Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.

You named my 4 favorites right now. Specifically, the rest of the party needs to stop cooperating entirely with fascists. Make a shadow cabinet. Make noise and walk out of the SOTU. Above all, stop the flaccid TV spots that Jeffries and Schumer are doing. It’s embarrassing

Spain’s MEP Irene Montero: “Trump and Netanyahu want to expel the Palestinian people from their land in order to illegally seize Gaza.“ “For the sake of humanity, we must stop these criminals who believe they own the world.” 🇪🇸 🇵🇸

@kenmartin.bsky.social you need a same day response team to go after anything Trump says or does, Real Time. Real Time is the key. Tell elected officials to stop with their wordy, empty, posts. Give them a choice of three posts to use. Everyone on the same page.

I suspect USAID is first because it's "foreign aid" and fewer Americans will object. But once the precedent is established, expect unilateral dismantling of domestic institutions too

Democrats should propose an amendment to this bill stating that no one convicted of a felony or who has been shown to be in violation of article 3 of the 14th Amendment can serve as president or as a member of Congress. They could call it the January 6th Amendment. www.axios.com/2025/01/28/r...

This reminds me of what was happening at Citroën when the factory was captured by the Nazis in WWII. The employees were forced to make trucks for the enemy. And they did, with a very small production change: They moved the lines on the dipstick.

Just in case people don’t fully grasp it. The pardoning of insurrectionists is Trump’s way of building loyalty from militias and domestic terrorists to carry out unofficial acts for him

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

I love this so much! At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions. This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Any elected Democrat who looks at the events of the day and communicates “We’ll find ways to work with this” and not “We’re going to fight this” needs to go. I get that they will have to work with it on some practical level, but when Trump is in shock and awe mode, meet the damn moment.

Like a frog in slowly boiling water, people allowed a dangerous imbecile to take control without realizing the escalating harm. Now, they're at a point where the danger threatens everyone, but it feels too late to jump out. Even journalists are deadened by the heat.
