Political junkie… got hooked on the Watergate trials as a jr in HS. Believe strongly in equality, fairness, kindness, the promise of America that we are still striving to achieve.
This is how it’s done. (Or.. should be).
If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.

Elon Musk and others LOSE their bid to duck depositions in DOGE litigation.

Judge doubts protections for "high-ranking government officials" for multiple reasons. It's unclear they ever had that status, and Musk "left government service."

I appreciate that the Constitution/state laws are clear. My point is that democracy dies when people fail to imagine. He TOOK Fulton Cty’s. They’re suing them to get them back. By the time they win in court he’ll may have compromised the data. We need to be ready to THWART it, not sue afterwards !
The president can’t nationalize elections, @seanmorales-doyle.bsky.social tells ABC News Live. The Constitution gives the states & Congress the power to set the rules governing our elections, and states & Congress in turn gave that power to run elections to state and local election officials.

So…. Epstein was a Russian asset/spy. Suddenly, that puts on a whole new light on his “suicide”. There wasn’t a window available. Hmmmm

💯 FOR ONCE could’ve DEMS including @chuckschumer.com @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social get officials in a room NOW and date to imagine what he will do. You didn’t do it right after the election and wasted MONTHS. Do it NOW! Democracy dies when ppl fail to imagine. So…. DON’T!
To be clear: I think the regime's plan to steal the election is doomed to fail. I don't think they're going to pull it off. We can win by voting in huge numbers and mass civil resistance against their crimes.

But, we're much more likely to succeed if we are prepared for their attempt.
