Has to be understood as a threat

Trump destroying Eleanor Roosevelt‘s legacy (the east wing) feels a little on the nose.

*screams*

when you get your two friend groups together and they all get along

Everything is retribution www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

It will be interesting to see people’s reactions to Arch being in an Ole Miss uniform next year

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

For anyone out there who is blaming the Democrats for the shutdown, I have a question for you. What about the other TWO shutdowns that began when Trump was President and Republicans controlled all of Congress?

"The president has already announced that if a judge does rule against him, he will invoke the Insurrection Act and then continue the military deployments. This is where we’ve been headed since January 6, 2021."

Just like supporting America and supporting Trump are NOT the same thing. A state and its people are not the same thing as its current political leadership.

RFK fired the CDC official (w/decades of experience) leading the measles outbreak response. It's been decades since we've had such a large outbreak. And just to ensure they they can spread the measles outbreak even farther, they also fired the leadership for the center focused on immunization.

Republicans should note. Governor Greg Abbott of Texas and Senator Mike Lee of Utah have endorsed Federal Occupation of States. These are both elected officials speaking on behalf of Texas and Utah. Valuable information! Please share! #Utah #Texas #FederalOccupation

Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.

Nobody cares and nothing will happen but this is classically, paradigmatically fascist language. Comparing opponents to vermin and pests is straight out of the textbook.

So, in other words, Trump and his party are lying about this. Just like they lie about almost everything else.

Video taken one hour ago outside the Portland ICE facility of the violent insurrectionists in question

Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.

In case you're no longer on X...

Reup

@atticus59914029.bsky.social with all of the craziness that is happening, just wanted to drop a note to congratulate your Gators on the win yesterday. It’s the little things that hopefully get us through these turbulent times that we spend a lot of time focusing on (rightfully so)

Jesus Christ. DHS has held this guy in the hospital handcuffed to a bed and under constant guard for over a MONTH without ANY warrant or even ANY steps taken towards putting him into the removal system!

Trump’s efforts to militarize ICE & send federalized Nat'l Guard troops onto American streets, firing government employees during the shutdown, it's all part of Project 2025, which he disavowed all knowledge of during the campaign because it was so unpopular. joycevance.substack.com/p/project-20...

The regime’s playbook: Launch militarized raids in America’s cities to provoke a reaction. Then claim the reaction is insurrection to justify even more authoritarian action. The regime is using state-sanctioned violence to create a crisis. There is no justification for violence by anyone.

NEWS: Judge Karin Immergut on Saturday issued a temporary restraining order blocking Trump and Hegseth’s effort to activate the National Guard in Oregon. Immergut, a Trump appointee, was reassigned the case after DOJ sought to recuse the first-assigned judge. www.lawdork.com/p/dojs-recus...

Remember when Trump directed the prosecution of a political target a few days ago? An act that would’ve ended any other presidency in a sane reality has completely moved out of the news cycle and his party is still 100% behind him. Crazy.

IMPORTANT PERSPECTIVE: What I have not seen anyone discussing is that Nexstar pulling Kimmel, forcing ABC’s hand, comes as Nexstar is leading the way for the industry on trying to get FCC approval for media consolidation. www.poynter.org/business-wor...

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov so, you gonna do something or just let democracy continue to slide?

He says it low, but he says it

Not a headline that can appear in an actual democracy. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

These are the same people who dismissed countless public and private studies that showed conclusively that right-wing violence was, by far, the most pressing threat in America. Now they're going to concoct something that purports to blame the left. Once again, it's all projection and bad faith.

Signs bearing President Trump’s name have gone up at major construction projects. They were financed by the 2021 bipartisan infrastructure law which he passionately opposed ahead of its passage.

This seems exceptionally unhinged, even for Trump.

Communist regimes: Own companies Control their central banks Use tariffs to insulate their economies Use armies, false charges, home raids & arrests to intimidate the opposition Idolize their leaders with posters & praise Sound familiar?

A big trouble with navigating this political moment is that, on the one hand, the Trump administration has clearly overthrown the constitutional order and we are no longer anything like a free republic, but on the other, it feels like the wheels are already coming off the administration.

"I" gave the Governor of Maryland money? I'm pretty sure those were taxpayer dollars. Your money. My money. Not King Trump's money.

It's worth reiterating that the administration has never wavered from the position that it sent Kilmar Abrego Garcia to an El Salvador prison by accident. Everything they've done since is calculated to obscure that and punish him for existing as an example of their own stupidity and callousness.

As Donald Trump attempts to create chaos that distracts from his problems, we’ll call it out for what it is. Trump and Republicans are trying to distract from the pain they’re causing — from tariffs raising the prices of goods to stripping away healthcare and food from millions.

@atticus59914029.bsky.social do we still have a Constitution?

Countries that now have travel warnings discouraging their citizens from traveling here: Australia Belgium Canada China Denmark Finland France Germany Ireland Netherlands New Zealand Portugal United Kingdom www.cntraveler.com/story/which-...

Another test for America’s businesses and where they stand. This has Chinese Communist Party vibes: The White House “created a scorecard that rates 553 companies and trade associations on how hard they worked to support and promote President Trump's” so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill.”

“A top cybersecurity official for the Israeli government was arrested in Nevada during an undercover operation targeting child sex predators…” Already released and back in Israel. www.mediaite.com/crime/israel...

@housedemocrats.bsky.social you guys gonna do anything?

There's no reasoning with this.

Donald Trump is older today than Joe Biden was at this exact point in his term four years ago today. www.mediaite.com/politics/tru...

Just going to reiterate that in 2016 Trump inherited the lowest murder rate of any president in 50 years. He set reality aside, gave his “American Carnage” inaugural address, and was then the first president in 30 years to leave office with a higher murder rate than when he started.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @kenmartin.bsky.social are you clowns actually going to do something to limit the damage that the Trump admin is doing or just sit on your hands?

just gonna leave this here

Someone forgot to take down this webpage: www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/v...

Trump wants us to forget his Epstein files cover-up so badly that he’s invading Washington D.C.
