Trump just threatened to sue ABC again for allowing Jimmy Kimmel back on the air, which is SUPER weird, because all of these Republicans said that the decision to pull Kimmel’s show was a “business decision.”

@abdulelsayed.bsky.social: "All of them know what [Trump's] saying is ridiculous. Not one of them had the presence of mind to be like, dude you are one dumb motherfucker... Part of me is like, when do we say the emperor has no clothes?"

@abdulelsayed.bsky.social: "The president and HHS Secretary... literally just tried to tell us the most ridiculous shit and expect us to believe it... All of the stuff coming out of this administration is built for the narcissistic consumption of a very, very, very small headed man."

"But the foundation of this industry is rooted in our right to free speech. And if ABC is going to be complicit in Trump’s effort to curb that right, then that puts the whole industry at risk. It puts all of America at risk."

Priorities.

Vote with your dollars.

There goes the First Amendment.

So much free speech.

See ya, Hulu.

Hiding the truth.

NEW VIDEO: Brian Tyler Cohen joins us to reveal why the right-wing media machine is so effective, what Democrats still don’t understand about influencers, and how new media will decide the 2028 elections. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKRB...

@briantylercohen.bsky.social: How do you plan to build a winning coalition? Talarico: We’ve got to do things very differently as Democrats. That’s why I went on Rogan. That’s why I broke quorum. That’s how I flipped a Trump district. That’s how we’ll finally break through in Texas

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "I got elected in 2018 by flipping a Trump district. It was a district no one thought was winnable... I won with 51% of the vote. I want to take that playbook of running aggressively, of using unorthodox campaign tactics to be able to finally break through in Texas."

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "Politics is not really left versus right. It's much more top versus bottom. And so many of the people who voted for Donald Trump here in Texas... are suddenly realizing that they've been conned."

Great news.

Pettiest man alive.

Priorities.

There has not been one single Republican administration in my lifetime that's created more jobs than a Democratic administration. Since I've been alive.

So much greatness.

Another miserable jobs report. Only 22,000 jobs added, well below expectations of 75,000. Unemployment rate rises to 4.3%. Hope Trump’s new BLS statistician didn’t get too comfortable.

Way to go, MAGA.

Second Amendment for me but not for thee.

More of this.

Deploying the military against Americans.

“Stop talking about that time we did a insurrection”

"All you guys want to do is bring up the time the sitting President fomented an insurrection in order to ignore the results of a national election and remain in power"...🖕

They aren't getting paid by Russia unlike rightwing "influencers." I don't have a problem with folks on the left finally getting some support so they can fight back. This shit isn't free when you commit to it as more than a full time job.

California stepping up.

"Nobody wants to be a cop [in DC]. They were abused. They were spit on." "When you when you say they were abused and spit on, I'm assuming you're talking about January 6th, correct?" "All you guys want to do was bring up J6 about the answer to everything."

"The straw man being put forward is that it's either we have the military or we're going to get our throats cut at night in DC. Is there no middle ground? Do local law enforcement account for nothing? We've got the National Guard GARDENING right now in DC. Is that an efficient use of our resources?"

If Missouri Republicans mid-cycle redistrict and break the law, they will be sued. That is a promise and I don't bluff. Just ask Texas. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Disgraceful.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social is helping newer influencers. I’m a journalist not an influencer although the line between the two can get blurry sometimes. Cohen could just build his own empire but he’s helping others build their own. There’s absolutely nothing unethical about that.

Some people have questions about the creator scholarship program I co-founded, Chorus, so let’s talk about it. wearechorus.com Apologies for posting a Twitter link; the vid was too long to share natively. x.com/briantylerco...

"Marc Elias’s Democracy Docket has quietly become a pro-democracy media force, expanding its newsroom to 20 staffers as it surpasses 50,000 paid subscribers." Story here: www.status.news/p/democracy-...

Here he goes.

Thanks to all of you, Democracy Docket has crossed 500,000 YouTube subscribers!🥳 www.youtube.com/democracydoc...

Iowa tonight is exactly why Republicans are redrawing their maps.

Breaking: Democrat Catelin Drey just won an Iowa Senate district that Trump won by double digits last year, flipping the seat blue. Republican just lost their supermajority in the chamber.

Graham Platner: "If we are going to build a political system that represents working people, we need to send up working people... When working people organize and fight together, they can build power, and they can use that to get the things that they deserve."

Graham Platner: "Susan Collins has been in the Senate for almost 30 years... People know that she's a self-interested politician who has tried to play this charade for many years about how she tries to be a moderate... Everybody sees this for what it is."

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social signals NJ will fight back in Trump's map fight: "What I think Trump is looking to do is create an unwinnable map... We're going to have to use the power we have to fight back against that. And that includes all of the tools we have to ensure we're standing up strongly."

“Transparent”

Last week Trump said he likes the idea of starting a war so he can declare “no more elections” and stay in office forever. Today he just said “a lot of people” want “a dictator.” See where this is going?

Trump’s militarization of Los Angeles seems to have been just the start of an authoritarian takeover of American cities. This is not leadership. This is a scary, unlawful grab for power, and we should all be deeply concerned.

BREAKING: @marcelias.bsky.social's law firm is seeking a preliminary injunction to prevent Texas' map (which violates the Voting Rights Act) from going into effect once signed into law by Abbott

🚨BREAKING: One day after Texas passed its new map, my law firm, in partnership with @redistrictfdn.bsky.social, has filed a motion for a preliminary injunction seeking to block the use of the new congressional map for the 2026 election. www.democracydocket.com/cases/texas-...

Was it "lawfare" to indict Trump for blocking Congress' certification of the 2020 election, something which Piers himself said Trump was "guilty as sin" of doing?

It’s spreading.
