I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

“Don’t give up the ship.”
This is a stunning thing to even have to see Members of Congress say out loud. Absolutely chilling. And inspiring.
We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

This is long, but worth every second of your time and attention. A must read.
I’m sorry for the long post but a lot of you have followed me for a long time, since 2016 when I was one of the first to repeatedly call out Trump for being a Russian asset.

I don’t know how else to say this, as a person who has studied cults (wrote a bestseller about it) and totalitarian states.

She calls this an apology? What a bitch!
Joni Ernst issued an apology for her insane disregard of Medicaid recipients worried about losing their healthcare by saying "we're all going to die." The apology is worse by about a billion orders of magnitude, somehow. If there is a Hell, there's a special ring just for Joni.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Go, Bernie!
Dear Democrats:

📌83-year-old Bernie Sanders has been barnstorming through the Midwest drawing huge crowds taking on the Nazi shit coming out of the Republican Party, and fighting for the rights and benefits WE EARNED.

📌Get a fucking clue, get in the fight, out of D.C., or not another dime.

To every American tuning in to Trump’s address tonight, do two things before you watch:

Check your 401k.

Check your last grocery bill, and add 25%.

No matter what the President says tonight, that’s the reality of what he’s doing to your family finances.

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

The Dems need an official Press Secretary
AOC or Pete are the obvious candidates

Yes, these kinds of briefings should have been launched like, yesterday!
Journalists are getting the story out, activists are staging protests, courts are weighing in. The Democrats need to tie it all together in high profile daily briefings for the entire country. My latest on the urgent need for a counter narrative to Trump/Musk. ⤵️

Democrats should fight back with an aggressive, fact-based counter narrative every single day.
They know how to do this, they’ve done it before. The daily COVID briefings by blue state Governors are the perfect roadmap.

This is of vital importance!
Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

This has been my fear from the start - that a legitimate midterm election will not take place…
I don’t know if this is the plan. But if it is, let me rain on that parade.

Elon will never allow Democrats to win the mid-terms. If the plan is not to get him out of our govt systems now, it’s a wrap.
The Democratic “plan” is to “not get distracted” as Trump seizes Treasury, purges the FBI and the military, and completely defies all laws limiting himself, and then win back the House in 2026 by talking about inflation. It’s an awful plan.

Elie explains it all, clearly, and with humor. To wit, Trump’s federal funding freeze is still a hot mess…
“The OMB “clarified” its insane order with a “Q&A” that boiled down to: Any programs Trump likes are still funded; anything he doesn’t like is discontinued—Hail Hydra.”
What happened with the funding freeze and the bizarre recission of the memo yet continuation of the order?
It was all a legal gambit to get rid of the court cases, a gambit that will likely fail because Trump's Press Secretary kept running her mouth.

As Bernie Sanders has often said, there should be no such thing as billionaires!
This level of wealth concentration is indefensible
According to Barron’s, Elon Musk’s wealth increased by almost $200 billion between November 5 and December 20. That means he could give $250,000 to every homeless person in the US and still be as rich as he was on November 5.
