Democracy requires decency.

Our democracy is devolving because we neglected to demand common decency of the most powerful individual in our country; the President.

Protect this law at all costs !

This obscure law is one reason Trump's agenda keeps losing in court

Lawsuits challenging Trump policies raise big constitutional questions, but they also rely on a law that requires the government to follow the correct procedures when changing course.

Useless AF Tuberville. Alabama, you could have the GREAT Senator Doug Jones who not only gave a DAMN about you but he desperately tried to help expand Medicaid.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · Feb 13

Trump just screwed Alabama twice—Tuberville is silent.

NIH funding cuts hit the University of Alabama, risking jobs & life-saving research. Also Trump’s executive order killed grants, letting utility companies raid Alabamians’ bank accounts.

No wonder they call him Florida Man—he’s MIA in Alabama.

Kamala should do rallies again. With Newsom. And Jasmine Crockett. And Buttigieg. And AOC. And Wes Moore. And Bernie. All of them united. One rally per month. Mostly about billionaires taking over. Groceries and jobs. Fuck this clown. People want to fight back. It would make his diaper explode.

With Elon Musk, an unelected plutocrat, six weeks from becoming co-President of the United States, many people are just starting to research who he really is—that is, beyond the basics most already know.

Or, rather, think they know—as most of those basics are untrue.

This thread reveals the truth.
