Are there any Republicans left who are uncomfortable with the idea of being on the same side as the fascists and Putin vs. the democratic free world? If so, they better speak up now or live forever in infamy.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.
Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law
Time to do things that make him react to you.

Trump has canceled Biden's ethics rules. Critics call it the opposite of 'drain the swamp'

You are right. But it's 2025. Talking about it as if it will happen is how politics works. It also forces right wing media to talk about it and if there is enough Dem proposed legislation, Trump and Elon have to respond to the Dems rather than vice versa
Given that the Republicans have leadership & a majority in both chambers, such legislation proposals would just be symbolic efforts that won't even make it out of committee.

Really good piece. Other Democrats in power need to look at what AOC is doing right now and follow her example. One of the worst and most frightening aspects of this moment is seeing how many Dems in leadership roles seem resigned to defeat.
New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong
"Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

Other Democrats, from Schumer to Hochul, should follow her lead.

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

I don’t recall any airplane crashes happening under President Biden, let alone happening every week. Firing the FAA Chief, forcing air traffic controllers to resign, putting a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and firing an air safety commission was horrifically stupid.

BREAKING: France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Spain & UK sign a joint statement vowing to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty & demanding a role in the peace talks.
This is leadership.
It’s also unprecedented.

I just met with Community Health Centers from Oregon that told me providers across our state are starting layoffs because of Trump's funding freeze. Donald Trump is already forcing kids and families to go without the health care they need.
