Crush the arts (Kennedy Center), destroy the civil service (DOGE), control elections (gestures broadly), dismantle the press (gestures more broadly), decimate science (NIH), and demolish education (DeptEd). The authoritarian playbook.
Millions in vanity projects + billions in overpriced crony contracts + a pointless war + inefficient administration =
Billions wasted on ego and enrichment, instead of infrastructure, healthcare, and education.
Money that could reduce your costs is squandered on Trump’s greed.

It’s real, not science fiction. OpenAI’s rogue bots threaten civil privacy, national security, & public safety. We need protections & safeguards—like my Artificial Intelligence Risk Evaluation Act—against AI’s perils.
Ahmaud Arbery was killed by for RUNNING WHILE BACK. He was hunted down and murdered in cold blood in broad day light. He did nothing wrong.
This is a horrific moment in American history and it happened only six years ago.
Today I honor AHMAUD ARBERY.
"President Trump demands Canada change its French language, Quebec culture and Canadian identity as a condition for reversing tariffs. This is no longer about a trade deal-it is about a takeover of Canada's sovereignty and identity."
It seems increasingly likely that one day Americans are going to awaken to a mushroom cloud in the Middle East and the beginnings of a World War without a single politician in D.C. having taken a single meaningful step to remove an unambiguously psychopathic president from power
@ScienceTweets26 An important reminder for climate action. I support buying lower-emission foods, because what we eat often matters more than a simple "buy local" message when emissions are considered.
Putting that aside...
Republicans are watching him burn down the nation while stealing every penny of ours he can and doing absolutely nothing to stop him.
Of course they're losing.
The left has one job right now: stop treating authoritarianism like a debate club topic. It is here. It is funded. It is organized. It is wearing a flag pin and thumping a bible.
Jennifer Welch: “Boycott every fucking thing on CBS News. From the morning all the way through to the evening. These are the same people that fired Stephen Colbert because Trump got his feelings hurt by a comedian. These people are the biggest bunch of pussies that masquerade with these grandstanding letters like they’re such badasses. These people don’t care about the truth, they don’t care about journalism, they don’t care about the Constitution, they don’t care about a free press. It’s just absolutely devastating what these oligarchs have done to our country”
