As I said to a few people over the past week, this is an #attempt at the #Greatest #heist #ever--and I don't mean great as in "wonderful", rather great as in "largest". We should *all* be #bipartisan #furious!

Thank you, @hcrichardson.bsky.social!

I’m going to start tonight by stating the obvious: the Republicans control both chambers of Congress: the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Golden Toilet Bonespurs demands their loyalty. His is transient, whether for 5 minutes or 5 months--or however long it takes him to wash his hands.

I wonder what makes those doing his beck and call now think things will ever be different for them... ... ...
Wall Street Journal editorial board:

"This looks like a new low: Trump reportedly has ordered an end to security protection for three former advisers who are living under threat of assassination by Iran. Pray it won’t happen, but what if one of them now gets attacked?"

If you haven't read this yet, do. He needs to be impeached. If I'm saying this at the end of his first week back in the White House, imagine how bad it will be by 2028. He wants you to be frozen, fearful of what's next. Don't just be afraid: Get ANGRY and PUSH BACK! NOW--before it's too late!

The IGs fire back.

Trump might eventually get his way...but don't make it easy for him.

Don't let him circumvent a single law.

Challenge every amoral, unethical, unconstitutional action.

Fight him tooth and nail every step of the way.

None of these federal workforce executive orders are designed to help the American People. They are designed to stoke fear, sow chaos, and get experts who would otherwise push back on harmful policy to quit their jobs or be fired.

Ask me how I know.

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you.

Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

What a bummer! I thought it was just the gif I posted. It's not. I just noticed there are several others missing too.

Despite that, I'm sending wishes to all of you for a very Happy Holiday!
