DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

North Carolina's GOP supreme court appears to be laying the groundwork to overturning a Dem justice's reelection.
This comes weeks after the GOP passed a law to grab control of state elections despite November's results (boltsmag.org/north-caroli...).

Hard not to see these moves as an effort to avoid being politically targeted by an illiberal president.

Plutocracy (noun):
Government by the wealthy.
Scott Bessent as Treasury Secretary:
A hedge fund manager whose career prioritizes financial markets over working-class Americans, steering policies toward plutocracy.
Billionaires get richer while the rest are left behind.

This is the difficult business of hope and defying expectation.
We do not give up.
We run through the tape.
Y’all aren’t allowed to throw in the towel until I do. 😉

After the shooting, someone said a lot of the CEO’s are afraid to return to work.

Republicans tried Trump’s foolishness back in 1928 and then spent the next few decades in the political wilderness.
We then got Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, and we made those Republicans like it.
Time to do that AGAIN!

Also a good day for a 3 Stooges marathon.
We need to make Good Trouble on Monday, Jan 20th, for Trump’s inauguration. I propose volunteer work, peaceful protesting and holding community space all while participating in a complete media blackout of the inauguration.

Some Republican-led states that passed near-total abortion bans have mysteriously stopped collecting statistics on maternal mortality.
They are more interested in covering up the deaths of women than in saving lives.

Republican women and MAGA mistresses have abortions all the time.
They want choice and access, cover up and can afford to obtain them whenever necessary.
They just don’t want you to have access to them. It’s about control, not about pro life.
