This is the ethos of project 2025, dismantling the federal government by any means necessary
by freezing all federal grants, trump is fundamentally transforming the relationship between the executive and congress. he is asserting dictatorial authority over federal spending, transforming congress's lawmaking powers into advisory authority. it is a constitutional crisis

“Trump’s demand that Smith’s report be suppressed is a useful reminder that he really hates truthful accounts of January 6th, even if—especially if—they are based on testimony under oath from many different individuals, including many who worked for him.“

Jan 6th was a violent attack on our country, not a “day of love.” The truth is well documented, witnessed by dozens of GOP officials, it’s up to us to defend it against the relentless lies. My latest:

So now some of these so-called Caitlin Clark fans are mad because she acknowledged and elevated the contributions of Black WNBA players and that benefits from white privilege. In short, some of them are mad CC isn’t the racist they wanted her to be.

Q&A for #NickelBoys last night. This movie is beautiful in a lot of ways. It’s visually stunning & challenges the audience in following along for an unconventional ride. It also challenges the audience to arrive with some understanding of modern American history, without holding their hands. Bravo

The Republican House majority may very well end up being the smallest in 100+ years.
Just 1 GOP defection and the Dems could kill a bill.
Those motherfuckers think they handed that rapist felon traitor a “mandate.”
Not even fucking close.
