Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Mike Johnson has pretty much proven that HE is in the Epstein files. No one works this hard to protect some OTHER child rapist.

So…let me see if I have this right. The federal government is gonna shut down in 30hrs, and the party that controls the ENTIRE federal government is trying to blame the party that controls NONE of the federal government for the looming shutdown?

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

Mike Johnson, do you job! You partisan hack! Swear in Rep Adelita Grijalva now! @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

He's a table which is MUCH clearer.

Agree With Governor Newsom......

Why are people saying "this is not normal" over and over again, instead of "this is illegal" or "this is unconstitutional" or "this is treason?" Not normal sounds subjective, wishy-washy and neurotic. It communicates nothing of substance.

Feds march into downtown Chicago; top border agent says people are being arrested based on ‘how they look’

My law firm is currently litigating 55 voting and election cases in 25 states. I expect that we will add another 5-6 this week. Please pay attention to what is happening to see and fair elections and democracy in court!

Bartiromo: "The UN is promising a thorough investigation after President Trump said there was 'triple sabotage.' Of course he's referring to the escalator which stopped as soon as he and the First Lady stepped on. She was incredibly unfazed. She just kept walking up the steps. No problem for her."

The amount of air time they are willing to spend on this "story" is just bonkers.

Brutal.

🚨This. Is. Madness. Do not normalize seeing heavily armed federal forces in the streets of Chicago (or anywhere). Posted on IG a few minutes ago. 1/2

Another horrific shooting at a church right after we lost the children in Minnesota. A place of worship should be a refuge, not a site of violence and fear. My heart is with the victims, their families, and all those impacted. We must end this cycle of senseless gun violence.

“The bravery and determination of ordinary Moldovans cannot be overstated. Putin has suffered a bad defeat. We do know that time and again, even when threatened, bribed and bullied, Europeans affirm their desire to be in Europe, not in the Russkiy Mir.” open.substack.com/pub/nickcohe...

1. The $20 billion taxpayer-funded rescue package for Argentina, announced last week by the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, delivers an enormous windfall to hedge fund billionaire Rob Citrone. Citrone has a longstanding personal and professional relationship with Bessent.

They ran thinkpieces about Biden’s gait and his sneakers. Now Trump’s dragging his leg, covered in IV bruises, and waddling around with ankles that look ready to burst—and not a single word from the media. The double standard is pathetic.

I really do hope the phrase “Kavanaugh Stop” or “Kavanaugh Encounter” sticks.

As a US Atty, I prosecuted and oversaw police excessive force cases. We took them seriously because they were serious abuses of power. What we're seeing now is the outbreak of an epidemic & instead of being condemned by fed'l law enforcement leaders, it seems to be tolerated if not encouraged.

“Is it that the Chief Justice doesn’t accept that the Court is losing credibility on a daily basis; that he thinks the Court doesn’t need that credibility in order to fulfill its intended role in our constitutional system; or that he doesn’t care?” Me on John Roberts as his Court turns 20 today:

Heather @hcrichardson.bsky.social says this video is fake & is trying to get it removed. Don't fall for it!

EXCLUSIVE: The number of people charged with breaking federal drug laws dropped to the lowest level in decades this year after the Trump administration ordered enforcement agencies to focus on deporting immigrants, a @reuters.com review of court dockets found. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

wrote about Comey, arguably the first capitulator in advance. trying to palliate trump led to the destruction of basically everything he was trying to preserve. it feels like we should learn from that. www.publicnotice.co/p/comey-indi...

The crowd was already wearing white shirts. Sad that they do these stunts.

Daily Dose of Truth and Facts Lara Trump's fake AI Medbed video is removed from Trump's timeline as Trump touts the gaudy gold Oval Office remodel. Federal funding for the government runs out on September 30.

If Trump actually believed he was popular as he always says he is, he would not be trying to rig next year's election. But he and Republicans know that waging war against the American people is not popular and are trying to avoid democratic accountability. apnews.com/article/redi...

Presidents get too much credit when the American economy is strong & too much blame when it isn’t. But in the case of farmers who can’t sell crops, Trump clearly gets 100% of the blame. Rare when you can point to economic disaster in a sector directly attributable to a president.

He couldn’t do much worse.

Completely missed this. So did much of the lame-ass media. US added to Human Rights Watchlist due to sustained attacks on civil liberties. And the fucker thinks he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. 😡😡😡 time.com/7306493/us-h...

"Because of changes that are starting to roll out from Trump's 'big, beautiful' bill... about 2.4 million people could lose access to the food stamps per month... "Millions more will see their monthly benefit amounts shrink because of changes mandated by the law... www.cbsnews.com/news/food-st...

The cognitive dissonance here is truly incredible.

This is demonstrably pathetic and a sign of true weakness. The Feds lack the numbers to do what they want to do. They can hurt, yes, but not at the authoritarian scale that (de facto President) Miller desires. So they go for the media-bait illusions of power. Like this. Profoundly weak flex.

Misogynistic male ‘leaders’ in politics and on social media who are given an infinite sense of entitlement without a shred of accountability are certainly galvanising my feminism at the moment…Just saying….

Wounded Knee was a massacre of innocent people, including women and children. It was one of many atrocities committed by the United States against Native Americans. The heroes were those who fought against the US military. They deserve our honors. Not those who used Hotchkiss guns against children

🚨BREAKING: Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe (R) signed House Bill 1 into law Sunday, approving a Trump-ordered gerrymander made to guarantee Republicans a 7-1 advantage in the state’s U.S. House delegation. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

McMorrow: Meanwhile, farmers are being told, “You’ll be okay because we’re going to bail you out.” Having pennies put back in your pocket while Donald Trump is building ballrooms or filling the Oval Office with gold décor from Home Depot just feels insulting. It is beyond insulting.
