Elon—the richest man on Earth—is gutting the world’s largest provider of food aid. He could end world hunger single-handedly and still be the richest man alive. But he won’t. Instead, he spent 40 million on Super Bowl ads attacking USAID! Stand with USAID: share this counter-ad…

THIS is how we break the felon’s power. Rep. Jamie Raskin brings the wisdom, fire, and constitutional expertise to hold him accountable. Listen, learn, and fight back 🔥🔥🔥

grind the government to a halt stop voting for any nominees, object to every unanimous consent, do a rotating talking filibuster on the senate floor going over the transformation of the United States into Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s personal fiefdom act like what’s happening is happening

Unbelievably petty! The Spanish language version of the White House website was deleted after the inauguration yesterday. Look what happens when you hit the “go home” button!

Why should we work with two billionaires that are hell bent on destroying public benefits and healthcare. Democrats need to oppose their efforts with everything we got. There is no room for partnership.

Russian tv tends to have a clear sense of who Trump’s appointments will be and what they will do.

Elon Musk and Pete Hesgeth are the kind of tough alpha males that America needs, according to their mommies

So a reminder: It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom. It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president. It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child. For the record.

Oh.

As an Indian, as someone who lived in Egypt, and who has, modestly, remained committed to my politics despite that, here are my rules for living under fascist regimes: 1) Focus on organizational structure. 1/

So, Matt Gaetz resigns to avoid the release of a report detailing his sex trafficking of minors and trump appoints him to the top law enforcement position in the country? The party claiming they want to “drain the swamp” has always been the fucking swamp.

A Fox News Host with nazi tattoos for secretary of defense. What could possibly go wrong.

New in PN: "What’s most striking in the Time Magazine interview is that Trump, even after four years as president, has virtually no grasp on any policy issue beyond empty talking points, most of which are lies."

ATTN NEW YORKERS The NY Public Library has a plea out for signatures to push the city not to cut their budget and force them to reduce collections, end services, reduce maintenance, and close 2 days a week. It takes mere seconds to sign. They need 50,000. Pleas sign and SHARE WIDELY

Just listened to Judge Luttig make the essential point that disqualification under the 14th amendment isn't undemocratic, it's the *behavior* that results in disqualification that is undemocratic. Attempting to overthrow an election to stay in power is the antithesis of democracy.

Honored to write the Rolling Stone obituary for the worst American of the post-World War II era. Rot in piss

Before you say something mean about Henry Kissinger, take a breath and see if you can think of something meaner

Normally I would have something snarky to say, but at this point everyone needs to take Trump and his team at their word they are laying out the plans for a military dictatorship and fascist violence of the kind that no one in this country has ever experienced. This is explicitly fascism.
