Did you know: Gislane Maxwell was transferred to a nice minimum security prison after talking with trumps lawyer.

A sex trafficker, was transferred to a nicer place by Donald Trump.

Wonder why? Also looks like GOP is the pedo defenders.

The purpose of these tariffs is to be able to lift them to those who bow down to him and sacrifice their dignity. That is what he did to the GOP, the billionaires, and is doing now to Big Law. Those who stand up will be punished, those who bend a knee and humiliate themselves will be rewarded.

Democrats need to stay in attack mode - AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Elizabeth Warren, Jamie Raskin, Tim Walz et al - a press secretary, perhaps Pete Buttigieg, and have their own press briefing EVERY DAY. Tell the American people what's going on and restrict press attendees to invited only.

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

Whatever you do, please don’t log on to X and retweet things about “BigBalls” and the other DOGE staffers who are hijacking the government’s payment systems and citizens’ private data.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.
We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

Canadians booing the U.S. national anthem isn’t something I ever thought I’d see, but this is what happens when you let a psychopath criminal with isolationist and protectionist policies back into the White House.

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

This is such a terrible headline, I hesitated to share because I don't know what to say other than legacy media is broken. Games and puzzles have replaced fearless journalism.

Support independent media.

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

🚨🚨This is no standard transition of power under our democracy. This is a hacking of our federal govt.

Time is now for @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social to lead an all out resistance from Congress. No longer there should be a single Dem vote for any thing from the Musk/Trump regime.
