We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

I am part of the 25%. The lifestyle change is worth it.

This is the way…

Massive protests in the US as the country faces an ongoing coup d’état by the Trump regime and his oligarch cabal headed by Musk.

Countless people are standing up to fascism proving the US will not go quietly.

US aid freeze claims first victims as oxygen supplies cut off Seventy-one-year-old woman dies after being sent home from USAID funded hospital. Others die after hospitals close in refugee camps

Elon Musk and Donald Trump literally just cut off a 71 year-old woman’s oxygen…and killed her.

Almost $500 million in food is at risk of spoilage after USAID pause, report says A report from the USAID inspector general says that almost $500 million in food assistance is sitting in ports, ships and warehouses.

“Almost $500 million in food aid is at risk of spoilage as it sits in ports, ships and warehouses after funding for the U.S. Agency for International Development, or #USAID, was paused by the Trump administration, according to a Feb. 10 report from a government watchdog.”

Trump claimed that DOGE has uncovered billions in “fraud, waste, and abuse.” However, no evidence has been provided, and all public fraud claims from both Elon Musk and Trump have been debunked as false.

Google removing Black History month from their calendars WHILE we’re in the midst of Black History Month is vile behavior.

They also removed Pride Month.

They are so desperate.😂

SpaceX, which holds billions of dollars in government contracts, was penalized by the FAA for ignoring regulations. In response, Musk pushed for the resignation of the agency’s chairman.

Last night Elon Musk moved to kill the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. His team is now inside, and he posted “CFPB RIP 🪦” on X.

This agency has saved Americans billions.

DOGE isn’t about cutting waste—it’s about dismantling the government so Musk and his billionaire friends can take control.

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.

Trump, Vance, and Musk are pushing to rehire a staffer who resigned after being called out for a social media account with a history of racist posts. “To err is human, to forgive divine,” Elon Musk said in defense of the move. No—it’s not err; it’s racism. No excuses.

🚨BREAKING: Federal court BLOCKS Trump plant to place 2200 USAID employees on administrative leave and orders 500 USAID employees to be reinstated while this case continues. A big victory for @democracyforward.bsky.social!

Media says: Where are the Dems?
I say: WHERE the hell is the media?

📌Thousands of us stood in the cold here in Wisconsin and across the country protesting Musk's attack on our privacy, and it barely got a mention.
📌Dems are fighting, but the media has once again fallen at Trump's fat, little feet.

Oops 😬

13 states to sue over DOGE access to government payment systems containing personal data Democratic attorneys general in several states are vowing to file a lawsuit to stop Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency from accessing federal payment systems containing Americans’ sensiti...

LFG! We need more blue states to join in.

They're waking up.

Trump announced that he plans to sign an executive order next week to end the promotion of paper straws as an alternative to plastic ones. So much for the sea turtles.

DOGE is, in the truest sense, a completely rogue agency. The White House has admitted it doesn't really know what DOGE is doing, it's commandeering critical systems, it's resourced by an independent oligarch, it's tearing chunks out of the government. It's a rogue actor in US government

ELON IS ALLOWED IN THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. NOT YOUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES OR STUDENTS & PARENTS. I WILL BE BACK.

Re-upping this. We need experts in media literacy & stewards of the freedom to read now more than ever.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THIS NOW.

democratic members of congress are being BLOCKED from entering the department of education.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

The new cover of TIME.

Senator Murphy lays out exactly what is on the line. People will suffer for these tax breaks.

" There was a promise made to finance this tax cut with two trillion dollars of cuts to Medicaid and Medicare. Medicaid, poor kids, poor families, Medicare, seniors in this country."

#HandsOffOurMedicaid

Is it me? Am I the drama? Because this is a line too far imo. Someone needs to explain to me, like I’m a kindergartner, how and why Musk is being given access to agencies like The Dept of Energy, that affect our national security.

Of course it’s a coup Miss the obvious, lose your republic

"A coup is underway, against Americans as possessors of human rights and dignities, and against Americans as citizens of a democratic republic. Each hour this goes unrecognized makes the success of the coup more likely."
