We must not leave this out of the account of what they have done. What Musk and Trump and Vought did. What Johnson and his band of sycophants allowed them to do. What tens of millions of fellow Americans endorse.

On today’s episode of β€œHe’s Tearing This S**t Up”—Trump plans to dismantle NOAA, shutting down climate research and weather labs.​

In Texas, that means fewer hurricane warnings, less drought data, & more risk to our communities.​

This isn’t just a budget cutβ€”it’s a threat to our safety.

Exporting β€œexcess” products to the rest of the world and designing systems that preferenced U.S. exports created the postwar prosperity Americans have seen over the past 75 years. It’s going to be so cool when U.S. standard of living falls off a cliff and MAGA has no idea why.

BASH: You voted to approve Marco Rubio's nomination to be secretary of state. Did you make the right choice?


CHRIS MURPHY: Nope. It was a mistake. It was a mistake. I think a lot of us thought Marco Rubio was going to stand up to Trump on an issue like this.

Donald Trump Is No Longer the President of the United States We must accept what is happening

On the theme of constitutional failure and emergency, see this piece by my friend and colleague, Johann Neem. My one reservation is that I would place the Impeachment Clause atop my list of failed provisions.

From One Farmer to Another
YouTube video by The Back Forty From One Farmer to Another

He says what we've been shouting that MAGA just wouldn't hear but he says it in a way that some of them will hear. He's a rural farmer who speaks how they speak. @hcrichardson.bsky.social I posted 4 you to watch bec I think he's the missing link in our messaging. www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4CR...

Excellent read for all of us in Virginia.

The governor and the attorney general are complicit in their silence about what is going on across the Potomac.

And they are both selling out regular working people in Virginia.

Here we go AGAIN 🀬

The SAVE Act would make it harder for millions of Americans to cast a ballot, this includes women who changed their name after marriage.

We must spread the word to protect our democracy.

My Democratic colleagues just tried to subpoena unelected billionaire Elon Musk, but House Republicans blocked it.

We must hold Elon Musk accountable, especially since my Republican colleagues are complicit in these assaults on our government.

NEW: I just moved to subpoena Elon Musk to appear before the Oversight Committee to answer for his unlawful takeover of agencies across the government.

Republicans blocked my motion without allowing any debate.

They will stop at nothing to cover up Elon Musk's lawlessness.

Losing NOAA would be devastating. Project 2025 authors want to get rid of it because it monitors climate change, and privatize the information it currently provides for free, so you'll have to buy information about the weather and the winds (imperative for mariners).
