“One morally vacant aristocrat could not have accomplished today on his own. Everyone who was supposed to protect [us] from this failed in unforgivable ways … Every institution you may have believed had value revealed itself to be for-sale or out-to-lunch.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The Legacy Museum, which is “perhaps the closest thing America has to a national slavery museum,” is free from government control and displays the “history that the Trump administration aims to de-emphasize—if not outright erase,” @clintsmithiii.bsky.social argues.

I reviewed 6,000 Trump Truth Social posts picking out more than 500 promises or plans he proposed. Here are some of the ones that never amounted to anything. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

An instant classic. 🤡

Four GOP Senators. At most four Repubs in the House. Together they could stop nearly all the mad-king's rampages. They would be known to history as Profiles in Courage. They might/would lose the next election. But people have sacrificed a lot more, for a lot less.

Some of yall have relatives in ICE and BP. You call them. Tell them they're not a part of the family anymore. Make sure they understand.

Congress can stop ICE. Congress can block the use of force in Greenland. In other words, in this crisis, Congress can act to support civil liberties at home and free nations abroad. To fail to act would be to be complicit in a dreadful outcome.

This is getting ridiculous what with everyone handing him awards now

I'll say again that this is little different from the gestapo going door to door rounding up Jews.

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

This seems legit. Totally normal government response

@radiofreetom.bsky.social I'm curious if you have read Walter Streek's 'Taking Back Control.' If so, do you have any thoughts on it? I'm only a few chapters in but its discussion about the interplay between national sovereignty and globalization is fascinating.

just a reminder of the initial, in the moment, right wing reaction to jan 6 my favorite is greg gutfeld saying republican condemnation of the jan 6 rioters is an example of their moral superiority over the left www.mediamatters.org/media/4018641

"only the best people"

“January 6 was a disgrace. American citizens attacked their own government. They used terrorism to try to stop a specific piece of domestic business they did not like.” Mitch McConnell said that—& then he turned around and disgracefully voted for Trump’s acquittal. open.substack.com/pub/america/...

Ah yes, January 6th, the day we celebrate no consequences for our actions
