An unprecedented violation of our civic and Constitutional traditions. Calling every military leader in the world back to the U.S. to hear a wildly inappropriate partisan campaign speech followed by a fascist call to use the military against Americans.

17 people are dead from US strikes in the Caribbean this month and we still don't really know who they are and so far the president and VP have made jokes about scared fishermen.

Poll after poll shows corruption is THE issue voters care about. And Jeffries goes out of his way to praise Adams, whose public corruption charges were dropped after Trump’s DOJ unceremoniously shut the case down? Democrats have the winning hand right in front of them. Wild that they won’t play it.

I think the Trump admin assumed no one would try to find out who the people on the boats they blew up really were

coming back to this, what are we even doing with this funding bill negotiation or indeed any budget at all?

it is pretty funny that the crypto industry is getting everything they want and crypto ownership is expanding and they still claim to want new payment options but the one thing in crypto that is declining is the usage of crypto as currency to, like, pay for things it's nothing but speculation

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

We don’t talk enough about how racists and authoritarians are the ones who actually genuinely hate this country.

New from me: Russ Vought is using federal employees as hostages in federal shutdown negotiations, threatening mass firings if Dems do not accept Trump's terms. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court just allowed Vought to impose a de facto impoundment of foreign aid. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/shutdown-h...

That should be uncontroversial lol. If they nullify the Citizenship Clause, they've abdicated their position entirely

the evidence in favor of the traditional understand of the birthright citizenship clause is so overwhelming that a bunch of conservative legal hacks had to conjure a fake literature int existence to create the appearance of dispute. i expect the court to side with trump, of course.

Since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, HBCUs received terroristic threats. Black students have been expelled or forced to withdraw. Black professors and teachers have been fired and placed on leave. A Black firefighter was placed on leave. A Black journalist was fired thebarbedwire.com/2025/09/26/f...

Supreme Court rules 6-3 that congressional appropriations are optional: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Every day, Trump wakes up and thinks “what product should I make arbitrarily more expensive today?” Truck tariffs means drivers pay billions more for vehicles, companies/consumers pay more for shipping, & the benefits to truckmakers get outweighed by costs to other manufacturers

got some bad news for anyone who voted for Trump because he promised to bring down prices www.ft.com/content/dd6d...

Over 14,000 physicians currently practicing in the United States, concentrated in underserved Midwestern+Southern states, are currently working on H-1B visas. This is the high-skill visa program, lifeblood for critical sectors, that the US Administration is sledgehammering. doi.org/10.1007/s116...

Feel like a functional opposition party could have a field day with "we're gonna bail out another country because we like its right wing leader"

Seems bad for our society when you can’t make racist terrorists the villains

since it looks like Tom Homan's gonna get off scot-free for accepting $50,000* in a Cava bag from undercover FBI, I wrote about how the Supreme Court has made it easier and easier for people to order their alleged bribes to-go ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur... *so is he just gonna keep that or??

ffs

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

I assume most of the actual reporting pointed out that this is bullshit, but this is one of those cases where even repeating the claim in a chyron or headline is irresponsible, unless the headline itself makes clear that it's not true.

Among Democrats - "Have you heard of the Abundance agenda?" No: 88% Yes: 12% Echelon / Sept 22, 2025

DEUTSCHE: NVIDIA "is currently carrying the weight of US economic growth. The bad news is that in order for the tech cycle to continue contributing to GDP growth, capital investment needs to remain parabolic. This is highly unlikely.” @fortune.com fortune.com/2025/09/23/a...

Nothing says “land of the free” like armed agents of the state saying “show me your papers if you want your daughter back” bsky.app/profile/nbcb...

this exists it is called thinking

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.

genuinely believe that a large number of political, economic and media elites do not realize that nearly half the voting public did not vote for trump

"Would you say things in this country are heading in the..." Wrong direction: 75% (+13) Right direction: 24% (-13) AP-NORC / Sept 15, 2025 (% change with June 9, 2025)

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion. Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

The H1-B visa thing is, like everything else in the Trump administration, set up to carve up exceptions for friends and punish enemies. It’s the authoritarian thru-line that stitches everything together.

Andor would want you to cancel your Disney+ subscription. It's the least you can do for the Rebellion.

They want journalists to be regime toadies. We don't live in a free country anymore.

"More professors in the United States have been fired for controversial views in the past week than any other week in all of American history." www.insidehighered.com/opinion/colu...

This is an agent of the US federal government, armed for live-fire combat against a modern army, slamming a passive and nonviolent female candidate for the US Congress into asphalt. Then walking away without checking if she has injuries, with his identity concealed behind a black facemask.

Kimmel off the air is not cancel culture. It's state censorship. The FCC Chair abused merger approval authority to do it, and the president touted it saying no one should be allowed to make fun of him. Don't play into the BS that complaining students or social media posters are equivalent to govt.

Feels like every so often, I’m sleepy enough when I see a news item that my brain’s calibration hasn’t caught up and I’m like, “how is media pretending this ISN’T absolutely insane to be saying about the literal president of the United States?”

He couldn't save himself by firing professors. The cultural revolution marches on. You won't escape it by cowardice. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/18/u...

Took less than a day. Resist this un-American assault on freedom. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

cruel joke of history that it’s Jimmy Kimmel that has finally induced many Democrats to set aside policy wonkery and fight Trump’s authoritarian aspirations directly, but I’ll take it

FOX paid out over $1 billion in settlements for their lies about election fraud. The FCC has no problem with their broadcast licenses.

Just now, 11 state and city lawmakers were arrested by DHS police on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza after a hour of demanding access to the ICE lock up on the same floor. @thecity.nyc

“ABC and CBS are making a serious miscalculation. Their servility to Trump will not earn them peace, only greater pressure.” That’s the German professional association of journalists, @djv.de, calling on major US media to support their journalists instead of preemptively silencing them.

Straightforward effort to change military culture/personnel towards a specific political and partisan perspective. In doing so it would hack away at the norms that have maintained civil-military relations.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years. Pinochet was ousted with a referendum. And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists. Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

The Republican reaction to Kirk’s murder has been a campaign of state repression that ends with Trumpist toadies deciding what Americans are allowed to think, do and say. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.
