President Zelenskyy,
The vast majority of Americans are fully sickened to our core by the violence visited upon you every day, with help from our President and his party.

Lateral move.
Mahmoud Khalil should be at home with his pregnant wife.
Instead, he's been illegally abducted & had his constitutional right to free speech & due process stripped.
We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil
Hope Rs who voted for him are pleased with themselves. And remember when I said MAGA Rs back policies that kill kids? MAGA freaked out. I was sadly right. www.thedailybeast.com/rfk-jr-it-wo...

I am stunned, even by Trump standards, that Dan Bongino, a man even Fox got rid of, is now the new deputy director of the FBI.
We are so effed.
DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.
Hereβs the new Deputy Director of the FBI. π

Photo of Teddy Roosevelt with quote. "We can just as little afford to follow the doctrinaires of an extreme individualism as the doctrinaires of an extreme socialism... Much of the discussion about socialism and individualism is entirely pointless, because of failure to agree on terminology. It is not good to be the slave of names. I am a strong individualist by personal habit, inheritance, and conviction; but it is a mere matter of common sense to recognize that the state, the community, the citizens acting together, can do a number of things better than if they were left to individual action. From Citizenship in a Republic
The word "socialism" has been thrown around as a catch-all label of evil for well over a century. It's just as foolish now as it was in Roosevelt's time.
