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

😕

Who is responsible for this? 🤣

Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

My sources in the Federal Government are telling me that the HR email is [email protected] — so no matter what you do, please do NOT send them examples of drivel to troll and mock them for their abject failure and stupidity.

Will you look at that? COSTCO didn't roll back DEI, and store traffic increased by: 5.8% on the week beginning January 27, 5.7% on the week beginning February 3, 4.6% on the week beginning February 10 Sources: Fortune and Retail Brew

📌 Stop doomscrolling. Read beyond the headlines. If something seems catastrophic, look for deeper analysis from experts. A single court ruling or policy announcement isn’t always the final word. latinolens.tonolatino.com/p/they-want-...

Alaskans Take A Stand outside of @lisamurkowski.bsky.social & Dan Sullivan's offices! The request: an in-person town hall with ALL of our federal elected officials. These tele-townhalls aren't enough. Face Alaskans, share your strategy b/c we don't understand WTH is going on, are scared & angry.

The Middle-Class Tax Break Hotline… doesn’t exist. 😵‍💫 💸 80% of Americans say CEOs, billionaires, and foreign investors shouldn’t get tax breaks... but guess who’s getting them anyway? (Hint: Not us.) 😤 ⚡️ Report by @navigatorsurvey.bsky.social crnt.link/nav-taxplan-... #NavigatorPartner

What Elonia is doing with our government agencies that HAPPEN to be investigating him… This is what, in Colombia, we call CHAN-CU-CO. youtube.com/shorts/g9eVE...

WORD

This 🤡 administration is illegally blocking BILLIONS in federal funding, and it’s hurting communities across the country. Congress already approved the funds. The courts have even ruled against this funding freeze ☎️ Call your lawmakers. Tell them to take action: (202) 224-3121

Good Monday morning. 🌥️ Yeah, whatever. Got the official notice that my son’s Medicaid has been cut. I did everything right with the impossible hoops thrown before me. The appeal process begins. If you think it can’t happen to you, wake tf up. They’ve chosen the wrong mom. Hell hath no fury…

Easy actions to take to push back against Elon’s illegal actions. Watch this for a recap. The description of the video has all the links you need. youtu.be/FLfDl8X3V5A

We have work to do. Let's get to it

TRUMP pre-election: I have nothing to do with Project 2025. ALSO TRUMP: 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Honest suggestion for @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social #dncchair meeting - tear up the agenda tomorrow. Don't cancel the vote but hold a press conference on the shit that's going down. Don't wait on Jeffries and Schumer. The media isn't going to cover it until someone treats it like an emergency.

The CDC web guide to help MDs prescribe contraception has been removed. We weren’t overreacting about Project 2025. It’s real and it’s happening NOW. This is a full on assault against women’s rights. No fault divorce will be next-Mark my words. Clip: www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2jV5Kvo/ WATCH

And just like that, the ones who were on the frontlines of our liberation, which were still fighting for, have been magically erased. I don’t exist. This. Is. Fucked. Up. #TransRightsAreHumanRights #NonbinaryErasure #WeExist #LGBTQIA #ProtectTransLives #FightForEquality #NoOneLeftBehind

He's working really hard to make life MORE EXPENSIVE for hardworking people. And also working really hard to help billionaires.

RFK Jr. isn’t just another bad pick. His confirmation would have real, harmful consequences for Latino families. We have to stop this. Call your Senators at the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121. Sample script in my Substack 👇🏼

"Puerto Ricans 🇵🇷 are citizens. Speaking Spanish is not a crime. And I don't know why I have to say this, but being 🇵🇷 and speaking Spanish is not a legitimate reason to detain someone. We need solutions here, not racial profiling cosplaying as immigration and enforcement." @kramos1841.bsky.social

Folks, with ICE raids happening all over the country (and today in my rural hometown), we must remember to stay vigilant for our brothers and sisters. Here is a link with the most up to date information about where ICE raids are happening: tinyurl.com/2p7a9d97

Let me put this another way… For some of us, no matter how great our success, or what we achieve, we’ll always be seen as a DEI hire—unworthy of our status. Just by our mere presence in the room, in their eyes, we’ve unfairly displaced a white man who Trump says is now the “real” victim—of equity.

As well as misspelling the name of Colombia, Donald Trump is going to push our allies into the loving embrace of China. But don’t say we didn’t tell ya. We did

Placing tariffs on Colombia 🇨🇴 just push them further into the arms of their #2 trading partner China 🇨🇳 who is eager for Colombian ☕️ coffee & 🛢️crude This is what happens when Trump³⁴ and advisors like Peter Navarro take the wheel

Colombia —> Country 🇨🇴 Columbia —> River 🌊

Colombia buys more from the U.S. than the U.S. buys from Colombia. So, if that idiot adds tariffs to things, Colombia will buy less from the U.S. farmers because it’ll become way too expensive. Colombia buys a lot of corn and animal feed from the U.S.

I got a lot of messages this week from people who are absolutely overwhelmed with everything going on. And they wanted to know what I am doing to deal with it. If that sounds familiar, I hope this resonates with you. I would love to know if this helped you in any way

Ice Agents are harassing Native Americans. Please pass this on. #ProudBlue

Did you hear any Republican excuses for Musk's Nazi salute? Reply with the most absurd(You can make up your own) or about their actual real evil Nazi plans. Please reply with #RepublicansAreNaziSympathizers because anyone not denouncing this sh't is indeed a sympathizer. Silence is complicity.

He’s trying to end Birthright Citizenship. Several states and cities are suing over this. So is the @aclu.org

The 14th Amendment is clear: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States… are citizens of the United States.” There are no footnotes or exceptions. Will this attack then lead to questioning my daughter's right to be a citizen? open.substack.com/pub/latinole...

I can't stop watching this... and it's JUST the trailer!!

The Laken Riley Act allows MAGA to indefinitely detain people in federal prisons w/o trials. Our leaders must block this blatant attempt to advance the MAGA agenda of peddling fear, sowing hatred, and grabbing power. Call your reps (script below) and demand they vote no. Vote will be on Tuesday.

Just left a vm with Senator Jon Ossoff asking WHY⁉️ According to his own vm, his office is closed; his staff busy. Fairly confident of the same for all 11 Democrats who betrayed us. But you can still leave a detailed message. Be respectful if you expect to hear back. Going down the list. ☎️ +👇🏽

Once again Senator Warnock’s vote on the Laken Riley Act speaks equally as loud as his word in proving that he’s a man of profound integrity, character, and courage. I will forever be proud to have been a part of Team Warnock in 2020 & again in 2022 and to call him my Senator.

🧵 I’ve received a lot of questions and comments about why I voted NO on the Laken Riley Act. Here’s why: (1/5)
