Senate is back in session today.

1/ So a quick 🧵on where things are at on the shutdown.

You get a lot of propaganda and spin thrown at you, so I want to give you the real, behind-the-scenes tea.

Yield man! Just close your eyes and let him do it. When you fight it only makes him angry.

Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations.

The US Attorney General asked for a response by today, so here it is: stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures.

This is step one in how we lose free and fair elections. It’s not that Trump will “cancel” the midterms.

It’s just everyone has to vote in person, and urban downtowns will be filled with ICE checkpoints and intimidating National Guard troops to “double check” that only citizens vote.
This is gibberish

Spot on. This is another method of warfare against democracy and limits on the executive power.
Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

We are, unequivocally, the Bad Guys.

We have been before, and we will be again, no doubt, but this one is particularly repellent.

If they ever invent time travel, I think we need to pass a law requiring everyone to spend one full year in an era before vaccines and environmental regulations. You survive that year, you get to come back to the present, and you'll never vote against public health measures ever again.

Good god, yes. Not sure what took so long to get to this realization, but stop approving nominees for a guy who is trying to become a dictator just because a given nominee seems "normal."
Here's something Dems can consider doing right now: Band together and tell Trump and the GOP that they will not get *a single vote* for any legislation or nominee until he ends Elon Musk's illegal mission to gut our government.

She truly is the most useless Senator
Susan Collins never ceases to disappoint.
Susan Collins says "After extensive consideration of her nomination, I will support Tulsi Gabbard to be the Director of National Intelligence." So that should be pretty much that.

I suspect USAID is first because it's "foreign aid" and fewer Americans will object. But once the precedent is established, expect unilateral dismantling of domestic institutions too

i know a lot of gov employees are watching my feed at the moment 👇
Giving access to SSNs, other data on government employees to non-employees like Musk is a violation of 5 USC 552a, and carries with it a penalty of $1000 per person whose data was accessed. We are building a case. Govt employees who want to participate should contact me directly

For all federal employees:

Before you are locked out of your systems, ensure you have copies of unclassified performance appraisals, awards & other relevant personnel docs.

If you have access to your office, grab your more important personal items sooner rather than later.

From a bored and affluent middle class who wanted another season of reality TV.
I just want to say for the record that when the history books are written centuries from now, I believe the election of Donald Trump in a free and fair election in 2024 will go down as one of the most senseless and self-destructive own goals in human history

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

This is a symbolic victory, but it’s a real warning sign that there are four solid Supreme Court votes to allow Trump to do anything at all. America’s democracy hangs by the thin thread of Roberts and Coney Barrett’s feelings in any given case.
