Pay close attention to the attacks on our court system from Trump, Vance and Musk. If they decide to deliberately and brazenly ignore a court order - because the courts command no army - then there is no democracy left. It's a place America has never been before, for good reason.

Trump and Musk just illegally shut down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I want to explain how this lets banks and financial companies steal from you and get away with. All so the billionaires and banks can get even richer.

BREAKING: Democrats hit Donald Trump with nightmare news by unveiling a new task force specifically designed to fight the "harm" being inflicted on America by the MAGA regime. This is the last thing that Republicans wanted to hear... House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries announced the formation of the Rapid Response Task Force and Litigation Working Group in a a "Dear Colleague" letter. The task force will support Democrats' "ongoing effort to push back against the far-right extremism that is being relentlessly unleashed on the American people." "We are engaged in a multifaceted struggle to protect and defend everyday Americans from the harm being inflicted by this administration," wrote Jeffries. "As outlined last week, it’s an all hands on deck effort simultaneously underway in Congress, the Courts and the Community." Crucially, Jeffries vowed to do what Republicans refuse to do by actually focusing on the needs of the American people. While Trump is busy gutting the government and lining his cronies' pockets, Democrats are doing their job. "House Republicans and the administration have done nothing to lower the high cost of living. The cost of groceries is skyrocketing," wrote Jeffries wrote. "Meanwhile, Republicans continue to launch far-right attacks on Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, public safety and the education of our children." "The American people are counting on us to stop them. Thank you for your continued leadership during this perilous moment. Together, we press on for the people," he wrote. Jeffries has asked Assistant Leader Representative Joe Neguse to chair the task force with Representatives Gerry Connolly and Jamie Raskin as co-chairs.

Mark Cuban moments ago: “If you have nothing to hide, hide nothing Elon Musk, why not invite some democrats to work side by side with your Doge teams and report on what exactly is going on?”

@SenAdamSchiff Investigate!

The reckless decision to release billions of gallons of water from the Terminus and Schafer Dams is already hurting farms and farmers. It’s a massive waste. I'm demanding answers from the Army Corps of Engineers about what happened. And why.

BREAKING: Donald Trump's nominee for FBI Director gets hit with a stunning scandal as it's revealed that he was paid $25,000 by a Russian-linked company to appear in a propagandistic "documentary" in which he demanded the closing of the FBI's headquarters. And it gets so much worse... Kash Patel, a noted conspiracy theorist and diehard Trump loyalist, was paid the sum in question by the film company Global Tree Pictures, which is owned by a Russian national. The company has produced content pushing the Kremlin's anti-Western and anti-democratic views. One of their previous projects was a pro-Russian propaganda campaign that received money directly from a fund created by Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. The disturbing revelation came after The Washington Post obtained documents outlining the payment to Patel. In return for the cash, Patel sold out his country by appearing in a conspiracist documentary that pathetically claimed that there was a Deep State plot which "destroyed the lives of those who stood by Donald Trump in an attempt to remove the democratically elected president from office." The six-part series was called "All the President’s Men: The Conspiracy Against Trump" and aired on Tucker Carlson's online network. Carlson has been a noted defender of Putin's Russia and regularly pushes Kremlin talking points. Perhaps most disturbingly, Patel stated in the documentary that he plans to "shut down the FBI headquarters building and open it up as a museum to the ‘deep state.’" Ending the FBI has long been at the top of the Kremlin's wishlist, as the Bureau regularly foils Russian intelligence operations and fights against oligarch corruption. If Trump gets his way, the man who wants to destroy the FBI will be entrusted with leading it. Please retweet and ❤️ if you totally oppose Kash Patel's nomination — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

Who is this scumbag blocking the entrance to the Department of Education from members of Congress?

“According to one Trump ally, Musk is not fully briefing White House chief of staff Susie Wiles about his plans and the White House is effectively in the dark.” vanityfair.com/news/story/is-…

BREAKING: A government worker reports that fresh-faced 19, 20, and 21-year-olds from DOGE are running 15-minute kangaroo courts to decide if federal employees keep their jobs. Bureaucracy just turned into an episode of Shark Tank, but with interns holding the gavel.

Nothing says “free speech absolutist” quite like demanding a reporter be fired for accurately exposing a public official’s problematic character—one who had access to the highly sensitive federal payment system. Elon Musk is an absolute fraud

"A 'special government employee,' wealthy beyond the dreams of Croesus, chose as his target the most vulnerable people on earth...President Onlooker muttered the agency was dominated by 'radical left lunatics.' Musk called them criminals." thebulwark.com/p/trump-and-mu…

BREAKING: In a stunning resurfaced video, Lindsey Graham is caught praising USAID for the incredible work they do. Lindsey Graham knows USAID is a valuable national security asset but he’s too weak to stand up to the Trump-Musk Administration.

On Wednesday, there were some false claims posted about my family and the Clinton Foundation. The post was deleted, but it’s important to correct the record. We’re very proud the foundation and our CGI partners have helped millions of people across America and around the world while earning top ratings from charity watchdogs. And it’s important people know our family doesn’t earn anything from this work, as fact checkers have repeatedly shown. The foundation doesn’t depend on federal grants, but we also know many nonprofits do. At this moment, our primary concern is for all the people those critical programs serve.

Who could have possibly predicted?

There is no safe haven under authoritarian rule, even if it happens in America.

Elon Musk is mounting a blitzkrieg-style administrative coup of the US government, accessing & editing critical systems that manage everything from Social Security payments to private taxpayer info. Join @IndivisibleTeam in DC today to demand a stop to it: mobilize.us/moveon/event/7…

Ed Martin is a former talk-show host who tweeted that “nothing out of hand” happened on January 6. He’s a shocking choice, even by Trump standards. trib.al/MBkrQhf

Huge scoop

FBI Director nominee Kash Patel promised no retribution. The next day, we have this grotesque purge at the FBI. Bondi said she would examine pardons on a case by case basis. Then Trump gave 1550 pardons overnight. Their confirmation commitments mean nothing.

Trump administration removes online database of Jan. 6 cases. He is trying to erase history.
