Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now. Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings. I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them. Get local media there. Make it real.

Leaders of the free world stand united in London The United States is not among them

Richest guy in the world telling us we can’t afford to have our government fund cancer research.

Here’s an idea: If “waste, fraud and abuse” are actually being uncovered, could we see a couple examples that can be investigated and confirmed by an independent 3rd party? Because I believe DOGE is theater.

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

yep

This doesn’t exist and will literally save $0

Donald Trump wants to pick and choose which journalists are allowed in his press pool. This is what dictators do.

Senator Chris Murphy torches Elon Musk: "The scope of this greed is something we have never, ever seen before in this country, and we should not accept it as normal in the United States of America." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

About time.

The RNC chair says it again -- the only function of the RNC is voter suppression and election subversion. It is time to take him literally and seriously. Sign-up to Democracy Docket to stay informed. www.democracydocket.com/me-subscribe...

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

I just heard...about 5 minutes ago...Rachel Maddow said that Trump has announced he is going to INCINERATE $500 MILLION dollars of COVID-19 tests...that taxpayers have ALREADY paid for. Something needs to happen...fast. This is bullshit that cannot continue. This. Cannot. Continue.

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

It seems to me that if Musk has proof that millions of social security checks have gone out illegally to dead people, he should be presenting that evidence in front of a grand jury under oath tomorrow instead of shitposting it on social media. When can we do this under oath?

Deceased 🤣💀

This former US Atty supports the courage of Danielle Sassoon, the acting US Atty in SDNY, who put service ahead of self & refused to let politics interfere with prosecutions. True American hero. Thank you for your service, Danielle. You are the best of us. Who's with me?

This is like a bank robber getting to fire the cops and disable the alarms just before he strolls into the bank lobby.

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

That’s nothing. I found 13 contracts awarded to SpaceX since December totaling $77M. 1/

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

Nailed it 🏆

Wait, I thought Trump could end the Ukraine war in 24 hours.

We could’ve had Tim 😭

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

I’m sad to learn that my law school classmate, Kiah Duggins, died in the DC plane crash last night. Kiah was an exceptionally talented civil rights lawyer and aspiring legal scholar. I hope you’ll read about her work and the causes she cared about, some of which I’ll 🧵 below. What an immense loss

Make Cancer Great Again 😡

Imagine if a democratic president did this www.nytimes.com/2025/01/28/u...

Literally happening as we speak

Anyone an expert in coffee futures and prices, that could comment on the impact of a 25 PCT tariff on Columbia on the price of coffee for American consumers ?

Preparing mass layoffs of civil servants in order to replace them with loyalists is another move from the authoritarian playbook www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

For Elon Musk and Donald Trump, “government efficiency” means cutting programs like Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and veterans benefits. I’ve got a better plan. time.com/7209307/elon...
