“Trump died on December 8, three weeks before Christmas. The news broke during evening programming. Within three hours, coverage had settled into rhythm: the same footage, the same talking heads, the same speculation. No one yet understood what his death would reveal.”

Kudos to Sen Booker. Watch what u can, but it is we that people need to wake up & engage. We the people are all that is left to reverse the trajectory we are on. Our leaders need we the people, they cannot do it on their own. They cannot do it without we the people standing up for our basic rights.
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

Elon Musk's plan to cut the Social Security Administration's staff by 50% would cause 37,000 more Americans to die each year waiting to receive their disability benefits while the average wait time to collect these benefits would jump to 412 days.

That is beyond unacceptable.

He speaks the truth. Wake up folks.
Musk says millions of dead people get Social Security. That's a lie. Here's the truth: 30,000 people die a year waiting for an understaffed Social Security to approve disability benefits. Musk's plan to cut Social Security's staff by 50% will make this tragic reality even worse.

This is a day that goes down In infamy.
Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

History doesn’t forget. This is a permanent stain and we are all going to suffer for it.
"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

A really important email from my friend Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social . As he says "this is a 5 alarm fire."

America is under attack right now.

We the people want to know! What about that blue line?
Dear Republican members of Congress from NY and NJ:

Do you support Trump and Musk's 20% cut to vital healthcare for 9/11 survivors, firefighters, police officers, first responders, and rescue workers?

Please explain. Right now.

Sincerely,
We the People

Trump's lawyers are absolutely flailing in the courts right now
February 19, 2025 at 1:26 AM
Reposting to no one who will read this. Exhausting.
… “only the President or the Attorney General can speak for the United States when stating an opinion as to what the law is.”

That is a LIE.
Trump official announces that Trump has signed an executive order claiming that only the president can speak for “what the law is”

(This is not how the Constitution works)

God speaks!
When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

We need the press to stay free!
“But the AP refused to knuckle under. The organization’s stand provides a model for resistance to tyranny, and a model for free speech, that much of American media needs right now.”

Carry that weight!
when the second cabal
of treasonous traitors
was sworn in
i had to make new armor
for the occasion
it's twice as thick
thus twice as heavy 
and though now
i stagger slightly 
under its weight 
believe me
i'll get used to it
