It makes permanent about $10 billion in DOGE cuts.  These are cuts that Elon Musk, Donald Trump and others in the administration, the billionaires, want.

When Trump attacks judges as "USA haters," he's following a script. But when hundreds of thousands unite in protest, authoritarians retreat. The task before us is to mobilize before it's too late.

So how do we combat this? - BUILD broad coalitions beyond party lines - MOBILIZE professionals, not just activists - SUSTAIN pressure through strikes and protests - FRAME it as defending democracy, not partisan politics None of this is easy. But democracy never is.

The authoritarian script: 1) Court rules against leader 2) Attack judges as biased/dangerous 3) Delegitimize judicial system 4) Create permission for threats 5) IF NO MASS RESISTANCE → Purge the courts 6) IF MASS RESISTANCE → Forced to retreat

A few things happened. Trump flooded the zone again. Ballot box burning, bombs threats from russia with polling places evacuated in mainly swing states, Elon hacking/paying ppl to vote, Voter suppression, purged votes a few days before the election (trumps judges let him). Rigged election.
