Forget the American Revolution. The Roberts Court is trying to undo the *English* Revolution. They want to go back to a monarchy where they’re the only check on the king’s power.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Democrats need to start using clear, moral language when it comes to Trump: this is evil

The only TV show Trump wants you to be able to watch

Democracy is dying in daylight because elites are so scared of losing their second vacation home that they’re selling out everything that makes this country great. Traitors and cowards.

I’m old enough to remember when Bob Iger, whose company recently paid $16 million to settle a meritless Trump lawsuit, and who just indefinitely suspended Jimmy Kimmel under pressure from the Trump administration, was a chair for the **Committee to Protect Journalists** dinner.

It’s disgusting to see how many elite institutions—media companies, law firms, and universities—are willing to go along with the destruction of our democracy if it will save them some money. They all need to prosecuted for bribery.

Turns out the First Amendment is meaningless when the government can just blackmail people into not saying things it doesn't like. Too bad there aren't courts that could stop these kind of obviously illegal abuses of power. Founders really should have thought of that, right John Roberts?

What is to prevent Brendan Carr from canceling the licenses of affiliates who accurately report election results unfavorable to Trump? Or a scandal involving a Trump associate? Or bad economic numbers. Unbridled authoritarianism.

How to be a Professional Centrist in 2 steps: 1) Cancel culture by college students is an existential threat to our democracy 2) Cancel culture by the most powerful person on the planet is something you don’t even mention

First they came for Colbert, and I said nothing, because I don’t want watch CBS…

The greatest threat to the rule of law is Trump. The second-greatest is the Roberts Court.

There is simply no value to Democrats in helping with passing budgets or CRs when the administration claims limitless arbitrary impoundment and rescission powers.

Can’t say the fascists are fascists or they might try to extort you next. The leaders so many media companies, universities, and major law firms have completely failed and deserve to be prosecuted for bribery.

The university surviving an existential lawsuit isn't front-page, push notification worthy news the same way the president of the university having some sloppy citations in her graduate thesis was

This level of obsequiousness is simply un-American. It's the kind of thing you'd hear in North Korea—and they'd get killed if they didn't say it. What's MAGA's excuse?

Ethnic cleansing on the blockchain. Their plan is literally ethnic cleansing on the blockchain. Our reality is so much darker than anything Black Mirror could come up with www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

How many Americans would die if Covid-25 hit right now?

If I were this much of a wimp, I simply wouldn’t tell anyone. But then again, I’m not a Republican.

Trump is trying to turn us into Russia, right down to the little green men

SCOTUS thought they could ride the tiger and get what they wanted ideologically. In exchange, they would give him everything he wanted except the Fed. Just leave the Fed alone and you can ignore all federal law. But it ended the same way it has for everyone who tried to ride the tiger since 2016.

Trump is illegally trying to take control of the Federal Reserve to force interest rates much lower than they should be. Between this & his tariffs, the guy who was elected to lower prices is going to massively increase them. The media totally failed to explain this & voters totally failed to think

I would say that ICE is now the KKK with a badge except that ICE agents don’t show their badges or their faces

Fox, CNBC, and the Wall Street Journal Editorial Page would have had around the clock coverage of “Maobama’s” communist attack on America if Obama had ever tried anything like this. The Roberts Court would have stopped it in 5 minutes.

Hard to think of a clearer declaration of dictatorship than "the Crooked game of politics is over"

Centrists in 1933: Liberals need to admit that someone really did set the Reichstag on fire, and stop getting worked up about the Enabling Act

Trump is trying to take military control of Washington DC so he can illegally stay in power in 2029. He’s going to use ICE, Border Patrol, and red state National Guard to try.

I’m beginning to think that the J6er who had a poster of a Nazi warship on his wall and “highly recommends” Pat Buchanan’s book about how we shouldn’t have fought the Nazis might be … a Nazi

Trump is sending armed troops into blue cities because he wants to shoot his political enemies, and the New York Times is busy telling us what an empathetic person he is

The Art of the Kneel

Trump has always loved Tiananmen, and wants our military to kill our civilians too

Abolishing ICE is the absolute least that needs to happen

Yes, these Nazis are Nazis

Nothing says “I deserve the Nobel Peace Prize” like threatening an economic war if you don’t get it

One of the guys who tried to overturn the government for accurately reporting the election numbers in 2020 is about to be in charge of making sure we stop accurately reporting the economic numbers in 2025. Bleak stuff.

“Carbon dioxide has what plants crave!” was right there in front of him

Kevin Hassett is a stone cold moron, but even he’s not stupid enough to actually believe this. He’s just such a genuinely bad person that he’s willing to say 2+2=5 if Trump demands it.

“Our opponents are fascists, but it would be bad to stop fascism by bending the rules like they are” is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard. There’s no bad way to stop fascism.

Kevin Hassett is a deeply immoral person whose—plausible!—excuse for being so execrable is that he’s too stupid to know better. In another life, he would have been touting Stalin’s record grain harvests

The good news: My prediction from December 2016 was correct The bad news: It was about Trump trying to turn us into Argentina

Trump’s on-again, off-again tariffs are probably to blame for today’s miserable jobs report. Instead of getting rid of his tariffs, though, Trump has decided to get rid of reliable economic statistics. They’re just going to fake the numbers.

Welp. Guess economic reporters can stop covering the jobs reports now.

Can’t wait for the BLS to congratulate Comrade Trump on another record grain harvest

“History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” —1984

Brown is acceding to government oversight of course evaluations, where they can investigate anyone they want for "antisemitism" based on student complaints.

QAnon is like if people who wanted to fight anti-Semitism decided that the best way to do that was to support Hitler

If any of this were funny, I’d be laughing about how Trumpers built an anti-pedophile cult around the guy who was best friends with the most famous pedophile of all time

Trump would rather release a child sex trafficker than release the Epstein files

If you live in NYC, the federal, state, and city tax credits add up to a combined ~75% of the cost of solar panels for your home, speaking as someone who just got them
