"'History’s eyes are on the Supreme Court,' she said. 'This court will have to decide, is it going to be the court that puts an end to American democracy as we know it'..." www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Love this for her.

Reading Limitarianism: The Case Against Extreme Wealth, by Ingrid Robeyns. This book feels like coming home to my people. If I had made a drinking game out of agreeing with this book I'd be deeeeeep in my cups and I'm only on chapter 3.

There is no amount of safety you can purchase for yourself under fascism. None. There is no security you can procure for yourself, your institution, your endowment from a would-be tyrant. NONE. Only fools believe otherwise.

Add Northwestern to the lists of universities bending the knee. Far too many institutions of higher learning are run by cowards who don't bother to consult their own History and Poli Sci Depts before betraying their own students and democracy in order to bow to a fascist.

Trump’s DHS has diverted thousands of federal agents away from investigating sexual crimes to work on the administration’s cruel mass deportation agenda. They are ignoring kids being trafficked so they can go after immigrant families.

TPUBLICAN is perfect if the "T" stands for TRAITOR.

“What I want to do is this. I just want to find, uh, 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state."

I hate it here so much.

I agree with @ezralevin.bsky.social the Surrender Dems didn't fight for our healthcare. They won't fight to defend the results of the midterms when the fascist GOP will falsely claim they won in a classic autocratic move. They will roll over. Again and again and again. So what do we do?

Maybe it’s a bad idea to put people in charge of government who are eager for the rapture.

Renewables routinely generate more than half of U.K electricity. They also generate thousands of jobs, reduce our exposure to volatile gas prices, and allow us to stick two fingers up to fossil-fueled dictators. Leadership is knowing the way, showing the way, AND going the way…🇬🇧♻️⚡️👷👩‍🔧

All the regime has is bullying, threats, and intimidation. MAGA is a cult of grievance, retribution, and coercive control. This is not a legitimate government.

🚨 BREAKING: It’s being reported that the CDC in the US is ending its experiments on monkeys! Approximately 200 macaques currently used in harmful research will be affected; future research on primates will also be discontinued. 🐵 🙌🏼

Are we great yet?

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone. Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work. Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

Cobbled alley in Kyoto, Japan. ’The Path of Nene’ is the actual name of the main cobbled street to which this narrow path leads to.

Impeachment isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent. Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...

Are those "MANY GREAT LEGAL SCHOLARS" in the room with you right now, Piggy?

Someday you will have to reckon with the fact that we got trump twice because dems are the status quo party, they have become the conservatives. They dug up biden to stop the progressive wing of the party's momentum and to stop the american people getting nice things so their corporate donors could.

Well, this is the foundation of the MAGA movement. Without political pastors’ help, there is never a President Trump.

I filed my claim.

This is just theater for MAGA. If Trump REALLY wanted the Epstein Files released, he doesn't need Congress. He could just call Pam Bondi and order her to release them. He hasn't. And won't. He and Pam have cooked up a new "ongoing investigation" that she can use as an excuse not to release evidence.

They are confident that the files will not be released because of an "open DOJ investigation" which is why they are agreeing to vote yes, not because they had a change of heart.

‼️Only the most corrupt and incompetent goons are implementing Trump’s revenge agenda.

I’m not a lawyer but I’m pretty sure you’re not allowed to tell the jury to “vote assuming we actually have a whole bunch more secret evidence”

Great news. This is what an ICE agent looks like in a mugshot. Meet Gerardo Rodriguez, 45, of Temecula, courtesy of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office. Arrested for "illegally detaining a minor at gunpoint while off duty last week." 🧵

Let’s be clear: The DOJ has already been subpoenaed. They’re legally obligated to release the full Epstein files—and they’re still dragging their feet. It’s a shame we’ve even gotten to the point of needing a discharge petition. (1/2)

The truth will have its day. That day is now. Release all the Epstein files.

This is me at 15. I’m a child. I’m a CHILD.

Ive been working on this iris painting for a few weeks now but only managing an hour or so per day due to an ongoing back issue. So heres where im at with it at the moment. #iris #botanicalart #art #artist #flower #oilpainting

Look around.

That is not true at all. 20 year vet. I was a trainer for my squadron and taught Law of Armed Conflict and Geneva Convention and UCMJ and all that stuff. What they are telling the troops are lies and illegal orders. At least some of them are asking…

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has stated that the US air strikes on “alleged” drug smuggling boats will be treated under international law as crimes against humanity.

This is why we need fighters in the Dems real bad. GOP + Tr*mp are going to claim they didn't lose in a landslide when voters in the midterms obliterate them. We need Dems who will meet the moment and fight to defend election results. Surrender Dems will cost us more than the ACA.

Morning.

When we say "every accusation is a confession"... It's really clear now how much Pizza Gate was a confession re: Epstein Files.
