As with Musk doing foreign policy and everything else, this is the privatization of public power, which is always followed by the privatization of public money into the same hands. We saw this in Russia and it's how to replace a democracy with oligarchy.

Trump just picked his own personal criminal defense lawyers to the #2 & #3 top spots at DOJ. In any other era, this would have been a big story, a clear conflict of interest, a corrupt violation of keeping the Justice Department independent. But with Trump, barely a notice.

As I was saying…

The ability of demagogues & autocrats to surprise, to create a new scandal every day, is their superpower. It diminishes attention to the previous day's transgressions & normalizes them. It slowly numbs the senses, including outrage. Values are the only defense. Hold them dear.

The vast majority of our imports at this point are inputs—that is, things that go into making other goods. So raising tariffs will still affect the things you think are made in the United States.

When they offer school “choice” or health care “choice” or social security “choice” or Veterans “choice”- that’s privatization. You pay taxes, and instead of giving it back to you, Republicans give it to their rich CEO friends. Then they cut CEO taxes.



GOP tax cuts that HURTS working people and biz growth. Huh, it’s like their policies don’t work for the economy?

The Louisiana House of Representatives voted Tuesday to eliminate the state’s $150 million tax incentive for film and TV production, as part of a broad package of measures to reduce the state income tax. variety.com/2024/film/news…

Soon to be Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth complained on Fox that veterans who use the benefits they've earned are dependent on the government and lack "personal integrity". This is what every Vet who wore their MAGA hats to the VA hospital voted for.

In 2019, Trump’s Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth said that he never washes his hands and can’t remember washing them once in the past 10 years: “Germs are not a real thing. I can’t see them.”


GOP, all fakers and cons and dangerous people, all of them.

THREAD: 1/? True story, @PeteHegseth was the subject of my first ever research book in 2017. I used to have to wake up early every weekend morning to watch Fox and Friends and hang on his every word.

One must wonder what kind of nominations they have in mind if they are so worried about their nominations even in a Republican-controlled chamber.

Sigh.

AOC asked her followers who split their ballots either for Trump/her or Trump/downballot Dem to explain why and posted the replies:

Terrifying. What happened to separation of Church and State? This 👇 makes me hate America.

Trump's 10 point plan for education: - eliminate the Dept. of Education - cut federal funding - promote Christian Nationalism - attack teacher's unions - give public money to for-profit private schools He warned us, and you voted for him anyway.

This will be a post that will piss everyone off, and I welcome it but here it is. Based on data we are learning, this isn't a blowout Trump win. Numbers don't back it up. Not a landslide. Not a damning referendum. Harris didn't run a terrible campaign. In fact impressive…

To everyone who is afraid of what happens next, I share your fears. But what we do next is important. We have to learn from what happened. And then, make a plan. As we confront a second Trump presidency, here’s a path forward: 🧵


Hallmark movie fans, please consider if your fave characters and #Hallmark towns would be cheering for Tr*mp policies - and if not, why? Then look into your own hearts. ❤️

In a couple of months, our country will be run by three South African billionaires who bought a presidential candidate because none of them are eligible to run for the office themselves.

In 2020 I was one of 7 dems that won a district that Trump won, so I held a series of listening sessions with people who voted for Trump and voted for me to understand their actions. I reread the transcripts yesterday and much of it felt like it could have been said today. THREAD

One of my GCs I partner w is a Trump guy. We won a new job that will start next year. I just told him I won’t honor today’s materials’ pricing past January. He asked why. I said tariffs could cause 100% increase in COGS or more. That I would send new pricing in the spring. He…
