Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Here’s the thing about this. Evangelicals are the largest percentage of homeschoolers in this country BY FAR. And Evangelicals also DEEPLY believe in spanking and hitting their children as a disciplinary measure. So following those threads you can see wanting to repeal this makes complete sense

They learned something from their first term. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a grift is a good guy with principles. So this time they're firing all the good guys with principles.

A president rapidly sundowning into full-blown dementia ambiguously handed power over the entire government to a delusional billionaire drug addict in a made-up illegal quasi-office and the Cabinet is split over whether their departments have to listen to his mad orders. It's day 34.

What some Republicans are missing when they say Trump is the only person who can bring peace to Ukraine is... it's incorrect. Ukraine doesn't want peace. Ukraine wants sovereignty. They'll fight until they either get it or can't fight.

If RFK Jr. actually cared about medication safety he would have worked to empower the FDA. Instead he is gutting the FDA and proposing that untested therapies be available (sold - it all comes down to profiting off their positions of power) to the public with no protections in place.

It's sickening how Texas is trying to cover up the harm their laws are causing to women by just refusing to let anyone know. Shutting down or hamstringing agencies that track maternal mortality, removing reporting requirements, anything they can do to not acknowledge that women are being harmed.

NEW: Donald Trump fired a bunch of veterans today while simultaneously hindering care for veterans. In a month or so, republicans in Congress will cut food stamps so these veterans won’t be able to feed themselves or their families. I wonder how many of them voted for Trump.

Elon Musk fired a disabled Veteran with 3 tours of duty from his job serving other Veterans at the VA. Elon’s companies get billions from defense contracts. He’s happy to profit off our servicemembers - but when he can no longer make money off them, he kicks them to the curb.

NEW: Georgia’s governor promotes his Medicaid work requirement as a national model for reform. Yet the program has cost taxpayers $86M, three-quarters of which has gone to consultants, and enrolled less than 3% of the quarter-million Georgians eligible.

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

Fascinating how many liberals want to accept the unproved premise that we are less happy and justify it. I reject even the premise. Self-reporting is not a reliable measure. Considering how conservatives *act* like bitter, angry people, I'd think they aren't as happy as they say.
