RFK Jr was just confirmed.

The man who vehemently disagrees with vaccinating children…The man who believes covid vaccines don’t work.

He’s now the Head of Health and Human services.

There are no words for how devastating this appointment will be for Americans. Especially our most vulnerable.

There’s something very America about the rich old white guy who didn’t do shit holding up the trophy like a hero while standing in front of the Black man who actually did everything.

Why does the world's richest man want to gut the CFPB?

Because it would shield him from having to follow financial laws to keep customers' money safe — and give him access to confidential records about his competitors.

Follow the money.

I honestly don't understand how someone who has read a thing in their life could deny that Trumpism is fascism at this point. But then I felt the same way on 1/6/21, so I'm certain they'll figure something out.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Great. Same energy about DHS please!
Democratic senators will hold the Senate floor all night long in opposition to the nomination of Russ Vought, an organizer of Project 2025, to head the OMB.

Elon Musk keeps talking about saving taxpayers a few billion and government efficiency but the simplest and most efficient way for the government to recoup hundreds of billions all at once is to just take it from Elon Musk.

It’s literally your job to do something about it. This is not a wait and see…

cannot be said enough that for a decade a critical number of americans have simply refused to accept that he means what he says
I hold a lot of disdain for the people who didn’t see this coming given P2025 but it does seem like the actual support for these goals is nonexistent, everyone who voted for him did so under the incredibly stupid assumption that he wouldn’t do this

So the world's richest man spends a fortune backing Trump and is given the go-ahead to...

-Run an "efficiency" agency despite having billions in govt contracts

-Replace civil servants with his own cronies

-Gain access to sensitive Treasury payment systems

See the problem?

I know Dems want to focus on the price of eggs but I do think “end of checks and balances,” “coup by Elon Musk,” “racism and cruelty,” “destruction of civil service and federal government,” and “total chaos leading to global collapse” are also things that might energize voters against the GOP

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.
