100% of everything that's awful in this country, all the shit that's happening, everything that is wrong, is all on Republicans. Period. Full stop. 100%. ALL of it. And yet half of you out here yelling at Democrats. JFC. Go yell at Republicans. AND THEIR VOTERS. The GOP needs to be destroyed.

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers. I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

Indivisible leaders are begging to go on offensive: Consistently call out Trump’s lack of mental fitness and demand Dem leaders all over country call for articles or 25th. Any speech on affordability myst follow with Epstein, Epstein, Epstein. And Pink should be the color of Nzk3. 🩵💙🩵

The Greenland nonsense should prompt Europe to use the nuclear option: they should threaten to stop honoring U.S. patents and copyrights. That would quickly educate Trump backers like Larry Ellison and Mark Zuckerberg cepr.net/publications...

Fukuyama emphasizes, correctly imho, that Trump is singularly a bully and needs to be put in his place. Europe should escalate, call his bluff, and meaningfully threaten to shame him publicly. Drag it out and make him want to run away from it. Anything other than hostility is wasted on this beast.

Recently I've been spending some time with pro-democracy leaders from other countries organizing against national strongmen. Their stories of organizing against authoritarians are eerily familiar. Among the many clear takeaways: stand up to bullies and go on offense because defense doesn’t win.

Jfc can @housedemocrats.bsky.social find a few republicans to defect and impeach this mofo already?

@musicologyduck.bsky.social's viral bus thread is now BlueSky lore. The thread will resurrect every 18 months or so.

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Are The Epstein Files In Greenland? Trump's fantasy of takeover heats up! By @marciej.bsky.social www.wonkette.com/p/are-the-ep...

Paul's back and he nails it here

An order to our military members to invade our ally Greenland, without congressional authorization, and with no self-defense basis, would be “manifestly unlawful” under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. They must disobey it.

Shout out to these fine folks in Charlottesville #cville #abolishICE

A massive 10-foot-tall Jeffrey Epstein card has emerged across from the Capitol. The letter that inspired the statue reads: “We have certain things in common, Jeffrey. A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday, and may every day be another wonderful secret.” www.wivb.com/news/nationa...

If we need a specific, concrete goal for protest, it should be "impeach and replace." Enough is enough. It will take only a few republicans to put country over party, switch sides, and end this mess. The VP, Miller, and Vought have to go, too. Impeachment is the one thing that can stop this.

This is pretty messed up. Trump. Has. Dementia. #25thAmendment

All of a sudden... The Epstein files are 2nd, 4th, 10th page news.. They cannot stop making crisis upon crisis, and meanwhile Congress watches AMERICANS pay the price for his fkning around and sending in masked militia. If I was YOU Congress... Then I would stop ICE RIGHT FKN NOW, Americans see u

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

A joke for the history buffs.

An existing treaty offers full U.S. military access to the island, so why go to war against NATO member Denmark?

A woman left a comment on Facebook criticizing the Mayor of Miami Beach,. The Mayor of Miami Beach then sent the cops to her home.

It’s really too bad that Trump’s cabinet are all spineless worms or equally crazy because “the President has gone insane and is going to destroy the transatlantic alliance because they didn’t give him a Nobel Peace Prize” is kind of exactly the thing we have a 25th Amendment for

i think this MLK day the thing to focus on is the strategic focus and tactical brilliance of the civil rights movement and the way it was laser focused on a set of achievable goals

Mocking "it's only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago" is maybe a can of worms that a US president should hesitate to open

there is no nonpartisan solution to a partisan attack on our democracy and there is absolutely no *apolitical* solution to a partisan attack on our democracy

Everyone teaching IR and American right now.

The United States is the unrivaled leader of the wealthiest and most powerful alliance of countries the world has ever seen. And it is the process of throwing that all away because of the irrational whims of a cranky old man. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

The inadequacy of Dem leadership is distressing enough, but their inability to make a public villain out of Stephen Miller is downright flabbergasting.

The ICE agents literally are accessories to murder.

Pollster: 58% of Americans say Trump's second term has been a failure. A year into term number two, Trump's numbers look worse than any other president. Trump is even worse than George W. Bush after Katrina and a long period in the Iraq War. This is really, really bad.

The EU-Mercosur deal sends a strong message. It says: Welcome to the world’s biggest market. The largest free trade area on the planet. This is the power of partnership and openness. → link.europa.eu/3nqkNk

When you ask "Who benefits?" the answer lately is never the US.

“America prevailed in the cold war because it insisted on not simply being powerful…It made people imagine that the victory of the US was their own victory…without America standing for freedom, or at least pretending to do so, what’s the point of being pro-American?” www.ft.com/content/658e...

a cigar is like if a blunt were made completely of foreskin and you had to circumcise it first

“ICE agents, get out now because historically, this ends with you hanging from a lamppost and your body paraded through the streets.” - the …we rate dogs guy

I want to be Oakley.

So, if I'm following all this correctly, a bunch of internet shitposters who spent years screaming "don't tread on me" and warning about federal agents stomping out people's rights... have been hired as ICE agents to go around breaking into people's homes, kidnapping & shooting them

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities This is exactly the opposite. Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

Joe is absolutely right of course. MS-Now inexplicably carried Dump live "delivering" a lie-filled "economic" "speech" with absolutely ZERO news value @governorwalz.mn.gov is in the trenches defending Minnesotans. bsky.app/profile/tvmo...

Also keep in mind that provocateurs are a thing. That person publicly calling for violence? They're either crazy or a federal agent. It is not helpful to listen to them regardless. I found @laurajedeed.bsky.social's piece on this quite useful: www.firewalledmedia.com/p/cointelpro...
