The top 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

Soon it will be too late. Congress must act. Republicans deserve relentless protests and demands for their acquiescence to this man solidifying power to overrun our democracy.

Yup. The GOP was bad long before 2016. It was bad in 2009 when I started blogging about it. It was bad in 2006 when Tom Mann and @normornstein.bsky.social wrote The Broken Branch. It was bad at least from the 1990s on, when it was the party of Newt and Rush. And it just got worse, worse, and worse.

Can we be clear here? Trump and his Musk/Vought ‘Axis of Destruction’ are losing in court because they are acting illegally and unconstitutionally. Full stop.

Good news: after we raised the alarm, DOGE has been blocked from accessing sensitive Department of Education data. Your Social Security number, income data, and personal information are safe for now. We will keep fighting back.

Didn't Justice Barney Gumble also have loads of debt (that magically disappeared)? Perhaps there's a running theme with these dudes.

Stop calling it polarisation. The world may be divided, but it’s not a “shame” when it’s a reflection of values. When some think lying is okay and others don’t, that’s not just a divide; it’s a moral line. Certain truths should be universal. Let’s start there.

My (only) hope is that reasonable Dems are voting to confirm pliant Cabinet members to invoke the 25th.

Trump is letting the richest man in the world wreak havoc on our government. It's unconstitutional and it's dangerous. Democrats must fight back. And that starts by voting no on his nominees. I urge my colleagues to join me. We cannot confirm any more of Trump's chaos cabinet.

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.

I love you, Professor Warren, have donated to your campaign and supported your 2020 presidential run but this is weak: "If he and Republicans decide to cower to Wall Street billionaires and try to destroy the agency, they will have a fight on their hands." THEY ALREADY HAVE.

How about we re-brand DEI as Donald, Elon & Idiots? Then every time they invoke that specter we can say, "indeed, it was DEI".

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

RE-UPPING: MOVE TO IMPEACH TRUMP TODAY. He is acting dictatorially to overrule house, senate, constitution. The process of removing him from office must begin NOW. The bill will fail. Doesn't matter. The party that just TRIES to impeach has won 13 straight elections Pod HERE: tinyurl.com/4udus4hy

On 21 March 1933 Adolf Hitler was officially sworn in as chancellor of Germany. The same day he pardoned 8,000 Nazis, who had committed violent acts, starting with the failed Hitler coup on 8 November 1923. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/21/u...

Is it fine to call everyone who voted for this president racist, bigoted fuckwads, or are people still trying to pretend this had something to do with groceries??

Trump to billionaires: I don't want you to feel cold, so I am moving the whole inauguration indoors. Trump to his devoted Iowan followers: Come and caucus for me in subzero temps, even if you are sick, and if you pass away "it will be worth it."

If I’m elected, we’re going to begin an audit of every single DNC consulting contract on Day One. Sunlight is the best disinfectant. It’s time to eliminate grift and spend to win. Let's choose who we work with based on our values, our coalition, and our path to victory.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
