Remember the man by his words.

Until there is a general strike, which will be painful, I doubt they have any power with their words. Why do I say that? Because even the courts have no mechanism to enforce their decisions with the administration.

Project 2025 is a terrorist organization. Their goal is to destroy the United States of America. They and all their enablers should be dealt with accordingly. The best time to do it was ten years ago, the next best time is TODAY! #GOP #SCOTUS #Congress #POTUS #USA #America @romanpiso.bsky.social

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.

PAY ATTENTION.

I don't see anybody building one for you, pal.

This is a good interview with David Suzuki. And not just because he speaks well of PM Carney. I hate to say it but he is probably right. He also talks about setting up "citizen defence forces", something some of us have talked about here. But I have different ... 1/3 www.ipolitics.ca/2025/07/02/i...

Note to media: “Trump says” is not a story. He says A LOT. He lies a lot. Do some sifting, discerning, contextualizing. Otherwise it’s just stenography. And you’re embarrassing yourselves.

We have a heroin addict running our nation's Healthcare, a Ketamine addict deciding where all of our tax dollars go, a drunk leading our militarily,a puppy killer in charge of our nation's security and a speed freak in the Oval Office. What could possibly go wrong?

A masterful, definitive brief from @judgeluttig.bsky.social on every illegal & unconstitutional action undertaken by Trump in the first 100 days. And a sober truth about Trump’s intention to defy even SCOTUS. Print this one out. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

You fought for habeas corpus, put it in your constitution, and now you’re just gonna let a game show host take it away? You’re not losing your rights. You’re handing them over.

I am pleased to have this article, “The End of Rule of Law in America” in The Atlantic this morning. Thank you, Jeffrey Goldberg, @theatlantic.com, @washingtonweekpbs.social, @adriennelaf.bsky.social, @beccarosen.bsky.social

“It is these constitutional obstacles to a tyrannical president that have made America the greatest nation on Earth for almost 250 years, not the fallen America that Trump delusionally thinks he’s going to make great again tomorrow,” J. Michael Luttig writes:

This persistent split screen keeps freaking me out.

So it’s bad to be a p**sy, but it’s great to have ba*ls. Got it.

Here comes the arrests of journalists now.

Apparently not.

Casar: At the end of the day, this is about taking your hard-earned money and giving it to themselves—or funneling it to their friends. That’s all this is about.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

If you haven’t seen this, you need to! Trump is short-selling America—deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them. Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm. Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

Life goes on. Here and there.

Shades of Putin/Trump Copenhagen handshake?

"The independent Russian outlet Proekt estimated in 2024 that the scale of repression under the Putin regime had surpassed that of the Soviet leaders Nikita Khrushchev and Leonid Brezhnev, persecuting at least 116,000 people over the past six years alone." www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Remember that this is where his discussions with El Salvador began. The migrant detentions there are the dry run. He wants to ship U.S. prisoners to El Salvador.We cannot sleepwalk through this.

Hello? There’s a madman at the helm here.

Call these Senators—tell them to vote no: All begin (202) 224 then the 4 digits ⬇️ Cortez Masto 3542 Duckworth 2854 Durbin 2152 Fetterman (is a yes) 4254 Gillibrand 4451 Hassan 3324 King 5344 Klobuchar 3244 Peters 6221 Rosen 6244 Schatz 3934 Schumer (is a yes) 6542 Shaheen 2841 Share far and wide!

Indeed.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

I'm a hard NO on the Republican spending bill. On cloture. On all of it. When a wannabe dictator is trying to seize power, it must not be given to him. Not without a fight. open.substack.com/pub/schiffno...
