Investigate and prosecute political opponents, sell pardons to your rich friends so they can commit crimes with impunity. Authoritarianism isn’t coming, it’s here, whether people realize it or not.

I genuinely don't understood how America took the emoluments clause -- the common-sense bar on a president using his powers to line his own pockets, a law children can understand -- and just said, nah, that doesn't apply for our Very Special Boy.

ICE isn’t making rare mistakes. This is the point. When an agency can grab people first and sort out rights later, if they bother at all, everyone is at risk. Citizen or not.

Not enjoying this particular, “Everything is shit and getting worse and no one in power seems to be doing anything about it” news cycle.

NEW: Jonathan Ross, the ICE thug who murdered Renee Good, was NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL according to police reports. He was taken to the Federal Building. He was NOT INJURED. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Trump is a cash-for-pardon addict.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

US aid to Ukraine since Feb 2022 totals $128 billion, mostly older weapons, not cash. The crypto industry is seeking a bailout of $100 billion from the US Treasury. That is cash. Remember that when crypto CEOs accuse anyone else of "grifting." www.cfr.org/article/how-...

“The Trumpists are no longer in their majesty. They control the executive, the Parliament, the Supreme Court and social networks. But in American history, the freedom fighters have always prevailed. They are beginning to raise their heads.” — Claude Malhuret, to the French Senate (March 4, 2025).

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) sued the Trump administration to release over $3 billion of federal funding allocated to his state’s agencies. @marcelias.bsky.social explains:
