Being a fucking idiot has consequences. Unfortunately, they’re for everybody.
Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason."

BREAKING: Sen. Ron Wyden sounds the alarm that Trump approves of the House budget resolution -- the only way they can meet their $880 billion in cuts is by cutting hundreds of billions from Medicaid, a disaster for millions.
Make sure everyone sees this.

Count me among the pissed off base.
If Democrats don’t wake the fuck up, there’s a really good chance of a Dem version of the tea party movement taking out a few incumbents in primaries next year.
The base is *pissed* and wants fighters. A lot of Dem electeds are just sitting on their hands and doing nothing.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.
This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

Every country that Trump slaps a tariff on should retaliate by slapping a 1000% tariff on all Tesla and Starlink products, if only to show Elon that there is a downside to using our public government as his private playpen.

Personally, I think that Congressional Dems and the DNC should leave the complacent "I told you so"s to us ordinary citizens, and get up off their asses and start, you know, actually resisting the Maggot Party.
And no, simply trying to raise more money doesn't count as "resisting".

Democratic lawmakers need to understand something:
Imagine your house is on fire. Fire truck shows up. Firefighters get out. They look at the fire, then at you, and say: "Such a fire is a grave threat. This house will not sustain."
And just stand there.
This is how many of you are coming across.

I am begging Democratic lawmakers to stop solely pointing out the obvious problems and start publicly talking about how to address them.
We know our democracy is unstable and unhealthy. What are you gonna do about it?
Cease the platitudes and broad statements. Get specific and talk about actions.

I am so, SO angry with the Dem "leadership" right now.
I am a proud Democrat, but I will not hold our leadership to an embarrassingly low standard because we're in the same party.
The GOP may have a majority in Congress, but they do not control the voices of our leadership. There is simply no excuse for tepid and weak messaging in this moment. None.

I'd be willing to bet a month's pay that FEMA responds exponentially more to disasters in red states than they do in blue states.
Trump: "I'll be signing an EO to begin process of fundamentally reforming & overhauling or maybe getting rid of FEMA. I think, frankly, FEMA is not good. When you have a problem like this, you want to use your state to fix it & not waste time calling FEMA..I think we're gonna recommend FEMA go away"
