In case you haven’t realized yet not ONE repuglican cares about any of this. They don’t read the same news (hell I doubt they even know how to read) they don’t follow INFORMED people on ANY social media or any kind of media.

“They” don’t care.

This article isn't for them. It's for people on our side that want to have a single link they can go to in order to see whatever the fascists are doing to destroy OUR government right now.

Thank you for this. John Bates was nominated by the Bush Administration. He has, surprisingly, ruled with and against each party. This one makes no sense, however.

We really do think alike. I was complaining yesterday about these resignations and not staying and fighting.

I'm starting to get frustrated with people celebrating these TROs, and these champions of character who are resigning.

I'm about to write an article that will be titled something like: "Ezra Klein is a naive checkers player"

All the people sitting back with their popcorn waiting for the courts to save us, for the principled people in government to stop this fascist train will be the reason the train runs us all over...

They fundamentally misunderstand Trump and Elon's objective, which is super simple:

Put enough stress on the government—specifically anyone in government who isn't a bootlicking sycophant by either firing them or pushing them to quit—until it collapses. Then they can just replace it with a full fascist regime.

I just sent the email to blue sky moderation. However, I will keep posting your content on my blue sky account and driving traffic to Substack for you.

I think that the emails are already working.

They have unsuspended the account, though it is now currently marked as spam.

I have no idea to what degree that will limit my reach within Bluesky :( That's pretty much the only place I post online now.

BlueSky was purchased by crypto bros a few months ago. really would be wise to not intend to make that your long term digital home. (p.s. they own this app too - a16z has a board seat at Substack)

Mastodon is really the only safe harbor.

They see it...I was at a bar yesterday and Faux news was on... But their blaming Democrats for what's happening with the Airplanes crashes, everything he has already destroyed is "Democracy's fault"

That's why I keep telling people that this idea that they're just going to realize that their guy is f*ing things up on their own IS NEVER going to happen.

We need to push a strong message.

killing the CFPB has been Marc Andreessen, Brian Armstrong, and the rest of the crypto bros' #1 goal from the get go and is almost certainly why they donated so much money to the election in 2024 (on both sides!)

Thanks!

At first, I was just making myself a tracker, because everything is so crazy right now, I was having trouble keeping it all in my head. Then I was like, hey, I'm sure other people could probably benefit from it too.
