Keep this in mind as House Republicans vote for a budget framework that would gut Medicaid (relied on by 72 million) and food stamp programs (relied on by 42 million people).

BREAKING: Judge in our Treasury case vs. DOGE just raised profound "concerns about constitutionality of DOGE"!

She follows Judge Chutkan who also raised questions last week

We @sddaction.bsky.social will be in Md. Fed. Ct. Friday in our appointments clause case to prove DOGE is unconstitutional

If Elon Musk truly cares about being "maximally transparent," he should release the forms showing his financial interests.

Americans deserve to know how Elon Musk will profit from his role in the Trump Administration.

REMAIN SILENT.
You have the right to remain silent.
If the agents ask you questions, tell them,
"I wish to remain silent."
PERMANECE EN SILENCIO.
Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio.
Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles:

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Does anyone know an average voter who bought any Inauguration meme coins? He made about $6 billion yet I havenโ€™t heard of anyone who actually purchased any.

Was it just a simple money laundering scheme for foreign nationals who couldnโ€™t make donations & Americans whoโ€™d reached their FEC limit?

We do not have an administration.
We have a regime.

They donโ€™t care about citizens.
They care only about themselves.

They are screwing over the people who voted for them.

If that is you, keep this in mindโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s very simple.

If the crisis is at the southern border who are the ICE raids up north?

Because they are attacking Blue cities. The border crisis is just a pretense.

The people who claimed the COVID vaccine didnโ€™t have enough research are praising the president who just halted all medical research programs.

He said he didnโ€™t know anything about Project 2025.
You told us he wouldnโ€™t do it.
He is doing it all.

You chose this.

If you didnโ€™t vote for Harris, you chose this.

You couldnโ€™t support genocide.
Has Trump fixed that?

You didnโ€™t know enough about Harris.
Youโ€™ve known Trump for years.

Jill Stein was your conscience.
Do you like what you got?

Trump won.
Your vote could have avoided this.

We. Told. You.

Jan. 6 Defendant Shuns Trumpโ€™s Pardon, Likening โ€˜Stop the Stealโ€™ to a โ€˜Cultโ€™ Pamela Hemphill, 71, of Boise, Idaho, who served 60 days in prison, said it would be โ€œan insult to the Capitol Policeโ€ if she accepted the pardon.

Brava to the Jan. 6 defendant who has declined Trumpโ€™s pardon because it is an insult to Capitol Police. She calls the
Stop the Steal movement a โ€œCult.โ€

Just a reminder that in December I warned that Donald Trump would pardon the Jan. 6 defendants and that some of them would form the core of a new pro-Trump militia movement.

Billionaires Should Not Exist Yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.

When a single billionaire can accumulate more money in 10 seconds than their employees make in one year, while workers struggle to meet the basic cost of rent and medicine, then yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.

Birthright citizenship isnโ€™t just when an immigrant has a baby. It applies when a citizen has a baby. Were you born here? You get citizenship. If that ends retroactively, we all could get deported.

Project 2025 was carefully written but the executive orders it spawned are not.

Because they know better. Musk doesn't have the balls to try a little mustache and he waited to give the salute until he was at a partisan rally. He was positively giddy at the freedom. He hasn't been that free with racism since apartheid fell in his home country.

But when either becomes symbolic of evil, the Nazi salute or the Hitler mustache, they are noticeably avoided out of a sense of common sense. Don't tell me that Musk was waving to the crowd. He chose that gesture and repeated it. No one "accidentally" shaves down to a little mustache and keeps it.

Every person can wear whatever mustache they choose. Handlebar, Horseshoe, Chevron, Fu Manchu, Walrus, Pencil, etc. Some are iconic, like the Hercule Poirot or the Wilford Brimley. You be you.

Every public speaker can wave at their crowds. There are many kinds of waves. Some are elegant, some are gracious, some are iconic. Queen Elizabeth had that cute little twist that so many winners of Miss America used to imitate...
