Please join me in congratulating Woman on her appointment

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white. Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace. That’s not making America great again.

MIKE JOHNSON: They want to give taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal aliens again CRAIG MELVIN: I had a hankering feeling you were going to bring that up. I actually did look at it. That's a bit misleading

I regret I can only like this post once.

fun thing to do would be project 2029 and we just lay out a plan to raise top marginal tax rates back to 1950’s levels of around 91% and for the democratic nominee to say nope not me and for the press to say candidates disavows project 2029 and then do it since the press is so fucking gullible

well they tried. but -

No it doesn’t, that’s you doing that

Hard to tell the real illegal militia from the fake illegal militia

"A lot of folks on your side are too" is both a deflection and, more critically, an admission. Plus "I did't see it" stops being an excuse when it's your JOB to be politically informed.

Jane Fonda relaunches the Committee for the First Amendment, a free speech initiative originally spearheaded by her father, Hollywood icon Henry Fonda, in response to the rise of “McCarthyism” during the 1940s.

If they claim they haven't heard the quote, play it for them and ask for a response. If they claim it's being taken out of context, play a longer version and ask for a response. If they try to sidestep the issue, play it over again and ask for a response.

Friendly reminder to please ignore your own lying eyes and ears. Speaker Johnson has confirmed that direct, videotaped quotes of Donald Trump are now just "characterizations." So glad we cleared that up.

There isn’t a reality in the multiverse where a black or brown person would be allowed to be as stupid as Trump shows us every single day.

Looks like he still doesn’t

This is Donald Trump’s shutdown.

EVERYBODY that can should be watching this www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrBY...

I love you, Bluesky.

See the difference? 👀

My latest in my fight against the Washington Post. I’ve filed a grievance against the Post through the WaPo Guild— and have sent a letter to Washington Post challenging my firing. Proud to have @normeisen.bsky.social + @katiephang.bsky.social in my corner. karenattiah.substack.com/p/the-washin...

absolute spaghetti reasoning. oh i'm absolved of individual morality by the atrocities other people entirely have committed.

For the generals yesterday, resistance meant total silence. And I thank them for it. But for the rest of us, silence is cowardice. Silence in the face of this daily onslaught against democracy, the rule of law, pluralism, the Constitution, and basic human decency is utter cowardice.

STEPHANOPOULOS: The Democratic proposal is designed to prevent millions of Americans from losing their health insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or paying higher healthcare premiums. Why are you against that? MIKE JOHNSON: That's an absurd statement STEPHANOPOULOS: It's a factual statement

"It appears that Donald Trump not only has dementia set in, but he's copying tactics of Vladimir Putin. Sending troops into cities, thinking that that's some sort of proving ground for war.. is just, frankly, inane and I'm concerned for his health" www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news...

This is very, very bad.

JUST IN: A U.S. citizen from Alabama who has been detained twice by ICE while working at a construction site, has filed a class action suit claiming ICE's broad warrantless arrest powers violate the constitution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

He's such a complicit little freak

Q: When he tried to hand you that Trump 2028 hat, what was your reaction? JEFFRIES: They just randomly appeared in the middle of the meeting on the desk. It was the strangest thing ever. I just looked at the hat, looked at JD Vance & said, 'Don't you got a problem with this?' He said, 'No comment.'

"This could have been an email!" To be fair, Hegseth’s attempts at electronic communication in the past have ended up with him telling classified information to spouses and journalists. If they let him talk to the generals and admirals via email, he’d probably cc Kim Jong Un’s daughter in on it.

Remember: Undocumented immigrants pay billions of dollars in taxes every year. They pay into government funded healthcare programs, but can't access them except in case of emergency. Emergency Medicaid spending accounted for less than 1% of total Medicaid spending in 2023.

HHS, SSA and DOI employees have all gotten a highly partisan email blaming Democrats for impending shutdown. From a quickly eyeballing they all appear to be identical. So clearly they come from the White House.

New IJ lawsuit filed today challenging ICE raids of construction sites, wherein ICE detains American citizens in AL, rejects their proof of citizenship, and holds them without PC. Worth a read, and more evidence of the wide gulf b/w what SCOTUS says is happening and what is actually happening.

Kegsbreath. Unqualified. Unprepared. Unfit for the position. AND THEY KNOW IT.

REALLY BAD.

I really do hope the phrase “Kavanaugh Stop” or “Kavanaugh Encounter” sticks.

Sarcasm? Bernie only cares about Bernie. He hasn’t done a damn thing in all his years in office.

I’ve been wishing terminal hemorrhoids for every American* castigating Schumer and Jeffries when Americans* put them completely out of power.
