CNN: “Trump issued 1,500 pardons in his first month—compared to 212 for Obama over two terms, 189 for Bush over two terms… Has he possibly had enough time in the day to look long and hard at each? He is abusing the presidential pardon."

He’s not racist at all…

what the fucking fuck FUCK

If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.

Unavoidable conclusion: SCOTUS has put 1 man in America above the law & created a king. Not the first time a case has been decided wrong. The fix for democracy lies, as it did in Dred Scott, with fixing a broken decision. Hopefully this one won’t require a civil war. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

Mark Kelly: "My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head. Six people killed around her, a horrific thing. She spent six months in the hospital. We know what political violence is and we know what causes it too, The statements that Donald Trump made incites others."

Someone needs to set up a camera so we'll know when Pete Hegseth orders this plaque removed from West Point.

Christian Jimenez: I’m a US citizen. ICE: I don’t care. Sounds about right.

When America celebrates its 250th anniversary of independence on July 4, Harold Meyerson suggests going beyond the usual No Kings protests to paint Trump as the monarch he is: trib.al/Mtxqyr5

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge has dismissed the DOJ’s cases against FBI Director James Comey and New York AG Letitia James, ruling that the prosecutor Trump handpicked to charge them had been unlawfully serving since September.

Here's some very practical thinking about the whole whistle thing -- very well done:

Started, going Nebraska-Trump edition

Please start your weekend with the "Peace, Love, and Understanding" starter pack, because a little more humanity would go a long way. go.bsky.app/PUkxfuS #gratitude #FollowFriday

His followers certainly think he is putting out fires (and not creating any). Convincing them otherwise, despite evidence, is a hard problem.

🧵 U.S. wants Ukraine to sign a framework of the deal by next Thursday, threatening to cut intel and weapons. Few things: Weapons are bought by Europe. Intel is shared as part of a global network. What if EU dared to say - we SHALL NOT BUY from the US and we SHALL NOT share our intel with you?

Jeez. Trump reposted a call to execute six Democratic members of Congress, and it’s not on the front page of the NY Times, and this is the headline—no mention of hanging lawmakers.

Spineless speaker does it again

Our kids are watching.

BREAKING: Donald Trump is calling for the arrest, indictment, and imprisonment of lawmakers who reminded military leaders to follow their oaths, amplifying calls to "hang them." A very serious morning. Spread the word. I have the latest: open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

Trump: We are going to be selling Saudi Arabia some of the greatest military equipment ever built-planes and we are working on getting that approved very quickly. It's already approved. We have to go through a process, process will take—Elon knows process will take, would you say 24 hrs? I think so

NEW: Remember that story we broke a few months ago with @propublica.org @texastribune.org? We reported Texas Gov. Greg Abbott did not want to release his office's emails with #Elon #Musk. Well, we have an update. www.kut.org/politics/202... #txlege #FOIA #transparency #Texas

This is on the Fox site. www.foxnews.com/politics/fox...

Interviews and records show the White House intervened on behalf of accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate during a federal investigation. The incident is the latest in a string of matters where the Trump administration has inserted itself to help friends and target foes.

He thinks we’re all morons

This is disgusting.

The move follows through on Trump’s April proposal "to swiftly remove employees in policy-influencing roles for ... subversion of Presidential directives." trib.al/EYxiv2y “Translation: Trump can fire federal employees who point out that he’s broken the law,” wrote an ex-Homeland Security official.

TLDR ICE sucks and this country continues its racist ways. www.propublica.org/article/immi...

Mueller/history/ideas of privilege and warped justice have taught me to temper my expectations…nevertheless, some hopeful words (link to piece in first comment)?

Looks like someone told him "Hey, go ahead and vote yes. Trump opened a sham investigation so nothing will come out. You're safe."

Fuck this dude. Literally making excuses for murdering and dismembering a journalist in an embassy.

"We've always been on the same side of every issue," Trump says as he fawns over Saudi leader Mohammed bin Salman at the White House. The murder and dismemberment of journalist Jamal Khashoggi is one of the issues they were on the same side on.

Trump tells MBS, who was complicit in the murder of US-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi, it’s an “honor to be your friend” during a WH visit. www.nytimes.com/2021/02/26/u...

11th hour and Mikey is still running cover for child predators.

Imagine if Obama did this…

News of the White House's intervention on behalf of accused sex traffickers Andrew and Tristan Tate comes as Trump is under fire over his ties to notorious child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Q: I'm confused because the bill specifically says 'the AG may withhold or redact portions related to child sex abuse materials.' The survivors are comfortable with that. These things are actually in this bill. JOHNSON: They're not Q: It's up to the AG J: No it's not! We're not making this up

After trying for months to block a bill to release the Epstein files, Mike Johnson says he'll vote for the bill but signals that Republicans will stall it in the Senate to address "serious deficiencies." Trump can say he'd sign it because his congressional lackeys will keep it away from him. 🧵 1/2
