Just bought a garden gnome. I am going to name it Kristi Gnome because it's hollow, artificial, and my dog is terrified of it.

I can't believe I spent 4 years hearing from MAGA that Biden was destroying the economy even though it was in good shape, and now they're telling me that a bad economy is great because Trump is destroying it.

It's a cult man. There's no saving these people

Moments ago, Donald Trump signed a massive voter suppression executive order. This will not stand. We will sue.

In the wake of Trump supposedly "voiding" Biden pardons, I'm re-upping my recent newsletter asking why major media won't address Trump's mental unfitness. They had no problem going there with Biden, who was simply old, not deranged.
Trump is mentally unfit. Why won’t major media say so?
As well as being a would-be dictator, he’s unhinged and incompetent.

These aren't the actions of a political party aspiring to get reelected.

These are the actions of an authoritarian regime that does not intend to honor elections ever again.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

So many threads to pull here; the atrocious grasp of history & geopolitik, the glib lie about how the war in Ukraine began, the disgraceful abandonment of European allies. But it’s the alignment with the war criminal Putin, no friend of ours, that sticks out. What won’t Trump do to harm us?

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Not to get all political on you but actually I do think you should be talking to people you know about this
cool how Project 2025 went viral during the election, we were told Trump disavowed it and wouldn't do it, he got elected and started implementing it immediately and now we're being told "well this is what people voted for"

they very explicitly did not
The people now in charge of the Office of Personnel Management apparently don’t know how to scrub PDF metadata, and have exposed the original authors of the guidance they’re publishing. Two, Noah Peters and James Sherk, have links to the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.

Most of us look at the rise of Hitler and are stunned by the suffering and cruelty.

Trump and the oligarchs look at the rise of Hitler and see a playbook to absolute power, suffering and cruelty being the means to achieve it.

Under the GOP's SAVE Act, Tribal IDs would NO LONGER be accepted as valid identification to register to vote.

This is a direct attack on the voting rights of Native American communities.
