5/There is an unholy trinity alliance going on right now between the Technocrats (Vance, Thiel, Musk), Theocrats (Evangelicals-including Justice Alito), and Neoconfederates (Heritage Foundation-it's in the name). We are going to see sweeping changes to the American way of life over the next 2 years.
And just like that…the neoconfederates have cemented their power. Project 2025 will reach 2/3 implementation. I wonder when they will start restricting travel.

@reverendwarnock.bsky.social: "That [Trump] would use this moment - when bodies are still literally on the bottom of the Potomac and families are being notified - to advance his agenda of attacking DEI and Democrats speaks volumes. Not only is it shameful, quite frankly it's dangerous."

Gov JB Pritzker (R-IL) signs order prohibiting Jan 6 rioters from state employment in Illinois:

“I hereby direct CMS to apply the State Personnel Code and consider
any participation in the January 6 insurrection as infamous and disgraceful conduct that is antithetical to the mission of the State”

This framing—which emphasizes Trump’s combativeness”—says nothing about the absurdity and racism of his claim.

Combative Trump blames DEI policies after air tragedy
The president started his White House news conference as "consoler-in-chief" but then pivoted into unevidenced political blame, writes the BBC's Anthony Zurcher.

Beware martial law and suspension on the constitution are coming. This is not hyperbole. He is causing massive damage to evoke outrage and retaliation to justify taking total control. Next thing you know we have the HandMaid’s-Purge act signed into law.

Obama rode into the White House on a wave of populism. I believe the nation wanted bigger change than he was capable of given the backlash and pearl-clutching from his republican senate the majority of his presidency.

A Thread on why we are where we are as a country.

1. The reason there is uncontrolled money in politics is because conservatives passed Citizens United.
2. The reason the media is unserious is because conservatives threw out the fairness doctrine in 1987 under Ronald Reagan's administration.

Giving the PMF to George Soros has got to be one of the best trolls of the right in human history. Soros’ infamy will now move into fable or biblical proportions. Checkmate MAGA.

Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias.

He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was ProPublica reporter @josh-kaplan.bsky.social.

Rest in peace President Carter. One of his last wishes was to see a woman as president, and he voted to do so. I am sorry on behalf of this country for letting him down. He was like, F*&% this, I'm out!
