Homan’s effort to use the power of the federal government to intimidate and silence political opponents is both dangerous and par for the course for the Trump administration. But it also demonstrates MAGA’s weakness. And go @aoc.bsky.social! www.publicnotice.co/p/aoc-homan-...

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

Thom Tillis just handed the reins of the FBI to Kash Patel, a man who publishes enemies lists and spreads dangerous lies about the government. We deserve leaders who serve the people and the rule of law, not use the FBI to attack political opponents.

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We don’t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we don’t get invited on shows & don’t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Murphy: "The game is clear. We can see it. They're not even hiding it. There is not a rule of law anymore. There is one set of law for people who are loyal to Donald Trump, and there is one set of law for people who care criticize him. That is not democracy."

Murphy: "Let me say that again. The man that my Republican colleagues are about to vote to lead the FBI believes there is irrefutable proof that the agency he is about to lead secretly organized the violent assault on the Capitol. That is bananas. My Republican colleagues know that."

Be clear. $8 billion was an error. They misread $8 million! And it’s not saving. It’s cutting services, necessary research, assistance to millions here and overseas, and enforcement of laws that protect consumers and workers.

Chris Murphy: "This deal that Donald Trump just cut with the mayor of New York -- it's a big deal ... they did that out in the open on TV because it's a signal to everybody else out there that the law will be applied differently to you if you are loyal to the president."

A great clip about what Hochul would have to do to remove Adams. It’s a long road. To be clear, I think it’s a road she should travel. I personally think doing nothing is the wrong thing to do.

Can we also keep in mind that while Zelenskyy like Churchill 1940-45 postponed elections, Trump in peacetime tried to overturn by violence an election he lost - and has since pardoned all the co-conspirators in his attempted coup?

Democrats must make clear that, of course, we believe in changing government for the better - and show how different that is from Trump's destruction of government's capacity to protect workers, consumers, and families.

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.
