Irony is dead in this moment along with common sense. Trump who squawked “but her emails” incessantly, let Musk (unelected/not a govt employee) send his crew of kids in to review classified information & plug devices of unknown origin into the government computer system, compromising everything.

Heather Cox Richardson: replacement of our constitutional system of government w/the whims of an unelected private citizen is a coup.The president has no authority to cut programs created & funded by Congress; a private citizen tapped by a president has even less standing to try anything so radical.

WI peeps, vote for Judge Susan Crawford for Supreme Court on 4/1. Repubs have gerrymandered US congress seats such that 6 of WI’s 8 seats in the House went to Repubs. Hope for redistricting is to elect Judge Susan Crawford elected April 1. [Sen] Tammy [Baldwin] asks for support of Judge Crawford.
