I'm a big fan of crowdsourced google docs to organize opposition to authoritarianism. This is a good one.

Zelenskyy thanking all of the world leaders who support for Ukraine is an epic troll on JD Vance and Donald Trump.

Good morning. ☀️

EOs are coming fast and furious intentionally to splinter us off in multiple directions.

FOCUS on the disease - billionaires running the country for their benefit while using Trump to divide us.

Most EOs will be tied up in the courts. Protest the 💰.

This 3-min 🧵 spells it out.

🧵

I keep hearing this…

“The economy was great, and yet trump won on a campaign promise of fixing the economy. Why did people fall for this messaging??”

Well… let me tell you.

Because the economy is no longer a measure of how real, working people are doing…

This is all ridiculous. DOJ should just drop the case against Nauta and De Oliveira, thus enabling the report to be made public. Otherwise Trump’s DOJ will drop the cases anyway and then bury the report! A grumpy 🧵. 1/
NEW: Judge Cannon appears poised to further block the Justice Department from releasing Volume 2 of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s final report to members of Congress.

During a 90-minute hearing in Ft. Pierce, Cannon was deeply skeptical of the urgency to show the report to congressional leaders.

What’s that old saying??

“Controlling women is all fun & games until it tanks your state’s economy & costs you House seats & Electoral votes after the 2030 Census.”

Or something like that. #FAFO

Biden should take the position that he can pardon people just by thinking about it. So, if Trump’s Justice Department goes after someone, say Jack Smith, Biden can say, “Oh, I already pardoned him!”

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files.

It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.

Every legacy media executive should take a few minutes to read the comments to this post. They would learn a lot about why they are losing readers/viewers/consumers.
Of course the billionaire founder of Politico was surprised that people canceled their WaPo subscriptions over Bezos' capitulation to Trump. He cannot fathom people wanting to support institutions they believe share their values and aren't transparently hypocritical in claiming to support democracy.

Wow. Cheetolini receives 75% of the value of the new crypto tokens sold....allowing him to legally receive a $18 million bribe from a Chinese businessman who is under investigation by the SEC.

Watcha wanna bet that investigation magically goes away in 2025?

The purpose of the violent threats against Christine Blasey Ford wasn't just to bully and discredit her, but also to keep the next woman from coming forward.
All of these Republicans saying Hegseth’s accusers should come forward know exactly what happens when anyone who gets in the MAGA crosshairs will face. They are purposely daring these people to stay silent.
