So, the US government will no longer buy about $1 billion in wheat, rice, sorghum & lentils from American farmers for USAID. That's a fair chunk of income US farmers will have to do without. www.usda.gov/about-usda/n...

This is the moment we face. Congressional leaders must stand. If not for their constituents or the Constitution, this is the moment they must decide whether they will matter. Democrats are now speaking out on this usurped power. Will any republicans?

THE LAW IS NOT FULLY TRUMP’S YET

Even though we can't rely on the rule of law alone in checking Trump's power, writing it off is the kind of pessimism that becomes our self-fulfilling fate.

GOP, remember when Biden gave George Soros control over the system that pays Social Security, Medicare, tax refunds & federal contracts—then used it to cut off anyone he didn’t like?

Me neither, because that never happened. But it’s what Trump & Elon Musk are doing now w/out congressional approval.

What happened to Cornelius Taylor?

“father, son, brother, and beloved community member” - @atlantajustice.bsky.social

We knew Atlanta police bulldozed encampments, again — “the only shelter many have”

And now his family has the coroner’s report

So you decide.

Musk, Trump & Our Money

Trump ousted a top Treasury official for blocking Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team access to the system that pays Social Security, Medicare, tax refunds, and federal contracts.

They’re not just coming for government waste—they’re coming for our money.
