None of this is normal, you know. The Overton window has moved so far that it's on the other side of the world now. That's what happens when you let a deranged, treasonous criminal become leader of a country -- not just once, but twice.

The absolute bottom of the journalistic barrel is people in the media chiding Scott Pelley for having the gall to confront Bilton. If you want a job licking boots, become a bootlicker. You’re not a journalist.

If you do not understand by now that this vile edifice has nothing to do with dancing and everything to do with the imposition of martial law in Washington, I don't know what to tell you except that it's time to put the Berenstain Bears books aside and start reading history books

HE'S NEVER LEAVING. HE'S PREPARING FOR WAR. One major clue is the creation of a ten-story Führerbunker below the White House that'll be topped with a massive sniper tower and drone port. Oh, and also HE STARTED AN ARMED REBELLION the last time he had to leave office. WAKE UP.

Make Trump's domestic terrorists accountable.

Everything makes sense once you understand this.

Talarico: I’m an eighth-generation Texan. I’ve been eating barbecue since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment. And if all they have on me is lying about me being a vegan, I feel pretty good about our chances this November.

I did not realize it was possible for a human being to put his own head so far up another person’s rear end. That is impressive.

This is your pre-Memorial Day reminder that the Unknown Soldier did not give his life in battle so that a fascist, corrupt, sociopathic criminal from Queens could lead a treasonous insurrection against the United States or implement a fascist oligarchy here. 🇺🇸 Photo: U.S. Army/Elizabeth Fraser

🚨 🚨 🚨 NEW: A shocking @USCIS memo seems to declare that hundreds of thousands of immigrants living in this country and applying for green cards must instead apply for visas abroad; which could MASSIVELY disrupt lives. 🧵 on what we know, and what we don’t.

Since we’re going after Cuba’s leadership that shot down a plane in Cuban airspace in 1996, what are the chances of going after the Saudi Arabian leadership that financed and trained the 9/11 hijackers?

www.alternet.org/trump-maniac/ there is only one way to stop him and that is for the republicans to reattach their balls and spine and say we have had enough and sadly that will never happen

Steve Vladeck on the $1.8 bn slush fund: Every so often a story comes along that is so brazen, so cleanly emblematic of the moment we are living through, that staying quiet about it feels like a kind of complicity unto itself.

They probably won’t pay attention until there are people in driveways and at country clubs - or until we all shut our wallets.

There was no "settlement." It's just theft. Except the guy who's supposed to guard the money works for the thief and opens the vault to let the thief come in and take the money. Then he promises not to punish the thief for anything, or to even investigate him. These people all belong in prison.

NEW: Epstein survivor Annie Farmer about Todd Blanche testimony about wanting to hear from Epstein survivors: "Blanche’s suggestion that survivors reach out to the Dept of Justice to re-report the crimes committed against them is beyond insulting. Many of us have already done that, repeatedly"

The BARE MINIMUM you do to a criminal defense lawyer who signs a non-prosecution agreement with HIS OWN CLIENT is disbar him. But that is insufficient for Todd Blanche, who took an OFFICIAL ACTION as acting AG as part of a BRIBE to hold his job permanently. He must be indicted.

For 50+ years Marines and their families poisoned on Camp Lejeune have been fighting to get funds to help them deal with their illness caused by the corporate stooges poisoning the water, while Trump's January 6th domestic terrorists are getting front of the line, VIP treatment from Republicans.

🚨BREAKING: Todd Blanche confirmed at a Senate panel Tuesday that top Department of Justice officials are working with other Trump administration agencies to implement President Donald Trump’s dangerous and restrictive executive order on mail voting. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

NEW EPISODE: An anti-voting group recently released its playbook to severely restrict mail-in voting, eliminate same-day voter registration, and impose rigorous ID requirements. I break down the provisions that will make it harder for you to cast a ballot. youtu.be/3y0OtyVuc2Y?...

Trump earlier this year bought as much as $680,000 in stock of Eli Lilly, the maker of blockbuster obesity drugs, as the agencies he oversees undertook an agenda that benefited the company. This is revealed in Trump's quarterly ethics report. In healthcare, however, the trades for Lilly—a company

Ring the bell because for the first time ever: Jim Cramer is stunned silent. Just like the rest of us, he’s seeing the President commit insider trading right in front of our very eyes.

If I ever hear a Republican say they’re “fiscally conservative” ever again I’m going to laugh really loudly right in their stupid fucking face.

Russia wins again.

Accurate.

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

Anti-voting group released a sweeping new “model laws” handbook that urges lawmakers and election officials to restrict mail-in voting, eliminate same-day voter registration, conduct mass voter challenges and empower officials to deny/delay certification. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Felon Trump wants to drop his $10 BILLION collusion lawsuit against the IRS in exchange for a $1.7 BILLION slush fund of taxpayer money to pay his allies & friends who allege they’ve been victims of Biden Administration “weaponization.” The latest on this grifty scheme. youtu.be/zhtODVVhTdc?...

"Let them eat lobster balls" Trump risks a "Marie Antoinette" moment: A regal China trip, golf course revamp, reflecting pool and ballroom ......... as gas and grocery prices soar JUST FILED my daily editorial briefing: open.substack.com/pub/macfarla...

Hi. According to an official publication of the United States government, I'm now a terrorist, simply because I'm antifascist. Please come arrest me, then. I'll be waiting for you, just sitting here exercising my First and Second Amendment rights and drinking my coffee.

It’s true, a mother’s love is the most powerful force on Earth. So this goes out to all mothers, including pet moms, step moms, foster moms, everyone stepping into a mom’s shoes, and anyone missing their mom. The world would be a better place with moms in charge. 🥰

“The most important thing for the public to understand,” Roberts told C-SPAN in 2009, “is that we’re not a political branch of government. They do not elect us.If they do not like what we are doing, it’s more or less just too bad.”

The ghost of Jefferson Davis is thrilled with what Americans are allowing Republicans to do to America.

Todd Blanche is playing stupid here. You don't have to be a genius to understand how the presence of masked, armed thugs at polling places might affect turnout.

Because we Gen-X'ers all know the lyrics to Leonard Cohen's "Everybody Knows" by heart, none of this shit comes as a surprise to us. youtu.be/Gxd23UVID7k?...

Trump's illegal war in Iran cost US airlines $1.8B in March alone, a 56% increase (or 800% using Trump's funny math). Don't worry. I'm sure all the rest are more resilient than Spirit. www.reuters.com/business/ene...

I think there's something wrong with Todd Blanche. He just doesn't look right.

NATO air defense drills hosted recently in Romania saw allied troops tracking and downing drone swarms in the latest sign of how the country has become a nerve center for efforts to stymie potential Russian incursions. From Stars and Stripes' John Vandiver:
