"Trump gives X Y days to do Z" is the most boring and predictable headline followed by "Trump folds" and the next shiny object.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.
11,000 people showed up.
Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Last night’s #StateOfTheUnion was a reminder of exactly what’s at stake. Lies, chaos, & attacks on our rights—we can’t just watch it happen.
DO something about it. Join us in Wisconsin for the Supreme Court to fight for abortion rights, fair elections, and democracy. We hit the doors every weekend.

Totally incompetent. These clowns have no idea what they're doing.
It's not just one instance of a billion being only a million: "DOGE's only public ledger is riddled with mistakes," a team of New York Times reporters found. The figures are "full of accounting errors, outdated data and other miscalculations." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...
DOGE’s Only Public Ledger Is Riddled With Mistakes
The figures from Elon Musk’s team of outsiders represent billions in government cuts. They are also full of accounting errors, outdated data and other miscalculations.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

JD Vance is saying the quiet part out loud: the Trump administration intends to break the law.
America is a nation of laws. The courts make sure we follow the laws.
The VP doesn’t control the courts, and the President cannot ignore the Constitution.
No one is above the law.

They're not trying to make the government more efficient.
They're trying to break the government so they can enrich themselves.
Scott Walker did this in Wisconsin in 2011 with his union-busting "budget repair bill," which had nothing to do with budget repair.
Same con every time.

The crisis is here. Dems will win by making this fight about impact on people’s lives.
The GOP wants to fight on “federal funding.” They’re not attacking “funding.” They’re attacking veterans, kids who need school lunches, people battling cancer, workers trying to unionize.

What the president has tried to do in the last 24 hours is illegal.
His actions threatened millions of Illinoisans' access to health care, food, and even fuel to heat their homes. I will stay vigilant in defense of IL because if you come for my people, you come through me.

Chaos is a strategy. It's a play for your time and your nerves.
It's also scandalous, corrupt, illegal policy-by-whim.
Stay focused and call out tyranny and cruelty where you see it.

Operation Swing State and Democrats across Illinois have been key partners to WisDems over the last five years.
As DNC chair, I will ensure that Democrats organize year-round in every county—establishing the permanent campaign infrastructure that Operation Swing State has supported in Wisconsin.

Love this timeline when Peter Thiel uses GPT to write and publish an angsty, high falutin' word salad in the @financialtimes.com -- it reads like an 8th grader who finished the second year of Jr. Great Books.

In the US, the UK, and now Germany, Musk is hoping to buy the most reactionary, least accountable, most flagrant reactionaries worldwide.
Let's be clear, he's a joke. He's also a joke who happens to be the richest man in the world at a time of profound corruption.
