Leah and I released the new Indivisible doc, "A Practical Guide to Democracy on the Brink," after spending the post-election weekend in a cabin feverishly writing, editing, and rewriting. TNR describes it here as "refreshingly blunt." I think it holds up pretty well 5-ish months later.

Trump's plan to close the Dept of Education is illegal. Only Congress can do that.
But what's the plan here?
Trump knows his biggest enemies are educators and younger generations unafraid to speak truth to power.
Attacks on education are central to the fascist playbook.

As Elon Musk guts entire government agencies and fires thousands of federal workers that deliver vital services to the country, remember that his corporations have received at least $38 billion in government contracts over the past 20 years.
Yet will any of this be touched by DOGE? Of course not.

‘Make them pay’: Canada puts Trump’s ‘first friend’ Elon Musk’s Tesla in the crosshairs of tariff war
Canada’s EV adoption rate is outpacing that of the U.S., with nearly 17% of new cars sold in the third quarter of 2024 being fully electric, compared to just 8% in the US.
