We have to remember that the American public being misinformed and lacking knowledge of what’s happening right now is only their fault *to an extent*
Our entire media ecosystem has been purchased and controlled by billionaires and oligarchs.
A misinformed public is MANUFACTURED AND INTENTIONAL.

Democrats have a very reasonable solution, just about the most reasonable solution there is: the executive branch stops lawbreaking and instead honors the Constitution.
The alternative—accepting the White House illegally ignoring Congressionally-passed budgets—is the unreasonable stance. Obviously.

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

Am I correctly interpreting this to mean that Trump and Musk are about to fuck up people's CANCER CARE? Because that's absolutely something to call your R reps about every damn day. reps.fyi

Hey, while we're talking about erasing history:
In 1949 the US military held its first Aeriel Gunnery Competition, later known as "Top Gun."
The best of the best competed in dogfighting and other skills. The team that won, was the 332nd: The Tuskegee airmen.
So they refused to announce a winner🤡
