Libraries and museums represent the best of humanity. Sadly, and unsurprisingly, the administration that promotes the worst of society wants to defund them.

Show Up For Our Libraries! By eliminating the only federal agency dedicated to funding library services, the Trump administration's Executive Order is cutting off at the knees the most beloved and trusted of American institutions and the staff and services they offer. ALA American Library Association. #ForOurLibraries

🚨NEW🚨: Donald Trump is attempting to strip away federal support for libraries. We will NOT let that happen.

Last night the President signed an order to gut the Institute of Museum & Library Services. But together, we know we can show up & defeat it.

Me speaking at my son's Career Day tomorrow:
Well it used to be really amazing working for the CIA. Until the American people elected a Russian asset for President. Not sure I can recommend it anymore.

Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy.

Minnesota stands firmly with our allies in Ukraine.

That press conference was the most disgraceful act of betrayal I’ve ever seen.

A heck of a resignation! Those last couple of statements though. “ if no lawyer within earshot of the president is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

To all mainstream media voices saying something to the effect of "Still, most Americans like the idea of making government more efficient.."

Like - DO they though?

Because it seems MOST Americans want a government that is more EFFECTIVE.

EFFICIENCY, meanwhile, was certainly a Nazi preoccupation.

A quick search of Cotton’s accounts show that the first time he posted a single word critical of USAID was 5 days ago, despite serving in the Senate for 10 years and the House before that.

I’d just like to shout out humans for at least seeing through NFTs as the most idiotic idea possible.

Everyone should read 47 too:

"The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."-JM

They are going to ignore court orders.

If they ignore court orders, the social contract is dead and buried, the constitution is no longer in effect.

It's a rubicon that cannot be uncrossed.

Ooo this is a good one ☺️

Weak men cannot compromise. Weak men cannot build consensus. Weak men think that leadership means force. Weak men build nothing that lasts.

True.

It's getting a little North Korean around here.

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Trump and Musk Take a Hammer to America’s Reputation Their version of America is selfish, wasteful, and cruel.

"Silicon Valley types like to move fast and break things. I guess that’s fine if the only thing you break is your own bank account, but applying that spirit to foreign assistance (again, without a shred of legal authority) means breaking human beings."

Reminder: this is completely lawless

Oops 😬

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Why again did you not just force your way in and make these private security goons attempt to arrest you in front of television cameras?

SCHIFF: “Why is this firing of FBI agents such an important piece of this effort by Trump, Musk & their enablers? Because if they're going to raid the treasury, take people's private data, illegally shut down agencies... They don't want an FBI to examine anything they're doing.”

To America’s 2.3 million federal employees:

Don’t accept a buyout.

Neither Musk nor even Trump has the legal authority to make such an offer.

And even if they did, would you trust them to follow through on it?

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Elect a criminal
Expect a crime spree

Canada followed suit and made a promise to do something that they had already started doing in December.
