Jack Smith: "I think we are facing an attack on the rule of law that is different in kind and scope to anything I've seen in my lifetime"

Newsom: Across the spectrum, this guy is failing and increasingly flailing. It’s self-evident—the decline from a physical, emotional, and cognitive perspective. But the power that he continues to wield is real, and we have to, again, be absolutely mindful that the worst is yet to come.

They are arresting U.S. Air Force Officers for free speech and U.S. Olympians for curiosity—but not rich men for raping children with Jeffrey Epstein.

I’m SO proud to call USAF member Jason Watson a friend of mine. He was arrested yesterday for protesting in his uniform against the administration. Bravo sir. #Impeach #Convict #Remove.

I’m not going to hail Barrett and Roberts for allowing us to count our votes. It’s a huge win for democracy, but it shouldn’t have even been a question. That we were one vote away from disenfranchising votes is all the more reason to expand the court in 2029.

What the heck is going on here? ABC7 is my local station. It isn’t a partisan network, it’s where millions of Angelenos get local news and alerts. So why is the FCC putting its broadcast license under an unusually early review years before it was due? @agomezfcc.bsky.social

Everybody is also fully aware that weapons inspections were part of the deal Obama struck with Iran in 2015, which you tore up in 2018. These last 8 years without inspection are your fault, so there’s no credit or praise for reinstating them. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Brilliant!!!!!!!!!! Share, share, share….

Best Twitter riposte of the day.

Remember when we had a President who loved his dog

Love these classy, beautiful, intelligent and kind people.

I love how he keeps writing the best campaign ads... for the Democratic Party! Coming Soon: 🌊

As a reader, I love libraries! I can't afford every single book that I read in a year. And I'm avoiding major retailers like Amazon/B&N when I can. So the library is great! Ebooks, audiobooks, and visits for physical copies. My Libby/Hoopla always has something borrowed at any moment.

@schumer.senate.gov Apathetic Leadership let’s this slide?

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

Shoutout to every single BLUE dot 🔵 in deep RED states 🟥. Your vote carries outsized power — and it’s making a real difference. Thank you for fighting where it matters most. You’re true heroes. We see you. We appreciate you. Keep showing up! 💙 #VoteBlue

me!

What's happening to CBS News is what the tech oligarchs call "parallel" strategy. Buy an existing institution, gut it, and convert it into a right-wing zombie version of itself. They are doing this to media, government, education, biotech, defense tech, etc. Some call it the "Network State."

Talarico: Ken Paxton embodies everything that’s wrong with our political system. He was impeached by his own party for using his public office to enrich himself and his donors at our expense. And that kind of corruption is the rot at the core of this broken system.

There's hope for us yet.

I've long wondered about that.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.  He embodies the broken system we’re running against. It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton

They lie. They cheat. They profit. I'm fighting to ban members of Congress AND the president from trading stocks, because no one should be profiting off the backs of the people they were elected to serve.

Truth

The DOJ dropped misdemeanor charges against anti-ICE protesters, admitting it used improper tactics to secure the indictment. Kat Abughazaleh, one protester and former Democratic congressional candidate, said the administration's attempts to silence them are "not going to work.”

Adjudicated rapist says what?

This New Yorker cartoon is accurate but a gut punch.

MeidasTouch: What do you make of this $1.776 billion fund— Gavin Newsom: It’s a criminal enterprise. It’s not just corruption, it’s not just graft, it’s a full-on criminal enterprise and it needs to be shut down.

It’s amazing the difference between how some Republicans speak 5 minutes after their political careers are over compared to the time when they wanted the cult leader to love them.

. The king no longer pays taxes. If there was ANY doubt that the U.S. IS NOW A FULL-BLOWN DICTATORSHIP, it’s gone now. The BIG, BEAUTIFUL FIGHT IS COMING. It’s time to prepare. Are you a COWARD or an AMERICAN…

I miss having a President of the United States.

He Should Be Arrested Immediately For a Lot of Reasons….

Thanks, Supreme Court. You're waking up the majority and radicalizing us. You're becoming more illegitimate by the day. Bring it.
