I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this. But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.

And now “immanent”! This getting annoying, @nytimes.com #nytspellingbee

The energy we need is this suburban dad standing out in the street -- barefoot with Blackhawks pajama pants on -- screaming at the masked goons to get the fuck out of their neighborhood.

Stephen Miller is an angel of death. Stephen Miller is a Nazi. Trump is his fascist god, and you are his enemy. It’s well past time to wake up. steveschmidt.substack.com/p/maga-is-tu...

I am not in favor of this. We need someone new. — That said, if she is the nominee I’ll happily vote for her against MAGA. But — we need someone new.

This is extrajudicial murder. It is illegal and unethical. And it is a pathetic use of American military force, demonstrating not strength but weakness.

That’s not his house he’s tearing down, it’s OUR house.

Trump has illegally bombed a civilian boat in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Colombia. This is a crime. Congress has not authorized military action in the region, and federal law prohibits killling suspects — even alleged drug smugglers — without due process.

Nip this shit in the bud.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase. The President is building an army to attack his own country.

“This is not about drugs, it’s not about Venezuela, it’s not about anything else but this new assertion by the president that the U.S. military will kill anyone he points at, for any reason he deems sufficient.” Very true and very scary comment by Tom Nichols. @radiofreetom.bsky.social

And “hoyden”. 🙄 Why so many words not on the list? #nytspellingbee #spellingbee

If the Democrats were smart (I know, I know, assuming facts not in evidence, but hear me out) they'd run 30 seconds of this footage, without any commentary, as an ad.

This would be murder then. Of course it always was.

If this is true … good God.

I can’t imagine Trump pardoning Jesus Christ though. He only pardons those who bow to him.

Today’s peaceful protests were the perfect example of what @radiofreetom.bsky.social has repeated ad nauseum (only to receive ad hominem attacks): We are not yet living under fascism. Many of our current leaders are fascists. But they don’t control us yet and we need to make sure they never do.

NYPD on Twitter. Pretty awesome commitment to peaceful protest. #NoKings

#A_NewHope ✊

America has a Constitution and the rule of law. We’re sick of Donald Trump’s attempted rule by fiat. America says #NoKings.

I think this moment of people feeling nervous about something and doing it anyway could prove quite liberating and profound

Nice turnout this morning for #NoKings in Hilliard,Ohio! Lots of support from passing cars.

If you recline your seat on an airplane in coach, and there is a full-grown adult sitting behind you, you will not see the light of heaven.

And also “atlatl”! #nytspellingbee

Hey, @nytimes.com, “cenote” is absolutely a word. #nytimesspellingbee

The vice president of the United States is a clownish dipshit, Exhibit 64,532

Happy Thanksgiving, Canada! 🍁

Not sure why it has taken until late 2025 to see this, but this is how you do it. Every time. For every one of these guests.

❤️

What a surprise. 🙄

Shut off her mike

In all my years of owning a car, I’ve never had trouble with the simple task of replacing windshield wiper blades until today … First pair (cheap) thumped and skipped; second pair (not cheap) smeared. #why 🤨

👏👏👏

In a world of extremes, I don’t totally disagree with this, BUT: the news should be about facts, and analysis should be by experts rather than rabble-rousing “personalities”.

The 2025 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine has been awarded to a trio of scientists for their discoveries "concerning peripheral immune tolerance." https://cnn.it/48LnpiI

In honor of National Poetry Day, the greatest parody rewrite of all time:

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

Start your day with a million pounds of Big Leany

Goes without saying that this is an illegal order that military commanders are bound to disobey.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

I looked this up and it seems to be true! 🤣🤣

…

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen to Fox & Friends host Lawrence Jones: "In New Hampshire we do not provide health insurance for illegal immigrants, we have never done that, and you are just wrong."

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

Listening to Ramin Djawadi’s Game of Thrones music. ❤️

Rest in peace, Dr Jane Goodall. What an incredible, beautiful life.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Lots of folks want to have a gotcha, "did you know: America has always had corruption!" No shit. But did you know: a huge reason millions of people came to this country was because it was *better* at things like the rule of law and not being openly corrupt. For real. bsky.app/profile/anil...
