"Neither Secretary Noem nor President Trump has the legal authority to abolish FEMA—that power lies with Congress. Furthermore, dismantling or eliminating FEMA will endanger millions of people who rely on the agency to help prepare for and recover from disasters."

"My message to the rest of the Democratic Party is if you are not willing to meet that bar, then step aside for somebody who will. Because we're at a moment right now where we do need people who are willing to fight, willing to show some spine, willing to break through in this media environment."

OMG!! Thank you!!! Now if they actually would.

Sigh. It is embarrassing. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul has initiated legal action against Elon Musk for buying votes which violates Wisconsin’s election laws.

So they don’t mind spending millions of dollars on an election but the poor babies can’t pay their fair share of taxes. 🙄

Who is driving the Trump administration's efforts to dismantle life-saving scientific research at the EPA? And what can you do to protect the science that upholds our nation’s environmental and public health safeguards? Read UCS’s Darya Minovi’s blog to learn more.

Casar: One of the most important things I learned is how so many of the most right-wing elected officials break things, do not want services to work, and then campaign on them being broken in order to gain political power.

We need a new free speech movement. And universities should sue the Trump regime for abridging the First Amendment rights of their institutions and their students. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/we-need-a-new-free-speech-movement

Our real Leaders need to be calling out everything the traitors do - over and over and over again……

Where are the real Presidents??? We need to hear from real Leaders.

Yesterday it was revealed that the Trump administration is expected to purchase $400 million worth of armored Tesla vehicles. After the story broke, the State Department's procurement document removed mention of Tesla. "Transparency."

Musk’s contracts and etc from us government get him around $8 million a day. Does that make him the new welfare queen???? 🤔

Gabbard -the head of National intelligence - my parents are spinning in their graves 🤬

Since 2011, the CFPB has returned over $20 billion to victims of financial fraud. For every $1 in funding for the CFPB, more than $4 has been placed back in consumers’ pockets. Elon Musk doesn't want you to know that it's one of the most efficient government agencies we have.

Um JD, your power comes from the same document you’re trying to undermine. So…. youtube.com/shorts/msOja...

Ya can’t make this stuff up 🙄
