When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing:

420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power.

MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

My Open Letter to Elon Musk From Marc | Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” This is my response.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.

I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau exists to protect Americans from predatory lenders, junk fees, and fraud.

Shutting it down does nothing more than give sketchy companies a free pass to prey on the public.

We’re not going to let that happen.

I’m in a few groups for women in aviation and I haven’t seen this much sadness and despair in many years. Being a female flyer has never been a walk in the park but things were getting better. Now all of a sudden things are getting worse again, especially for our sisters in the US.

Brilliant segment on the vital role the NIH exercises in advancing Alzheimer’s research to unlock future treatments. Strong and very recent bipartisan support.

Well done and thank you @maddow.msnbc.com

Honestly,after witnessing this senseless,dimwitted video of Musk,that some try to infuse into the public’s mind, that he’s a genius, does this display he’s has any business accessing Americans info or making decisions to gut agencies? I feel like Musk needs a drug test!

Kash Patel, Confirmed The Senate bent the knee again, confirming Kash Patel for a 10-year term as director of the FBI.

“If FBI agents who are just doing their jobs aren’t free of the risk of political prosecution, then who is? In a country run by a president who has accumulated all power into his own hands, you never know who might run afoul of the leader’s good graces.” joycevance.substack.com/p/kash-patel...
