Trump’s Regime Is Collapsing As DOGE Implodes In Disgrace, Foreign MAGA Trolls Exposed, ICE City Partnerships Crumble, While Crockett Slams Quitter Marge Greene and AOC Brings Holiday Joy To NYC Families Demolishing the maga propaganda machine Scott Dworkin Nov 24 Happy Monday to you! Thanks for taking time out of your day to read this news brief. I hope it gives you some relief from all of the Trump regime’s madness—even if only for a moment. Before we jump in: I do everything possible to make sure we’re never controlled by corporations or billionaires. But that means we depend entirely on the backing by our community here, to keep our journalism and activism going. So if you haven’t yet, I hope you’ll join us as a paid subscriber today: Let’s jump in. AOC DELIVERS BIG Dem Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continues to use her massive social media reach to help out Americans who need it most. At the start of the school year, we reported that her campaign and volunteers provided 3,000 backpacks full of supplies for students. Now, AOC and her team are helping bring joy to thousands of folks in NYC for the holiday season—already giving out 1,600 turkeys throughout the Bronx. AOC said they also brought in “an additional $20,000 above our raise goal, which we are giving 100% to local food pantries to help feed families this Thanksgiving.” PUSHBACK AGAINST ICE After immense public pressure, a number of communities have formally said no to partnerships with ICE. The Dallas City Council rejected the idea, as did Center Line, Michigan, and Palmyra, Wisconsin—among others. Separately, protests against ICE were held at The Home Depot stores across the country this week. In Monrovia, California, at least 100 demonstrators showed up to participate in what’s known as a “buy-in.” Carrying signs into the store that read “ICE out of Home Depot,” folks purchased 17-cent ice scrapers and immediately lined up to return them. MAGA ACCOUNTS EXPOSED Elon Musk’s Twitter/X decided to make user location information publicly available—revealing every account’s country of origin, and where they’re currently located. This is something we’ve been demanding for nearly a decade, to help fight back against foreign propaganda troll farms. And guess what? Dozens of MAGA “influencers” were unmasked, revealing them to be trolls located in foreign countries like Bangladesh, India, Nigeria, Russia, and elsewhere. Some MAGA folk were quite disappointed to find out I’m actually based out of the United States. I’m glad maga is getting called out for this, and it’s a reminder that social media may not be what it seems. On Substack, for example, there have been more than ten fake accounts pretending to be me or my family members. So to confirm, the only legit account associated with me is the one with the purple checkmark next to my name. DOGE DISBANDED Speaking of Elon Musk, Trump’s DOGE has apparently disbanded. The “agency” wasn’t supposed to wrap things up until July of next year, but according to the Office of Personnel Management, DOGE simply “doesn’t exist.” I assume they’re worried about covering up the damage they’ve done. But if Democrats take back the House in 2026, probing DOGE will likely be one of the first things they do. PROJECTING COURAGE A picture was projected onto the University of Pittsburgh’s campus, showing six military Veterans in Congress who released a video asking troops to not obey illegal orders. Above the image was a message that read: “This is what courage looks like.” Dem Rep. Jason Crow stated: “Fear is contagious, but so is courage.” It sure is. CROCKETT ON MARGE In an interview Sunday, Dem Rep. Jasmine Crockett shared her response to GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s resignation from Congress, stating: “Honestly, I was like, you got to be kidding. You’re on the other side of [Trump] for one week and you can’t take the heat? Imagine what it is to sit in my shoes.” Exactly. And after fighting Trump for a decade, I definitely have been one of the most threatened opponents of him and his cult. Especially when I was leading the first impeachment campaign and our 2016 investigation into Trump’s Russian business ties. But that has never once slowed me down—it has only fueled my fire. It’s why we formed our activism arm in November—The Watchdog Coalition—where we’ve always gone above and beyond reporting the news. To fight back against this unhinged regime, we’ve generated billions of impressions in our social media campaigns, and our Contact Congress effort has reached lawmakers 530,000 times. But we need all hands on deck to keep this operation completely independent of corporate influence. So if you haven’t yet, I hope you’ll join us in our fight against Trump by becoming a paid subscriber today: Onward! Scott Like this post and re-stack using the ♻️ button below, to help this news break through the noise! I have two questions for you today. How do you think we can best handle lowering the number of threats against public officials? Is it just as simple as removing toxic people like Trump from elected office? Or is it deeper than that? What do you think about DOGE being disbanded early? Today we are focused on these four actions: Stand with Ukraine over Russia: https://tinyurl.com/2khn59cr Support discharge petition to force vote on ACA tax credits: https://tinyurl.com/w23tnvxm Help us push for an investigation into the Epstein scandal HERE: https://tinyurl.com/4pfh2p4f Pass bill on unmasking ICE and displaying clear ID here: https://tinyurl.com/bp8cau82 COMMENTS:  DOGE was illegal, and it was Elon Musk who started it. He also was illegal. AOC puts her money where her mouth is♥️ MUSKRAT was raised in SOUTH AFRICA during the APARTHEID ABUSE & brought with him those warped racist oppressive views. (That's part of the reason to opose bringing WHITE SOUTH AFRICANS to the US.) MUSKRAT & COUCH CUDDLER JD VANCE traveled to GERMANY to support the RISING NAZI PARTY - called by another name pretending they're not NAZIS. There are other comments in this thread addressing the failures of RED STATES to get over the CIVIL WAR. By continuing RACISM & OPPRESSION, it allows REPUBLICANS to distract from their failed policies. If you focus on BATHROOM REGULATIONS, SAME SEX MARRIAGE & TARGET TRANS PEOPLE, you don't have to address the pathetic demographics: high poverty, piss poor education, piss poor health care, maternal & infant mortality rates comparable to Third World nations, environmental failures & pollution (like CANCER ALLEY), lack of pre-natal & post natal care...when you blocked access to PBS/NPR, cable access, library access, & promote media limited to propaganda like SINCLAIR, "KEEP 'EM STUPID" is the tactic. Because their healthcare systems are so limited, one of the issues ignored is PRE-NATAL TESTING. There has been a sharp increase in CONGENITAL SYPHILIS due to the failure to test, among numerous other issues. https://www.cdc.gov/syphilis/about/about-congenital-syphilis.html Remember that President Biden targeted RED STATES because they lagged so far behind. REPUBLICANS opposed those efforts. Think about why anyone would oppose economic opportunities, lower internet access costs...."KEEP 'EM STUPID" ! While it's worked for REPUBLICANS for decades, notice that DEMOCRATIC groups have targeted those states & are winning elections. It's expensive - requires lots of folks knocking on doors, lots of time. I encourage you to monitor THE DOWN BALLOT for races that are being targeted & won. Watch for SPECIAL ELECTIONS that can be targeted to win. Just as a footnote, MUSKRAT's SPACEX exploded over the CARIBBEAN causing flight delays & debris spread. The FAA adminstrators FINED Muskrat & suspended SPACE X flights. MUSKRAT got him fired & we ended up with FOX NEWS INCOMPETENT BOOB SEAN DUFFY who can't keep planes in the air, but did a great video circulated internationally.
