"Look, the President clearly has some kind of dementia" should be how Democrats begin every single comment to reporters these days.

“No one man can terrorize a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices.” -Edward R. Murrow

Reminder that we still don’t know what happened to the 1,000 immigrants who went missing from Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and attorneys can’t locate them. They’ve been disappeared. People are still being sent to that horrible place without any due process.

There it is

News item: Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff, said in November 2023 that a second tRump administration would order the Guard in sympathetic Republican-led states to Democrat-run states that refuse to cooperate with his drive for mass deportations. --Source PBS

"I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without...any purpose of evasion...So help me God." Oath? Naw. They're a bunch of lawless thugs.

Every question any reporter asks about the government shutdown should include, “Is it true the government is shutdown so Congress can’t vote on the release of the #EpsteinFiles?”

Every single thing they do is about funneling money to Trump and his sycophants

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

The 25th amendment needs to be invoked right this second

Oregon AG Dan Rayfield: "California, DC, Memphis, potentially Illinois, now Oregon - this normalization that you can use the US military in our cities. That is un-American & every place that it happens, you will see Democratic attorneys general standing up, drawing a line in the sand & saying, 'No'"

"It's absurd to think that … the government of the United States that [the people] pay for, that they vote for, is really in service of one man. ... He is using every arm of the government to create pleasure for himself … and also to seek vengeance upon his enemies."

Can we get some focus on the perfidy of Speaker Mike Johnson? So much of Trump’s excesses are made possible because Johnson has disabled the House as a check on the President. He has handed Trump his gavel symbolically and in reality. We need to focus on Trump’s enablers.

It’s gone so quickly from ‘boat people’ to all immigrants. So quickly from ‘I don’t mind if they come here legally and pay taxes’ to ‘actually it’s anyone foreign’. We are living in the ‘first they came for’ poem. All to give the population a scapegoat so the super rich can hoard yet more wealth.

You can be mad at Jim Comey for what he did to HRC in 2016 and also decry any potential indictment as bullshit. You can do both.

Will this be the moment that wakes people up?

GREAT Wednesday Morning!!! #SheShed

He stood in front of the world at the UN today, and every other word out of his mouth was a lie. I’ll say it again, we’ve not been here before. An American President who lies as he breathes. It’s a terrible place to be. Shame on the media & everyone who’s normalized his lying and/or doesn’t care.

This is just another attack on women using quackery. During pregnancy, Tylenol is one of the few safe meds you can take for pain, or headaches. A heroin soaked, brain worm idiot should not be deciding medical treatments period! I hope Tylenol sues the ass off of this admin.

Release the Epstein files. Release Friday's inflation report. Release the Tom Homan bribery tapes. Most transparent administration in history, my ass.

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.

I stand with PBS. I stand with NPR. I stand with Stephen Colbert. I stand with Jimmy Kimmel. I stand with the First Amendment. PERIOD.* *Also #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files

Colbert ties it all together with receipts: youtu.be/ZdGLJly6P7c?...

Stephen Colbert: “Tonight we’re all Jimmy Kimmel…. With an autocrat, you can’t give an inch. If ABC thinks that this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive, and clearly they've never read The Children's Book If You Give a Mouse A Kimmel.”

🚨WHOA!!! What a powerful moment. "I'm your host, Stephen Colbert, but tonight we are all Jimmy Kimmel."

GOP Rep. Thomas Massie told the House Judiciary Committee that the FBI has the names of at least 20 people tied to Jeffrey Epstein, including prominent figures in the music industry, finance, politics and banking.

You can never appease a tyrant.

It's not just Jimmie Kimmel. Per Newsweek & other outlets, at least 33 people, including pilots, teachers, professors, & government employees, have been fired, suspended, or placed on leave over posts about Kirk’s death. If it happens to you, fight back: see your lawyer, & post it here. #ProudBlue

REPOST if you stand with Jimmy Kimmel!

Pretty sure even Charlie Kirk wouldn't approve of Kimmel getting cancelled.

A few days after Brian Kilmeade suggested “involuntary lethal injection,” two separate mass shootings targeted homeless encampments in Minnesota, injuring at least a dozen people. Yet Jimmy Kimmel is indefinitely suspended.

I can’t tell you how many people who identify as conservatives told me I was being dramatic and overreacting to Trump winning the election in 2016. FYI: I no longer associate with anyone who supports Trump. I wasn’t overreacting and here we are in the midst of an authoritarian takeover by Trump.

former CDC official Dr. Houry: "I first learned that the secretary had changed our CDC covid vaccine guidance on an X social media post. CDC scientists have still not seen the scientific data or justification for this change. That is not gold standard science."

A bipartisan resolution calling for 🇺🇦’s stolen children to be returned prior to negotiations was introduced by @ChuckGrassley and @amyklobuchar, following pressure from 40+ ✝️ leaders calling on Pres Trump to return the kids. More > t.co/F1ETbA6kbU

“We cannot accept a world where children are abducted during wartime and used as a form of hostage-taking for negotiations. [Ukraine’s] children must be returned unconditionally before any peace deal is finalized.” - US Senator @amyklobuchar.com

They had warrants for only four people, yet had brought enough agents and vehicle support (as well as had detention space standing by) to arrest hundreds. This was no “misunderstanding” 🫩

Kroger will lay off ~1,000 employees. In December, it announced $7.5B in stock buybacks – which juice stock prices, enriching shareholders and boosting CEO pay. Just so happens that Kroger's last CEO was paid 457x its typical employee in 2024. Textbook corporate greed.

Democratic elected officials, here's some unsolicited advice. People are looking for leadership. Right now. This moment. Someone, anyone, take the konch and forcefully respond to JD Vance and Stephen Miller's promise to declare war against America. Speak up now. Press conference today.

Good Sunday Morning ✌🏽🩵 To everyone who works hard to share the truth ~ thank you 🩵 #SheShed

“That kind of spineless politics is what people are sick of. They need to get behind him and get behind him now.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/13/u...

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.

i just sent this email to @ezraklein.bsky.social

there is nothing more american than news of a political shooting being interrupted by news of a school shooting
