And Kristi Noem doesn't give a f*uk.

I just left the Venezuela briefing. It's worse than you thought. Oil company executives seem to know more about Trump's secret plan to "run" Venezuela than the American people. We need public Senate hearings NOW.

What was the lie, Fraulein Leavitt?

According to a new report, 33 of the January 6 rioters Trump pardoned on his first day in office have since been charged, arrested, or convicted of new crimes. Trump is happy to put criminals back on our streets so long as they are loyal to him.

Of course they did. It's what predators do, pick off the weakest in the pack, those least able to fight back.

This is piracy under the law of nations. And under section 1651 of title 18 of the United States Code, piracy under the law of nations is punishable by life imprisonment.

Don't let this Jan 6th point get lost: Jack Smith testified to Congress he had "proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election." In other words, he could prove in court that Trump attempted a coup.

Reformed January 6th participant (who refused a pardon): “You can't gaslight me. I was there. I saw the officers being pepper sprayed. I watched one of them fall down and hit his head and his back. So don't be telling me it wasn't violent.”

I don't often agree with Donald Trump. But this time he is absolutely, positively 💯 percent correct. Please help us make poor Donald's nightmare come true: secure.actblue.com/donate/loc_g...

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history. Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

And NO returns.

Trump told the oil companies about the Venezuela plan, but neglected to tell Congress. This invasion isn’t about protecting Americans, it’s military assistance for big oil and his billionaire friends.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

God can.

“It wasn’t an invasion”. Military forces crossed inside of territorial boundaries without prior agreement. Military forces attacked structures and killed people. Military forces exited helicopters on the sovereign soil of Venezuela. There is no definition where that is not an “invasion”.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social The invasion of Venezuela brings to mind the quandary of how a U.S. military person knows that the order they have been given to fire off a missile at a supposed enemy is a legal order. There has to be a process our soldiers follow, doesn't there? But what is it?

Today, President Trump said crime is down to "almost nothing after two and half weeks" of the Guard in New Orleans. The guard only arrived in New Orleans 5 days ago. 3 people have been shot and killed in the city since then. #lalege www.nola.com/news/crime_p... www.nola.com/news/crime_p...

REP. GOLDMAN: “Trump promised oil executives if they gave him $1 billion for his campaign, he’d do right by them. They gave about $500 million. This is a massive gift in violation of international law, essentially just co-opting an entire country's natural resources for the benefit of 🇺🇸 Companies.”

If Nicolás Maduro stands trial in the United States and gets convicted of 34 felonies, does that mean he’s qualified to be our next president now? Just checking what the standards are these days.

Republicans rushed tax cuts for the wealthy but delayed their cuts to Medicaid and food assistance. Why? So they don't kick in until after the midterms. Help spread the word.

Trump's net worth increased by $4 billion. All of the wealth was gained by manipulating his power as president. Nothing like this has ever happened before.

The US "banned 5 people from entering the country because it doesn’t like their speech. This ban, according to the State Dept, is necessary to protect free speech. If that sounds insane to you, congratulations on your reading comprehension." Good piece about something bad, by @mmasnick.bsky.social.
