Donald Trump wants you to believe that he is all powerful and that if you fight back you will lose.

He wants you to believe that if you fight back you face danger.

It is time for us to build not a temporary resistance but a long term opposition.

Yep.

Tulsi Gabbard keeps starting up PACs. Where is the money going? When her appointment as director of national intelligence is vetted, the Senate should scrutinize her political operation.

Remarkable reporting by @davidcorn.bsky.social at Mother Jones. Tulsi Gabbard has a lot of questions to answer about where the money goes from the many PACs she starts...

Trump lied about his call with Mexico’s president. She’s having none of it. She called him out. A good example for other leaders.

Trump has named Charles Kushner, father of Jared Kushner, as ambassador to France. The elder Kushner once pleaded guilty to tax evasion and making illegal campaign contributions. Trump pardoned him in 2020.

“L’état, c’est moi,” as the saying goes.

Here you go, France. A nepo criminal!

We deserve answers. There’s a place between rolling over and storming the Capitol. The silence from Dem leadership is deafening.

‘We’re Just Going to Have to Deal With Him’ Europe braces for Trump.

“The return of Trump and his hard-edged ‘America First’ policy is emboldening Europeans who have been arguing that the continent needs more independence from its most powerful ally,” McKay Coppins reports:

ICE cold: How a loyal Obama bureaucrat became the face of Trump's deportation force "I find the Tom Homan that I see on TV now unrecognizable," says a former White House official.

Now that Tom Homan is going to be Trump's border czar, I'd recommend this profile I did of him in 2018.

It shows how he went from being well-liked in the Obama administration to the face of Trump's immigration policies.

How RFK Jr. Falsely Denied His Connection to a Deadly Measles Outbreak in Samoa He also championed a Samoan anti-vaxxer tied to the 2019 lethal eruption that killed scores of children.

Don't think polio could come back? Think again. In 2019, RFK Jr. used his anti-vax non-profit to promote lies about vaccines in Samoa. Vaccine rates fell, and a deadly measles outbreak raged across the island.

83 people died. Most of them were children. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Trump indicates he would consider a ban on vaccines if elected RFK Jr, an anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist, says Trump promised him control over public health policy if he wins

On pandemics: RFK Jr. told the Trump team in Oct. 2024 that as head of HHS he'll find 'federal data' to show vaccination is dangerous & yank vaccines off the market.

Vaccination eliminated polio & smallpox in the US. Under RFK Jr, they could come back. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

And the terrible Trump Cabinet picks keep coming. Let's talk RFK Jr. for Health and Human Services Secretary.

Let's ignore the fact that he may have eaten a dog and proudly stated a worm ate part of his brain.

The more important question: what would this mean for YOU? 🧵

Headline reading Trump Judge Blocks Overtime Pay For 4 Million Workers The overtime rule is one of the most far-reaching economic reforms that President Joe Biden has fought for.

President Biden tried to raise the overtime threshold, which is the point where salaried workers are entitled to earn overtime pay. It would have helped millions. A Trump appointed judge in Texas just blocked it.

Please tell me you see which party is actually fighting for the average worker.

Update: His health guy doesn't believe in medical science. His law guy is a sex trafficker. His intelligence gal is a Russian asset.

Flashback to the time Matt Gaetz tried to enter literal Chinese state propaganda into the record during a House hearing and was instantly called out for it

Ha! He’ll fit right in! Who among them isn’t accused, indicted or convicted of sex crimes already? Shoe-in.

And you know bear-eatin’ Bobby Jr won’t be there long, as surely all of his “clean food” and healthy eating proposals won’t fare well with Ketchup-flinging Cheeseburger Fuhrer.

Nothing he does is normal, so why would this be any different?

It’s On Us To Stop Matt Gaetz From Becoming AG Yes, we absolutely can

BOOM: GOP Senator Cornyn wants to see everything regarding the House Ethics investigation into Matt Gaetz.

The number to contact the US Senate is 202-224-3121. Call your Senators and Thune and tell them to do their jobs and oversee the Cabinet appointments. Their oath is to the Constitution and their loyalty is to their constituents, not Trump. None of his candidates are qualified.

You know what recess appointments do?

They disenfranchise you of your voice and the vote you cast for your elected Senator.

Call your Senators and let them know you won’t be silenced.
