Hey, @josh-kaplan.bsky.social this is really stellar reporting. I’m a bit concerned that you said “we’ve uncovered the first known example.” I’m wondering, can you speak to Myranda Kazos emailing you her investigative reporting on this exact issue a while ago? She’s been covering this for months.
NEW: We’ve uncovered the first known example of taxpayer money flowing from DHS to businesses controlled by Kristi Noem’s allies and friends.
It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecy—and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.
11,000 people showed up.
Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

MUST-WATCH: House GOP leadership refused to allow Rep. Brittany Peterson, who's on maternity leave, to vote remotely, but that didn't stop her.
She showed up, not only voted but also spoke out against the GOP budget proposal with Sam, who turned 1 month old today, in her hands.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

The New Orleans attacker and Las Vegas bomber weren't working together, as initially feared.
But the two acts have so much in common. Both were lost men who, because of toxic masculinity, got radicalized into believing far-right violence was ennobling.

What's crucial to understand about fascism is that it morally justifies itself with these sanitized, conformist fantasies. "Wouldn't it be lovely if everyone was a white straight Christian and we didn't have all this messy diversity?" is the message.
