Itβs almost as though everyone in Trumpβs orbit, inside and outside government, gets together on a (non-secure) Zoom call to decide βWhatβs the most corrupt and illegal thing we can do today?
And on some days they canβt reach consensus so they just go ahead and do them all.
I wonder where Alaskans will go to get health care?
We should probably be writing Murkowski, Sullivan, and Begich 3 about this tooβ¦
This is worth your time. Even if you've seen it before, watch is again today. Ronald Reagan on why and how immigrants make America great. β€οΈ

Iβve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as Iβm physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:
Cory Booker is now in his *third hour* on the Senate floorβstill speaking with heart, fire, and fierce conviction.
Heβs not just holding the floorβheβs holding the line for democracy.
This is what moral courage looks like.
Keep going, Senator.
We see you.
We stand with you.βπ½π

There are trans Americans right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist.
Well, I am. We are. We will.

MEMORANDUM OPINION βCFPB RIPβ Elon Musk β February 7, 2025 βThe CFPB has been a woke and weaponized agency against disfavored industries and individuals for a long time. This must end.β Russell Vought β February 8, 2025 βThat was a very important thing to get rid of.β President Donald Trump β February 10, 2025 The motion for preliminary injunction to be decided boils down to one question: should the Court take action to preserve the the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau now, before the case concerning its fate has been resolved? That is an extraordinary step, and before it can step in, the Court must conclude that the plaintiffs are likely to succeed on their claims, that they would suffer irreparable harm in the meantime if the Court lets the lawsuit run its course, and that an injunction would be in the public interest.
What an extraordinary way to start an opinion. (Spoiler: Judge Amy Berman Jackson holds that she must take action now to prevent the unlawful dissolution of the CFPB.) storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Also, lucky.
Yesterday, I fondly remembered my dear friend Leonard Nimoy, who would have turned 94. His legacy lives on in our hearts. Just days ago, Bill Shatner celebrated his 94th birthday β wishing him continued health and happiness. Live long and prosper, my friends.
Now things are really getting exciting

Wisconsin residents are receiving text messages from a (202) D.C. area code, falsely urging them not to vote in the upcoming election. These messages are not legitimate.

Did you hear that the much trumpeted mission to house 30,000 immigrants at Guantanamo Bay has completely failed and ended? Nah...they don't want you to know they burned over $16M for 290 people. But they got the pictures! Really. My latest. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...
