You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

BASH: I remember a time when Republicans were very careful about the government having access to personal data

NOEM: Well, we can't trust the government anymore

As we start another week, my law firm is litigating 46 voting and election cases in 19 states. A team starts trial to protect the Voting Rights Act in Alabama tomorrow!

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of democracy and democracy is on the docket.

We’ve had checks & balances & separation of powers embedded into the founding of our national govt specifically because the Framers anticipated that some day an executive might come along like Trump. For over 2 centuries we have also had judicial review. It’s all under siege now.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out.

Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation.

Say equity, which a just society should pursue.

Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

The NFL removed the ‘end racism’ text from their endzones once Trump got elected, in a clear nod to the notion that racism won.

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

A judge awarded the trademarked name and symbols to a Washington church to help satisfy a $2.8 million judgment against the far-right group.

History is littered with democracies that lost their freedoms without seeming to notice while it was happening.

Let’s not become one of them.

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week.

Don’t let him.

WATCH: “$19000 a month? That’s pretty good, man… Whew!”

As @brotherjones_ pointed out, Speaker Sexton’s Chief of staff makes $19000/month (!!) while TN teachers make $3500/month — yet TN Republicans only offered $2000 as a one-time bribe to garner support for vouchers💰🤔

So the billionaire president’s multi-billionaire sugar daddy had his feelings hurt by the head of the FAA, so the billionaire president fired the head of the FAA — now there’s no one in charge of airline safety, and we have our first commercial airline crash in 16 years? Got it.

Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him.

This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.

Senator Adam Schiff torched Kash Patel:

"Mr. Patel may be, I don't know, but he may be the first nominee for FBI Director in history who felt it necessary to plead the 5th."

Schiff: I want you to look at Capitol police & tell them you're proud that you raised money off people that assaulted their colleagues

Patek: That's an abject lie. I've never accepted violence against law enforcement.

Schiff: You didn't accept it, you glorified it! 🎯

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.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.

He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.

It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.
