So...anybody going to *enforce* the law? Bueller? Bueller?

WATCH Sen. Schiff on the Trump administration’s politicization of the DOJ and the 1000+ former DOJ officials who have joined together to decry a democracy-threatening abuse of power that must be opposed. Read their full statement: protdem.org/3ITOo0Y

Aaron, you're on fire today. 🔥🔥🔥

Perfect response!

Pritzker: "I think it's important to recognize that the Trump administration does not seem to respect any laws in the United States. They just do what they want to do and they'll keep doing it unless someone stops them. Here in Illinois we're stopping them."

I read that trump is spitting about one of the New York candidates, calling him Communist. How come his base is horrified by the word Communist (though they can't define it) but is clearly ok with the word Nazi?

Johnson: Miss Grijalva has not yet had a scheduled date because she was elected after the house was out of session, Gallego: You don't want her to be on the Epstein discharge. Johnson: You guys are experts at red herrings. Gallego: This is an excuse

Our government is shut down but nobody is paying attention because our president is an idiotic cunt who is sending troops to invade our cities for fraudulent reasons because he’s a pedophile.

Here's a candid shot of Mike on his way to Fox and Friends.

But WHO is going to ENFORCE IT when he commits treason? NOT a rhetorical question, I really need to have hope.

To be clear, the Judge scheduled a hearing for Thursday, saying she needed the time for the parties to provide her with more information before she made a decision. This is hardly a win for the Trump administration.

We used to call it "Banty Rooster" complex. 🐓

NEW: For the last several months, I have written and spoken regularly about the rise of authoritarianism in the United States. This is not something I ever envisioned for myself — and it is certainly not something my ancestors envisioned for their great grandchildren.

AOC: "Stephen Miller is a CLOWN. He looks like he's 4’10”. He looks like he's angry about the fact that he's 4’10”. He's taking that anger out at any other population possible. Like, LAUGH AT THEM. Laugh at them."

I have news for the vicious, lying scum, Stephen Miller. There is no such thing as LEGAL INSURRECTION. If it's LEGAL, it is NOT insurrection. It is NOT insurrection to rule or vote against your fuhrer when he breaks the law, no matter what phrase you coin. You know, like "alternative facts." Fafo.

There is no way under heaven and earth that he actually believes in God, except when he looks in the mirror. May He have mercy on trump's soul. I would not.

If he pardons her, I think even his base will lose their minds. It would be a really, really stupid move. Let's hope it backfires spectacularly.

Mike Johnson: “Russ Vought takes no pleasure in this.” Mike Lee: “Russ Vought has been dreaming about this since puberty.” Watch the whole episode here: www.youtube.com/live/PkEOK7J...

And RepubliKKKans and Chump Have The Audacity To Tell The Left to "Tone it Down"........

Actual authorities, or trump-sycophant- authorities?

This is like planting evidence and then making an arrest.

Greg abbott won't call you. He is a suck-up sycophant of trump. He'll just brag his head off to try & get trump's attention. Pitiful.

The #TrumpShutdown and ending ACA subsidies disproportionately hurts areas of the country represented by Republicans #HouseGOP. When your premiums are massively increased because they refuse to extend your subsidies, don’t blame the democrats. via @bloomberg.com #DV1 #ProudBlue

We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

Here's what costs will look like for constituents of Chip Roy (R-TX):

I can tell you why? Because the US President cannot use this tragedy for political gain. Besides, the US President and his corruption administration has classified Democrats as domestic terrorists and couldn’t care less! How pathetic!

It’s obvious that Republicans can never be given power again. They don’t fight for democracy they fight for their own personal wealth and power.

Thank God for him, and I hope he has private security on himself, his loved ones and, apparently, he needs protection on his house, too.

I keep having to remind myself that we no longer have a real FBI to investigate trump's and/or Kirk's wife's involvement. All we can see is that there is a lot that isn't right about this whole deal.

It scares me that this "delay" by Johnson to prevent swearing in a new Democrat is because they are stalling while they cook up something so evil that they hope they can again deflect attention. But they have to know it's got to be something *really, really* awful.

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data. Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.” As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

At a time when federal agents are sowing chaos in Chicago, the Trump administration is holding bipartisan funding hostage. It’s attempting to score political points but is instead hurting our economy and the hardworking people who rely on public transit to get to work or school.

SenatorWarnock just broke it down: health care is on the line. A Chatham County family once paid $559/month for coverage—now it’s $2,100 after GOP subsidy cuts. QUADRUPLE the cost just to stay insured. #TrumpsHealthCareShutdown

The parents of those kids who voted for you should be so proud. (Sacarsm)

Russ Vought is one of Trump's authoritarian architects, and he has no problem at all shutting down the government. “We want to pot people in trauma.” Like Stephen Miller, Russ Vought is ruthless, utterly evil, and utterly devoid of affection, exactly the qualities Trump needed and wanted….

Republicans would rather keep the government shut down than roll back their cuts that will kick 15 MILLION people off their health care.

Wanna bet she watched footage of Huckabee Sanders as her training ground?

Truer words were never spoken. 👍

“Trump repeatedly, and falsely, suggested Tuesday that no Republicans would be harmed in the GOP’s standoff with Democrats. Only Democrats would suffer, he claimed” Let him talk all he wants,we’re accustomed to suffering, the GOP Isn’t. #Pinks #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

We no longer have a real FBI to investigate, either.

I posted this one week after the election in 2024. Holds up.

NEWS: A top federal prosecutor in Virginia has informed colleagues the she is DECLINING to charge NY AG Letitia James, despite pressure from Trump himself to indict her on bogus charges. New via Carol Leonnig and Ken Dilanian of MSNBC. Link in reply.

The only reason they said no is because letting her off would raise the temperature on trump. Let's not pretend they want to uphold the rule of law. 🤷‍♀️

A @runforsomething.net race to keep an eye on: Sam Foster, a 24 year old community activist, running for mayor in Marietta, GA, against a 78 year old incumbent who's been holding the office for 15 years & vetoed a resolution on Juneteenth, among other things. www.mdjonline.com/opinion/arou...
