The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

CDC denies help for lead poisoning in Milwaukee schools due to layoffs The CDC rejected a request for help "due to the complete loss" of their lead poisoning experts.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie).

Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

I agree.

In a functioning democracy, we would already be in the midst of an impeachment trial.

Sure. Tell Grandma to just head on over to X to sign up for her benefits.

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

What will we do? Absolutely nothing. Dems need to start fighting back. We're still using old school tactics like writing letters.

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history.

They aren't even bothering to hide it.

Excited for all the new American banana and coffee factories.

Fox:

This stock market crash thing is so confusing. On one hand you have every economist and bank in the free world freaking out. On the other, there are some blue check accounts on Twitter with ancient statues as their profile pics doing 20 part threads on why down is the new up. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Pete Buttegeig made this point last night on CNN. The war plans (Goldberg said they were very detailed, so much he wouldn’t print them) are on a secure system. To get them onto Signal, Hegseth would have to do a cut and paste. Labor intensive! Maybe he retyped?

How about a fund for the cops who were attacked?

Holds zero significance or real weight. They need to do more. Letters mean nothing.

Fmr National Security Advisor Susan Rice has LAID IT OUT on @msnbc.com. You wanna know exactly what is outrageous about the conduct of these actors in Signal-gate. Get the tape. She’s on to something, among other questions: why was the Acting Chair of the Joint Chiefs left out of this conversation?

I think this is probably right.

Although I appreciate this gesture, more must be done. This has no real significance.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did

RFK Jr.’s focus on vitamin A for measles worries health experts The measles outbreak in Texas has sparked debate over the use of vitamin A, with some health experts warning it may not be effective.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s focus on vitamin A use to combat a growing measles outbreak in Texas is raising concerns among public health experts, who fear he is sending the wrong message about preventing the highly contagious disease and distracting from the importance of vaccination.

American planes are crashing almost every day and the Secretary of Transportation is visiting the Daytona 500 and tweeting at Pete Buttigieg.

LMAOOO, so true.

We used to all hold our breath hoping a shooter wasn’t a Muslim or a trans person.

Now we gotta worry if the air traffic controller was Black?!

Do you see how far they have moved the window?

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.

No one is coming to save us, my friends. WE are the cavalry we’ve been waiting for. Buckle up, it’s time to stand up and lead ‼️
