It’s a Biblical fairytale which became blood libel, now morphed into an extreme racist version of Xian nationalism. F’ing’ell!

On Pod Save America they can’t seem to grasp that MTG may have an offer of a cushy lobbyist or think tank sinecure, contingent on her letting trump put a minion in to be incumbent?

I would go way further: ICE ignores the easy, lawful ways of bringing people to court, instead throwing them face down on the street, kidnapping them, & sending them to life sentences in foreign gulags - all w/o any legal basis or due process.

I had imagined that British racism would be a touch less grotesque than the US version: I'd thought you'd have at least "he's one of the good ones, see how he's assimilated, not like the others" but if they can't even do that they're as worthless as our magas.

And they're demanding more babies (from straight married couples only please!). Will they help them once the children are born? Get out o' here!

With that amount of effort, there MUST be employees who understand that their role in altering evidence to protect the guilty is too important to remain stumm. Whistleblowers, TIA for your service to this world!

Does anyone think Donny hired & continued to employ Alina Habba for her legal qualifications? We have a govt where a history of sexual assault seems to be a qualification to be hired, with insane amounts of conflict of interest. Willis and the guy were on the same side - that's a serious conflict?

Are they cowards or just part of the legal establishment that is fine with helping to destroy the rule of law to ensure permanent Republican control?

Seems like most (esp. "journalists") criticizing Fani Willis for using RICO or getting disqualified are glossing over the facts that she elicited several guilty pleas from defendants and was replaced by a MAGA prosecutor who is the one requesting the dismissal. Are journalists really this ignorant?

Disgusted to hear of the targeted shooting of National Guard members in DC today. All Americans should unite in condemning and rejecting this violence. Sending prayers to these victims and their families, and thankful to the responders who acted so quickly.

@NYTimes's been happy to protect & promote Trump & Project 2025 for years. I wish I knew how much is fear of attack exclusively from one side, how much is the owner's commitment to maintaining the status quo of big business control & weakening of any source of democratization in the US.

There will be no way to restore US democracy without expanding the Supreme Court. The MAGA justices are clearly determined to ensure permanent minority rule by Republicans by any means necessary. They'll overturn any code of ethics or term limits passed by Congress, any bar to gerrymandering...

Can we use this as a model for how to bring the Kennedy Center back from the dead once we start #Reconstruction2.0?

This is the kind of pettiness we need!

No US or intl law authorizes any govt to send anyone - w/o charges, evidence, even a fig leaf of due process - to a life sentence in a hellhole of torture. This rivals Czarist or Stalinist sentences to Siberia, which had show trials paying homage to the pretence of justice, and limited terms.

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

Epstein files.....

AMEN! It is insane that reporters are not demanding to see whatever (BS invented) evidence the trump regime has for killing civilians in cold blood in violation of US and international law!

BREAKING: new emails CONFIRM my reporting that there are TRAINING VIDEOS instructing FBI personnel on how to review the Epstein Files. Plus, a lot more…

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

I need to find the audio for this. I can't believe the room didn't erupt in laughter!

🚨Imagine ICE conducting a raid on your PRIVATE PROPERTY.🚨 Illegal, unconstitutional, and an elevation of ICE’s encroachment. This needs to have national attention. 1/2

It says a lot about our country that the FBI had no interest in interviewing Brett Kavanaugh but wants to talk to Mark Kelly.

Hey @governor.ca.gov Newsom, let's put this on the ballot! “Every corporation operating under the laws of this state has all the corporate powers it held previously, except that nothing in this statute grants or recognizes any power to engage in election activity or ballot-issue activity.”

Can we see what it looks like per capita? Must be even worse.

But HOW? Thomas has brought the other MAGA justices to his view that $=Speech, so it can almost never be limited in any way. They'll continue killing every accountability or fairness law that comes before them. We need experts to find a way they can't block.

Spot on! 🔥🔥🔥

BTW, note donny in Mamdani drag

Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan. And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.

The only Republican speaking with clarity on this issue. Sad that he’s the only one.

Cory Doctorow: 1/3 of the S&P500 is 7 companies passing around money to each other, ie, it’s not actually revenue.

Like Grandma always said: “wear your good knickers. When they recover your body after the crash you don’t want them thinking you’re a slag!”

Wow. It’s surprisingly chilling to hear it said out loud

NYT used to be the voice of the post-WWII consensus, NATO, WTF, a bit of UN. But now they present Putin’s initial negotiating position to Ukraine as the “US approach” - Republicans Divided on US Approach to Russia in Peace Talks www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

"What if?" If there's any question, it's whether it's JUST this. Palantir AI will "find irregularities in your data" & withhold your tax refund, SSR/SSI, Healthcare, SNAP, green card, student loan, etc & cut you off. 1/

Those cvnts demanded & got EVERYTHING in days in violation of law. Make'em obey the law now & cough up the data!

DOGE isn't really dead, but it is injured. Part of the credit for that belongs to my former federal colleague Chuck Borges, rhymes with gorgeous. Chuck blew the whistle on DOGE Social Security data theft and got fired for it. Now he's running for office! Check him out: @chuckborges.bsky.social

DOGE personnel should face investigation & prosecution for: conspiracy against rights, deprivation of rights, major fraud, false statements, impersonating officers, misuse of federal funds, obstruction, witness tampering, records-act violations, Hatch Act abuse, & sweeping constitutional violations.

They'll be the Deep State MAGAs bitched about, obstructing all Democratic attempts to restore due process & efficient svcs. From Day 1 W packed DHS w ideologues who stopped Obama & Biden reforms. Now it's 10x worse: they've packed every dept w incompetent hacks. Will Dems purge them? I doubt it.

As Ezra Klein sinks into corporate media groupthink, he cements his loyalty to the class with Zakaria's Heritage-Fdn-worthy trashing of the right to asylum. The voters demonstrate our rejection of MAGA's hatred, and corporate media responds by going increasingly right.

I give 2:1 odds they're targeting Jewish students or academics whose social media shows they've been insufficiently obedient to the extreme right. MBS, Modi, Erdogan & Putin have used SW to find & punish dissidents abroad. It'll be presented as "to protect against antisemitism." See EO14169

SEN. GALLEGO: "This is fucking insane... Secretary Hegseth, all these guys, fuck you, you're not going to be able to scare us. You say you’re not acting like fascists… you won’t intimidate us.” on the “investigation” announcement for telling the military their oath is to the constitution

I'd also point out that the level of completely unnecessary violence is clearly policy, not 'overzealousness' or lack of training. They're throwing 100% cooperative people on their faces just to be thugs.

Wow, when even one of the men who prevented this from happening for the last 2 decades has realized the error of his ways, it's conceivable that we Democrats *might* fight to take our party back from the corporate overlords who have kept us in the uniparty since Clinton's presidency.
