JD thinks you’re stupid, & he wants you to know that.
JD thinks your life is beneath his notice, & he wants you to know that.
Remember that - that he *wants you to know* it was his tie-breaking Senate vote - when he later tries to plead ignorance.

"Last time you spoke with us you lied to our face and said you wouldn't vote for #Medicaid cuts, but you've voted for the largest cuts in history.
Do you have any comment on the health care 67,000 people in your district are going to lose?"

In the end they will try to lock up every brown person in the country, whether they are a citizen or not. He will sign an executive order declaring himself president for life and the Supreme Court will uphold it 6-3. They will leave you no choice. They think so little of you.

Nazism in Germany was preceded by a financial crisis that made life unaffordable.
Fascism in the USA was preceded by something more gradual, but has reached a crisis point in affordability for the majority.
Increasing the debt at this moment is many things, but one of them is empowering fascism.

The White House has ordered the US Dept. of Justice to prioritize denaturalization: voiding the citizenship of US citizens.
Who will it denaturalize? "Any" case that it "determines to be sufficiently important".
Point 10 leaves the criteria opaque and arbitrary.

In a less imperfect world, Musk and Trump would be forever cast as killers of children, and this would be front-page news for months and the subject of Sunday sermons in every church.
NEW: The death shadow cast by Musk.
“When U.S.-supported soup kitchens were forced to close, babies starved quietly, their mothers said, while older siblings died begging for food.”
The world’s richest man did this to the world’s poorest children.
Don’t ever forget.
