The problem with waiting for the courts to push back on Trump is that the damage has often been done before any resolution.

Killing people here to kill people somewhere else seems on brand for these republicans. Irony is this ensures they lose even bigger this November.

If the estimates were right, there were about 9 million people at No Kings rallies today. That would mean this protest was THIRTY TIMES AS LARGE AS THE TEA PARTY PROTEST which we were told, over and over again, was a massively important sign that US politics had shifted dramatically to the right

I don’t think everyone understands that it felt like being occupied by an outside army. Because it was like that.

What a day! ❌ 👑

Over eight million Americans took to the streets today, which makes No Kings 3 the biggest single day of protest in the history of our country. #NoKings

🚨 THIS JUST IN: With over 100 protests still to come, we can already estimate that at least 8 million people participated in No Kings protests today. That makes No Kings 3 the largest single day of protest in American history. #NoKings

If I’ve learned one thing about Donald Trump it’s that if there are options on the table he’ll always pick the worst one and double down. This is happening. Nightmare scenario.

On the 250th year anniversary of our Declaration of Independence against a king, we have a president who wants his signature on our currency & his name stamped on our institutions. We didn't trade one crown for another. Join the No Kings marches this weekend.

This movement is for ALL of us. #NoKings has ADA-compliant events across the country tomorrow. Find your spot. 👇

They started a war of choice for absolutely no reason, with no real strategy and no real preparation, and the end result will be a global situation that is, in every single way, worse than what it was when they started.

NEW: An AI-generated LEGO movie out of Iran depicting Trump as a war hungry pedophile has gone viral online and in the US. It's one of many. Meanwhile, Trump's AI slop isn't resonating with anyone but his own base. And yes, to be clear, this just speaks to how bad things are.

The people who complained about weaponization of the justice system against Trump have not only engaged in true weaponization, they have also purged every public official who investigated Trump

In shutting down Sora—its app for AI-generated videos—OpenAI seems to “finally be learning that slop is not a business strategy,” @lilashroff.bsky.social argues:

Entirely too much of our system depended on Norma and good faith.

the level of completely fanatical delusion in this “cabinet meeting” is off the fucking charts *even by trump II standards*, the whole reason trump got *reelected* is because americans viscerally hate volatility

Just so we're clear here, Trump installed his own defense lawyer as the Deputy Attorney General and had him lead the purge of the federal prosecutors who brought cases against Trump.

Your reminder that Donald Trump thinks that this is all a reality tv show.

You know why I'm going to make mail-In ballots illegal for the rest of you? Because you aren't president of the United States, that's why. It's good to be Emperor Drumpty 🙄

Again, this isn’t how NATO works. They aren’t obligated to take part in wars the United States intentionally starts. This man is a fool who lives in his own reality.

This is either an open admission of a massive intelligence failure or an open admission of a massive failure to brief the president on the possible consequences of starting a war with Iran. Neither option makes Trump/Hegseth look good.

Corporate America, by in large - rewards presentations and talking about doing work. Doing the work day in and day out is rarely rewarded. It's essentially a popularity contest cranked up to 11.

OpenAI news: 1. Sora is dead. May the memory of its four-month existence as a copyright infringement machine be a blessing. 2. Disney is pulling out of its billion-dollar investment in OpenAI entirely. Turns out when you try to serve AI slop on a product people pay for, no one wants it.

A normal Congress would simply pass the bill, have the President veto it, and then override the veto

The US government collected over $1 billion in immigration fees then refused to process the applications. No denials. No refunds. Just silence. This is the largest fee fraud in the history of the American immigration system. Here's what's happening. 🧵

the republican justices are as pickled in MAGA slop as any pardoned jan 6er

The battle for Iwo Jima resulted in over 26,000 US casualties, making it one of the bloodiest Marine actions in history.

As a Marine platoon leader in Vietnam, Mueller was shot and later returned to lead his platoon after his recovery. He received a Bronze Star for valor, a Purple Heart, 2 Navy/Marine Commendation medals, Republican of Vietnam Cross of Valor, and numerous other medals.

it's hard not to keep coming back to the fact that they could simply have Not Done This they could have not bombed Iran! the strait would be open! we wouldn't be staring down a massive global economic crisis! none of this had to happen!

Potentially unsalvageable country.

It is going to take decades to undo the diplomatic damage this man has done.

The people who cancelled Jimmy Kimmel after Charlie Kirk's assassination will now control television stations that reach 80% of Americans, twice that what was legally allowed before Trump's takeover. The state capture of network television is almost complete.

Of course they weren't... they would have said no.

Live Nation managed to bribe the Trump DOJ to drop its antitrust case for just $500,000. It's a deal so bad that even some red states have refused to settle. @lizdye.bsky.social tells you everything you need to know in the latest @legaleagle.tv Go! Watch! www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AQP...

BREAKING: Republicans ONCE AGAIN blocked our bill to simply pay TSA agents. This is the SEVENTH time Republicans have blocked our attempts to fund the rest of DHS while talks to rein in ICE continue.

“Parliament had turned over its constitutional authority to Hitler and thereby committed suicide, though its body lingered on in an embalmed state.” Shirer, William L. The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich (p. 331)

I have many issues with working in #corporate America. Up there on the list is people who don’t know how to, or refuse to use free/busy information when booking meetings. #Tech

Wow... you don't say? This isn't how NATO works.

I've said many times that AI is an enshittification accelerator and this is the case with NVIDIA DLSS 5. This is not progress in visual tech, it's defacing of art. Is this our future? Removing the human creativity from everything in favor of more money?

These are the things that have historically led to revolutions. Not sustainable.

Trump claimed today that he predicted 9/11. He's out of his mind. The media need to be writing about his mental unfitness every day until we get rid of him and save our country. (As I wrote last October.)

Breast cancer mortality dropped 58% from 1975 to 2019. Localized, early detected breast cancer has a 99% 5 year survival rate. Modern mammogram tech was developed by NASA for telescopes. Last year, RFK Jr. cancelled 87 research grants on breast cancer. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/u...

It was revealed last week that Trump got a $10 billion bribe for helping steal TikTok and give it to his right wing billionaire friends under the pretense of national security and it barely enjoyed a two hour news cycle

Anyone know who runs usconstitution.net ? It seems to have been enshittified in the past week. Is this a government website? I noticed my links were 404, and now the landing page is basically propaganda.

As US politicians campaign for this year’s elections—and look ahead to the 2028 presidential contest—they need to take data center opposition seriously as a salient issue, writes Ben Green. The opportunity is substantial, particularly for Democrats, he says.

Better headline: Republicans refuse to fund FEMA, TSA and CISA during their DHS shutdown.
