@acrossthemersey @BNOFeed That’s not to suggest that you have access to good medical care or that your precaution has created ideal conditions, of course, but I don’t think we should be too glib in underestimating how different our situations are because we are informed.

@JStein_WaPo @elonmusk The infuriating part of all of this is that between Trump et al TELLING US THIS IS WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO + enlisting a billionaire with a history of using this playbook in his own companies, Dems should have at least had a sliver of an idea of what to do on day 1. Or 19.

@Deve_Dy @strawhatguy @PattyMurray I STUDY these research frameworks! & can confidently say that E. musk and cronies are betting a lot of money (and their freedom?) on the American public not putting 2&2 together on how he made his companies + fortune. He’d be nothing without academia/government partners.

@strawhatguy @PattyMurray I think you’re skipping some steps-- the place for “taxpayer” input on this topic is via Congress during debate over appropriations.

@DemocraticWins “protest” without disruption, “protest” without accessibility, “protest” without addressing @TheDemocrats’ complicity in the material conditions that handed Elon power— that basically describes the uselessness of the party.

BREAKING: Senator Chris Murphy just organized this massive protest of Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s seizure of power. Democrats are organized and ready to fight back. Let’s go.
