"Our current inability to remove a mentally-incapacitated president is not because of flaws in the 25th Amendment or any other provision, but because we have allowed this exposure to continue for too long." bandyxlee.substack.com/p/the-most-d...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court REJECTS Department of Justice lawsuit to gain access to the state's unredacted copy of its statewide voter registration list. DOJ is now 0-11 in these cases. Elias Law Group is undefeated. It may be time to invoke the mercy rule. www.democracydocket.com/cases/new-ha...

BREAKING: SCOTUS votes 6-3 to PROTECT Birthright citizenship in Trump v Barbara, holding that a POTUS cannot repeal a Constitutional right by executive order. Gorsuch, Alito, & Thomas (A BLACK MAN) voted against Birthright Citizenship. All three need to be impeached and removed. This is absurd.

The narcissist psychopath demands adulation from the people he rules (he's not mentally capable of actual governance or leadership) but doesn't give anything in return. He is all powerful. Our lives mean nothing to him. We're just disposable objects he can use or discard on a whim.

It's long overdue .. (cartoon David Horsey) #politics

Liars got good Women and Mothers killed.

As the former President of South Korea serves a life sentence for his role in a failed insurrection, his wife just got sentenced to 7 years in prison for bribery. The US could learn a lot from South Korea what accountability looks like for power-hungry, corrupt grifters. youtu.be/nAUksLhLSKs?...

Agree With Robert De Niro.......👍🏼

"... and they'll go after the president's family, the cabinet, his donors, friends. Half of you in this room will be targeted." So you're protecting all the Epstein file criminals who've been trying to end democracy in our democratic republic? You're involved in that conspiracy too, Mike.

Grifting trillionaire and Trump co-conspirator Elon Musk's SpaceX stock is experiencing a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly this morning.

The fact that stephen miller is saying the US is closed to asylum seekers from Haiti while granting asylum to white South Africans should tell you all you need to know.

F*ck SCOTUS. They’re broken. They’re captured. They work for the oligarchy. We work for us. So do the people we elect. So let’s make sure they understand the brief. #expandthecourt

Love this time of year when I wake up every few days to find out SCOTUS is stripping away a new protection or liberty while also publishing a little snit fit about how they are right to do so according to nonsense they made up to appeal to the worst people on Earth

They jailed the goddamn Reflecting Pool before anybody in the Epstein files.

Q: What's the difference between Iran and Vietnam? A: 47 had a plan for getting out of Vietnam.

Mamdani: When I am speaking about AIPAC, I’m speaking about an organization that has fought any attempt to actually deliver safety to people not just in Palestine but, frankly, throughout much of the region. And it is a status quo of immorality. It is one that I will not accept.

Joe, Mamdani didn’t mess up here. You did. AIPAC is a group that enables antisemitism by supporting bigots like Donald Trump, & by shifting the blame for war crimes from Israel to Jewish people. AIPAC is a monstrous pro-murder organization. Saying otherwise just hurts the big tent you want to build

"Yet, humanity’s current existential crisis, or at least the end of an 80-year stretch of unprecedented peace—certainly the end of America as we know it—was predicted, because it was predictable." bandyxlee.substack.com/p/the-denial...

Pedolf's Ls for the week - "I love the inflation" - Mercilessly booed at Knicks game, naps - Rain-delayed White Trash UFC circus, naps - $14M pool renovation reflecting all his failures - Ignored at the G7 - Star-studded list of artists for OPC opening - Signs surrender in (checks notes) Versailles

Epstein survivor Dani Bensky: When you have somebody like Todd Blanche at the helm of the DOJ, it’s hugely problematic. He has the president’s best interests at heart. He does not have the American people’s best interests at heart. He’s so unfit to be the acting attorney general.

All colleges are not the same, boys and girls. This is what the Christo-fascists want to do to the whole country. If they succeed, the human race is going bye-bye. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFMc...

I know their racism has been normalized but wow. Have you listened to the latest racist insanity from Pete Hegseth? Fred Wellman talks about it with Kristen Clarke. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vso_...

1/ ICE built a biometric ID system for immigrants. Now it is scanning protesters and regular Americans. Palantir built the brain. Iris scanners capture the eyes. Smart glasses do it covertly in public. Five contracts. One dragnet. Big Brother is watching #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

"... a young person who has a disorder such as pathological narcissism may be unfit regardless of age, if he is too preoccupied with himself to consider the nation." bandyxlee.substack.com/p/donald-tru...

Obama Appreciation Day June 14, 2026 Trump had Obama’s portrait moved to a restricted, off-limits stairwell. It is out of sight of the public. The Grand Foyer, traditionally reserved for the most recent official presidential portrait was replaced with a painting commemorating Donald Trump.

I urge ALL AMERICANS to keep their guard up and be ready to fight. The mid-terms are NOT guaranteed. We have to fight voter suppression, gerrymandering intimidation, false claims, DOJ interference, and more. Check your registrations BEFORE voting. Spread the word.

Star Trek's lasting appeal is the idea that humanity can and will eventually get its shit together. That technology will free us from poverty and division to explore space. The ultimate "woke" idea. #StarTrek #politics

We don't need to defeat 20k ICE agents. We need to make it so they don't want to be ICE agents anymore.

"... rage outbursts will only escalate—until we choose to intervene properly. There is no avoidance of this fact." bandyxlee.substack.com/p/interventi...

The GOP in a nutshell!

Your daily dose of projection, brought to you buy the Republican party. We shouldn't call them Nazis, though. 🙄

Respect and support from the U.S. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼

More evidence the president is delusional. If he "called all the shots" this war would be over. He is struggling to even pretend he's in control. “He won’t have any choice,” Trump told the FT in a telephone interview. “I call the shots. I call all the shots. He [Netanyahu] doesn’t call the shots.”

Donald cannot handle the truth when he's confronted with it. We've seen countless examples of this. Here he runs away after blaming the reporter for not believing his lies and delusions. This might be normal for Trump, but it's not normal for a POTUS to behave like this (and for good reason).

There is no difference between Bari Weiss and Joseph Goebbels: Transforming real events into fiction to justify murder and advance a radical right ideology. I cannot express how dangerous this is.

We warned that Trump would push for his own secret police force if he was reelected. Violently suppressing dissent is the hallmark of an authoritarian regime. Bari Weiss's job is to *normalize* that violence any way she can.

82 years ago today my grandfather, who lied about his age to enlist in the military, was in one of the first waves of landing crafts to hit the beaches of Normandy. He's been gone a long time now, but today I remember him and the other brave souls who fought and died for a righteous cause.

Smart move, Abania (the protests, not the violence). Keep the seeds of corruption out of your soil. It's a lot more difficult to weed out once it takes root like it's done in America.

When we as Americans stop finding excuses why not to stand up and speak out against this corrupt & illegitimate cruel Nazi regime, then maybe, our country & democracy can be saved. Stop with the excuses.

A brilliant take on Trump's pardons by John Oliver. "... And the problem is, much like a Nikola truck, once we start going down that slope, it could be very difficult to come back." America has already reached terminal velocity on that slope. www.youtube.com/watch?v=crzx...

Trump landed in Wisconsin, we protested

Senate Republicans just started a marathon voting session known as vote-a-rama in the Senate. Not to improve your life. Not to lower your costs. But to funnel $70 billion more to ICE and the abuses I saw at Delaney Hall. Not another dime.

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets. Abolish ICE.

A late night preparing for Supreme Court opinions tomorrow morning. Here are the two that I am personally involved in: -Watson (GOP challenge to mail-in voting) -NRSC (GOP challenge to campaign finance) Whatever comes, Democracy Docket will have you covered. Subscribe now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Only someone as sick and delusional as Donald Trump would compare a lovely architectural work of art like the Eiffel Tower to the monstrosity now sitting on the WH lawn.

Judge Luttig: For a year and a half, the Department of Justice lawyers representing Donald Trump have lied, they've deceived, they've misled the federal courts over and over and over, and the federal courts have called them out for it.
