With the creation of Trump’s new Anti-Christian Bias Task Force, it’s time to get louder. Call out abuses committed in the name of Christianity. Call out hypocrisy. Call out hate speech against marginalized people. We will not be intimidated or silenced.

Some federally funded community health centers — which serve rural areas with limited access to medical care — are still unable to access grant funding and are shutting down because of Trump's spending freeze.

We are witnessing an attack on America's most vulnerable people.

Why is the GOP shielding Elon Musk from Oversight!? 

Maybe…because while we’re sitting here he’s dismantling agencies, threatening national security, stealing our data, and breaking the law. 

Dems are not clutching our pearls. 
Dems are fighting back. 
And we won't stop!

Elon Musk is NOT a government official, elected official, or appointee, yet his lackeys are taking over the Department of the Treasury. 

We will not let Elon take our country! This is our country! We will take it back!

Donald Trump ran on getting us out of wars and stopping American dollars from fueling other people’s conflicts. Now he wants us to seize Gaza, displace millions of Palestinians, and turn it into his personal Middle Eastern Riviera—and he’s willing to send U.S. troops to make it happen.

Top cop tells the good guys to stand aside while the bad guys rob the Treasury.
Trump’s DC US Attorney says that “Any threats, confrontations, or other actions in any way that impacts” what Elon Musk’s people are doing will be investigated by his office since that “may break numerous laws.”

If only there was a word for when an unelected oligarch moves quickly to take over control of the government.

The legacy media is failing us. Support independent media.

I suspect USAID is first because it's "foreign aid" and fewer Americans will object. But once the precedent is established, expect unilateral dismantling of domestic institutions too

No one voted for Elon Musk.

An unelected billionaire is trying to raid the Treasury Department and take money from the American people.

Once the cyberbarons fully occupy and effectively seize control of the Treasury and other key government agencies, it won’t be long before they relegate Trump to a rubber-walled romper room, wheeling him out for occasional bursts of what passes for charisma to humor him with the illusion of power.
