Recent actions across government show an alarming pattern of silencing dissenting voices. We must speak out.

That’s why I’m launching a 1st Amendment Tour to Challenge Government Censorship and Control.

For the first few months of Trump’s second term, I was outraged by his abuse of power. But then I got bored by it all and decided to go back to writing about woke culture Joe Biden’s cognitive decline.

I’m so demoralized this morning. Every day, more of our democracy falls into the sea like glaciers melting, and every day there’s a new Substack about how terrible it is.

Democrats, say something. Don't leave them stranded like this.
DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. 🇺🇸

I'm hearing now that *every* technologist CFPB hired to investigate Big Tech was fired this evening. That's somewhere between 70-100 people.

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year.

2022: $0
2021: $0
2020: $0
2019: $0
2018: $0

Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

Every company that has a black person holding a job that a white person wants is going to be dragged through a wasteful legal gauntlet because racists can't believe that a black person could ever be the most qualified applicant for a job.

Not that it matters but SpaceX fraudulently submitted faked and incomplete test results to TCEQ and EPA last year, which is a felony that they used to put people in prison for, and the EPA ignored it.

Interestingly, in Loper Bright vs Raimondo, the conservative majority on SCOTUS ruled just last year that the judiciary can in fact overrule regulatory decisions made by the executive branch especially when those decisions are not specified by Congress.

All of this. ⬇️ people have forgotten their basic civics education (if they had it at all). If the institutions that enforce the law (DOJ, FBI, courts) are captured by the Executive, then the only law is whatever the Executive deems it to be.
People are delusional about what happens if Musk and Trump ignore the law, the Constitution, and court orders. Everyone is acting like this is a standoff over USAID and a few other programs, and then we'll go back to politics as normal.
