We’re waiting, JD.

We're 1/8 of the way through this nightmare. Keep fighting!

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

Lmao. The new GOP position is that as long as the crime is blatant and in the open, it’s fine. Absolute clown party.

💯 this!!!

Unemployment up. Stock market down. Mortgage rates up. Consumer confidence at worst levels since the Great Depression. Are we great again yet?

Early voting today in Wisconsin

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks… “The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government. 🧵

I like this idea

With Social Security, don't get too caught up talking about the minutiae. THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE AWAY SOCIAL SECURITY. Lead with that every time, then talk about how: removing offices, ID verification, bogus fraud claims, layoffs, etc. Set the narrative now. It's not alarmist. It's happening.

Please remember this is our country. Don’t let Trump or Musk persuade you otherwise. If you don’t like what they’re doing to our country, say so.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Yes

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.

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

It's getting a little North Korean around here.

Spot on from @chrismurphyct.bsky.social

I went to my Congressman's local office today. First off, they were surprised that I was there. They said they had been getting phone calls, but I was the first walk-in. That said, the phones were not ringing off the hook. If the DC phone lines are busy, try calling the local office.

A couple of (actually serious) thought-experiment questions on where we are and where we’re going: If a bunch of sociopaths are destroying the federal government from within, why should we pay federal taxes? And if they succeed, who’s going to make us pay those taxes?

Let me emphasize: Elon Musk has not been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never actually enacted. No one other than Trump has given him any authority. Democrats and any Republicans with a spine need to step in and stop this madness. Call your rep now (202) 224-3121

The first Senators to actually do anything about the Trump admin

In the Handmaid’s Tale the extremists gained power by freezing people’s access to their money: bank accounts frozen, credit cards don’t work. Sounds insane but if you have control of government payment levers and private companies willing to do your bidding…dystopian fiction is our reality now

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Out of nothing he created a significant crisis. He turned a friend into an adversary.

This is simple but useful, even reassuring. From the great democracy defender, Marc Elias.

🚨 🚨 🚨 HOMEWORK 🚨 🚨 🚨 The email address for federal workers to inform on their colleagues is [email protected]. Would be a real shame if folks flooded that inbox, rendering it useless.

Dear members of the press, Can one of you, PLEASE just ONE: When Trump says we deleted all the evidence, please for the love of God, push back. The evidence is all here: www.govinfo.gov/collection/j...

None of what you saw today was normal. Shame on those Democrats and 'liberal media' journalists who helped normalize it. A narcissistic insurrectionist using neo-Nazi rhetoric, who should have been disqualified from running, who should have been tried & convicted long ago, is now president again.

Is Trump suggesting state owned media? I can’t stress how dangerous this is. I’m also concerned no one will care because they’ll get to keep their TikTok

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆
