Musk and DOGE are closing local Social Security offices, making it hard for people with disabilities to access help. Frank Bisignano, former FISERV CEO, is Trump’s nominee for commissioner of Social Security. He is likely to expand this. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Following Elon Musk, the world's richest man, two speakers at CPAC, Steve Bannon, who was pardoned by Donald Trump, and Mexican actor Eduardo Verástegui, have now given Nazi salutes. This is a major scandal + should push us all to mobilize, protest, and call out #CPAC for what it is: a Nazi rally.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

This is a prime example of poor messaging. “At 4am, Republicans just voted for more of your money going straight into the pockets of multi-millionaires.” Take a lesson from Pete Buttigieg.

Today I introduced a resolution condemning Trump for referring to himself as king. As the place where it was ratified, Philadelphia has an obligation to call out this assault on our constitution and reaffirm how treacherous it is for the President of the United States to declare himself monarch.

Trump’s plan to heist $800 billion from the money you have put into Social Security is not a surprise to you. It’s time to carry that to people who have not heard it, especially family members receiving benefits who voted Republican. We all understand the assignment. #RadioFreeAmerica

We’ll soon be hearing a lot about the “unitary executive theory,” but don’t be fooled — it’s just an attempt to disguise the president’s power grab in legalistic garb.

The reporters at Texas Observer have been doing incredible investigative work lately, the kind of work that places like the WaPo used to do with a much larger budget before it got bought up and then slowly hollowed out by a billionaire sycophant who'd rather go into space than live in a democracy.

I've noted some of the procedural things Democrats could be doing in Congress, but this point from @edgeofsports.bsky.social's great piece in the Nation deserves emphasis. This is basic politics, and it's baffling that every Democrat isn't doing it every day. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

What should Democrats be doing? They should be legislatively opposing everything Republicans do, grinding down their operation so it can barely operate. They should be on constant attack, berating and deriding their actions - on social media, in the press, and on air.

While everyone is focused on what DOGE is doing, Elon Musk is quietly spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on an April Wisconsin Supreme Court race. This race could have electoral consequences in future elections, like 2028 in a crucial swing state. Pay attention.
