Good call

I’d like to see more major-media reports on how the involvement of Elon Musk with a) the Presidential Transition, b) the House Republican Conference, c) the Senate Republican Conference, and d) lobbyists is already unlike anything America has ever seen with a non-government adviser. 100% horrifying.

NEW: VoteVets Responds To News of Likely Trump Purge of Generals

"Unless somehow stopped or talked out of this plan, it will be remembered as the first step in remaking the military from an apolitical force loyal to the Constitution into a MAGA Military, pledging fealty to Donald Trump."

All Bets Are Off | Joseph O’Neill, Daniel Drake “The Democrats must do everything in their power and influence to oppose, slow down, and attach political costs to the Trump agenda.”

Interesting interview worth a read, #resisters.

"[T]here are millions more fascists in this country than people think...He is an evil guy, a villain—and many Americans are excited by it...Nihilistic consumerism, as much as authoritarianism, prevailed..."

2024’s other big loser? The mainstream media. Is there any path forward? | Will Bunch As an electorate besieged by disinformation turned to Trump, trust in traditional media has imploded. What comes next?

"The now-president-elect, according to that NBC survey, posted his biggest margin of 53-27% among voters who don’t follow any news. Trump’s win was a triumph of the ill-informed... Donald Trump was returned to power by the most badly informed electorate in modern American history."

Please stop saying America isn’t ready for a woman to be President. We elected one in 2016.

Blue state govs gear up to protect their people “You come for my people, you come through me.”

"In immediately rolling out programs for resistance, govs also underlined that state Dem strength has grown since 2016 — which is one way we are better prepared for Trump now than we were then."

Don’t Give Up on the Truth Striking out against injustice is always right; it always matters.

“First, we must remind ourselves of the importance of truth telling, of bearing moral witness, of calling out lies. Countless people, famous and unknown, have told the truth in circumstances far more arduous and dangerous than ours.”

Every single Republican will fall in line and every person Donald Trump nominates will be confirmed. No GOP Senator will stand in the gap because they’re all afraid Elon Musk will finance a primary against them. Let’s stop pretending otherwise.

Congressman @mikelevin.bsky.social just joined BlueSky a few minutes ago.

He’s going to be a key voice in defense of Earth’s climate over the next few years.

Please give him a follow and pass it on!

Hi Y’all

Trump has been able to channel the intensifying anger of the working class away from the real causes of working-class distress — away from the big corporations, wealthy individuals, and denizens of Wall Street whose money has rigged the game against average working people.
