I haven’t had to fly in several years. That being said, you couldn’t get me on an airplane during the shutdown. All the support people will be forced to work with no pay. It’s going to be a shitshow. trump and republicans hate us and our country.

Fucking Hakeem Jeffries is sending out pleas for money. I just got one in my Messages. He can’t do the job he was elected to do and still thinks I would give him a penny? He can jump in a burning pit as far as I’m concerned.

1 transgender shooter GOP: "We must institutionalize all transgenders!" 47,209 white male shooters GOP: "This is the cost of freedom."

Trump leaked this story because he wants to you hear it. Let’s be clear :: Trump wants you to blame a shutdown for shit he is planning to do anyhow. If dems cave and fund him, he will STILL wield executive power and slash government programs. He HAS BEEN doing that with the government open.

Listen to someone who has been through it under Putin.

Friday random thought… 🤔 I wonder if Stephen Millers wife is one of the many “sleeper cells”? It sort of makes sense because she’s not a bad looking woman and seems intelligent enough. Miller is a physically and mentally repulsive man who seldom dated before her. Maybe I’m just suspicious.

Incredible. NYT reports that career DOJ prosecutors investigated James Comey and directly informed Trump's political appointees that there was insufficient evidence to get a conviction. Gonna keep suggesting that Trump's authoritarian designs are running into deep resistance (see piece below).

Is it just me or does it seem Netanyahu and Putin are priming for a world war?

Good morning

Murphy: "The second remedy is for the Dem Party to make clear that if you give us power, we're gonna break up these media monopolies... if we want to be credible as a critic of Trump's slide to totalitarianism, we have to explain how we're gonna put local communities back in charge of their news."

"Trump and Vance are making clear that they consider it their right, and their pleasure, to murder anyone, anywhere, for any reason or for no beyond a passing whim. That’s an ugly message to Venezuelans. It’s an ugly message to the UN and Americans as well." — @nberlat.bsky.social

There are days I wished voodoo dolls of trump, Vance and mouse Johnson really worked.

The murdering of illegally detained people is ok now? Is that where we are in this trump country nightmare?

Accurate summary:

Marco Rubio needs to go to prison. In Gitmo.

🤷🏼

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

The most important thing to know about Trump’s acetaminophen announcement is that the GOP is still hiding the Epstein files

When you use AI, consider this: the massive energy demands of AI data centers are driving up electricity costs. As well known, the use of water for cooling is also huge. The costs are socialized, the revenues go to the companies. www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...

As @dandrezner.bsky.social notes, we must highlight where Trump's authoritarianism is failing, too. "Civil resistance works. Combined with the inevitable economic downturn, it is what will bring his regime crashing down to Earth." (cites my piece on this) danieldrezner.substack.com/p/the-weakne...

The American Media is sucking Trump's balls. They can't be bothered.

The Christians are expecting the Rapture to be coming this Tuesday. Wouldn’t it be funny if on Monday, everyone should go to goodwill and buy old clothes or clean out your closets, then around midnight, take the clothes to churches and spread them around. To much? 🤣🤣🤣

I wish everyone at a pro-democracy org or think tank (and many people in politics) would take the time to read this.

NEW: In a rare public appearance, Jack Smith spoke at length this week issuing a dire warning about Trump's weaponization of the Department of Justice. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-jack-s...

#BREAKING According to Reuters, the Pentagon has informed European diplomats that the U.S. will partially halt military aid to the Baltic states and NATO member countries bordering Russia. The department stated that the decision is linked to America’s new priority — “Homeland Defense Priority.”

Many media outlets hid the full truth of Trump -- his background in organized crime, his Epstein ties -- out of fear, only to be obliterated by him in the end. Had they not self-censored then, they might not be state-censored now. When you hide the truth, you face the consequences.

Cardinal Timothy Dolan failed to report direct admissions of rape by multiple priests, lobbied against extending the statute of limitations for sex abuse, and moved money off the church books to hide it from victims of sex abuse. In case you were wondering.

How much longer before trump has windmills arrested?

I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AN ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA! I AM ANTIFA!

YES!!! in keeping with my suggestions below

Congressman Robert Garcia is launching an investigation into ABC. That’s a small start. But, may I suggest an investigation into the Walt Disney Company who owns ABC. Who was the genius who decided Disney would become a leg of the fascist trump regime? Time for a strike of all Disney companies.

ZINKE: A news outlet called President Trump a Nazi 3,000 times. 3,000 times! SEAWRIGHT: His own vice president called him a Nazi

DOJ quietly deletes study showing most domestic terrorism in America is right-wing. White supremacists. Militias. Poof, gone!

The freedom to vote is under growing threat as we see increasing attacks on pro-voting groups that help register voters. Countering these efforts makes prioritizing voter registration more crucial than ever, writes Brian Miller.

Who will be the next “collateral damage” to take the focus off trump and his best buddy, Epstein? trump is in the Epstein papers so many times that 1000 people have been put to the task of blacking out his name. Seems innocent enough 🙄

An obvious cover-up of a wrongful killing.
