Democracy Died @democracydied.bsky.social · 10/02/2025
Let me be clear: you can't INCITE an INSURRECTION, THREATEN your investigators, PARDON all your co-conspirators, FIRE all your investigators, DESTROY GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS and its ESSENTIAL SERVICES without *ANY* authority to do so, BYPASS Congress & IGNORE COURT ORDERS, without it being TREASON.

We found the real fraud.
(above an image of Elon Musk) While Elon Musk was busy slashing consumer protections and food for poor kids, the Trump administration agreed to pay SpaceX another $38,858,978

(below the image) Trump and Elon aren't uncovering fraud, waste, and abuse of power-they are creating it.

ppl getting angry at this but he's talking alliances and he's 100% right- you cannot trust a country where every 4 yrs the foreign policy does a complete 180 & tears up treaties and reneges on deals and withholds payments because some sheep farmers in Wisconsin think too many black women have jobs

Keywords like "gender," "ethnicity," "disability," and even "climate change" were used to flag NSF grants in a Republican report that scrutinized over 32,000 research projects for DEI content.

Senate Republicans flagged thousands of grants as "woke DEI" research. But what does that really mean?

WATCH: “You just said something that’s not true — that tens of millions of dead people are on that list… but the same report you cited said almost none of them have received Social security.” Trump’s Press Sec hides behind saying they “suspect” it, then runs away 🤔

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Citizen's United made political leadership submissive to the billionaire class. They own the media & GOP, corrupted SCOTUS, the DOJ and soon the FBI. We need law enforcement allies. An example of what we are up against is the Epstein customer list remaining sealed. That list is low hanging fruit.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.
