I attended that...and the BPO concert there thst evening that also featured Bruckner. A lot of Bruckner in one day!

She Won. They Didn't Just Change the Machines. They Rewired the Election. How Leonard Leo's 2021 sale of an electronics firm enabled tech giants to subvert the 2024 election.

The tech part of this is way beyond me, but it makes sense that the votes were tampered with.

I wonder if this attack is Bibi trying to deflect attention from Gaza.

How do we find out if there's a GoFundNe page to help them?

He's not made up.

It looks like he went on air without his usual makeup.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Please only interview people who are actually doing something to stop the coup. Not just people who can analyze it.

"Let's not become a nation of frightened silent people." --Navalny

Please call your reps in Congress and ask them to question the new Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent as to why he gave Musk access? (And get it stopped before Musk does further damage.)

I don't recall electing Elon Musk to anything, but he has now forced his way into the US Treasury's payment system and is beginning to decide who gets paid and who doesn't. He has access to our SSN's, bank account numbers, etc.

Senate needs to respond to mass firings of Jan 6 attack prosecutors by rejecting Trump nominees. Have a spine and stand up to this autocratic effort to rewrite history and embolden political violence. Block Bondi and Patel.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Unfortunately, all the reasons Caroline Kennedy gave to not approve RFKJr are exactly the reasons Trump chose him. He wants to destroy the US government.

in a world of raging bullybros, be the person with whom they are afraid of making eye contact....

What Just Happened: What Trump's Hobbling of the Privacy Oversight Board Portends for Exercise of Surveillance Powers A “small” story about the removal of the three Democrats on the Private and Civil Liberties Board (PCLOB) is ominous.

Disturbing move that may fly under the radar - Trump removes members of PCLOB, the board the oversees privacy in the intelligence community, leaving it inoperable, at least for now.

I wish every Dem office would read this and internalize it. "The only sensible and dignified course of action is to accept that Republicans are in charge and to focus in on making their unpopular actions as painful as possible...The job of the opposition is quite literally to oppose. Get to it."

Oppose Trump's pick for Defense Secretary

I just contacted my senators and urged them to oppose Pete Hegseth's nomination to lead the Defense Department. Trump's pick would undermine our national security. app.sosha.ai/s/olI9Nhqt

Opinion | Trump Is Dismantling the Systems That Keep Us Safe. All Americans Will Suffer. Eviscerating modern state institutions almost always clears a path for a different political order, built on loyalties and connections to the ruler.

Valuable reasoning here. Worth adding: when Musk and Trump make government fail, they will then try to blame and punish chosen enemies.

YouTube video by Democracy Docket BREAKING: North Carolina Supreme Court Blocks Certification, Will Hear Ballot Challenge Case

A serious constitutional crisis is taking place in North Carolina where Republicans are trying to steal a state Supreme Court election by disenfranchising 60,000 voters AFTER the count and recount have showed the Democrat won.

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.

That is a lie.

The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

Any lip readers? What are Obama and Trump talking about at #Carter's funeral?

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment
