“These tools are vital resources for documenting, contextualizing, and analyzing the flood of federal activity that is fundamentally reshaping the US.”

This is pretty extraordinary footage
Dems on the House Oversight Committee moved to subpoena Elon Musk today, catching Republicans off as few Repubs were present.

Hilariously, Nancy Mace then lost control of the hearing as they tried to scramble to get their members to actually show up:

While Rachel Maddow honors everyday Americans standing up to Trump’s authoritarian regime, she also says the quiet part out loud: the GOP doesn’t care about their constituents—because they think they don’t need them.

They serve power, not people.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

Democrats Expect a 2026 Comeback. But Will Free Elections Even Exist?: Growing anger with the Trump-Musk alliance could signal a 2026 blue wave, but that assumes MAGA won’t mess with elections before then. Unfortunately, they’ve already begun to do so.

Just one more thing. Exactly one week ago, you posted this: “Fact Sheet: Donald Trump ends DEI madness and restores excellence and safety within the FAA.”

Today, you blamed DEI for the crash. How did something you eliminated cause the plane crash? Do you see the conundrum here?

Update: We’re up to 75 members of Congress on Bluesky, including 17 Senators.

A few notable additions from the last few days:

- @repandrecarson.bsky.social
- @rep-rosa-delauro.bsky.social
- @pattymurray.bsky.social

That’s around 1/3 of Democrats in Congress. Good progress!
