Lech Walesa, Polish Labor Leader Who Fought U.S.S.R.’s Power, Joins in Horrified Letter to Trump www.nytimes.com/2025/03/03/u...

Musk has billions of USD in government contracts, mainly from the Pentagon. Musk needs to be investigated. As so often, the truly guilty tries to throw blame on the innocent. Stop this! Investigate Musk & arrest him for his crimes!

Call out Musk's many misdeeds wherever you still can. It took Hitler two months to instal full dictatorial control. Musk might succeed to do so faster with modern technology.

I have repeatedly stated on @X that Musk is an authoritarian kleptocrat living on US state contracts. Not surprisingly, @X today claimed that I had violated their guidelines (insulting their ruler). I tried to respond, but my entrance is blocked, so goodbye X community! pic.x.com/QK6UWGBKAD

Hey folks: For those who've asked -- I've posted the conversation that Heather Cox Richardson and I had yesterday on Instagram on my YouTube channel. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtQ7...

THIS. Speak out. Object. Oppose what they're doing. EXPOSE what they're doing. Get in the way. Call your members of Congress -- not to persuade them, but to SHOW HOW MANY PEOPLE OBJECT. Show how THIS IS NOT NORMAL. NOT BY A LONGSHOT.

Elon Musk’s agenda takes aim at all of us including those who voted for Trump. Right now there are thousands of angry people as far as the eye can see at the treasury wondering who the hell elected Musk President?

👇👇👇 🚨🚨🚨 Put on the pressure. Get in the way. ASK LOGICAL QUESTIONS.

Members of congress are denied entry to the USTreasury Department. @maxwellfrost and others went there to"provide oversight on behalf of our constituents," regarding Elon Musk and DOGE.

Elon Musk has got to go.

This FBI lawsuit says something remarkable: That the Trump administration is trying to identify FBI agents, not just to fire them, but also to potentially create what amounts to a hit list for Jan 6 insurrectionists he pardoned. www.notus.org/courts/fbi-a...

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

And, as they’ve also done in other countries, they’re planning to shoot us if we protest. The imperial boomerang is very real. I’m going to leave it there and not say what else I’m thinking, but this won’t end well.

The criminal oligarch class and their greedy minions are basically doing to the United States what they’ve done to many other countries over the years, often in our name. I have to say it very much sucks.

Trump pauses all federal loans and grants. I know my community will be impacted because we flood and had monies coming. This will have impact nationwide. Hope it helps wake people up to how chaotic, incompetent and cruel he and his regime are. I gifted article. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/27/u...

I know some of you are questioning your approach to social media. I just want to encourage you, now is NOT the time to withdraw, but the time to get LOUD!!!

Why can't the US media be like The Guardian? So disappointing. They normalize everything!

Dear Dems, Where are the recounts? Seriously, you're failing us. Sincerely, The United States of America.

Also, Indivisible, which was awesome in the wake of the 2016 election, is preparing to be awesome again, and has a toolkit. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

This is a piece from 1995 that I read this week and simply cannot stop thinking about:

"It’s hard not to feel the same plummeting sensation in the gut that so many of us felt in late 2001.... We have all lived with the consequences. If there is still time for us to learn from still-living history, let us do so now, for the sake of life"
