this is the most pathetic-ass letter i have ever seen

When he said his secret group of billionaires was going to pay for most people said no thanks. When he asked for $1trillion dollars for his ballroom/Fuhrer bunker even Republicans said hold on. But wait, a Droneport with armed AI drones swarming over the White House -- sure sign me up!!!🥺

yes, this! “the ‘unitary executive’ is, quite simply, incompatible with a theory of checks and balances.”

BREAKING: we just won our Kennedy Center case! Both the renaming & the closure of the Kennedy Center are enjoined Kudos to our wonderful client @repbeatty.bsky.social & my colleagues @democracydefendersaction.org & Washington Litigation Group This is a 1-2 punch against Trump's corruption

(NYT) - A federal judge in Washington ruled on Friday that President Trump’s name was illegally added to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, writing that the law establishing the center made “crystal clear” that only Congress could change it. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/05...

1. Flip the Senate this year 2. Block all GOP SCOTUS nominations 3. Hold the Senate and elect a Dem POTUS in 2028 4. Kill the filibuster 5. Pass HR1 6. Pass 18 year term limits on SCOTUS 7. Fill the 5 new vacancies with liberal justices 8. Have nice things

Trump now says he will be blocking all ships from using the Strait of Hormuz until all ships are allowed to leave.

Dear Leader is at his 4D Chess again, racking up more war crimes and zero accountability.

Kid Rock is definitely in the chain of command now.

Trump: I used a mail in ballot. You know why? Because I'm President of the United States, I did a mail in ballot for Florida because I felt I should be here. Reporter: But you were in Palm Beach

Because the president of the United States is the dumbest motherfucker on the planet. It's just that simple.

We had a good run, America

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

The lies about Trump's approach to war and foreign policy were ubiquitous. Just a few.

“If Kamala wins, only death and destruction await because she is the candidate of endless wars. I am the candidate of peace. I am peace.” - Trump, 11/1/24 “I’m not going to start a war, I’m going to stop wars.” - Trump, 11/5/24

Hey just following up on this

Chief Justice Roberts: "The president asserts the extraordinary power to unilaterally impose tariffs of unlimited amount, duration, and scope. In light of the breadth, history, and constitutional context of that asserted authority, he must identify clear congressional authorization to exercise it."

Apparently Congress has not used the third type of contempt — inherent contempt— in almost 100 years. She is tailor made for this.

This movie MUST be made!

Didn’t Reagan say Not to Speak Ill of other Republicans? Guess that’s totally dead.

He's playing 4D Chess again...

The violent occupation of Minneapolis started with a vlog. I've wanted to find a framework to describe Nick Shirley & others like him: "Influencer" is too quaint. "Journalist" is obviously wrong. I landed on "slopagandist." Gift link (open in a web browser) www.theverge.com/news/869824/...

Preach girl, preach. As always, an incredibly insightful and important read from @miasato.bsky.social

I wrote this yesterday about the hero city of Minneapolis www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKOW...

Where have you gone Neil Young? Our nation turns it's lonely eyes to you.

More profiles in cowardice: Target, Best Buy, General Mills, Cargill and roughly four dozen other large MN companies issued a public letter calling for an “immediate de-escalation of tensions” in the state. Stops short of condemning the killings or who is responsible for them.

Every one of the factors that now convince him Trump is fascist was present in the first term (even if unsuccessful). Lots of folks who accurately described Trump as fascist were called unserious. I'ed much rather someone admit why they were wrong (left-punching, bias, etc.) than this. Gift link

Federal agents pinned a man to the ground in south Minneapolis and sprayed him with chemical irritants directly in the face. Minnesota Star Tribune photographer Rich Tsong-Taatarii did not witness the man put his hands on agents.

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

Just brilliant.

damn -- CNN put together a video of Kristi Noem claiming ICE officers are "highly trained and skilled" and "gifted" alongside to a clip of them beating someone nearly to death in Minneapolis

Remember in A Clockwork Orange when the government just hired the gangs to be the cops? I think we're at that point of the movie now.

Ted Cruz in 2016, "We're liable to wake up one morning and Donald Trump if he was President would have nuked Denmark" "That's not the temperament of a leader to keep this country safe"

What a pathetic response
