When Trump is on the ash heap of history, his ballroom and Arc will follow.

The answer is yes. Just like Trump’s Azerbaijan hotel was a money laundering front for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

Day 333 day of #GeorgiaProtests, thousands of people marched Rustaveli Avenue, the regime made it illegal to protest on the road and have arrested dozens of democracy defenders through out the week. "To the end! To the victory!" #3E 🎥 Nini Gabritchidze/Civil.ge

Yes! Like yesterday!

Transcription services write “Shady Vance” for JD Vance. 🤪

Women across the US are facing criminal charges for miscarrying—this is what "fetal personhood" looks like.

That Trump got away with his mishandling (theft?) of classified documents is bad enough but that he then uses classified documents as an excuse to go after his opponents is just… no words. We live in the worst timeline.

I urge our nation to use this weekend's No Kings marches as a declaration of independence against the tyranny and lawlessness currently running this country. Use your voice. ACT PEACEFULLY. Protect yourself and your community. THERE ARE NO KINGS IN THE UNITED STATES.

@timmiller.bsky.social talked to a veteran who ICE wrongly detained and brutalized

Please share this massively!

Just a quick note. Anyone else notice that the audio AI transcription of many podcasts interprets the spoken possessive word “ICE’s” as “ISIS”? Did not know that AI does irony.

Why do so many powerful Republicans turn out to be pedophiles and child sex abusers? 🤨

In an ironic twist of fate, it is Trump that is exposing that our constitutional democratic systems don’t have any clothes on.

Our system of government has turned out to be a paper tiger.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson just signed an order making city property off-limits to ICE. As federal troops deploy to Chicago, this is a bold stand for accountability and human rights. No city should ever be turned into a battleground for political power.

"The enemy from within" is POTUS.

This photo of red troops from Texas invading Illinois over a fake emergency is raising some significant questions for those who watched the televised address Pete Kegstand gave to hundreds of generals, admirals and commanders recently, a speech that already lives in infamy as the "No Fatties Speech"

No bailouts for farmers! No way, no how. Rural America voted in this wretched person and they don’t get a waiver to the pain he is causing.

A MAGA AG dumping false oppo in an oversight hearing shows just how low they go. We usually expect Attorneys General to say true things. Seems like a reasonable expectation.

From Bondi’s nasty bitchy testimony to ICE thugs grabbing people having coffee on a peaceful street, the Trump Administration is nothing but one big middle finger to America.

By the way, we knew Jack Smith subpoenaed republican phone records a few years ago. www.politico.com/news/2023/09...

Based on their questions, I can only conclude that no Republican Senator on the Committee has been alive since Jan 20, 2025.

These hearings are useless. Administration officials should only appear under oath and be questioned by committee counsel. With few exceptions, the Senators are terrible at asking questions and keeping control of the process.

Sorry, but I fucking hate Republicans.

Bondi keeps saying she is not going to disclose legal advice she gives. What crap. Her client is us-the people of the United States. There is no privilege or confidentiality she can assert to refuse to answer what legal basis she used to justify using the military against drug smugglers. Bad.

Bondi-I didn’t like you before this hearing, but you are truly a despicable person.

Senator Whitehouse-please don’t let Bondi use her non-answer to attack you.

Bondi reminds me of the type of lawyers that come to trial not prepared and so just attack every question with wild accusations and play the victim. I hated those kinds of lawyers.

Oh good. So there is no gender discrimination, the dumbest male Senator (Kennedy) is allowed to say some stupid things.

Hey Graham. Your phone records were subpoenaed to determine if you were involved in planning the January 6 insurrection. Does that clarify it for you?

Ok. I get the Republican strategy now- this is not a hearing on what Bondi and Trump have done, it is to rehash the 2016 election and Trump’s old grievances.

Hey Grassley. Clinton is no longer president and hasn’t been for a long time.

Hey Bondi, what criteria did you use to cut grants that you are now having to go back and review? Not very efficient.

I think Bondi may be dumber than Barbie.

Listening to senate hearing with Pam Bondi. Grassley is just too stupid for words. Bondi is so smarmy she makes my skin crawl.

Vladimir Putin is waging a grey-zone campaign against Europe. He is trying to achieve three things, and he needs to fail at all of them

The Supreme Court is now nothing more than a perversion of justice.

Today proves that Republicans were serious about one promise: to cut taxes for the wealthy. All the rest was bullshit.

Kenneth Chesebro, the lawyer who helped orchestrate the fake elector scheme to overturn the 2020 election, has been permanently disbarred in New York.

Last night, Capitol Police arrested roughly 60 veterans and their family members outside the U.S. Capitol. The group had gathered to hold a peaceful sit-in on the Capitol steps, but police intentionally set up a barrier of bike racks to prevent them from demonstrating.

Houston Texas!

Ukraine’s Security Service claims to have struck more than 40 Russian bombers deep inside Russian territory, in what would be one of the largest attacks on Russian territory in the yearslong conflict.

Trump and the GOP are trying to eliminate post-Election Day grace periods for mail-in ballots, a practice currently in place in 16 states and D.C. This effort could disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of voters. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
