I’m not watching the news, but could someone tell me if anyone in the mainstream media is talking about the fact that the President of the United States and Pete Hegseth told America’s top military brass to ignore the rules of engagement and to target minorities in our cities as practice?

Institutional media has failed miserably.

More of this please

When will corporate news media discuss the fact that the president is totally demented and insane? Oh right, the pedophilic billionaire elite don’t want you to think about that.

He is all of us. 👇

When are all the terrified people who know this is wrong but think they can just wait out the next three years going to wake up and take their heads out of the sand?

BREAKING: A second Trump-appointed U.S. attorney has been disqualified after a federal judge ruled her appointment invalid. Sigal Chattah is out as US attorney in Nevada, just like Alina Habba in NJ: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEW: Sen. Tammy Duckworth is calling for Pete Hegseth to resign. "If this PR stunt proved anything, it's that the best thing Pete Hegseth can do to strengthen our military is resign in disgrace immediately."

You don’t have to do layoffs. And he specifically says that they are going to permanently terminate civil servants who are registered Democrats.

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries. He said this out loud.

The faces of our generals as they listen to a 34-time convicted felon and 5-time draft dodger.

Trump's Fascist Attack on Teachers and the GOP's 70-Year Fight to Dismantle Public Education @rweingarten.bsky.social is standing up to Donald Trump and the GOP's bad-faith attacks, threats, and smearing of teachers and public education. thelefthook.substack.com/p/trumps-fas...

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

I hope this reporter sues. And as I suspected, the very worst people in the country are the ones who want to join ICE.

Neguse: "I would challenge anyone to make sense of the rantings and ravings you just heard from the president. These are not serious people tweeting out offensive videos last night on Truth Social ... I think it's important for all of us to acknowledge what we see with our own eyes"

Pete Hegseth thinks it's masculine to be violent. Let that sink in. We have a perseverated prepubescent sadist with impulse control disorder as SecDef.

"As [Epstein's] victims continue to come forward, and new evidence continues to emerge, the questions and demands for justice grow louder. What can we learn from the information that has been released? What will it take for the full files to be released? And how will Trump respond?"

"It isn’t like our farmers aren’t producing enough crops and need help in order to get production going again. The US produces a huge amount of food, more than we need here at home. But farmers need to have somewhere to sell it." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social

1/ DEVELOPING: A journalist was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Hospital following another incident with an ICE agent at 26 Federal Plaza, an immigration court in NYC. The last I heard, he was getting X-rays for his lower back.

I know I’m a bit of a nitpicker, but maybe an alcoholic, raping, Nazi-tattoo-wearing, Fox News personality just shouldn’t be in charge of our military.

This emotional speech is a reminder to our elected officials like Gabe Evan's that their actions have real consequences on real people. On their constituents that they swore an oath to protect.

Republicans don’t need a single democratic vote to fund their regime. Here’s why. Please share widely.

"The point is that voters are hungry for authenticity, for leaders who understand their lives, and for a Democratic Party that fights as hard as the stakes demand." Read @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social's op-ed on Meidas+. 👉 www.meidasplus.com/p/dont-let-a...

I wonder how Pete Hegseth feels about fat presidents?

Why can’t we have nice things, too, instead of more spread of preventable diseases?

Ronald Reagan–appointed U.S. District Judge William Young: “ICE goes masked for a single reason — to terrorize Americans into quiescence… To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed, masked secret police.”

The President turning the military against Americans is a bigger story than the shutdown and media outlets should treat it accordingly.

Treason weasel.

Sen. Ruben Gallego: "This is the most political Department of Defense that has ever existed. It is not fulfilling its role and mission — to protect us, to protect the United States. It's now becoming an arm of the presidency. Secretary Hegseth is really a joke."

BREAKING: Just hours before the fiscal year ended, a federal judge in R.I. has ordered the Trump administration to preserve $233 million in FEMA funds it attempted to abruptly steer away from 8 blue states. Without that order, the states would've lost the money at midnight.

Chicagoans won’t put up with these terrorists

Everyone, meet our newest Congresswoman, Adelita Grijalva! Adelita was elected in a Special Election last Tuesday to fill the seat left by her father, a dear friend and beloved mentor. She was supposed to be sworn in this week—but the Speaker has shut down the House and not sworn her in.

The GOP controls all of govt. The GOP has broken so many promises to the democrats, like rescinding money they passed, cutting programs they approved by executive order, that trust cannot be assumed. So, fund govt GOP. If you need Dems help then ok, but there is a price. Easy

Democrats are in full attendance, while Republicans are nowhere to be found. At least one side is working for us.

🚨 BREAKING: Republicans have shut down the government. They don’t want us to have healthcare. 💥 And they’re terrified of @adelitaforcongress having the power to release the Epstein files. 🧨 This is just a political game to them and American people will SUFFER! newrepublic.com/post/201142/...

Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband. Today they attacked two journalists. We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.

BREAKING: This is Donald Trump's Shutdown. Rep. Greg Casar: “There are more mentions of Donald Trump in the Epstein Files than there are House Republicans here in Washington D.C. today.”

Federal judge, appointed by Reagan, in 161-page opinion today in deportation matter: "There’s the issue of masks... To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police"

Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy is donating $100,000 from his political fund to the progressive organizing group Indivisible — the latest in a series of donations he says total nearly $1 million to grassroots groups across the country taking on the Trump admin. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

JUST IN: Democracy Forward and federal labor unions are suing to block the threat of mass firings during the shutdown, saying they're an abuse of OMB Director Russ Vought's authority. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump threatens to permanently cut jobs and people’s health care if a shutdown happens, making it clear only Democrats would actually care — then lies about “fraud/waste/abuse” Tough to negotiate with people who don’t actually care about the people they’re governing
