Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.

France also gave us this land as American soil.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

WYDEN: Do you believe in a nursing home there should be a registered nurse available around the clock?

DR OZ: As you know, that's a complicated question

WYDEN: No it's not. We need a nurse in a nursing home. Not too complicated.

Musk is mostly busy dismantling democracy, free speech, and the FAA, but yeah he finds time to blow up a rocket every now and then.

It’s up to us to stand up against Elon, no one else is going to do it for us--please help us grow Bsky and takedown X by reposting our ExodusAction @vox.com

“Transitioning” from 50 straight months of job growth, a 400% rise in manufacturing construction and the best back-to-back years for the stock market in a quarter century. 🤡

The new head of the FDA division that regulates infant formula was in recent months a corporate lawyer defending a top formula maker from claims that its product gave rise to debilitating harm to premature babies.

Rep. Jim Himes: Zelenskyy is watching 70,000 dead Ukrainians. Missiles are slamming into hospitals. This is what he’s seeing, and he comes to the Oval Office, and a reporter asks him why he’s not wearing a suit. And the effing VP wants him to say thank you…

This is the most dangerous move yet The canary is gasping for air

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Trump expected to take control of USPS, fire postal board, officials say The move threatens to upend trillions of dollars in e-commerce business and the 250-year-old Postal Service.

trump wants to be able to tell the USPS not to deliver ballots to blue states www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Embarrassing confession - I heard some references to Jeffries on a "book tour" and thought it was some wry joke. But no! He co-wrote a children's book about democracy and is touring it during the first Trump recess week.

This is a solidly red district in Georgia. Republicans are really starting to feel the pressure — let’s keep turning up the heat. Your representatives are back home for congressional recess and we’ve got events planned around the country (including Tesla dealerships). LFG: indivisible.org/muskorus

Loving her 🔥🔥🔥

We need this ferocity from our leaders and we, the people.

We are fighting back!💪

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

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.

Understand USDA is now fast tracking to rehire front line employees working on bird flu outbreaks. They were “accidentally” fired by the administration. 

Translation: Nice job Musk! You and your friends will still get your tax breaks, but higher egg prices for everyone else.

YouTube video by Democracy Docket Pennsylvania Governor Sues Trump to Unfreeze Billions in Federal Funds

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

First nuclear weapons management, now this. No one - Democrat or Republican - voted for this kind of incompetence.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

The natural comparison here is Benghazi

But-as a foreign policy misstep-this is MUCH worse

Because whereas the mission in Benghazi was attacked

The Kinshasa looting was a self-inflicted wound which happened only because of Trump and Elon's arrogance

FFS!

𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 are firing National Park Service EMTs

There will be no one to attend to you if you get attacked by wildlife, fall while climbing/hiking, have a skiing incident, are drowning, break a leg/arm/your neck, etc

Alex Wilds is one such federal employee. Read what he's saying
