Why is no one speaking openly about the Musk, Trump, and Republican end game? They are trying to hobble resistance to their total control by deconstructing our institutions and NGOs, creating financial losses for all but the ultrawealthy, and undermining our capacity for an educated citizenry.

Nonprofits fill in the gaps for government and society. Musk is turning his attention to us. He's realized he can't break the back civil society without breaking us. Every dollar we raise or program we uphold to serve our communities is an act of defiance. Be strong!

Senate Republicans Perfect the Art of Appeasement In giving Trump basically everything he wants, they have defined deviancy down.

"Don’t speak out. Don’t stand up. Don’t apply your principles consistently. Just go along with the party and you’ll keep your job. This is a dereliction of duty by a Senate required under the Constitution." ICYMI John Avlon: www.thebulwark.com/p/senate-rep...

The Oval Office meeting today between Trump and Zelensky “reeked of a planned attack,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social writes.

“The Ukrainian leader did his best to stand up to the bullying, but Trump and Vance were playing to the cameras and the MAGA gallery at home.” theatln.tc/5tozgdyn

It shouldn't be controversial to say that the job of the Governor of Virginia is to stand up for Virginians.

Opinion | A Day of American Infamy (Gift Article) A dreadful moment for Ukraine, for the free world, for the legacy of an America that once stood for the principles of the Atlantic Charter.

Strong words from Bret Stephens: “Roosevelt and Reagan must be spinning in their graves, as are Churchill and Thatcher. It’s up to the rest of us to reclaim America’s honor from the gangsters who besmirched it in the White House.”

A Shameful, Appalling Spectacle In an Oval Office shitshow for the ages, Trump and Vance try to humiliate Ukraine’s wartime leader Zelensky.

"The spectacle of the president and vice president of the United States tag-teaming to bully the leader of a U.S.-allied democracy fighting for its life against an autocratic aggressor has appalled observers around the world." www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-vanc...

Please don't stop covering the people and organizations who are federal adjacent! We're nonprofits that serve our communities, uplift the most vulnerable, and support independent thought and action. We serve America - and reach places government can't! They're trying to break us too!

Opinion | Trump’s Tariff War Is Being Fought to Lower Taxes for the Wealthy President Trump is remaking the tax code to favor the well-off even more, and cloaking these changes in a veneer of nationalism.

I'd thought it, but now I see it written in a more articulate and reasoned manner. Trump's tariffs are meant to widen our wealth gap through what are essentially regressive taxes on the most vulnerable. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/o...

It's great to have a fresh start on Blue Sky today! Apropos of our hound and hiking centered weekends, here's one from the Monticello trail. Trying so hard to set up for a pack selfie!
