Smooth, Dark Brandon, smooth!
No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by “executive order” a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.

The same old s*%t from the GOP.
If these Republicans kowtow to Trump and ignore taking care of the American people, a government shutdown will occur this Saturday at 12:01 am without action from Congress.
And there’s no fallback plan.

Trump opposes funding bill, pushing government closer to a shutdown
Elon Musk joined a wave of right-wing fury against a bill to keep the government open. Now, the president-elect says he wants big changes, too, before this weekend's deadline.

"We have to let go of the notion that “mainstream media” is a category reserved only for journalists guided by a professional code of ethics, a mission of public service, and an aspiration toward objectivity or at least fairness."

The ‘Mainstream Media’ Has Already Lost
The newspapers and networks of the 20th century are ceding ground. And the people taking their place aren’t playing by the same rules.

One of the problems going forward, is that the people who weren't paying attention enough to understand the stakes of the election and prevent this outcome, also won't be paying attention enough to help push back against what is coming.

Isn't it your time to show some heroism?
