Years later we are still learning of new details from the day. Narratives form, stories change. But our photographs & the video from that day are a constant that do not change and will always tell the truth.

Today, it’s not enough to look back at January 6, 2021. We need to be ready for January 6, 2029. mikesacksforcongress.com

One thing you should know and forever remember about January 6 is that it’s the birthdate of abolitionist Charles Sumner, a champion of pro-Black equality and forefather of the 14th Amendment, which gave us equal protection of the laws and forever barred insurrectionists from public office.

Here’s SCOWY’s opinion: documents.courts.state.wy.us/Opinions/S-2...

We haven’t forgotten what you did 5 years ago, or about the 1500 violent criminals Trump pardoned. Being a Patriot means respecting the Constitution when you win AND when you lose.

This is why I’m pushing for a state escrow account that holds federal funds before sending them on to Washington. If Trump wants to steal our tax dollars that were legally appropriated by Congress, then we should just be paying ourselves.

“Minnesota, New York, California, Illinois and Colorado will be cut off from around $7 billion in funding for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, which provides cash assistance to households with children, according to two people familiar with the matter.” Monstrously cruel.

Obscene

Almost exactly a year ago…

McConnell is more to blame for our present moment than anyone else.

Rep Adam Smith, highest ranking Dem on Armed Services Committee: The consultants keep telling me to talk about kitchen-table issues, but the rule of law is being utterly destroyed in America by Donald Trump.

Raw Power

“Dems crippling, then overthrowing, then extinguishing MAGA” is the way. Let’s vanquish the fascists. mikesacksforcongress.com

Law review note idea: Third Amendment jawboning?

As a dad of a Gen Alpha kid I’m generally opposed to most of their slang but “crash out” is a spot-on term that deserves to stick around

Bingo, and all tied up in a bow with Bondi’s adopting Barr’s pretextual indictment to pretend as though the rule of law still exists for these people

Zombie Reaganism

Team America 2 is gonna be wild

It’s all a cynical game to these people. They hope these Nixon-Reagan-Bush talismans of “crime,” “drugs,” and “terrorism” have enough magic left to win in the court of public opinion, but they’re wrong. We see through their desperate, exhausted lies. We will win. And we will turn the page.

CA4 rejects facial challenge to fed law banning firearm possession by peope who’ve been involuntarily committed to a mental institution. Unanimous, all-Dem panel (Obama/Biden/Biden) says as-applied challenges could succeed if plaintiff proves not dangerous storage.courtlistener.com/pdf/2026/01/...

Whatever else you think you are getting, the last thirty years have proven that if you elect Republicans, you get: Tax cuts for the rich Regime change Massively increased debt And that's about it.

an “inherent power” to respond to an “imminent” attack is just a license for aggressive war on the president’s whim

Just last month: www.cnn.com/2025/12/03/a...

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

I mean given that he is constitutionally barred from re-election what exactly can you call this other than legalized bribery?

CA9, 2-1, says California’s ban on open carry in counties with more than 200,000 people violates the 2nd Amendment. Two Trump judges in majority. GWB judge in dissent. cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/op...

The latest Republican running for Colorado Governor labels Gov. Jared Polis and others as the "synagogue of Satan Jews" and has called for their execution by hanging. MAGA podcaster Joe Oltmann recently said "Violence is probably the only solution."

Reactionary Minoritarian Juristocracy

This is the world Justice Kavanaugh sanctioned in his foolish & unnecessary concurring opinion to the Court’s order in Noem v Vasquez Perdomo. His hopes of cleaning up that blunder with a plaintive footnote in last week’s concurring opinion in Trump v. Illinois, demonstrates his staggering naïveté.

Chicago resisted. Protests came with a price. Bruises from pepper balls and fits of sickness from the tear gas. But also the shattering of illusions and loss of faith that what they witnessed could not happen in America. It did and is happening in America www.chicagotribune.com/2025/12/28/c...

MAGA and DHS are melting down over Kilmar Ábrego García “making TikToks.” I went to look at the video they’re complaining about, and all he’s doing is lip sync to a Christian song in Spanish about trusting God amid trials and tribulations. www.foxnews.com/politics/dhs...

They’re totally that boorish drunk guy at the concert who spills his beer on you then when you say “dude you spilled your beer on me” tries and fails to punch you in the face with a wild swing that has the oaf losing his balance and falling on his face in the same puddle of beer he spilled on you

This was literally one of the concerns raised during the immunity case, and the majority hand waved it away.

This administration lied about the people it sent to an overseas torture prison. It lies about the people it’s deporting. It lies every day to gain political advantage. Not a chance in hell they won’t lie about huge swaths of people they suspect might vote for the other party.

“the president seems to be using the doj to hide his years of involvement with the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history” feels like a story worth reporting on

This hits so real. In fact, a few weeks ago I recorded a bunch of earnest videos saying almost word for word what @cameronkasky.bsky.social said here. I have been sitting on the videos bc they’re almost too earnest. Bottom line: if you want non-establishment candidates, you have to donate to us.

more confirmation that lurking clearly behind this idea of the “heritage american” is a straightforward contempt for the actual history and tradition of this country, such that vermeule has to hallucinate a framework to justify his desire to jettison the clear meaning of the 14th amendment

Howie reached out to me when I launched my campaign in April to grill me on policy, but I insisted on extracting all his rock stories and gushing to him about @crooksandliars.bsky.social’s central place in my mid-aughts political awakening. I am so lucky to have known him, even if just for 8 months.

He will lose and claim victory and refuse to open the electoral college envelopes and we all need to be prepared for that moment

Blame the Roberts Court
