I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

Record breaking 25 hour lesson in the corruption and illegal conduct of the Trump/ Musk regime.
And it was bookended and spirited with John Lewis and Good Trouble.
Thank you John and Corey!

Imagine you're a Republican.
You control the House, Senate & White House.
You spent 9 weeks sucking up to Elon Musk and gutting vital programs. Your "mandate," you said.
You draft a budget alone, without Democrats. Everyone hates it. Your own party can't pass it.
And now it's Democrats' fault? 🤡

In which Elon Musk calls a US Senator and former Navy Captain a traitor, because he wants peace and opposes a Putin victory in Ukraine.
This must mean Musk supports Putin ahead of democratically elected US officials, The US military, and NATO. You can draw no other logical conclusion.

“You are a traitor.”
An absurd and insulting thing to say to anyone who posts what Senator Kelly did.
And even more insulting since he served as a U.S. Navy captain and a NASA astronaut.
Kelly was a combat pilot and flew 39 combat missions during Operation Desert Storm in the Gulf War.
