Donold is now classifying protests at Tesla dealerships as ‘domestic terrorism.’
Protest at a Tesla dealership and you get arrested as a terrorist.
But attack the Capitol and you get a pardon.

Ben Meiselas: This is a time for fearless coverage. There's so much to report about every single day—what's going on in the White House every single day.. pushing back on that every day and saying it in a way that doesn't mince words. And I think that's what's connecting with our audience.

To America’s 2.3 million federal employees:
Don’t accept a buyout.
Neither Musk nor even Trump has the legal authority to make such an offer.
And even if they did, would you trust them to follow through on it?

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

Trump got Mexico to send the same 10,000 troops to the border that Biden already got them to commit.
Trump got Canada to agree to the same measures to fight fentanyl that Biden already got them to agree to six weeks ago.
Wow. What a dealmaker!

Mexico out negotiated Trump. Mex gets to do a troop rotation or add additional troops to the already existing 10 to 20 thousand troops at the border. Trump caved and lifted the tariffs and is doing a victory lap for accomplishing.... *checks notes* securing Mexican defences against the US.

The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.

Trump and Musk have already stated that their plan is to crash the economy. Picking a trade war with China, Mexico, and Canada will do that. They have no plan to restore the economy. This is how they plan to cull part of the population and pummel the rest into subservience.

Domestic terrorism is a REAL threat in this Country. It is fueled by the white supremacy/power movement. The Right Wing doesn’t want you to know. It’s been carefully kept under wraps by powerful politicians and business interests. White male CEO’s do not want to be the minority. Period.
Thanks for sharing this, and the link to the doc (in thread)--yes, this is critical. The OKC bombing is comparable in American history only to Pearl Harbor and 9/11, and hardly anybody remembers it as what it was: an act of domestic terrorism by the white power movement. (1)

There is no electoral college when you are voting for local and state officials. That’s why I said bottom up. So many important things happen at those levels and people who want progressive change don’t vote in those elections. It’s not an every 4 years thing.

How have you spent your morning? I’ve been reading stories about parity problems made by US insurance companies. Reporting from @propublica.org I deeply admire. Learn how insurers are working around parity laws and limiting mental health care. www.propublica.org/series/ameri...
America’s Mental Barrier
American insurance companies — quietly, and with little government pushback — have assumed an outsize role in mental health care. People in pain are paying the price.

Our real problem is wealth inequality and the rise of oligarchy.
I don’t care if you’re R or D or I or whatever.
That’s what is actually going on here.
Unfortunately, the country voted for someone who is dead set on making the oligarchy stronger.
They don’t care about us.
