Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

Legacy media outlets ignoring the Trump and Melania crypto scams, which at any other time with any other incoming Admin would be one of the biggest scandals in political history, shows how lost and unprepared they are for what is about to happen. They’re covering this like a reality show.

They’re planning a heist in plain sight.
“This is an enormous heist. They’re just backing the truck up to the government in front of all of us. A massive bailout to the crypto world,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on the GOP crypto bill.

I’m tired of the word “billionaire”.

And even more tired of them.

And tired of the increasingly accepted notion that they have some special skills or insights because they know how to legitimately/illegitimately accumulate money.

They ain’t all that.

That’s why I propose in the podcast setting up a large legal defense project …. Would require a lot of pro bono legal work and and funding. But I think it can be done. More lawyers need to get onto defending the rule of law.
Therein lies the rub. Most people can’t afford to fight. He’s been bankrupting people since the 70s.

When someone says “The Democratic Party needs to get back to its roots,” it means they don’t know history.

The Democratic Party was the party of the white working-class.

My only issue with Biden pardoning Hunter is if he stops there.

While Trump pardons war criminals, Biden should commute the death penalty, cancel all student debt, & protect abortion nationwide

Get bold. Take action. Slow down MAGA fascism! Fight!

Has anyone actually read the complete list of people Trump already pardoned & their crimes? I have. Every damn one of them. GTFOH w/your both sideisms & false moral equivalencies. People are sick of that old BS. I’m so tired of our hand-wringing weakness & refuse to participate.

So a reminder:

It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.

It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.

It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.

For the record.

Bringing my pinned Tweet along with me as I migrate here because this still matters & because we cannot normalize what Trump intends to do to DOJ. Justice should never be a political tool for presidents & their pals.

Elon played the long game. He never cared that he lost money on Twitter. He needed the platform so he could disseminate disinformation. And now he will contribute to the destruction of our democracy while raking in billions from government contracts and ensuring that Putin can rebuild the USSR.

I fully believe that Musk is working with Russia.
Oh nothing, just a person deeply integrated into the incoming administration’s center of power calling for the execution of one of his critics.

Donald Trump wants you to believe that he is all powerful and that if you fight back you will lose.

He wants you to believe that if you fight back you face danger.

It is time for us to build not a temporary resistance but a long term opposition.
