Congress was denied entry to both the U.S. Department of Education and the Treasury, where Musk staffers blocked the doors. Along with its appropriations responsibilities, Congress holds oversight authority over federal agencies. Blocking congressional access to these agencies is illegal.

Exactly. No is a complete sentence

Mazie Hirono brings out a copy of Project 2025 on the Senate floor: Trump and Vought will gut programs like nutrition assistance, education funding, and Medicare and Medicaid. This is Project 2025, which Russell Vought helped mastermind

Bravo, Rep. Marc Pocan !

Keep saying creepy! Call them Musk's bloodboys! This is better!

Murphy: "This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is."

An important read.

the point is not that it's fast -- the point it that it's systematic.

What is the point if we don't fight? Because there is still so much to fight for.

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

4. Citizens march en mass

Please! 🙄

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

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.
