Even in his most fevered, drunken dreams, Richard Milhous Nixon couldn't possibly have even imagined doing a tenth of this shit.

BOLDUAN: When I was asking you about Comey, you've twice now brought up the Epstein files and Tom Homan. Why? RASKIN: Because the DOJ is in full coverup mode

If we're finally going to crack down about lying to Congress under oath, I think there are several Cabinet members and a few Supreme Court justices whose testimonies might need revisiting.

The protest has moved to the intersection of 25th and Harvard. Join us.

Last night, while watching a movie, hubby & I snacked on pumpkin spice Goldfish and pumpkin spice Cheerios. Hubby liked the goldfish better. I preferred the cheerios. Tis the season for pumpkin spice!

ICE has erected a gate to keep protesters out. They are blocking a public street, despite the Broadview Fire Department ordering ICE to tear it down. Join us at 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM. Tell Broadview to tear this fence down.

Let’s spell this out. Trump fired a qualified U.S. attorney who refused to do his bidding and installed his own personal lawyer to punish a perceived opponent. Justice needs to follow the law, not politics. This is an attack on the rule of law. Full stop.

My assessment of the charges against Jim Comey, what the government will have to prove, what happens next and what we can expect the judge to do, & why this is ultimately about Donald Trump, as much as if not more so, than it is about Comey. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Jim Comey’s response to the indictment.

Trump just signed a an EO that allows the full power or the federal government to go after extremist groups. Stephen Miller predictably went on a rant about Antifa, but not a *single* reporter asked if they’d be going after right wing extremists too. Shameful.

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

Swalwell on Comey: "What I would just say to any prosecutor at the DOJ is that it's not going away. As a member of the Judiciary Committee, I promise you when Democrats are in the majority we will look at all of this and there will be accountability and bar licenses will be at stake."

Today, I'm announcing a blueprint for the way forward in maternal health and birth equity in Illinois. I've committed this administration to making this the best state in the nation to raise a family. We cannot get there until it's safe and affordable for every mother to do so.

Quality, competent work by the DOJ. Let’s not rely on the law to charge someone. abcnews.go.com/Politics/new...

Oddly enough

I'm so angry about the weaponization of government and corporate America capitulation, I just swore on MSNBC. Sorry, but it is how I feel.

"The goal seems to be to use the military almost at random — not to advance a goal or deter a threat, but simply to exercise power and terror."

Here in Illinois, we are proud to continue expanding access to health care in our state. Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans in Washington are cutting funding for services — and now even threatening to shut down the federal government over it.

This is the fishiest shit I've ever seen. We're supposed to believe the shooter wrote "Anti-ICE" in pen on a bullet and then shot detainees but not ICE officers?

One beautiful morning, Chicago!

A protest sculpture depicting Trump with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein appeared briefly on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., bearing the caption “Best Friends Forever.” (This photo was shared with us the piece was installed by an anonymous artist collective.)

A lot of the commentators who deride Bluesky as a smaller or less active platform than X are totally clueless about how power on the internet works, which is also how they lost it to the alt-right. Internet culture fractured a while back. Niche spaces are actually the way to grow

Another vote to expose Trump and his gang of pedophiles…

Remember how MAGA swore Milei was turning Argentina around and his radical cuts were the blueprint we needed to use here? Well, now Argentina’s stock market is the worst on the planet and we’re giving them a $20 billion dollar bailout. Fun times.

"There, on her mother’s stomach, where her hands had fallen away, was the bloody outline of a butterfly." We're excited (and...scared? A little intrigued?) to share an excerpt from @wenyilee.bsky.social's adult fantasy When They Burned the Butterfly!! 🦋🔥 reactormag.com/excerpts-whe...

This is the perfect encapsulation of Trumpism -- because of its obsession with imagery, the White House crew caused a problem but blamed it on other people, leading to MAGA making threats against the United Nations for their own screw up

As I was saying…

I'm seeing this message everywhere except on "Following" At least I can see the people I'm following, but WTF Bluesky?
