Elon doesn't seem to understand how the federal government works.

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

yeah I bet

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

I’ve watched Homan speak hundreds of times. He’s a meathead, but he doesn’t garble his syntax this bad. Dude might want to skip the martinis with dinner if he’s going to live on TV night and day. bsky.app/profile/atru...

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

Here is the ad the Washington Post refused to run about Elon Musk this weekend. And here is the ad the Post was happy to run by a rightwing group funded by Musk that smeared me in October. I started Democracy Docket to be fiercely independent and prodemocracy. Check it out. www.democracydocket.com

"The courts can help. The media can help. Civil servants can help, by making clear what is happening, and resisting the onslaught as best they can. Even a little malicious compliance wouldn’t hurt. But there is also something called Congress."

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

The VP of the US responding to a journalist. What a great role model for our kids.

Mayor Eric Adams intends to sue the Trump administration over its clawback of $80 million in federal funding meant to cover the cost of housing migrants in New York City, according to a letter from City Hall.

It’s cute he thinks Trump would read this. And care if he did.

I know I should not be laughing at this but www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

If you’re a Trump voter and you’ve been fired from your job as a civil servant, contact me using the info in my bio. I’ll keep you anonymous.

There you have it. The Economic Policy Uncertainty Index (www.policyuncertainty.com) just hit an all-time high, surpassing its previous high from May 2020 - the teeth of the #COVID pandemic. Consequences: worse investment climate, higher risk premia, (likely) higher interest rates...

Thank you to everyone who has joined the resistance! Our ranks grow stronger every day.

I’m having great difficulty right now seeing how our political system doesn’t devolve into violence.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

🔥 “Wake the hell up.” Former RNC chair @michaelsteele.bsky.social goes in on Elon’s infiltration into the federal government, accessing everyone’s personal info

Where you at Dems ? You fighting to get them far better severance or going to ignore them, and all others in similar circumstances?

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Melania Trump personally pitched her self-produced documentary about herself to Bezos over dinner at Mar-a-Lago. Bezos's Amazon then bought it for $40 million, with 70% going into her pocket. www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

If one person were tasked with destroying our country from within, this is exactly what the fuck it would look like.

So do we have to file taxes this year? It’s not like leon or 🍊💩 can be counted on to give money to us.
