This week, my Somerville constituent Rümeysa Öztürk was abducted in broad daylight by DHS officials and sent to Louisiana to be locked in a detention center. She has not been charged with any crime.

There’s nothing “efficient” about Elon Musk’s DOGE.

It’s a waste of your $$ and its main accomplishments include cutting funding for cancer research, closing Social Security offices, and illegally accessing your data.

More like the “Department of Greed and Evil” if you ask me. 🧵

Dear Government of Greenland,

If you allow US Diplomats to visit your sovereign territory (beyond the US military installation), PLEASE ensure that they are guarded at all times by your own defense team. The trip details have been telegraphed across the world carelessly and provocatively.

I imagine fewer things give #elonmusk greater joy than claiming full value insurance for the vandalized cars he could not sell.

Boycott, strike, dump the stock but don’t do anything that he could recoup a single cent on.

A bad pitch perhaps but hear me out. What if we all just stopped going to work? Like everyone just went on strike until our leaders uphold the constitution and rule of law? They can’t evict us all if the collections workers and court staff are also on strike.
