Gee, where did they learn this garbage?

The fact that top Republicans are already fearmongering about, lying about, the No Kings rallies this Saturday, across the US, tells you how worried they are about public pressure and protest against their reactionary, autocratic, anti-American agenda.

Correct

That the Nobel Peach Prize was *not* awarded to thirsty Donald Trump makes it wonderful. That it was awarded to a woman makes it even better. That she is from a country Trump slanders makes it even better. That it was awarded for promoting democracy, something Trump undermines, makes it perfection.

War criminal weighs in on Nobel Peace Prize.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system. I am not fearful — I am fearless. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

So obviously corrupt. Any person who isn’t a maga nut job can see its’s legally horseshit and will go nowhere. Tragic for us as Americans nonetheless.

CHICAGO — Outside an elementary school during dismissal… horrifying. What have we become?

The federal government is making war on American cities. These people are fascist traitors.

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials. I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

What is going on with MTG? She sounds downright not crazy.

What is going on with MTG? She sounds downright not crazy.

This is how to do it.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

Crude perhaps, but on point.

File state charges. This is a crime.

JB Pritzker's forceful, defiant response to Trump's threat to jail him confirms the points I tried to make in the piece and thread below about the role of conflict and attention in the public battle over Trump's authoritarian takeover:

This guy is in charge of US health care.

Brutal. Constituents in Jim Jordan's (R-OH) district would have to fork up an additional $16,846 every year to keep their coverage.

Trump is bankrupting farmers, spiking prices for small biz and working families, and creating chaos in American cities. And he still has time for a round of golf!

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook. Our duty is to stand up to brutality. Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

The actual issue before us — which is very simple & clear — is that you are masterminding a police state for your overlord & classifying opponents as “terrorists” & in the process destroying the Constitution & a free society. Jew to Jew, Stephen, you’re a complete piece of shit.

"The American people are capable of turning the tide against repression even if that feels hopeless...the history of the first red scare teaches us that a better future is possible and worth fighting for." Nice @davidrlurie.bsky.social historical meditation here: www.publicnotice.co/p/emma-goldm...

(Trump-appointed judge btw)

Where are our national Democratic leaders? They should be raising hell in the streets.

Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation. This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.

As protesters demonstrated outside the Broadview ICE facility near Chicago Friday, federal agents with a rifle mounted onto a sniper tripod lingered above them. Chicago City Council member Ald. Michael Rodriguez said the gun shows that Donald Trump's government views protesters as a "target."

According to eyewitnesses, armed ICE agents dragged kids out of their beds in the middle of the night, zip tied them and put them in rented vans while raiding an * entire apartment building* on the South Side of Chicago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOXO...

Excellent advice.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

PLAYBOOK: “.. Fine dining on the first night of a government shutdown? Those Democratic attack lines almost write themselves.” @politico.com www.politico.com/newsletters/...

Straight up: I’m not onboard with farmers getting another bailout when so many voted for Trump two and three times. But what Trump is doing to them is brutal. I want to believe they’ve learned their lesson this time, but I don’t. Watch all the way through.

LOL

The biggest tell is when they attack you for asking a perfectly reasonable question on a matter of ethics and conflict of interest.

1. How would an ER patient know another patient’s immigration status? They wouldn’t. 2. What kind person wants medical care denied to another human based on immigration status? (I know, I know, a Republican). 3. Hospitals are required to provide emergency care to all patients.

Treat the president’s statements seriously, as he intends far more severe consequences than this.

💰

I've been saying this for two weeks! AOC: Trump is weaker than he looks. They double down in public to overcompensate for it. They rely on the 'perception' of strength. They rely on the 'perception' of inevitability. They want you to give up! We can't give up. We have to be their consequence."

WHATEVER YOU DO, REMEMBER NOT TO CALL THE PRESIDENT A FASCIST THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

The alleged shooter in Michigan. Weird that Vance and Patel haven’t tweeted out this info. 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽 www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...
