The Overton Window appears to be moving. Instead of ignoring or attacking the criticism of horrible actions, they’re now using the intern defense.

In the last hour, dozens of GOP lawmakers began to denounce Trump's racist meme. Minutes ago, the White House capitulated and deleted the post. If those same lawmakers showed that same level of moral clarity when it comes to the Constitution & fair elections, the White House would capitulate. /1

fwiw the white house deleting the post kind of disproves the people insisting its an orchestrated distraction

An infant in New Mexico has just died from listeria. Public health officials think it is because the mother drank raw milk during pregnancy. I can imagine this family’s pain. Please, please don’t drink raw milk. It is of no benefit whatsoever.

I hope lawyers, secretaries of state, and state attorneys general are preparing for what’s coming.

This is precisely what happened to the transcript of the Zelensky call that led to Trump’s first impeachment. They stashed it in a code-word classified system for political reasons.

Correction: It would lead to impeachment in a democracy, or in any country with a socially-sophisticated population. America has neither.

White-Cain of WH Faith Office at the NPB on Trump: "No president in modern history, or perhaps all of history, has done more, structurally, substantially, and sincerely, to elevate and protect religious liberty." Note: Trump admin is currently being sued by dozens of religious denominations/groups

Gestapos opened fire, striking Martinez 5 times in the arm, chest & both legs 1 gestapo had body cam ... Martinez has said in court that it shows an officer shouting "do something b--" The gestapo who shot her, in a group text: "I fired 5 rounds & she had 7 holes. Put that in your book, boys."

SORKIN: Are you recommending the case against Powell continue? MORENO: As a senator, I should not weigh in on criminal investigations S: Do you believe Trump should weigh in on investigations? M: Every president has opinions S: But you just said that as a senator you shouldn't have an opinion!

That‘s the spirit.

It's time to light the lights: Disney+ celebrates the 50th anniversary of The Muppet Show with a new special, exec produced by Seth Rogan, with special guest star Sabrina Carpenter. Now streaming!

Honestly? I’m not surprised about what men say anymore about black women. . .

Oh no. He will be hauled in front of multiple congressional committees multiple times. Don’t forget to thank James Comer for establishing the precedent.

Kristi Noem is an absolute disgrace. And if Mike Johnson is too big of a coward to impeach her, we will!

I live in Florida, and I have a lot of Latino friends. They all speak English, put they are PISSED about this. 😡

The GOP donor has not shied away from criticizing Trump’s policies in the past, but this is the first time he’s called out the administration’s alleged self-dealing and conflict of interest issues.

I wish I had practiced my "shocked face" more.

The Right is a lie machine - proved time and time again.

MELANIA TRUMP: "It is captured on camera and available to see in my new film, 'Melania'" MELANIA TRUMP MOMENTS LATER: "This is not promotion"

Fulton County officials asked a federal court to return 2020 election ballots that the FBI seized last week. The county is also requesting that the court unseal the affidavit the administration used to obtain approval for the search.

To understand "Dr. Oz," you need to remember that he only says things to make money or get attention, never to inform or help others.

So the “elected” President with his elected majority House and Senate says they have to takeover elections because Dems cheat. Make that argument make sense.

The reason Trump and Mike Johnson want to “take over elections” is because they know they’re deeply, DEEPLY unpopular. They are far too weak to withstand a free and fair election.

Good time to reup this post from last month.

Well, my fellow Maine voters. Here is Susan Collins today paying tribute to her boss while holding her MAGA hat.

Former Comms Director for Nancy Mace responds to her claim today that she isn’t able to drink any alcohol because of a medical condition.

Given how thoroughly the American people have rejected the cruel Republican vision of "immigration enforcement" -- with clear majorities in poll after poll insisting ICE has gone too far -- he's just lying lazily here by claiming the American people are "demanding" this

in which Mike Johnson attempts to scripture-splain to the [checks notes] Pope

Reprehensible for the speaker to suggest fraud in what were likely routine circumstances, with perhaps big city precincts with more votes to count reporting later.

Mike Johnson: "GOD FORBID we do what the US Constitution requires us to do! And GOD FORBID we use some of that $190 BILLION DOLLARS from the Big Bullshit Bill that was given to DHS to actually fund competent immigration judges who can ensure due process for ALL people, regardless of citizenship!"

NWS confirms 2.3 magnitude earthquake rattled Summerville Tuesday afternoon abcnews4.com/news/local/n...

Fox 9 MN reporter Paul Blume: "SHOCKING FEDERAL COURT MOMENT: DOJ attorney Julie Le, 'The system sucks, this job sucks' to Judge Jerry Blackwell who pressed her on why so many court orders are being ignored by ICE/Trump admin. She asked to be held in contempt just so she could get 24 hours of sleep"

Again, this is FALSE. Administrative warrants are NOT signed by an immigration judge (or any judge at all). They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves with no external oversight whatsoever. Here is a blank sample warrant. Note who signs off on it; an "immigration officer."

WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.

Backfire! Turnabout being fairplay and all... "Law&Crime reported Monday that the board members' legal counsel is subpoenaing the full, unredacted copy of former special counsel Robert Mueller's report to verify claims Trump made were "defamatory." www.alternet.org/trump-russia...
