Trump tried a seizure of power in 2021. It didn't work, because he relied only on a violent mob. The military and FBI stayed loyal to the Constitution. This time, with approval of the Republican Senate, Trump has installed anti-constitutional putschists at FBI, DoD, and Pentagon

Raskin: "It's becoming obvious to the American people that Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not opponents of corruption, they are agents of corruption."

Jamie Raskin: "Given that I was marching at age 3, you know I’m not letting any coup-plotting, election-denying, insurrection-supplying autocrat, kleptocracy, plutocrat or theocrat, or any techno-feudalist Silicon Valley broligarchs aspiring dictator, turn me around now.” Amen!!

True words.

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

Spot on.

Time to impeach the dangerous Vance.

The shape of our new gov't is becoming clearer: --The Dept of Buying Stuff from Tesla --The Dept of Buying Stuff from Space X --The Deptof Buying Trump Meme Coins & Promoting Crypto --The Dept of Making Vlad Happy --The Dept of Cruelty --The Dept of Bad Science --Guantanamo --The Kennedy Center

Every Senator who votes to confirm RFK Jr. today should be voted out of office. Pass it on.

If Leon found evidence of waste and fraud, don’t you think he would be sharing the EVIDENCE EVERYWHERE? He is a reckless liar who is stealing from YOU and fulfilling his revenge fantasies on the institutions in our government who are INVESTIGATING HIM.

RFK won't try to ban vaccines, at least some of them. He'll try to ban vaccine *mandates*. That was his shell game. And the consequences will be catastrophic. The bro-science meatheads are celebrating today.

The dumbest people who have ever existed are running the country

JUST IN: Federal judges orders HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore “by no later than 11:59 pm” today their websites and datasets to pre-January 30th status. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump Names Himself Principal Ballerina of Kennedy Center Trump’s takeover of Kennedy Center has surprised millions of Americans who previously thought worst thing to happen to Kennedy brand was JFK’s nephew strapping dismembered whale’s head to his minivan www.borowitzreport.com/p/trump-name...

Are you marching yet?

Terrorist Trump quoted yesterday saying he’s sending Moscow Musks incel hackers to the Pentagon for cuts & personnel dismissals in the US military. Putin is instructing the GOP to disarm and disband our forces. America is under attack. #1776 #RedCoastsAreHere #PearlHarbor #9/11 #WorldWar3 🇺🇸 🩸

Musk must be banned from all government agencies. He has been invited by stupid Sec. of Transportation Sean Duffy to overhaul the FAA. Cannot be allowed!

I'm thinking ...

If you are still in denial that the Trump administration's ultimate goal is to turn the United States into a White Nationalist Christian theocracy with Trump at its head as an authoritarian king with unchecked power who can rule by decree, you are not even trying to pay attention.

This !!

Little Marco Rubio just made an illegal, inhumane deal with El Salvador—sending immigrants and even American criminals to rot in barbaric prisons with no due process. This isn’t justice, it’s a human rights violation. This cannot stand. tinyurl.com/Rubio-ElSalv...

Holy shit. “USAID’s inspector general was investigating a public-private partnership involving Musk’s company just before Musk shut the agency down. Key USAID web pages mentioning Musk’s company have suddenly vanished from the agency’s website.” Follow the money.

If you think my friend Sandi Is correct Drop a 🦋 and share

Please explain to me how a political party that went batshit crazy over Hillary's email server is OK with Musk stealing the personal data for every single citizen and business in this country.

THIS IS WHAT WE WANT!! Stop them all. Freeze the Senate! Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz has announced he will put a blanket hold on all Trump diplomatic nominees. Go @brianschatz.bsky.social!

Every time.

Now this is exceptional. I love Canada

Correct. It’s really more of a hijacking than a coup.
