In 2016, Ken Paxton had the audacity to sit at my table and break bread with my family knowing full well that my son is trans, then SIX YEARS LATER wrote an opinion stating that families like mine shouldn't exist. Within days, a CPS investigator was in our home threatening to remove our children.🧵

@aoc.bsky.social hey can you inquire about the USPS pay for performance bonuses doled out to management this year?? And every other year??? One of the things they’re graded on is saving on overtime, even as mail piles up in postal facilities and tractor trailers.

Does Trump think “windfall” is a type of windmill? (The piece he links to does not mention wind energy.)

At the same time, so much collective action failure right now: billionaire licking Trump's boots, some Ds trying to look "reasonable," others focused on intra-party factional goals, media quiescent and trying not to be persecuted. Shocking how pliable everyone is compared to December 2016.
It's remarkable how quiescent Democrats are - Trump is poised to inspire a major thermostatic backlash, midterms are now more favorable to D coalition, and Trump becoming a lame duck will soon inspire chaotic jockeying to replace him. The question is whether anyone is as savvy as McConnell in 2009.

In Trump II there’s so far only one Black cabinet member: once again to head up Housing and Urban Development.

He understands “urban” doesn’t mean “Black,” right?

Lori Chavez-DeRemer has built a pro-labor record in Congress. But Donald Trump is the President-elect of the United States—not Rep. Chavez-DeRemer.

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s
