I am begging every Democratic committee, PAC, and candidate to get control of your damn email program right now and stop sending tone deaf fundraising emails that have nothing to do with what's happening. Stop listening to focus groups from a month ago. Stop the 2 approved talking points.

Just because it is in plain sight does not mean it is not what it is: A hostile takeover of the U.S. government by an unelected and unfettered power monger. Believe what you see, do not see what you believe.

Cyberbaron Musk called USAID a “criminal organization” and pronounced it “Time for it to die.” That’s sheer lunacy.

The Coup is Complete. All Hail The Broligarchy Presidency.
With $300 million dollars, Elon Musk was able to buy the Presidency, gain access to U.S. financial data, & amass power to punish his critics & enrich the broligarchy. What a deal!

🏛️ This is even more unacceptable and shameful: USAID's Memorial Wall - honoring 99 personnel who died serving our nation abroad - was just taken down. These public servants gave their lives. Their memory deserves better than erasure.

look I’m no messaging expert but it seems like the American people might be interested to know that Donald Trump just gave our social security numbers to a teen called BigBalls
Contrary to some info I've seen, 19-yr-old Doge staffer "BigBalls" Edward Coristine did not delete his X account, it's just renamed and is private.
Wired reported that govt tech workers had to defend their work to the Neuralink intern in an Office Space-esque scene.

DOGE personnel have completely shut down a congressionally mandated federal agency, they're pilfering through the U.S. Treasury as I type and House Democratic leadership is at an event telling the audience how much they love Israel.
These are not our leaders. Look to state and local officials.
