absolutely this --

Our latest: The Resistance is alive and well and angry. Please consider reading and sharing. No paywall.

We are not going to be silenced, and we are not going to allow Elon Musk and Donald Trump to attack Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security without strong opposition from Democrats in Congress.

lol

NEW — The National Treasury Employees Union Chapter 282 just emailed its ~8,000 employee members strongly advising them NOT to reply to the “What did you do last week?” email from OPM/Musk.

"It is vital therefore that Congress perform its constitutional duty and remove him from office. As voters, we need to make clear that we expect members of Congress to uphold their obligations and protect our freedom." - Johann Neem

Yes. Do.

Yes!

"Despite facing declining poll numbers and growing constituent unrest, President Donald Trump has publicly urged Elon Musk to intensify his efforts in downsizing the federal government." writes J.D. Wolf for @meidastouch.com

"The oval office and Air Force One are where Trump runs around like an incontinent puppy crapping all over the place. You gotta be ready wherever the droppings [scoops] may land." @mspopok.bsky.social says when talking about the AP's lack of access to these places. youtu.be/EWOUHUAsU3w?...

Exactly.

Elon Musk-"...Trump's live-in boyfriend." @theanthonydavis.bsky.social "Three major shifts have brought the US to this precarious moment: *collapse of campaign finance safeguards *expansion of executive powers over the last decades *dominance of tech industrial complex" youtu.be/sHTa6MUjDdE?...

72 million Americans are on the chopping block to lose their healthcare if Republicans pass the budget that came out of the House. AOC (D-NY) voices her concerns daily telling her colleagues on the other side of the aisle that people are yelling Don’t Cut My Medicare. AOC has no fucks left to give.

Ya!

Perfect.

She and Kamala wiped the floor with him.

If someone wanted to destroy the United States from within, would they do anything differently than what Trump is doing right now?

The last failsafe of any republican form of government is that the military is loyal to the constitution and rule of law over a particular leader. Cross that line, and you get Venezuela today and every dictatorship in history.

This is quite significant in many ways: the overt thuggery, Trump’s barely suppressed fury at being contradicted by a woman, the governor’s standing up, the total abandonment of the pretense of federalism, the continuing use of trans Americans the way Hitler used Jews.

Ukraine was warned it faced an imminent shutdown of Elon Musk’s vital Starlink satellite internet system unless it signed the extortion deal on rare earth minerals, Reuters reports.

lol

The DOE Warned Us Last Year Of Utility Bills TRIPLING Due To LNG Exports. @lisaremillard.bsky.social @aaronparnas.bsky.social @carlquintanilla.bsky.social @mcuban.bsky.social @svdate.bsky.social @huffpost.com @forbes.com youtu.be/qi7RcY194vI?...

General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, wasn't fired by Trump because he "supports woke policies." He was fired because he's a Black man in the nation's top uniformed military post.

Stop the steal — President Musk and Kennedy Center chairman Trump are robbing the American people.

"During the meeting, Ukraine was told it faced imminent shutoff of the Starlink service if it did not reach a deal on critical minerals, said the source, who requested anonymity to discuss closed negotiations." Astonishing betrayal of an ally. www.reuters.com/business/us-...

TRUMP: You have a man who has let a country that had the more beautiful cities get demolished. The most beautiful domes. FOX: But that's Russia's fault, Mr President T: 1,000 year old domes. Everything is demolished. It's sorta like Gaza F: That's Putin's fault T: I get tired of listening to it

It has been a long and grueling week. Thank you to everyone who offered kind words of support. If you want to follow everything happening to democracy in court, while also supporting pro-democracy independent media, please sign up for Democracy Docket. www.democracydocket.com/me-subscribe...

I cannot confirm this independently but I am hearing the same thing from a source. If anyone can confirm or share info about the definitive shutdown of the 2024 PRAMS data collection can you contact me on Signal at joshtpm dot 99 or via encrypted mail at joshtpm at protonmail dot com

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

"North Carolina senator Thom Tillis told people that the FBI warned him about 'credible death threats' when he was considering voting against Pete Hegseth’s nomination for defense secretary... "Tillis ultimately provided the crucial 50th vote to confirm." www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

Politico’s owner liked Vance cozying up to the Nazi-tainted AfD. Good to know.

i think it is cool that de facto first consul of the united states is a drug-addled maniac and deadbeat dad with a breeding fetish

This is terrible.

Re-upping my cri-de-coeur for the evening crowd:

"...Donald Trump has earned the right to propose, and in many cases to implement, radical new policy directions. But he does not have the right to violate the law, the Constitution, and the civil liberties of Americans in doing so." - Larry Diamond
