His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

The perfect way to prepare for whatever the State of the Union brings on Tuesday night — an event with Timothy Snyder about the threats of authoritarianism and what we can do to resist it! If you've read his book, you know this will be good. I signed up, join me! social.redwine.blue/s/NHYiPigz

The House Republican budget scheme is endorsed by Donald Trump and designed to help Elon Musk. It cuts Medicaid, undermines veterans’ benefits, and takes food away from children and seniors – while giving tax breaks to billionaires and big corporations.

Dr. Patricia Bath invented laserphaco, a device and technique to remove cataracts. It performed all steps of cataract removal: making the incision, destroying the lens and vacuuming out the fractured pieces. Dr. Bath is the first Black woman physician to receive a medical patent.

Trump says that "for the most part," Elon Musk has his approval to shut down government agencies, mass fire employees, and take over payment systems.
"If there was something that didn't have my OK, I'd let you know really fast."
He adds Musk "would know not to" have any conflicts of interest.
