NEW: The government's case against Kilmar Abrego is falling apart. @klasfeldreports.com and I discuss today's hearing, and it did NOT go well for the government. www.muellershewrote.com/p/were-done-...

Rep. Jason Crow: “Karoline Leavitt is outright lying. Actually, what she said from the podium is that there was an encouragement of disobeying lawful orders. We actually said the exact opposite.”

I love my hometown of CHICAGO 🧵1 I went to Catholic school but I no longer believe in organized religion... But I love POPE LEO Governor JB PRITZKER visit the Vatican and gives him Chicago Beer brewed for the Pope It's named DA POPE BEER Only in Chicago 🤣 Photo next post

NEW: This is one hell of an opening paragraph from Jim Comey's attorneys in his motion to get the grand jury materials in the case against him.

It's really shocking that Trump's DOJ, because a grand jury in the James Comey case refused to agree to their bogus indictment, bypassed that grand jury and lied to the judge about the grand jury deciding on fake indictments. Beyond appalling. Such a corrupt administration.

This is nuts. Yesterday in the Comey hearing, prosecutors *repeatedly* confirmed that the full grand jury never saw or voted on the two-count indictment. Now they’re claiming the grand jury *did* vote on it.

Spineless speaker does it again

Crow: "It just tells us everything that we need to know that reminding people to obey the law, reminding people to obey the Constitution, is somehow criminal in Trumpworld and should be responded to with death threats. It's very, very telling."

Statement from Rep. Crockett on Threat at D.C. Office

If a reasonable person would know the order is illegal, you MUST refuse. Obedience is not absolute, duty to the Constitution is. Oath is to defend the Constitution not a person Yes. U.S. service members have a legal and moral obligation to disobey an illegal order. Not just the right. The DUTY.

Leavitt: Why aren't you talking about what these members of congress are doing to encourage violence…. They're literally saying to 1.3 million active duty service members not to follow lawful orders Reporter: Actually they said illegal orders.

Our kids are watching.

“What it’s gonna take to win is absolute turnout. And so I’m asking you all for the next two weeks, as you are able, to make this election your entire personality.” Sign up for a phonebank to help @aftynbehn.bsky.social flip a GOP district in Tennessee: mobilize.us/indivisible/...

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey. This isn’t controversial. A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

YOU. MUST. REFUSE. ILLEGAL. ORDERS.

Kelly: "I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the Space Shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said."

Meiselas: This guy's a con artist. He's a fraud. He's quite literally a criminal. A felon. He lies. He destroys people's lives. He's a rug puller. 'Look, $23 trillion! Dividend checks are right around the corner! I'm gonna make you so rich!' It is demented and it is manipulative and it is abusive.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Mark Kelly: "He's talked about sending troops into more cities, he's talked about invoking the Insurrection Act. You don't have to go too far back to his 1st administration when he went to his Sec Def & said, 'Can't we just shoot these protesters in the legs.' That is an example of an illegal order"

Do you really think a Department of Justice that lies to judges about grand jury indictments is going to be open and honest about the Epstein Files?

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) says someone showed up to her D.C. office today and made white supremacist threats. Capitol Police had to intervene. This was hours after Trump said Democrats in Congress should be executed. "When leaders promote hate, hate shows up."

Trump just issued a Violent Call to Hang elected dems on Truth Social. Their supposed “crime?” They made a video urging service members to uphold the law. THIS IS NOT NORMAL!

The world will rejoice when the pedophile in the WH is no longer among the living.

Just so we’re ALL clear: the President of the United States made death threats toward sitting Democratic members of Congress. But they’re always claiming Democrats are the dangerous ones, right? (1/2)

He’s proven—again—that there are no bounds to how low he’s willing to go. This is absolutely disgusting, and Americans deserve better than this cowardly, chaos-driven clown show. (2/2)

You Are An American 🇺🇸 Citizen, ACT LIKE IT! #FearHasNoPlace

The President is calling for Democratic members of Congress to be hanged. This is deplorable, un-American, & an open invitation to political violence. Servicemembers take their oath to the Constitution, not to any president. I stand with my colleagues who have honorably served this nation.

Very much looking forward to the end of the fossil fuel era. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/19/b...

Look, this man regrets his choice. It’s hitting him hard and he’s finally seeing the cost. Instead of us shouting FAFO, the question is why he made that choice in the first place and what it will take for people like him to choose leaders who actually fix this mess next time. We need every vote!

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution. In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

After 20 years in the Navy, Buzz Grambo thought he'd spend his retirement playing video games and watching baseball. Instead, he patrols the streets of Baltimore to protect his neighbors from ICE. He even upgraded his scooter to a Segway that reaches 26 mph to keep up with the agents. My latest:

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

In other words, he has lost cognitive ability to control impulsive utterance

I've said this many times, it's like all these people stopped any growth or development after about 13 or 14. They're all a bunch of mean middle-schoolers.

An important part of the job for any WH Press Secretary is to clean up remarks made by the president or offer explanation/context or apology when warranted. But Leavitt never does that. She always crafts a response that makes it even worse by adding her own toxic twist.

The stakes are too high to wait: we need to impeach Trump now. I’ll be speaking at the Remove the Regime rally in Washington, DC this Saturday. I hope to see you there! @flareusa.bsky.social @removalcoalition.bsky.social

ICE is a bunch of thugs, criminals and pedophiles. 😡 people.com/ice-employee...

Shameless Imagine a man that is so weak & insecure in his masculinity that he chooses to rape young children to prove to himself he’s the man. Now imagine the people that are so power hungry & depraved that they will cover up child rape to protect that weak man. Disgusting #Pinks #ProudBlue #OneV1

Poland will close its last Russian consulate in Gdańsk after railway sabotage. FM Sikorski will urge EU states to restrict movement of 2,000 Russian diplomats, saying up to 40% engage in activities incompatible with their status, hinting at intelligence work. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

We found that Donald Trump has granted clemency in at least a dozen criminal cases that originated during his first term. No president since Clinton has used clemency to erase his own appointees’ actions on such a scale. By @jeremykohler.bsky.social
