Trump and Musk are doing a $350 billion pump and dump with your tax money. Trump’s “Crypto Reserve” is a money laundering scheme and you are being robbed blind.

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

State and local governments have more power than they may realize to audit and investigate election integrity.

We can and must call on State Attorneys General, Secretaries of State, and county/city officials to urgently #VerifyTheVote in their jurisdictions — particularly in swing states. 🗳⚖️❤️‍🔥🙏
The single greatest failure of the Democrats was not investigating this election.

If Trump and his gang aren't bound by the law nor the constitution, why are you? Currently the system of checks and balances is being destroyed at a speed that would have launched most countries into riots or open revolt. This is a constitutional crisis and your constitution isn't doing so well.

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

The question is, whether or not we have enough good people who are willing to push back and to move together across lines of politics and religion and race and nation of origin and orientation—and to declare our interdependence from fascism.

Ethan from DOGE used to work for ballotproof. While he was there, he created a voting machine hacking program. The program uses algorithms to populate votes randomly. It also finds errors so crucial votes won't count. Trump lawyers file numerous lawsuits to have to voting machines across the US
