I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".
The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.
Reminder for disgruntled Democrats: My enemy’s enemy threw a nazi salute and did damage to our institutions out of greed and self-interest. Never believe he is anything but an opportunistic white supremacist.
If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.
This would disenfranchise millions and amounts to a poll tax on women.
I’ve never been so happy to have kept my last name, which I am off to spell repeatedly as I call my Senators…
Fear has a way of being contagious.
But courage is also contagious.
If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
If you think you know all the ways Elon is trying to game the system for his own benefit, give this a watch. And if you live in Delaware, you know the assignment: call, write, make your voice heard.
For all those people who think “the left got more radical,” this is what the evolution of the GOP has looked like over the past few years.
When AOC and Adam Kinzinger are both furious at Chuck Schumer, for the exact same reason, maybe you need to give up the idea this is just a backlash coming from far left activists.
Get in loser, we're tanking the economy
@fetterman.senate.gov, don’t be complicit in this.
If you're in PA, call @fetterman.senate.gov early and often. Let him know that if he votes for this, he owns the damage Elon inflicts.

Dear business owners that voted for Trump,
You could have had $50K in capital and a robust SBA. Instead, DOGE is cancelling all your government contracts and putting you out of business so he can have the contracts for himself.
Now that’s how you write a lede.
post from @h_lee_justine on threads: AOC was just on live giving us advice of what to do and she had very specific instructions depending on if your reps were Dem or repub. I'll share them but first things first you know l've been begging you to call your reps. AOC highlighted that is the BEST THING to do right now and that they really do listen when they get non stop calls. So please pledge to me that you're gonna make some calls tomorrow to both LOCAL AND DC OFFICES of your reps. Tell me below. Now if your...
...rep is Democrat, she wants you to ask them to obstruct ALL CABINET PICKS until Elon is no longer committing illegal acts in the fed gov. It's the one power Dems have right now. Zero appointments, full obstruction until Elon is OUT! Ask for that Tom. Use the 5 calls app or website to make it easy. Again, LOCAL AND DC Now if your rep is Republican, you're going to tell them that you will start looking for and campaigning for a challenger in their district this week if they don't act to...
...protect our data, the value of the US dollar, and integrity in our fed gov. She said she knows this seems like it won't do anything but to trust her, these people care. And they're hoping you get so complacent you're silent and they don't have to worry about re election. If you have any kind of platform with a following, tell them you'll use that to campaign against them. If you're a part of a large community group, even just a community garden, tell them you'll tell everyone locally...
..what they are or aren't doing to protect us from the coup by Elon Musk. You know people in your community. You have a voice. Tell them specifically how you'll use it. It matters guys. Everyone is scared right now. Apply pressure and tell everyone you know to
thread with @aoc.bsky.social’s advice for this moment, and it involves calling your reps.
not sure how? use 5calls.org (they have an app too).
Notable that Elons crew of incels and edgelords are full fledged men for the purposes of being given the keys to car to run the govt. But for the purposes of being accountable for their actions they’re just kids from good families with youthful indiscretions.

Everybody on team "didn't vote for the felon, the dude-bro takeover, the war on Denmark (and decency), ethnic cleansing, an end to women's rights, an end to LGBTQ+ rights, the end of settled vaccine science, etc." consider making this app part of your morning routine. apps.apple.com/us/app/5-cal...
I mean, it couldn't *hurt*.
Sure, lead with fawning fanboying and bury the conflicts of interest and "harbinger of the destruction of our basic institutions" quote.
This Fiona Apple narrated explainer PSA on how to film (and release footage from, not livestream) ICE arrests is exactly what we need from people with production skills right now and is worth about 3 million celebrity “imagine” covers in terms of survival utility
No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment.
One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.
Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
