In his latest power grab, Trump has given himself the power to remove the heads of independent agencies despite longstanding precedent that says he can't do that (what's new, I guess). This will put the power to regulate major companies and protect consumer and worker safety into the hands of Trump loyalists hellbent on dismantling the entire government and removing regulations in favor of monied interests. And he's put Russell Vought, a key architect of Project 2025, at the head of all of it.

In an apparent (alleged) quid pro quo with the Justice Department, the corruption case against New York Mayor Eric Adams has been dismissed. The DOJ can still revive the charges at any time, giving Trump significant leverage over the Mayor of the largest city in the United States. Adams has already opened Riker's Island for ICE use, and there's no telling what more he'll be (allegedly) coerced into doing under this clearly (allegedly) corrupt deal he's struck with the DOJ.

Trump, Elon Musk, JD Vance, and others are calling into question the legitimacy of the judicial branch as judges across the country step in the way of some of the worst of the Trump administration's orders. Whether or not MAGA respects the rule of law is the last thing standing in the way of complete constitutional crisis.

Trump and Elon and all the Republicans are ruining everything, and Democrats are sitting on their hands while shrugging or writing strongly worded letters and tweeting. WHERE'S the opposition?? It's time for Dems to play dirty.

Elon Musk, despite being an unelected private citizen, is running rampant through the federal government, using DOGE to shut down USAID, gain access to highly classified information and payment systems in the treasury department, and so much more. He's bringing the move fast and break things mentality of silicon valley to Washington DC, to the detriment of us all.

Chaos is the point. The shock and awe of Trump's various, quick moving immigration orders is meant to distract us and render us overwhelmed. Here's what you need to know and how to protect yourself and others. As with most things lately, it's important to focus on what you can actually control.

Today we choose pettiness. In honor of Trump and the White House removing the US Constitution from its official website, I am going to read it out loud in its entirety, with additional commentary to add context. Put this on like an audiobook and let the sweet dulcet tones of the founding fathers fill the air. Share it widely.

Can The Courts Stop Trump?

Friday Jan 24, 2025

Friday Jan 24, 2025

Within hours of some of Trump's more heinous executive actions, civil rights groups and attorneys general filed numerous lawsuits against Schedule F employee status, DOGE, and the bar on birthright citizenship. This is just the beginning of a long legal slog, but will it be enough to stop Trump and his cronies from undoing literal centuries of legal precedent?

Wednesday Jan 22, 2025

A flurry of executive actions have made Trump's first 48 hours in office a whirlwind of chaos that's hard to follow. So I wanted to get into the weeds and lay out every executive action taken thus far, because it's important to stay vigilant. From border emergencies to putting people over fish, these are the actions you need to know about from Trump's first 48 hours.
