bloodless coup. but many hearts broken
I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.
terrific NZ music in these sessions, well worth a watch
Some brand new music from Lawrence Arabia, performed last night at the #infinitysessions which I am having the time of my life directing. They're live at 7:30pm each night but then get taken down, save for one song from each artist. James' new stuff sounds great.

he was weak when majority leader as well.
82% of Indivisible group leaders in NY (who are presumably closest to Schumer) and 91% of Indivisible group leaders nationwide want Schumer to step aside as Senate Minority Leader.

R’s have the votes in the House to cut Medicaid. That could/should change. Voting for the “framework” might be easier than voting to actually enact Medicaid cuts, but R’s won tonight. We will fight this in Senate but it will come down to people outside of the capitol being sufficiently pissed off.

the legitimacy of the Supreme Court will be tested soon, they too will be fighting to keep their jobs, The short sightedness of the immunity decision may well be their undoing.

These false claims were trumpeted endlessly on TV and in print.

The prosecution and guilty plea of the "informant" who spread those false claims has received little attention.

This is how disinformation works.
Remember the FBI informant who claimed President Biden took millions in bribes from Burisma?

He admitted today in federal court that he made the whole thing up.

And that he started spinning new lies after meeting with Russian intelligence.

so it begins.....
Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

Reup: After I noted that 5 GOP Senators have suggested Trump's appointees should get FBI background checks, a bunch of people said, "They need to demand them."

My response? Make them. Get on the phone now.

Folks, most nonprofit publications this month are in NewsMatch, a year-end program by big foundations to match your donations.

If you read a nonprofit outlet & want it to thrive, THIS is time to donate or subscribe to them. Pick 1-2 & do it!

If you value Bolts, join us here: boltsmag.org/donate
The future of journalism is incredibly bleak. An industry already in crisis now faces this + heightened legal threats + the “nonprofit killer” bill + tariff-induced cutbacks in household discretionary spending. It’s existential. If you can, please support journalism now, before the worst hits.
Brendan Carr, Trump's FCC chair pick, is signaling his intention to punish broadcasters that the incoming administration believes has been unfair to them.

He's doing something else here, too: he's discouraging broadcasters from critically covering Trump moving forward.

wondering what you can do, support guys like this.
Hi Blueskyers. I run the organization @protectdemocracy.org which aims to do just that.

Over the past decade we’ve won countless cases to protect voters and truth, helped pass legislation, and unfortunately predicted much of what’s happened.

Follow and repost so we can keep doing that here.
