Musk & Trump will use OMB & his nominee, Russell Vought, to shut off the money to punish groups they don't like.
That includes #USAID, #LGBTQ & #Trans groups, even though Congress has approved their funding.

Here's #Vought describing to #TuckerCarlson how the Office of Management & Budget uses #OMB to "tame" the bureaucracy.

THIS is why #indivisible
@indivisibleteam suggested to people meet with Senators to block the confirmation of Vought.

Remember: Putin wants there to be an election in Ukraine. An election where he could meddle in.

Putin also says Zelensky is illegimate, because there was a coup against his puppet Yanukowich that instantiated him.

Coincidentally, this is exactly what Tucker Carlson has been going on about in public for the last few weeks.

And I bet you MAGA is lapping this shit up. It's just an Americanised version of what Putin wants.

They don't care about grocery prices..

here: No matter what substantive issue I’m engaging on, whether it’s Hungary’s continued dependence upon Vladimir Putin for its energy supply despite intensive efforts to encourage them to diversify or the independence of the judiciary in Hungary, the way that the Hungarian government tries to respond and publicly contextualize our critique is by making it somehow about woke, liberal, Democratic activists. I remember my very first meeting with a senior Hungarian official, a really nice guy, but he began the meeting by saying, Ambassador, I know that you want to speak to us about L.G.B.T.Q. issues and gender ideology. And I actually had to interrupt the guy and say, No, actually, I want to speak to you about your relationship with Vladimir Putin. So I think that the language that they used was to encode the critique in a frame of, “This is L.G.B.T.Q.” — in their words — “ideology infecting our society,” even if what was generating the legitimate political concern didn’t have much to do with L.G.B.T.Q. issues at all.

Continued thread

well this toot blew up lol... i guess one thing i take away from it is the extent to which "character is destiny" and how the character of the #Nazi regime was painfully obvious to people of good faith even from its first moments (to that end I also recommend Dorothy Thompson's 1941 essay "Who Goes Nazi?").

unfortunately while there are dissimilarities between that crew and trump's, e.g. the glorification of war, it's also true that there are a lot of scary war loving fascists on team #Trump. Ken Silverstein managed to get a hold of a private group chat featuring a lot of these folks earlier this year. Who was in the chat:

- #ErikPrince (#IraqWar Blackwater massacre guy)
- #KimberlyGuilfoyle (Don Jr's gf)
- #MichaelFlynn
- #NRA guys
- #AfD guys
- #TuckerCarlson
- Israeli intel
- Congressmen who resigned in various scandals

...and worse.
