Consistently. At every press conference.
A good way to destroy this administration and their attack on American democracy is to put a wedge between Trump and Musk.
We’ve got to get Musk out at all costs. And then Trump.

Elon Musk is a terrible president.

Elon Musk is a terrible president.
A friend’s 12-year-old son told me last night that Elon Musk is “Lex Luthor but with hair,” clarifying that no one has gone from liked to supervillain quite as quickly as that guy. And honestly why does a sixth grader understand that more deeply than the adults in my rural Southern hometown?

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.

it's not hyperbolic to say we're witnessing a coup.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

Where are the #Tennessee BlueSky accounts I need to be following? How about my media folks? And travel/tourism industry? I regret deleting my bird account before copying everyone over. #travel #media

I spent three blissful weeks in Australia pretending this was not the state of affairs back home. Alas, time to get back to work, friends. Here’s what my home state has been up to while I was gone 🤯👇🏼
We passed a bill in committee yesterday that felonizes elected officials if they vote against Trump’s immigration policy. Let that sink in. Duly elected officials will go to jail- will have a criminal record- if they do not vote for and support Trump’s policies.

Anyone else find it daunting to find their people on yet another social media platform? It’s just, like, exhausting, you know?
