Oligarch owned media will downplay any protest or movement it sees as hostile and try to control the narrative or scope of your goals. This is a tired tactic. They claim thousands are hundreds and call you mere “anti-Trump critics”. Don’t let that discourage you, your voices are louder. #3E

The Musk-Vance administration is resegregating the federal government at home, then going to Munich and telling the Germans they need to allow Nazis into the government. This is a fascist movement and we need media not afraid to use the proper words for what is happening.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

This guy doesn’t know what a democracy is. Nor does he seem to care about the concept of checks and balances…which was built into the governance of our country and threaded throughout our constitution to ensure a just and fair government.

The pattern is astounding in its consistency: They have no interest in the common good. They will never build, they will only subtract. They are incapable of creating anything meaningful, beautiful, or life-giving. They only know how to destroy. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/defeating-...

If Democrats don’t wake the fuck up, there’s a really good chance of a Dem version of the tea party movement taking out a few incumbents in primaries next year. The base is pissed and wants fighters. A lot of Dem electeds are just sitting on their hands and doing nothing.

As someone who grew up in a dictatorship in which the president is essentially a monarch to whom the rule of law does not apply, I am stunned by how many among my American friends are not alarmed by everything that is unfolding right now. Democracy is precious and surprisingly fragile.

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break. 🔗 www.wired.com/story/the-us...

The man Musk is amplifying is a brutal far-right dictator who arrests his citizens for everything from crimes to having long hair and puts them in what's considered the worst prison on Earth—where the expectation is that they will shortly die. Musk wants U.S. citizens sent there. He's utterly mad.

One thing for Senate Democrats to do is announce they will use every tool at their disposal to block Bondi’s nomination until DOJ appoints a special counsel (ideally with beefed up firing protections) to investigate the widely reported crimes committed this week by Musk and his band of DOGE goons.
