This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Amazing!

This is how you message and educate it also is how you build understanding and power. @aoc.bsky.social is doing things correctly here and is showing she is the only leader in the party. Will be interesting to see what community is built to counter Trump that is both national and international

Here are the judges assigned to the lawsuits challenging Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order: ACLU suit: Normand Laplante (Bush)   18 states suit: Leo T. Sorokin (Obama)   Doe suit: Leo T. Sorokin (Obama)   4 states suit: John C. Coughenour (Reagan)

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

Dozens of pets from California will be in need of homes here in Seattle next week.

That we really will regret some day. (I regret it now!)

What did Johnson sellout to become Speaker? Social Security or Medicare? Or perhaps Veterans?

The sad reality is, the overwhelming majority of Americans don't know there's a voter for the Speaker going on, don't care & won't be able to name him after the vote. This is what happens in a country where civics education is no longer universal. Its absence lets darkness settle in over democracy.
