I hope Wall Street has figured out two things:

1. Trump is a disaster for the U.S. economy.
2. There is no price at which many of us would ever buy a Tesla. I wouldn't take it for free with a $5,000 rebate.

I think they have an inkling of the first but are still in denial about the second.

Trump hates penguins…most logical conclusion from Trump’s tariffs of Antarctic territories without populations.

Senator Cory Booker @corybookerusa.bsky.social has now been filibustering on the Senator floor for over 17 hrs 20 min against what Trump, Musk, & Republicans in Congress are doing. Longest filibuster ever was 24 hrs 18 min by segregationist Strom Thurmond. You can watch on C-SPAN 2. Inspiring!

That’s why Elon Musk is spending millions on this race.

I have been a fan of Schumer for years, but he has to step down as Leader. He doesn’t get ignoring a Congressional appropriations is a Constitutional Crisis and we are at the moment when democracy is on the line. He is fundamentally unprepared to protect democracy as we are in the moment of crisis.

Call House & Senate members to say it is unacceptable to pass any appropriations bill that will just be violated like current one is violated. Until Constitutional Crisis caused by violations of appropriations is resolved to oppose by all means at their disposal passage of new appropriations bill.

I think Dems should consider doing hearings of their own outside of Congress. Rent hotel ballrooms, bring our own witnesses, make our big arguments, get stuff on the record.

Early topics - illegal/unconstitutional disassembly of US govt, Trump selling out to Putin, his reckless econ policies.

Note to businesses: I am taking note of who has sales today to try to get people to buy things rather than support the national protest against what Musk & Trump are doing to our country. Your sale makes comes across as trying to undermine our struggle to preserve democracy. It isn’t a good look

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.
