Every day it gets worse. Thanks for keeping up with this, David, and sharing with us. I cannot imagine the toll it is taking on your mental health as mine is at rock bottom. I cannot find anything in all of this mess to alleviate my anxiety other than just blocking it all and not paying attention.
Well, yes, it's Friday, the bad-news dump day, but honest to Christ, David, this is the worst! The criming, constitutional depredations, the self-dealing, the drive toward a "monarchy", with the Orange Felon prepared to call himself "King for life"...we've hit another new low, barely a month into this shitty regime.
Oh, and Musk has taken a page out of fecking tRump's shakedown manual by demanding that a huge advertisers consortium take out millions in new ads on Elno's X platform, or else - the "or else" would be a potential blocking of an upcoming merger, so boys, pay up now if you want that nice, shiny merger to go through.
looks like trump is going to follow the same plan Putin used when he and his oligarch friends took over Russia. All of the bleating sheep[D members of Congress, opinion writers and TV talking heads] who keep bleating that "It can't happen here" as the trump machine rolls over them and grinds them into the dirt are starting to discover, it can not only happen here, it already has. And nobody is doing anything to stop it. I guess no one thought everything would collapse so fast
MSM tossed out the Project 2025 blueprint for a fascist takeover as no more than yet another right-wing think-tank grifting for funding...say, NYT and WaPo, how do you like these apples, hmm?
Speechless.
Thank you for summarizing all of this and the links.
The links are critical when dealing with (sharing) folks who are not on our side. Thank you.

It was all written down in P2025. Sad. So sad.

Thank you David. We will
need TPM and Morning
Memo to keep us informed
and Up To Date, every day
you publish.
Project 2025 came out over a
year ago and we were
warned. ProPublica even
published P25s training
videos. What no one saw was
Musk's infiltration. Although
the visits by Victor Orban to
house republicans behind
closed doors, his 2 visits to
Mar a largo and then another
visit of Orban's delegates to
the republicans, again behind
closed doors, should have
been ringing some big bells.
He's Putin's BFF!
We have been asleep at the
wheel and have now caused
a major, horrific traffic
accident that has caused our
democracy to wind up in the
ditch, with a convicted felon
declaring himself king of the
United States and will
welcome war criminal
Vladimir Putin into our
country with open arms
and a red MAGA hat gift.
It's time to rename the Republican Party to America's Neo-Nazi Party: AN-NP
Americans have never been accused of being wise, but we've never been big on being ruled by monarchs either.
I don't think mad king Donald is going to hold onto this kind of power for 4 years or more. We will see.
I didn't think we should refer to the democratic name of DOJ. Under this regime it should henceforth be called the DOI, the Dept of Incels.
What on earth can we do?
Dreadful.
