Everything is getting stupider

The incompetence of Duffy, Pete Hegseth, and the rest of the administration reminds us just how laughably unfit and unqualified they are. The good news: the resistance is surging, our resilience is unbreakable, and come midterms, we will hold them accountable.

Jimbo, you morally depraved, lying sack of shit, Biden brought us back from the Covid economic crisis and led us on an upward trajectory. Your fucking guy, when he’s awake and not sundowning, thinks tariffs are a great idea. Quit blaming Biden for this regimes failures.

“You’re the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place. A terrible reporter.” Trump again attacks a Black female reporter, ABC’s Rachel Scott, for asking about releasing the full boat strike video - which he said he would do 5 days ago And the other journalists stay silent🐔

Schmidt uses his orange, fur-lined, gold-plated knee pads as much or more than the rest of the GQP Congress & SCOTUS members! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

If the Sep. 2 boat really had "narco-terrorists" on board, questioning the survivors would have been a way to learn about how the organization worked, where more drugs were stashed, etc. But this isn't a counter-terrorism campaign. It's a shooting gallery with helpless targets.

This isn’t about competition. Their policies are spawning monopolies in almost every major vertical. This is about making sure those at the helm of these monopolies are unquestionably loyal to Trump.

A date which will live in infamy. Today, we commemorate the more than 2,400 Americans who were lost during the attack on Pearl Harbor. We are forever indebted to the courage of those who stood up for democracy and freedom — and we will never forget their sacrifice.

I can't wait until the United States cleanses itself of all the ugly traces of Donald Trump. Take his name off buildings. Remove all the tacky gold bric-a-brac from the White House walls. Bulldoze his vulgar ballroom. Restore MLK, Jr Day and Juneteenth at parks. #Fumigate

We must recognize the destruction of the Trump Cult is just the first step in what must be done. He’s only a symptom of what’s actually wrong with the US. The hyper-concentration of wealth, monopolies and corporations-as-people systems must be obliterated or it doesn’t matter who’s in power.

December 6, 1963: President Lyndon B. Johnson confers Presidential Medal of Freedom on 31 recipients selected by JFK, including: contralto Marian Anderson; diplomat Ralph Bunche; cellist Pablo Casals; Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter; labor leader George Meaney...

When I taught Civics, I used Supreme Court cases to trace our expansion of rights to demonstrate democratic values. If I were still teaching Civics today, I would need to place the concepts of 'precedent,' 'stare decisis,' and 'rule of law' in the trash bin. This SCOTUS is corrupt.

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1931: Unemployed workers converge on Washington, D.C., for the first National Hunger March. It was the first in a series of protests led by the Communist Party to pressure politicians to provide economic relief, ultimately influencing New Deal policies. /1

Tom Nichols: “This ongoing game show of ‘strike a boat every day’ […] is making us into worse people — every one of us, whether we’re in uniform or just ordinary citizens. It is spiritually and morally corrosive on every level.” @radiofreetom.bsky.social

They’re desperately trying to separate the pipe bomber from MAGA, Trump, and 1/6. It’s why there’s a 22-day gap in the arrest affidavit. I’ll be covering this on the @meidastouch.com channel tomorrow at noon PT.

10 years in the making

So now it’s being reported that the DC Pipe Bomber’s motivation for the attempted bombing was that he believed Donald Trump’s claims about the the 2020 election was stolen. If those bombs had gone off, people would have died because one of Trump’s followers believed his lies.

The chances they have the names of these people are zero. No way they can name these victims.

This will be remembered as the most pathetic moment in American history. What a needy fool.

HAHAHA! Well, now the case is EXTRA dead. Even if they won an appeal on the Halligan thing, their core evidence is now off limits lulzzzz

Police Chief Brian O’Hara has delivered a blunt message to his department: If an officer witnesses ICE agents using illegal force and fails to step in, they will be fired. 👏 👏 👏

#ResistanceRoots Patsy Mink was born on this day in 1927 in Hāmākua Poko, Hawaii Territory. She was the first Asian American woman elected to Congress and the first woman of color to serve in the House of Representatives. She served Hawaii for 24 years and co-authored landmark legislation. /1

It took dozens of special agents the best part of a decade to bring Juan Orlando Hernández to justice for flooding US cities with cocaine. Then, in a single social media post last week, Donald Trump set the former Honduran president free. on.ft.com/4oA2Km0

Sign the petition to Stop Russell Vought, Project 2025 author and current CFPB & OMB Director. Vought says he’s closing down CFPB “within the next two or three months” and has blocked $1 Billion in financial relief to Americans ripped off by corporate greed. www.change.org/StopVought

America’s “billionaire” president...is now hawking $600 FAKE "Rolexes" that look like they came free...with a gas-station fill-up. Nothing says strength like running a country...and a smelly flea market...at the same time.

Me too

How can I say this gently… go back to your closet, you pusillanimous, stolen valor, hillbilly, Nazi. Nobody gives one wit what you have to say. You don’t live in Arkansas and you only pulled your head out of Karl Rove’s butt long enough to stick up Trump’s. #Arkansas #arpx #arnews

2/2 … make certain they were as comfortable as one could be in that situation. We never killed or even shot a single person but we seized a lot of drugs. Then again, we tried to uphold the Constitution and the dictates of baseline decency.

1/2 When I was a narc, I was involved in a couple hundred drug search warrants. Never at any point did the commander say, “Ok, let’s kill everybody here.” We did, however, get them medical attention, get them water, make certain they had their meds (if needed), keep them out of the elements and…

"When there’s no war, you aren’t committing war crimes when you kill people indiscriminately. You’re just a straight-up murderer."

Republicans once again rewarding fucking ignorance. An uneducated electorate is the gop's superpower.

President Obama's Nobel Peace Prize / donald trump's FIFA peace prize.

And zealotry in vaccine policy is not abstract. It kills. It is how preventable infections return, how cancers reappear, and how infants pay the price for the fantasies of adults who are convinced they know more than they do. This is not public health. It is vandalism.

This is not disagreement and it’s not caution. It is zealotry masquerading as expertise. The only way this panel could see itself as courageous truth-tellers is through a toxic mix of arrogance, disordered reasoning, and a refusal to learn from people who actually know this field.

A "FIFA Peace Prize" is tantamount to getting an "AutoZone Best Actor in a Dramatic Play" award. And "I want to really save lives" is rich coming from the homicidal slob who is murdering people on fishing boats in the Caribbean.

I am completely out of words for this bullshit. Holy fuck.🤦🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️

Abbe Lowell, the attorney who is representing Letitia James: “I can't tell you a time in the federal system...where a federal prosecutor thought a case was strong enough to bring to a grand jury, and the grand jury said no.” @kaitlancollins.bsky.social

The Secretary of Defense taking extrajudicial killing requests from podcast hosts

Newsom kills it with his trolling.

Just imagine what fucking bullshit Halligan said to the first grand jury to get them to vote yes. Trump’s legal revenge tour continues its undefeated losing streak. Letitia James

They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

When I have food that starts looking like this, I throw it out. I suggest the United States does the same.

🧵Another Trump pardon today. Bribery, corruption, and money laundering are top qualities for Trump. Only second to pedophilia. Trump is welcoming criminals at a rate never before seen in the history of the world.

Another cabinet meeting, another horror show as Trump’s sycophantic coterie praises Dear Leader. He, of course, couldn’t keep his eyes open except for when he was attacking Somalis & dodging responsibility for war crimes. @markjacob.bsky.social & I discuss. www.americaamerica.news/p/the-n-kore...

Himes: "What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service ... any American who sees the video that I saw will see the US military attacking shipwrecked sailors."

Once again...Kash Patel is speaking at the podium. And, once again...I find it impossible to see him as an adult...let alone a responsible and truthful adult.
