It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement? The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy. At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

I rang the bell two years ago today. I appreciate every day now. I love to wake up to my doggie beside me. I love to spend time in the summer planting and watching my flowers and garden grow. I love to spend time with friends and family. Every day matters. #thankful #cancersucks

Employees say their out-of-office messages were changed without their consent to include language blaming Democrats for the shutdown.

Harmeet Dhillon (DOJ) publicly targeted this judge on Twitter a couple weeks ago.

“We’re suing Donald Trump. His deployment of the California National Guard to Oregon isn’t about crime. It’s about power ... It’s appalling. It’s un-American. And it must stop.” open.substack.com/pub/dworkin/...

Why would he stop it. He is responsible

“Outside the Ganesh Temple, [70 year old] Deepak Mehta said he was excited for Mamdani to become mayor due to his promise to freeze the rent. ‘I will vote for Mamdani because his policies will stop my landlord from causing problems for me,’ he said.” www.newindiaabroad.com/english/news...

The Democratic Party needs to get younger, feistier, smarter at messaging and more in touch with the electorate, both at the state and federal levels. Democratic voters need to get more discerning about who they choose to fight against the rising tide of oligarchic fascism. 1/6

Dem leaders are just not up to the job. I understand healthcare is vital, but if we dont have a democracy we won't have to worry about Healthcare. Why are dem leaders not in the streets with protesters???????

If you’ve never heard of Heather Booth, you will know who she is very soon because I got to interview her, and if you are apathetic or think that protesting doesn’t matter or think that elections don’t matter you will not believe that anymore after watching this interview. 1/2

It's increasingly clear that the president lives in a constructed bubble of unreality designed by aides who are manipulating him in order to take control of US policy. Seems like an important story - wish media would cover it.

We do not deploy American forces against Americans in our own cities. Our military is not trained for domestic law enforcement. It’s illegal and un-American.

Solutions with no questions.

Even Marjorie Taylor Greene admitted the GOP could end the shutdown anytime they wanted, they control all the branches of government. Broken clock’s right twice a day.

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism. I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

US Breaks New Measles Record, Surpassing 1,500 Cases – The Most In 33 Years

I see a lot of Democratic governors talking. I see NONE of them enforcing the laws of their states. You have masked criminals in your state, breaking your laws and all you do is talk. No really. You’re useless as tits on a bull. Your citizens are being terrorized and all you do is talk. 🤷‍♂️

NEVER FORGET: Any U.S. Congress or state & local Government member NOT speaking out AGAINST these CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY by ICE & their co-conspirators is JUST as COMPLICIT. YOU WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE BY THE PEOPLE!

Thank God for Dogs

"Fuck ICE" is a patriotic sentiment. Perhaps the most patriotic in this moment.

📌Trump's ugly, anti-American Mussolini act at Quantico Tuesday should have ended it for this sickening man. You should never get a second chance at openly rallying our military against the citizens they are supposed to defend and serve. Just incredible how much this treason is being minimized.

The generals weren’t the only ones who gave Kegsbreath a bad review.

FACT FOCUS: Democrats did not shut down the government to give health care to illegal immigrants.

Many happy returns to revered and best-selling #author #AnneRice, born this day in 1941 who gave the world #TheVampireChronicles beginning with the iconic #InterviewWithTheVampire. She sadly passed away in 2021.

George Carlin would never have taken blood money to perform comedy for a Saudi Arabian tyrant.

When a president sends troops into American cities to “restore order,” what he’s really doing is testing obedience. Portland and Chicago aren’t war zones…they’re warning shots. Authoritarians don’t announce takeovers. They practice them. One city at a time. However, each practice destroys families.

Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life? #TwentyfiveFortyseven

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans. Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies. Folks, I think America First might be a scam.
