I get this a lot: "Okay Mr. Bad News, so what can we do about it?" Here you go. PLEASE SIGN! Trump's crypto scam is moving into high gear. We have another episode coming out shortly on how he plans to loot the US Treasury. We only have a couple of weeks left before this becomes the law of the land.

I blame your Supreme Court, for the mess America is in. They pretty well handed a toddler a gun.

The Supreme Court isn’t solely at fault for Donald Trump’s behavior, but its rulings—particularly the July 2024 decision, have significantly expanded executive power and reduced legal accountability, enabling bolder actions by Trump and future presidents.

The Court’s conservative majority has since sided with Trump’s administration in over 20 emergency “shadow docket” cases during his second term , allowing policies like withholding foreign aid, mass deportations, and agency overhauls to proceed despite lower court blocks.

The Court’s decision eroded judicial checks on executive overreach, but Trump’s “out of control” actions also stem from his own disregard for norms, Republican congressional control, and a polarized political environment where accountability mechanisms like impeachment, failed.

Ultimately, the ( failed) Supreme Court’s decisions amplify risks to democracy by prioritizing separation-of-powers concerns over preventing abuse, but they don’t create Trump’s impulses—they shield them.

I believe you can blame the Supreme Court for the mess the USA is in. A failed Supreme Court equals a failed America. My opinion.

This is what Iger should have done in the first place—just refused to back down from Sinclair’s demands in the first place, and then hang the consequences around their neck and let them feel the blowback. Fuck Sinclair. Their public reckoning is long overdue anyway.

This is why ABC's reinstatement of Kimmel isn't enough for me (although it's a good start). They should also threaten to drop any affiliate that preempts the show. Sinclair's contract with ABC is up for renewal next year.

This isn't just old fashioned either, it's simply the physical reality of the world. You can send a million emails, and they all go into a big inbox and can be ignored. But imagine a thousand physical letters showing up. That's bags and bags of mail. Suddenly, you've created a memorable event.

One point I would add: When you write a letter to complain, don't do it electronically. Corporations do not care about those, at all. Write an actual letter, and send it in the mail, with a stamp. One physical letter is like a MILLION electronic comments. Getting physical mail FREAKS THEM OUT.

If the sponsors pull, the stations die, which leads to Sinclair going bankrupt.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

This is what autocrats say and do. Some threats he intends to carry out, others are just meant to intimidate to produce a change in behavior caused by fear. Every day we move closer to autocracy. Who will be fearless & fight, who will ignore it and hide, & who will bend the knee?

We stand with Gavin Newsom, JB Pritzker and every other American willing to stand up to fascism and take back our country.

Gavin Newsom is annoying all the right people right now. 🤭

“When CDC Director Susan Monarez refused to rubber-stamp unscientific, reckless directives and fire dedicated health experts, she chose protecting the public over serving a political agenda. For that, she has been targeted,” the attorneys wrote.

“It’s hard to know how this is all going to play out. But right now, everything appears very dark... I don’t see a turnaround at this point. We’re still in free fall as far as I’m concerned.” ~ @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/1967...

I feel like this could be our last Independence Day. I don’t feel much like celebrating this year. I love my country.

Freedom from kings. Freedom from fascism. Power to the people forever. ♥️ Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸

Even then they’ll kidnap you off of the streets if you dare have tattoos and not the right colour.

That one time I wish Carlin hadn't called it... But he did. I can't fault him for it because 20 years later, it's happening. The American Dream: You have to be asleep to believe it.

Senate Republicans barely got the votes on Tuesday to pass the “One Big, Beautiful Bill” Act—which could lead to roughly 17 million people losing their health insurance, cause millions more to have their food stamps yanked away, and cause energy prices to skyrocket.

@enemywithinyt.bsky.social I'd like to thank Josh for his support of Canada. It gives me Solace to know that Canada still has support from sane people in America. 👍 @enemywithinyt.bsky.social #𝓢𝓽𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓜𝓲𝓵𝓮𝓼𝓝𝓮𝓽 #America #EightySixFortySeven #Bluesky #Politics #Canadasky
