The 5th Judicial Court just shot down Louisiana’s attempt to gerrymander voting maps citing it violates the Voting Act. This sets precedent and is immediately binding in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.
You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?
Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.
You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

"If there is even the slightest possibility of a second fascist era, we need to redouble our efforts to stop it. The first fascist era killed tens of millions of people in a world war, six million people in a genocide… that's not nothing, that's not a minor detail of history."

He did have access, naysayers
Journalist and political analyst @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com discussed this "read-only" claim a day or two ago. It was positively silly, so much so that the administration had to reach down the org chart to find somebody that they could order to issue the public "DOGE has read-only access" claim.
SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.

Part of how we got here is down to Americans not appreciating history. The more we learn, the better our chances.

an epidemic of cruelty,
a poverty of decency,
a deadly allergy to facts,
a Christianity of coercion,
a defiant resistance to diversity.

Senator Chris Murphy:
"This isn't complicated to understand.
Elon Musk's Starlink was denied a license in South Africa and so he's been on a revenge campaign to get them to reverse their decision.
Our foreign policy is now just billionaire business tactics. What a heartbreaking corruption."
