As you watch this announcement, remember how Trump responded to SCOTUS on tariffs by saying he had the right to totally destroy other countries. Same logic.

Schumer: "It was a bunch of lies. He says manufacturing jobs have gone way up. They're down 100k since he took office. He says job creation is up. Job creation is the lowest its been in a non-recession year since 2003. He's in a bubble."

Jeffries: "The cult-like behavior of my colleagues on the other side of the aisle is a complete and total abdication of their responsibility to conduct themselves like a separate and co-equal branch of government"

It's felt for months now that the fed govt is doing everything it can, including acts of violence, to make the Twin Cities unlivable. Vance's announcement shows that effort continues even if Trump's thugs aren't killing people in the street rn. I just don't see how this can go on for 3 more years.

"Here’s the most politically interesting thing that happened last night...: Trump said he does not need congressional approval to set new tariffs. This statement suggests he’s more interested in undermining the balance of powers than imposing arbitrary and ever-changing duties on...the world...."

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

Leilani Munter, y'all.

@laurajedeed.bsky.social did you perceive Trump decaying in real time? At end he sounded like he was going to end speech with “bury me in my boots, or ballroom”, idk.

It's all so ordinary. Just regular 2026 horseshit. Lines we've heard a thousand times. Lies, damned lies, fabrications, manipulations, no substance, no signficiant policy promises, just horseshit Not that this is surprising. Just true

As the guy who wrote the book on zoning abolition, I'd like to go on record as saying: if you can use zoning to stop the concentration camps, fucking go for it.

This guy gets it.

excited to hear tech companies will now be allowed to build their own power plants for their data centers. i am sure the makers of "the app that tells kids to kill themselves" will responsibly operate coal plants

“This message is brought to you tonight by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which is solely responsible for its content.”

Later this year, we’ll hit the 10th anniversary of Locker Room Talk, the absolute dumbest defense that has ever worked.

The desks of Harper Moyski and Fletcher Merkel - two students killed in the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School - sit empty in the Capitol this week as a reminder of the horror of gun violence. The majority of Minnesotans agree, it’s time to ban assault weapons.

I debated 20 far-far-far-right conservatives (racists? fascists?) on Jubilee's 'Surrounded.' Here are some of the highlights of them unable to answer my basic questions or rebut the simplest of points. Not sure whether to laugh or cry. Here's the full 'debate': www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S-W...

"The President Must Be Removed From Office" Zeteo is calling today for Donald Trump to be democratically removed from office, via impeachment or the 25th Amendment. The evidence, as laid out by Zeteo's @andrewperez.bsky.social in today's First Draft, suggests he is unfit. zeteo.com/p/time-for-t...

It used to be you could discuss the carb load of pussy with your BFF convicted child rapist. But the woke mob took all of that.

If you've ever read/studied the US Declaration of Independence, you'll immediately notice the middle of the document is a list of tyrannical acts of King George III. Now, 2.5 centuries later, the script is flipped, and many of these acts have been committed by Donald Trump.

Has to be an impersonator because "Chuck Schumer who can't cook a cheeseburger" is the funniest thing I've ever heard

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

@laurajedeed.bsky.social What would the Board Of Peace Of The Action say about this???

My update is I found an "auto-invite" toggle that appears only on the phone app - and it is OFF. lolsob

NEWS: The FBI interviewed an Epstein victim who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was underage not once — but at least FOUR times. But the document that shows those additional interviews appears to have been deleted from the DOJ website. substack.com/home/post/p-...

To be clear — not four alleged assaults. Four *interviews.* Three of those interviews were previously unknown and there is no record of them in the Epstein database.

This character would fit in perfectly in the Trump world as he aggregates many characteristics of Trump and his crooks. Never heard of him. Interesting read. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_...

still the funniest thing I’ve ever had an account banned on any platform for

I don't feel qualified to evaluate how well an opinion mirrors authentic originalism because I think originalism is already inauthentic. It's like asking me if THESE reiki crystals are REAL reiki crystals. Skip me with that bullshit and leave it for FedSoc's Chick-Fil-A bag lunches.

i've decided not to listen to the audio of a teacher reporting a kindergartender because frankly I don't want to become the person that that event would turn me into. but one thing I hope we are collectively coming to grips with is what it meant that we have lived among such people this whole time

Trashing supreme court as looking to protect other foreign countries not US. He's in free-association savaging mode of supreme court. Doesn't even mention or seem aware that taxing power is for Congress. "Their decision is incorrect, but it doesn't matter b/c we have other alternatives"

Trump completely trashing the majority of Supreme Court, as cowardly and political and harming the country's interest. "the good news is that there are " other methods and even stronger than IEEPA really crazy nasty psycho diatribe

“It is time to acknowledge what has become tragically obvious: the Trump administration is operating as a massive criminal enterprise.” This absolutely captures it. Instead of "Trump Administration," we should say "Trump Syndicate." #TrumpSyndicate

Kinda weird that the party that controls the House, the Senate, and the White House claims there's rampant voter fraud.

“Hanging that banner should put to rest any doubt that Donald Trump has hijacked the independence of the Justice Department. He — not the American people — is the only client DOJ’s current leadership serves." www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

We must stop every single proposed concentration camp. www.kjzz.org/the-show/202...

The American president is more insulated from accountability than a British royal. Our political system provides the elite with immunity. It has to change.

Ossoff on Cobert's show: "This whole Epstein saga has exposed the lie of the very core of Donald Trump's political project. It's been a lie since he came down the golden escalator. Which is that this guy cares about or ever wanted to anything to help working-class and middle-class Americans."

OSSOFF: We worked with people who smuggled the truth out of repressive societies with authoritarian governments. Places where TV hosts had to deal with official censorship. COLBERT: *takes notes* OSSOFF: More and more Donald Trump's America reminds me of those places and that should chill us all

Ossoff: "There are some folks who are doomscrolling in the fetal position. Every day there is a new outrage. It's easy I know to fear that maybe we could lose our republic. I think what John Lewis would tell us is it's up to us. We have the power to right the ship. Nobody is gonna do it for us."

Once again I'm asking Democrats to take their messaging cues from the sitting Democratic Senator who is the most vulnerable for re-election in 2026

If someone had told me ten years ago that in 2026, there could be evidence of the president raping and threatening to kill children, and he would *still* be allowed to stay in office, I would have politely asked them to put down the meth pipe.

Authoritarians cannot understand regular people because they themselves are cowards Fear motivates them, so they assume it motivates everyone. They can't imagine risking their lives for a stranger, for free It's why they've beat a public retreat in Minneapolis, and it's how we'll ultimately win

So....the Fourth Reich?
