You literally JUST voted with MAGAs in favor of Trump’s budget. Had you and the 20 other Dems who betrayed working people voted with the Democratic Party, Trump’s bill would have failed. No matter how much you try to spin it, your votes don’t lie. You’re pro Trump you shameful hypocrite.

This is the reality and truth. The goal is to abolish freedom of speech, the free press, the Constitution and democracy, and to run the country as Putin and other authoritarian governments are run...with a regime that penalizes and punishes those who speak up. #DV1 #Pinks #ProudBlue

"Interestingly, the jump seems to have began right as Melania debuted in theaters across the country." 😆😆😆 Guys, we know it's not a coincidence! 😆 It's at #4, and is back to being classified as a Documentary! Oh - there's no Face-Off 😉 #Pinks #ProudBlue deadline.com/2026/02/mich...

Lawyer for Epstein survivors: I'm not sure if it's intentional or it's incompetence, but what is very clear is that the DOJ has disregarded the wellbeing of the survivors. One of my clients was named 538 times in the latest release. It is unacceptable.

My uncle Howard Simons was Managing Editor of WaPost during Watergate. What a sad day for #USDemocracy

Another batch of Trump's judicial nominees refused in their confirmation hearings today to publicly acknowledge that Joe Biden won the 2020 election, which annoyed Sen. Richard Blumenthal enough for him to call them "monkeys" and "puppets"

🧐

Federal Judges have a very real and well-established reason to fear doxing and violence and yet I doubt anyone thinks it would be acceptable for them to preside from the bench in a hood.

Trump says he worries about "nuclear" as the world's biggest problem, but he's letting the last major arms treaty - one even the Russians want - lapse. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

And unless it's a cost-free government ID, it's a POLL TAX. If you have to pay the government for a document that you must have to vote, that is a POLL TAX.

There are literally emails between Epstein and gargantuan GOP donor Peter Thiel like "as discussed we shud distroy society" and yet the right wing propaganda machine is smearing Lutheran soccer moms as being on Soros's payroll.

The Constitution delegates the power to conduct elections to the states. This would require an amendment. It would expose voter data to the risk of one hack instead of 50. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/02/u...

1. Trump certainly wants to fully rig elections. 2. He has no actual plausible plan to do so. 3. We should absolutely take the threat very seriously and actively do what's possible to protect elections and democracy. 4. What's actually likely is success or failure at the margins; every bit counts.

“The idea that Trump is ordering ICE to soften up — whether at protests or in yanking people out of their homes or by rearranging the hierarchy — is hard to believe, and in fact, should not be believed.” Spot on by @sulliview.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/margaret...

New: Together with colleagues I’ve been testing Grok. The chatbot still produces sexualized images — even when told the subjects don’t consent. even when told the photos will be used for public humiliation. even when told the subjects are survivors of abuse. www.reuters.com/business/des...

Any ideas about which sheik may have "given" his virgin daughter to Trump in 2001 or 2002? bsky.app/profile/geun...

Our republican representatives and senators have abnormally become silent and pliant normalizing the economic, civil and literal rape of our country by trump and his bottom feeding family and sycophants. Craven cowardly politicians.

I gave a campus talk last night on Trump's first 100 days for the WUD Society & Politics group. A student asked me if I thought that, at some point, we might start to describe the US as a competitive authoritarian regime. I said that we were already there, it's just that most folks haven't noticed:

it has been clear for months

I was a White House ethics lawyer. I used to advise people not to even accept a free cup of coffee from someone who had interests before them. And staff followed those rules. I can’t even find the words to describe the scale of Trump’s corruption here.

And now a message from the convicted felon and adjudicated rapist who leads the Republican Party

"The Kennedy Center has been a living memorial for 55 years to President Kennedy, to the arts, and it's been nonpartisan. And in just one short year, (Trump) has destroyed all of that," said former Kennedy Center board member Barbara Comstock. https://to.pbs.org/45ObjTQ

This is now without question the biggest politico-financial scandal in United States history. Teapot Dome was trivial in comparison.

This needs to be at the top of every story about the ICE body-cam thing. They already have body cameras.

think of all the college students who were disciplined or expelled for protesting genocide

Liam, 5, has been freed, but four other students from his school district remain detained in Texas. Two boys from his elementary school were taken Thurs “This isn’t something we are prepared or trained for. We’ve dedicated our lives to protecting + educating children,” school superintendent told me

These are government employees. So our tax dollars are funding ICE to flash white supremacist cards at vulnerable POC as an intimidation tactic. Who is giving this direction? There’s something deeply sinister happening in this country right now, and I don’t think we can take three more years.

A few favorite lines: "I’ve had root canals that were more entertaining." "As first lady, Hillary Clinton tried to fix the healthcare system; Melania got stationery printed." "No pretty dress can disguise an ugly soul."

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

“Dear ICE agents - I hope you’re respectful to everyone and show kindness… we should treat all people the same, even if we don’t know them.” If this doesn’t shatter your heart you don’t have one. 💔 Our kids are watching. 🇺🇸 www.nytimes.com/2026/01/31/o...

The Trump Kennedy Center lasted less than two months

"A 2-year-old boy was breastfeeding in detention. One 6-year-old boy had leukemia. An 8-year-old girl began wetting the bed. A 14-year-old girl engaged in self-harm...None of these children or their parents had a criminal history anywhere in the world." www.nytimes.com/2026/02/01/o...

Absolutely losing my mind over Ava, THE ROCK'S DAUGHTER, quitting WWE despite them offering her a raise to keep working a pretty cushy kayfabe general manager gig and then the day after her contract ends she posts this

If you're a US citizen, you'll be free to go after agents briefly break your windows, beat the shit out of you, and leave you lying concussed in the street

*Adding… The US Government.

It was probably difficult to foresee that Trump would put the Kennedy Center out of business.

MAGA now entertaining the possibility that they may be guilty.

"If I can't have you, no one can" is the credo of almost every abuser. He's even tattooed his name on the building.

That's how Fox is literally chartered. They ARE entertainment as a legal entity.

Unreal. He’s shutting down the Kennedy Center, after his flunkies caused mass defections of artists? Everything the man touches turns to ash. Our cultural heritage; destroyed. Our national treasures; plundered.

We’re quickly becoming a tin-pot dictator led country.

There will be signs.

This is the U Penn donor who helped push the President out, pushed to eliminate arts & science offerings, and drafted Trumps "compact" with universities. People like Rowan repeatedly claimed the moral high ground to impose their agenda on students and faculty.

I keep the 50,000 reasons I oppose this guy in a Cava takeout bag. #SayNoMan2Homan 👎

Allison Gill reveals she’s been in contact with a woman who reported trafficking tied to Trump’s modeling agency to the FBI. The tip appears on the Epstein file pages that went viral — the FBI interview is missing.

Just a reminder that Todd Blanche was Trump's lead criminal defense lawyer before he made him Deputy AG.

Epstein had already been convicted and had served 13 months in prison years before Obama even made fun of Trump at the WHCD. this is nonsense.
