A Republican congressman just said 60% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck “maybe don’t work as hard” as him, while bragging about eating lobster tails & ribeyes. We’re choosing between rent & groceries & corrupt Republicans think we’re just lazy. #TrumpRepublicanCorruption

We stand in support of Major Jason Watson, an active US Air Force officer, who was arrested today for calling for tRump to be impeached, removed, and convicted for the high crimes he has committed since assuming power again. freespeechforpeople.org/free-speech-...

"To say that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." - Teddy Roosevelt #26 in Salvatore Catalano's series of American Presidents

The Supreme Court has issued the last of its opinions for this term, but the fight for free and fair elections in court continues. If you appreciate the work of Democracy Docket in tracking cases and keeping you informed, subscribe now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

No man can be a good citizen who is not a good husband and a good father, who is not honest in his dealings with other men and women, faithful to his friends and fearless in the presence of his foes.... – Teddy Roosevelt He would be horrified at the selfish, vulgar, corrupt Trump.

THIS IS WHAT IS CALLED FOR UNDER FASCISM — BRAVERY Before the attacks & the hot takes start, a few facts: Major Jason Watson is a graduate of the US Air Force Academy, a career logistics officer, a NATO officer, and a decorated veteran who volunteered for a 365-day tour in Afghanistan… 🧵

ACTIVE DUTY AIR FORCE MAJOR CALLS FOR THE IMPEACHMENT OF TRUMP! This speech is historical ✊

How about we lift up ordinary people who are hurting instead of billionaires and a trillionaire who hurt people!

“When the president..orders military action against foreign countries absent an emergency scenario..that's..usurpation of Congress's authority..These violations resulted in the deaths of 13 service members..For this, the president and vice president must be impeached” Active Duty Major Jason Watson

Trump Recalls ‘Conversation’ With Theodore Roosevelt — Who Died 27 Years Before He Was Born. Nothing to see but the dementia www.mediaite.com/media/tv/tru...

Todd Blanche's deadline to put up or shut up is tomorrow. It's true! @katiephang.bsky.social is a bad ass. Setting precedent and taking names. Check out our conversation about her case here. Never any paywalls. Ever. www.muellershewrote.com/p/a-major-wi...

The framers never envisaged the AR-15 being cheap enough for every asshole to buy one, but that doesn't stop the judicial Ouija board of “originalism” from slavishly following one half of one amendment.

When new Bills receiver DJ Moore was in a suburban Buffalo mall recently, he saw a store selling T-shirts with his name and number. He spent $1,200 to buy out the entire stock and asked the manager to give them away for free to Bills fans.

The last legitimate Republican President elected legitimately Ask your MAGA friends and family to read the GOP Presidential platform under Eisenhower to see how far to the right their party has moved. He would be despised by the party that he wouldn't recognize as his being own today.

Today, our friend Jay USAF Major Jason Watson read his oath to the Constitution and demanded that Congress do its job to IMPEACH this President and cabinet. He was arrested on the Capitol steps. #DOOR @defendersofourrepublic.org @removalcoalition.bsky.social @citizensimpeachment.com

The most corrupt "president" in history, Donny Trumpy has made over$1,000,000,000 in one year. So he's getting richer while 90% of us are getting poorer. This should be a major issue, maybe the only issue in the midterms.

In 1869, Congress passed the Judiciary Act, which set the number of justices at 9, which matched the number of federal judicial circuits. Each SCOTUS associate justice oversees a federal judicial circuit. We now have 13 federal judicial circuits. We need to add 4 associate justices!

This is why data centers are the hottest topic on the planet 🌎

So “depression” kept Thomas Kean Jr. away from Washington and from representing his constituents, but it didn’t keep him away from profiting off the stock market. No one knew where he was for weeks. Could you get away with that at your job?

Trump has too much power - he should not be able to remove people from a position that has taken them years and a tremendous amount of education and personal sacrifice to gain a position of respectability. Trump putting in people who do not know the position and only do what he wants is NOT Right.

This man makes me wish I lived in Georgia so I could vote to reelect him to the Senate. I guess I'll just have to wait to vote for Jon Ossoff @ossoff.bsky.social when, hopefully, the Dems draft him to run for President! 🇺🇸 #AwesomeOssoff2028

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

@sandyfukiu.bsky.social Big hugs hon. I'm so so sorry.

A win! A federal court has dismissed the DOJ’s lawsuit seeking access to New Hampshire’s unredacted voter data. The ruling marks the department’s 11th legal defeat in its nationwide effort to obtain states’ private voter information.

Damn idiots don't read instructions or warning labels.

Zendaya is amazingly beautiful. That's all.

The RNC thought it had found a new way to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands — if not millions — of lawful voters. It spent millions building a case in an attempt to use disenfranchisement as a systematic tool to gain partisan advantage. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

A group of House Dems have introduced 13 new articles of impeachment targeting Trump. Coming on the heels of a fierce congressional battle over curbing executive war powers, some lawmakers & admin critics argue Congress must evaluate whether Trump & his top officials are fit to remain in office.

The speaker has 2 legislative days to schedule a vote

If you owe a woman $5 million for sexual assault, you also owe the country your resignation.

Aspirational

The president tried to rewrite the Constitution, and even his handpicked Supreme Court told him he went too far and reined him in. If you’re born in the United States, you are an American. Period. This should have never been up for debate in the first place.

An extraordinary cancer stat recently just dropped: zero. That’s how many UK women in their early 20s died from cervical cancer between 2020-24. My latest @opinion.bloomberg.com is on 20 years of HPV vaccines--& how the US could better maximize the potential of this critical public health tool (🎁):

The Supreme Court STRIKES DOWN Trump's anti-birthright executive order. I was honored that Sotomayor cited 5 of my articles in her dissent in Slaughter yesterday. It's a sweeter honor today as Jackson cited my historical work supporting birthright, p. 12 & 13, forthcoming in UC L.J.

Alexa just cheerfully told me that although it's 82°, "it currently feels like 102 due to the humidity." Damn your cheerfulness, Alexa ...

It's been absolutely steamy outside tonight. At midnight it was still 76, SO weird here in the mountains. Couldn't see the strawberry moon, but the tree tops were fairly sparkling with lightning bugs like little fairies dancing in the sky. Made some wild lettuce tea, others swear it helps sleep.

US auto industry is projecting a 1 million unit drop in sales for the year, largely because of a drop in immigration. The economic impact on this country is manifested in so many ways.

🚨VICTORY: Supreme Court holds that federal Election Day statutes do not prevent Mississippi from counting absentee ballots postmarked by Election Day but received afterwards A huge victory for our clients and the Elias Law Group team. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I’m grateful that I have known hunger, poverty and loneliness in my 74 years. I will always remember living on instant mashed potatoes. I added mustard for flavoring. It’s made me a better human being, more empathetic to the needs of my brothers and sisters. We’re all in this together. Fuck greed!

Still feeling lousy. I'm sick pretty seldom, and this reminds me what a bad patient I am. I'm so over this and want it fixed now. Meh. It was better when it was raining. Now the sun's out and I don't wanna feel bad.

In Spain today: installation of solar panels above major irrigation channels. Channels of more than 100 kms transport water from dams to farmland. - Reduces evaporation -Provides large agricultural areas with power & supports irrigation -Decreases use of water in food production, doubling the crop.

Maine just became the first U.S. state to pass a moratorium on hyperscale data centers.
