Virtually every destructive thing Trump has done has been an abuse of power, illegal or both. He could be stopped. But he is enabled by his own party and those who have the power to stop him but don’t. They are all complicit.

Zelensky, the ELECTED leader of a free country, should not be expected to kiss the ass of the toddler. His people expect

@newsjennifer.bsky.social on the gripping and impactful DOGE reporting by local news outlets: "It would be both ironic and so very American if the rich and powerful oligarchs were finally stopped by the underfunded newsrooms and working-class reporters." jenniferschulze.substack.com/p/local-news...
Local news deserves high marks for coverage of the doge fallout
Reporters are telling gripping human stories, connecting the dots from DC to main street, going beyond acronyms to explain what government agencies do & giving voice to concerns of regular people

Elon Musk and JD Vance publicly supporting the neo-Nazis of Germany's AfD, just as an AfD supporter/Elon Musk fan kills 5 and injures 100+ in a terrorist attack at a Christmas market in Germany. Vance's pro-AfD statement came *after* the attack.
It's bad. Not sure what else to say. Dark times ahead.
