Imagine if large U.S. media sources called out such statements as blatantly illegal and un-American. Imagine...

Sean Duffy says he now has veto power over appropriations passed by Congress and signed into law. He is the dictator over infrastructure funds. If you do something he doesn’t like, you lose the funds passed by Congress. bsky.app/profile/atru...

In his first book, Peter Navarro declared that tariffs “make everyone a loser.” Then he started working for a man who called them “the greatest thing ever invented.” Ian Parker profiles Donald Trump’s obsequious economics cheerleader. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/pnlZTU

honestly, “it’s because they’re still mad about the New Deal” is a pretty good guiding hypothesis for a lot of stuff

“.. Not since the U.S. allied with Joseph Stalin during the Lend Lease Act has a White House official enjoyed such frequent, personal access to a Russian or Soviet leader. “Witkoff has yet to visit Ukraine.” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/world/putin-...

I’m shocked.

Jack Smith's information belongs to the US public. This government belongs to us. Information about this government belongs to us. This government exists at the behest of the US public. It's infuriating that they have these investigations and yet they're secret These people serve us. It's ours.

Statement from Maria Farmer: “This is amazing. Thank you for believing me. I feel redeemed. This is one of the best days of my life. Of course, it's mixed with the fact that I'm devastated about all the other little girls like Virginia who were harmed because the FBI didn't do their job. 1/

And the most incriminating part is she testified that a few years later she was a contestant in trumps beauty pageant. I’m serious. “Jane also acknowledged that in 1998, she took part in a Miss Teen USA beauty pageant that was associated with Trump” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Jack Smith wants to testify in public - Republicans refuse. He wants his depo tape made public - no again. The second strike boat video? - nope. Epstein files law complied with? - not today. Vote on ACA? - maybe next year. Republicans: Hide, obstruct, lie, delay, deny.

Spoiler Alert: It doesn’t matter how redacted the Epstein Files are; remember, Trump allowed Maxwell to go to a camp a week after she met his personal lawyer and is preparing to pardon her. That, in itself, is a confession that he raped teenage girls. Case closed.

The Trump Administration said they would release the Epstein files on "Day 1." It's now 11 months later. Deputy director of the DOJ, Todd Blanche, says they need more time.

Jack Smith has requested that Jim Jordan release the entire video of his 8-hour closed-door testimony which he gave this week to the House Judiciary Committee. Will Jordan release the video to the public? If not, why not?

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along

Feels to me like the last quote here is more devastating and incriminating than even the birthday book and the photos and the rest.

“Instead, NBC ran a rerun of ‘Law & Order’ and CBS aired a rerun of “Young Sheldon.’” "In 2014, major networks also refused to air a speech by former President Barack Obama about immigration reform, claiming it was too partisan.”

No. It’s a great time to be a violent criminal in America. Our most sophisticated law enforcement agencies are busy hunting landscapers & housekeepers.

Dachau opened in March 1933 under the legal fiction of “protective custody.” People were detained without charges, trials, or limits. Courts were sidelined under emergency decrees. Families were separated. The Nazi regime insisted this was lawful, temporary, & necessary for state security.

Exactly. If people can’t see the familiar choreography by now…..

Sounds about right.

This x 1,000,000

Jesse Peltan: "China is building more nuclear than the rest of the world combined, and still… all those reactors will generate less electricity than the solar China installed in the *first half* of this year." #alwaysbecharging nitter.net/JessePeltan/...

The fact that far too many people cannot recognize fascism unless it looks exactly like Nazi Germany is very dangerous.

Science matters. The Enlightenment age findings matter. Both now under siege by the low-information, non-critical thinking majority in America.

It used to be an impeachable offense. Now it’s a daily occurrence.

JFC. The weakening of America continues.

Miller's family came from an authoritarian country and he wants to turn America into an authoritarian country. Similar with Elon Musk wanting to make the United States an apartheid state. Why don't Musk, Miller assimilate into American culture and values?

Justice Jackson nails it, but that this has to be spelled out is so depressing.

So Trump announces today another deficit-funded, no congress-approval-needed bailout for the 99% white farmers, who are being hurt by his absurd tariff wars (taxes on consumers). Whut bout the deficit, you ask? Deficits are never mentioned by the for-profit press, when Republicans are in office.

Trump has pardoned over a hundred major drug traffickers despite his anti-drug rhetoric So why are we killing the boatmen at the absolute lowest level of the drug delivery? The boats were not headed toward US shores but in direction of Trinidad or Tobago www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I will not support any Democrstic candidate for POTUS if they are not vociferously committed to expanding the Court and reforming its ethics requirements. The current conservative hold on SCOTUS is shameful and untenable. This is long overdue. Who is with me? www.vox.com/politics/471...

The Republican Party really only has one core principle now: Everything the government does must either benefit Donald Trump and his allies or punish his enemies.

Democracy, what a novel idea, bout time!

Prime Minister of Poland. 🇵🇱

More of this nationwide please!

The systematic Ru destruction of Kherson, which is neither in Donbas, nor serves any serious military role for Ukraine, demonstrates that Ru’s goal is the destruction of Ukr as an viable independent state and thus handing Donbas to Ru would do nothing to bring about a durable settlement.

Russia is a war with the West. All Western countries except Ukraine refuse to defend themselves, maintaining a policy of defeatism and cowardice. Ukrainians will hold out as long as they can, but they've been the only nation fighting for Western civilization for almost 12 years.

There is virtually no fed criminal law for wealthy people in America right now. Doesn’t exist. Trump’s DOJ either drops their charges or he pardons them. Anyone can buy their way out of prison for the right price on any charge, with crime victims left shattered with no justice.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends. We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over. We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Boston's Mayor Wu playing with Yo-Yo Ma at Symphony Hall

Impeach and remove. Now.

reminder that Donald Trump said on the record that he partied with his buddy Jeffrey Epstein and women “on the younger side” and yet we’re pretending like the natural of their relationship is some big mystery

horrible orange man is afraid of her? Glad she asked him the correct questions, doing her job!

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain. The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance
