Wrote a thread, of disagreement, in response to this, which seems to equate 'people' with 'select elites.'

Is it just the ones who are inside someone’s womb? Asking for a friend. FFS.

They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

Trickle-down in one graph: golden shower. All rot leads to Reagan.

This. 1000x this.

Bookmarked for the inevitable surrender.

Trump and DOGE want to slash the FDIC's workforce by 20%, leaving fewer watchdogs on the beat to police Wall Street misconduct. Remember: the FDIC was created during the Depression to protect people's deposit accounts. Gutting it could lead to another financial meltdown.

Things money can't buy, on this very good day for democracy, and for the Democrats.

🔥Rufus Gifford, former U.S. amb. to Denmark, unloaded on JD Vance for saying Denmark “is not a good ally”: Go to Denmark and say it to the faces of the parents of the young men and women who lost their lives alongside U.S. troops. Say it to them!

Here's a riddle:

Knowledge is power…

Fro”zen”

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

The next DOGE target could be the FDIC, which was already experiencing a staffing shortage before Trump's hiring freeze. Remember: the FDIC was created during the Depression to protect people's deposit accounts. Gutting it could lead to another financial meltdown.

“Easier to fool a man than convince him he has been fooled” let that one sink in today!

In a man’s world it’s the women blocking the cock!

The wealthiest men in America stripped aid and resources from the world’s most poor and suffering, and that makes America great; we clearly have different standards and values!

The things that he said are horrible. But if saying them is a reason to slink off into the shrubbery, what about this guy's boss? Elon Musk has said many stunningly racist, transphobic, antisemitic, misogynist (and super-stupid) things.

The very definition of evil.

This is murder.

State Attorney General’s, this is your time, be a Goonie!

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

Reminding myself that I was an early adopter of Instagram when folks were still on FB; so while folks are still defending their presence on meta apps we are building community here, again!

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

He is just too much!

Minority female judge begins and continues her cock block!

The CFPB is the financial watchdog for the American people. The agency has returned $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011. Trump fired its director and put his treasury secretary, a Wall Street hedge fund manager, in charge. Guess what happened next...

there’s no way to say this without sounding like a bowl of extra useless crunchy granola i realize that but my god is it ever important to turn that panic energy into caring-for-your-communities energy

My list of wants and needs does not include Botox!

About the presidency, Harry Truman famously said “the buck stops here.” Trump is trying to pass the buck and blame everybody but his administration for the DC plane crash. This is a time for consoling the families and investigating the cause of this tragedy, not shameful finger pointing.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Hate the cynicism that resides in my core right now, but the feelings of mistrust feel as relevant as red flags on a first date.

Another observer raising the alarm. Robert Hubbell writes: "Trump has broken faith with the Constitution. He is no longer operating within the pale of the law. On Monday, January 27, Trump dropped all pretense of being a “president” within the meaning of Article II of the US Constitution..."
