear message that retaliation is possible for those advocating on behalf of individuals or groups opposing the administration’s agenda.

Just heard from a friend who is a true hero veteran. His company was destroyed in 30 days by the VA when they canceled 5 contracts without notice. 23 Americans mostly veterans out of work and a veteran owned small business destroyed. For nothing. They're dismantling the VA not "reforming" it.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Images from the #TeslaTakeDown protest in Manhattan, one of close to 50 such events taking place across the country. Protesters are chanting "Stop the Coup" and "Boycott Tesla."

The Air Force is stripping Tuskegee Airmen lessons from basic training curriculum because of our White supremacist government. Put that in a headline. www.expressnews.com/news/article...

Useful guide.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk says he's all for ending the EV tax credits and other "subsidies" to companies. But if a new administration delivers more lax environmental rules for automakers, one of Tesla's key profit-drivers could go away. insideevs.com/news/742024/...

Most modern batteries can last 200,000 miles or more. And the latest estimates put EV battery replacement costs on par with replacing an internal combustion engine. insideevs.com/news/742022/...
