After Donald Trump's address to military leaders today, "senior U.S. officers have to wonder who will shield them from the impulses of the person they just saw onstage," @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues in The Atlantic Daily.

#trump repeated the message that #hegseth touted earlier—that the #military will no longer be "politically correct." "Merit. Everything's based on *#merit* [loyalty to the Supreme Leader]. You're all based on merit. We're not going to have somebody taking your place for political reasons [🤣] […]

It's very strange that this is being covered as a funny story about the president of France having to call POTUS about not being able to get to his motorcade. Reverse the rules with our president in any other country and I'm sure it would be covered in a completely different way.

HOLY SHIT

Kimmel’s back—proof that public pressure can make a difference. But folks in our region won’t be able to watch tonight because KOMO’s owner, Sinclair, refuses to air the show on its ABC stations. It’s corporate cowardice to censor programming just because the president doesn’t like it.

Pritzker: "This is a person who thinks that his personal will should be imposed on the United States. That's not how it works."

Trump erases hundreds of millions in debts owed to fraud victims youtube.com/shorts/ktyjH...

Sen. Chris Murphy: "We are quickly turning into a banana republic. POTUS is employing the full power of the federal government—the FCC, the DOJ—in order to punish, lock up, take down off the air all of his political enemies. This is what happens in Iran, Cuba, and China."

Never forget what happened on September 10, 2025. That was when US Republicans blocked the release of the Epstein files. #opDeathEaters #EpsteinFiles #EndImpunity #3E

Ok for the 100th time. Democrats need to instead be reminding America they have NO POWER and this is entirely on the GOP to fund govt. entirely. If they need dem help then ok but there will be a cost. Is anyone over there any good at messaging?

So unifying

Why does it take a BRITISH newspaper to break a story like this? Where the hell is the American media? 🤨

Trump gives FRIGHTENING SPEECH at CHARLIE KIRK MEMORIAL youtu.be/2AQyCgyvknY?...

Obvious to say, but the algorithm will be manipulated to amplify MAGA disinformation and throttle anti-Trump posts.

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.

Tom Homan investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents.... youtu.be/YFLOx60ZPms?...

Since there have been too many documented instances of ICE murdering people in the street or illegally grabbing or beating US citizens the Trump regime has an innovative solution; you can no longer film ICE and fuck your first amendment, buddy.

Good thing US officials have a handle on protecting people’s human rights and guaranteeing their safety after ICE kidnaps them… sike! At least 11 US officials were removed and arrested for trying to guarantee ICE victim’s safety and welfare.

You don’t need skilled workers when you can have new oligarchs! Trump is now selling golden & platinum visas to any billionaires that want to live in the US tax free & away from international courts; as a bonus they get obedient peasants to serve them & lick their boots.

The Pentagon said on Friday that it would require journalists to pledge not to gather or use any information that had not been formally authorized for release or risk losing their credentials to cover the military.

I 💯 blame SCOTUS for this. They gave him his "free pass" to do what he wanted. The traitorous court. May they pay for their crimes against the constitution, this country, and to its people they were supposed to protect

“Corruption corrodes good government like rust on iron — slowly eating away trust, weakening institutions, and leaving behind only the hollow frame of authority.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/18/w...

As chair of the Senate committee that oversees FCC, Ted Cruz could do something more about this than talk about it on his podcast www.dallasnews.com/news/politic...

This seems good

Pete Buttigieg WARNS America: “They didn't stop at the law firms. They didn't stop at the Universities. They didn't even stop at the comedians. They are NOT going to stop until they have TOTAL POWER!."

🚨BREAKING: Rep. Ro Khanna just motioned to SUBPOENA FCC chairman Brendan Carr in the House Oversight Committee to stop the intimidation of private businesses and assault on free speech

Powell: "Job gains have slowed and downside risks to employment have risen. At the same time, inflation has risen recently and remains somewhat elevated ... GDP rose at a pace of around 1.5% in the first half of the year, down from 2.5% last year."

No elected official is above our constitutional rights. The Constitution brought America’s states together into a unified whole that derives its power from the people. We must call out any action that undermines the principles our founders fought for and protect our democracy.

Himes: ABC took Jimmy Kimmel off the air because Brendan Carr, the chairman of the FCC, didn’t like some things Kimmel said.. I’m talking to you now because I’m just getting so damn sick of people who claim to be for free speech but turn out to only support free speech for people they agree with.

Why is the right so angry? They control the entire government and they’re still miserable f*cks. Joy Reid nailed it.
