Good morning.

Last night was a referendum on Trump's corruption, cruelty, and chaos.

But it's also not a coincidence these big wins came at the exact moment when Democrats are using our power to stand for something and be strong.

A huge risk to not learn that lesson.

Wow. Trump has fired the federal Veterans Affairs staff running the Veterans Crisis Hotline. This will have a major impact here in North Carolina.

@jeffjacksonnc.bsky.social out here doing the WORK. Who knew his first days as AG would have to be spent blocking so many bullshit EOs? Yet he’s still also working towards his campaign promises successfully too. Grateful to have him our state AG. 👏🏼

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

"Kendrick Lamar just upset every white person who relies on their surface-level intelligence to navigate a country that serves them incredibly well." Mmmmhmmm, I know that's right. Also, I need the details on those jeans. 👀

Lots of assholes now have permission to be assholes.

That is how permission structures work. Trump being elected gives the racists, misogynists, homophobes, xenophobes, etc permission to act hatefully. Picking a truly awful hateful SecDef just amplifies this further.
Kiss unit cohesion goodbye
Here's the thing about the Tuskegee Airmen history - there was nothing in the EO about it. Someone in the Air Force interpreted it that way -- which is far worse.

People really underestimate spite as a spiritual practice 😂.
Spite's a great motivator.

I wrote twelve books that way.

If you're feeling pissed off at the fuckery afoot? Spite, yo. It'll get you far.
