55% want him Impeached, including 21% of Republicans too.....

“..challenges are becoming more coordinated and politically driven: 92% came from pressure groups, decision-makers or government officials, compared with 72% in 2024. By contrast, 2.7% were attributed to parents and 1.4% to individual library users.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Thanks to Trump, gas prices have skyrocketed. His war has already cost you an extra $200 at the pump in less than two months. That’s not to mention food, travel, and everything else going up because of his illegal, reckless, stupid war. This madness needs to stop.

🚨 Virginia has APPROVED the amendment for congressional redistricting, @nbcnews.com projects. A victory for Democrats that will help them gain several House seats in the 2026 midterms.

One of my favorites for sure!

Does DTF ST. LOUIS have anything new to say about the stir-crazy horniness of middle-aged middle-class white people? Maybe. But the *way* DTF ST. LOUIS says what it has to say is pretty special. You should watch this show — I wrote about why for @newrepublic.com newrepublic.com/article/2091...

Journalists planning to honor Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner have a choice: A. Party with the dictator, wear fancy clothes and network to boost their careers. B. Stand up for democracy by staying home. They’re going to choose A. It looks terrible now. It will look worse to history.

This is a horror.

I was ready a few years ago. 😉 open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

@pjmaciak.bsky.social I just finished reading your review of DTF St. Louis for The New Republic. I was really impressed with your ability to explain such an emotionally complex and at times painfully honest show about loneliness. I hope Steven Conrad sees it!

Interesting @markjacob.bsky.social point here: Why not more stand-alone stories with heds like "Trump Is Dismantling Democracy"? "Such a headline would be easy to support with facts that the NYT and other major media report in isolation every day. They’re simply afraid to hit the total button."

Yeah, I don’t have one either. The only dream adventure I’ve had since childhood is to travel to Egypt to see the pyramids. There seems to be a vanishingly small chance of that happening though. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Adorable!

There's no call for how invested I got in this.

Tear them down or blow them up! It will be fun! youtube.com/shorts/T7T9a...

I’m aware that both parties have employed gerrymandering. However, in modern politics, the Republicans came up with a strategy to systematically gain control in states for redistricting. Specifically to have control with fewer votes. REDMAP in 2010. Read it… www.fairdistrictspa.com/uploads/gene...

The lethal Beakspear appears to go on forever since it does, it is nearly 20cm long! (Compare with the great blue's at 15cm, the Grey's at 13cm) It's large! Around 115 cm (45") tall, though still only 2.6 kg (5.7lb) 1/2 🧵

A federal judge in Illinois today ruled that the Trump administration improperly coerced Facebook and Apple to remove ICE-tracking apps in violation of the First Amendment. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If you’re stumped by the stock surge amid ongoing U.S. disasters, remember that the market doesn’t care how many people die in wars or are shot by masked federal agents. The market is measuring whether more people think they’ll make money from the disasters than think they’ll lose money from them.

Yes, they did! I agree, the “broader left” needs to collaborate with others on solutions and action plans to protect voting rights here and abroad. youtube.com/watch?v=oRHQ...

The 2nd Annual symposium of the 14th Amendment Center for Law & Democracy was an awesome daylong commitment to undertake the work of "refounding" democracy in this country. WATCH all of the panels at this link: youtube.com/playlist? list=PLukLOeQAAH4fDnhek748P52xsjJhS- BYc&si=7ViNU2A0Px88e0yr.

No hearing, no vote on Kevin Warsh to be Donald Trump’s sock puppet on the Fed.

Over 200 House Republicans just voted to continue Trump’s war in Iran. If you’re still wondering which party is anti-war, this should clear it up. Spoiler alert it’s NOT the GOP.

TRUMP, throwing insults at Pope Leo: “weak on crime” “terrible for foreign policy” “catering to the Radical Left” “owes his position to me” “sit down and mind your own business” POPE LEO, unbothered: “We are called to love.”

The murder spree continues. The death toll is now up to 178.

MacFarlane: Are we to pretend we didn’t watch all that on television on January 6th? Did we not all see what happened at the Capitol? These vacating of convictions, these pardons, are communicating to the American people: do not believe your lying eyes

Trump isn’t going to stop murdering people until we stop Trump.

Here are the 7 senate democrats who voted to continue sending bombs to Netanyahu. Richard Blumenthal (CT) Chris Coons (DE) Catherine Cortez Masto (NV) John Fetterman (PA) Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) Jackie Rosen (NV) Chuck Schumer (NY)

"At least 88 of the largest corporations in America paid no federal corporate income taxes in their most recent fiscal year despite enjoying substantial pretax profits in the U.S." Cool. Cool cool cool.

HC Richardson reminds us of the cycle of wealthy wishing to run things more for their own benefit than that of the country & that there is a cycle, too, of rebuilding democracy. "To return to higher standards we must abandon the false prophets and seek new leaders of our own choosing."~FDR #RESIST
