🚨🚨🚨 ALERT: we are hearing from sources that there is a very serious danger that Senate Democrats are on the verge of folding on the MAGA CR. CALL THIS MORNING indivisible.org/resource/cal...

@aoc.bsky.social: "Tax cuts cost money. We have to pay for them. So every dollar that you spend in federal taxes is going to pay for some rich person's G-Wagon. And it's also going to cut an 8-year-old kid with autism's ability to access Medicaid. That's what they are putting on the table."

Every news outlet reporting Elon Musk's comment about accidentally canceling Ebola prevention efforts and quickly restoring them should also say they haven't been restored, they're still canceled, the outbreak-fighting teams are dismantled, the money is gone www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Banks, payday lenders, and credit card companies can now scam Americans with zero consequences because there is no longer a functioning agency to hold Wall Street accountable. This is a coup and your Members of Congress need to hear from you: indivisible.org/coup?source=...

Disgusting

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

Democratic Senators, you can’t speak out against these horrible nominees and the criminal administration on television while voting for them behind closed doors!!!!!

Sen. Van Hollen is correct. Demand #DemocracyNotDictaorship Call your senators & stop this illegal coup. #Demvoice1 #DemsUnited

@kaine.senate.gov WHY are you voting YES!!! Fight for us !!

Democrats in our govt need to say what they are actually doing, and tell those who aren’t doing anything to step aside. Chuck Schumer saying to just wait, and the FOTUS Will trip up is NOT action. Crafted statements of disappointment @booker.senate.gov is NOT action.

Apparently...

These are the dems that voted to confirm the guy that just handed the Treasury to Musk: Blunt Rochester Booker Cantwell Coons Fetterman Gallego Gillibrand Hassan Hickenlooper Kaine Kelly King (Independent) Peters Shaheen Slotkin Warner

We need to go beyond calling on Dems to reject RFK and others (though I think Whitehouse may be on board--not sure abt Fetterman). We need to get better at assigning responsibility to Republicans when they confirm and the inevitable happens. *You will be responsible for the dead children.*

Trump et al will do something outrageous, outlandish, hideous and illegal every day. Be prepared. Don’t react to everything. Temper your outrage. Stay aware but somewhat removed. They want us outraged, speechless, helpless and angry. Don’t fall for it. Pick your battles.

Trump’s team told the staff at HHS, including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health, (NHI) to *stop* issuing health advisories, scientific reports, and updates to their websites and social media posts.

Clergywomen have fought too hard to proclaim the Gospel— so no, we don’t apologize for proclaiming it just because someone doesn’t like it.

WOW! You've got to watch all of this. A priest just confronted Trump's fascism to his face. She's so incredibly brave.

In that familiar old incompetence I haven't missed, Trump's executive order defines sex as what a person is at CONCEPTION. Fetal sex doesn't begin to differentiate until about 7 weeks into gestation. Which means Donald used the highest office in the land to declare all Americans legally female.

The idea that a president can issue an executive order that overrides Congress, while it may be appealing to everyone who wants TikTok back and agrees that the TikTok ban is a first amendment violation, is actually illegal dictator shit

@mrjoncryer.bsky.social I just want to say you are a great actor and even better human being, but my son is having me draw way too much 2 1/2 men pictures (he’s autistic) and I am so sick of it. He has replaced all of you with other people. LOL.This is the character he picks tho, of all your work?

Abhorrent. President Carter was more of a man, a human than any of these legislators will ever be.

From a friend: Altadena is a historically black community where people were able to buy homes when they were red-lined from other parts of LA. It’s devastating to see that gone. Sharing a list of Go Fund Me pages for displaced black residents from the Eaton Fire. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Now without a paywall, check out the convo we had. Good morning Bluesky.

How to look petty and unprofessional.

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Just wait Because you KNOW on January 21 the narrative will suddenly change So part of our job over the next 4 years will be to tell people the truth Wages rising? Thanks Joe! That new manufacturing plant? Great Infrastructure law, Joe! Unemployment at 4%? Way to go, Joe! THIS IS HOW WE FIGHT

Truly disgusting — Senator @MarshaBlackburn uses the New Orleans attack to score cheap political points by bashing the FBI for getting bracelets from @taylorswift fans back in October. And then she’ll say she supports law enforcement? There is no bottom. Shameful.

GOP: Abortion is murder! What about actual murder, like with guns? GOP: Mental illness! What about healthcare to help treat mental illness? GOP: Healthcare is a privilege not a right!

The World is watching...

Agreed. IF Biden's administration understands the dangers of retaining Elon's contracts, AND they do nothing because trump will just "undo" it, THAT is obeying in advance. Throw sand in the gears. Make trump do his own dirty work. REVOKE his clearance and his contracts.

Hey corporate media, Thou shalt not spend thousands of hours on one CEO’s shooting and only one hour on a classroom of children.

This is their goal. Privatize everything. And by “privatize” we mean steer billions to themselves and their friends, ending programs that serve those with the least under the guise of “efficiency”. Rural areas will suffer. Prices will rise. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
