Trump’s speech was a low point in the history of American diplomacy. But worse. www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-un-ad...

The Republican party apparently thinks that making fun of people’s deaths is absolutely abhorrent, unless the people dying are your perceived political enemies.

As Jon Favreau put it: “The president is firing prosecutors who won’t help him get revenge on his political enemies by making up fake crimes.”

It may be a long time before the United States can look at itself in the mirror and see what it saw after World War II: the proverbial shining city on a hill, a model for other democratic nations. www.salon.com/2025/09/12/t...

Pay attention. Something dark might be coming. The murder of Charlie Kirk could have united Americans to confront political violence. Instead, Trump and his anti-democratic radicals look to be readying a campaign to destroy dissent. 1/ Here's what's happening.

The mortgage fraud claim against Lisa Cook is false, per documents obtained by Reuters. Bill Pulte's accusation, the sole pretext Trump used to fire her from the Fed, was that she claimed two homes as primary residence. These docs show she did not. www.reuters.com/world/us/fed...

Don't just read the headline. Take a moment to watch the video. It's short.

The US president trafficked & raped underage girls, the evidence is overwhelming, everyone knows it, and this country's elites & institutions are so broken, so insular, so decadent that we can't even bring ourselves to state it clearly, much less do anything about it. Contemptible & pathetic.

In the last week of the 1936 campaign, FDR reminded a massive crowd in Madison Square Garden that "organized money" was "unanimous in their hate for me--and I welcome their hatred!" And then the country rewarded him with a 523-8 landslide in the electoral college. This is, in fact, good politics.

what a humiliating way for don jr. to find out his dad sends birthday cards.

Most men who have been accused of rape by their wife agree with this sentiment.

Once Donald Trump gets the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law – what comes next?

Hard to say how this isn't willful murder at a population scale. Seniors with chronic respiratory conditions getting denied covid vaccines.

Lawyers for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who has been released, have been informed by ICE that he could now be subject to deportation to Uganda, and he's been told to report to ICE next week, a source confirms to me. A few points about this, because there will be a lot of bullshit about it. 1/

This is getting very bad: *FBI raids top Trump critic's home *Trump loyalist gins up "mortgage fraud" pretexts for DOJ probes of Schiff, Letitia James, Lisa Cook *Bannon says ICE will monitor 2026 voting *DHS memo vows LA operations "for years to come" New from me: newrepublic.com/article/1994...

i wrote about how trump is hurting the veterans with his actions at the va and today the va press secretary made it clear to us they didn't like what we wrote. please click and share this story so you can see the kind of thing the trump administration does not like www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

"The president is creating a diversion of a make believe, fake situation." The former vice chief of the National Guard Bureau, Retired Major General Randy Manner, is right: President Trump is abusing emergency powers for political gain.

Always fun remembering this guy played one of the most assholish newspaper reporters in history on TV but also wrote and directed one of the best newspaper movies ever

BREAKING: Emails given to Congress by DOJ whistleblower reveal new details about the Abrego Garcia fiasco. They show how Trump officials searched for ways to paint him as a dangerous criminal and gang "leader" and couldn't find any. But smears continued. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1977...

Have yet to hear much from Democrats say that the BBB will also fund a vast deportation gulag and give ICE thugs free rein. They should look at current polling showing that Americans hate what is happening already. Even the brocasters.

My buddy edited this flick! Looks wild.

film is starting to talk about these guys straightforwardly

The Bove allegations should be treated as something akin to Watergate, or Iran Contra. The administration was attempting to do something they *knew* was illegal (anticipating the courts saying as much), and then trying to COVER IT UP. Only here instead of it being run out of the WH or NSC, it’s DOJ

See this for what it is. An authoritarian regime and its secret police are targeting political enemies and marginalized people they have vilified and dehumanized. We're in it, folks. Deep, deep in it. Fascism. Stop dancing around it. Stop playing games. Give up all remaining denial. We're in it.

There a reason the protests are being covered differently from the Tea Party The Tea Party was a front for the wealth class that owns the media and were used to demonize necessary reform These protests were democratic and populist, which the wealth class and its media opposes Hope that helps

This continues to be the biggest story in the country: DOGE has already squandered half a trillion dollars in 6 weeks. Not billion. half a trillion, $500 billion talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/irs-p...

"[Musk] is trying to gut everything good in America for his own private profit. This is the culmination of what oligarchy is all about...the fusion and the capture of the billionaire class of our democracy." - @aoc.bsky.social with @fedworkersunited.bsky.social today #SaveOurServices

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment. One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.
