Unfortuantely as we learned when Medhi Hasan appeared on "Surrounded", there is an entire generation of young people who could give a shit about democracy or freedom. They think fascism is cool--and will only hurt the people they hate. We're now seeing the children of parents who watch FOX News.

“Israel assassinated a Pulitzer prize-winning journalist, a young man who had suddenly become the face and voice of the desperate people of his homeland, Gaza…The military made no attempt to obscure this brazen strike on civilians, which is a war crime.”

For Zeteo, @kimwehle.bsky.social points out how the Founders and the Constitution itself weren’t prepared for a Trump:

@velshi.com I used to respect conservatives, but now I realize their mindset has brought us to the BUB. They're obsessed with cutting gov't spending on the backs of the poor to solve the deficit. Biden's tax plan didn't raise taxes on the middle class. It's right wing propaganda.

RFK Jr. gutted the CDC’s vaccine board. @ashishkjha.bsky.social says states, medical orgs, and lawmakers must step up to protect coverage and trust. Public health needs strong leadership now more than ever. zurl.co/5XZct

Elect a criminal, and you better expect some crimes, much like clowns and circus. www.rawstory.com/donald-trump...

“One more question, sir. You wrote a book about the former president's cognitive issues, but the current president posted that the former president was executed in 2020 and replaced by a mindless, soulless robot with cancer. What am I missing here?”

Wow, this one Fox actually covered. But let’s see whether this gets any run on their network instead of just the website.

SERIOUS QUESTION: What is going on with all these “officers” in tactical gear for a routine traffic stop—with no clear identification? They seem like imposters. And what’s up with that ball cap?

This week, I confronted masked ICE officers detaining immigrants during routine court appearances, led a bipartisan effort to protect federal judges from doxxing threats, and organized a walkthrough of the Red Hook Houses’ post-Sandy resiliency project with NYCHA officials.

"By hitting Trump with TACO over and over, you (a) reveal his pull-backs as weakness and (b) dare him to go through with the stuff that will screw up the real world—and, in theory, create pain for his movement."

NEW VIDEO: Here is my breakdown of the major voting rights lawsuits to keep an eye on in court this week. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nJx...

"If what you're doing is legitimate and lawful, why do you need to cover your face?”

"If you’re among the vast sea of Americans who remain enthusiastically grateful for vaccines, the time for pushing back against Kennedy isn’t later, when he’ll likely be ratcheting up his program to 'reevaluate' longstanding pediatric vaccines."

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

We're now in the 2025 Atlantic Hurricane season. What to know: 1. This season is expected to be a bad one 2. Get your supplies NOW 3. Make your plans NOW I've been on body search duty after bad hurricanes. Don't be a name on a list someone has to cross off.

The entire point.

“He drove all over Texas, goading, questioning, preaching, writing ‘red hot’ stories and smash-mouth editorials, trying to sell Texas Observer subscriptions ... and hoping to awaken the masses to how shoddily they were being served by most of their alleged representatives.”

Trump has built a PARDON PIPELINE to the White House now facilitated by his lackey: newly appointed Pardon Attorney, Ed Martin. Just how low can Trump go? Oh, it's bad. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROtJ...

Do us all a favor… Stop clicking on stories about the current Oval Office occupant, unless it’s real news you’ll benefit from knowing about. The Outrage Machine that promotes his most recent stupidity is just click bait. It distracts from the important stuff. It’s his ego food. Eyes on the prize!

Yes they will.

“We must take climate action,” he said. “1.5C is not inevitable.” Uhhm...yes it is www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Oh for the good old days when every editorial board in America LOUDLY demanded the Clintons shut down their charitable organization for fear it would be used to curry favor w/Hillary if she became President 🙃

Today is the anniversary of the horrific Uvalde school shooting that took the lives of 21 people, 19 of whom were kids. After Uvalde, Dems passed the 1st gun safety legislation in 30 years, though much more needs to be done. The GOP is trying to roll it back—choosing the gun lobby over our kids.

Last night was the largest air and drone attack on Ukraine against civilian targets by Russia of the war. They are desperate...why? Because they are LOSING: www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvVI...

Anyone collating a book of his gaffs? Will be a bestseller!

Sooo. Apparently that asshole has been using the threat of tariffs to extort countries into cutting massive deals with Felon’s companies. And why not? He got away with extortion last time thanks to Mitch McConnell and Merrick Garland.

Academic freedom in the United States has found itself periodically under siege, but the current attacks from the federal government raise a new level of alarm. nyer.cm/u405qvQ

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

@kirstengillibrand.bsky.social You are my Senator. Can never get an answer on your phone line.

Why doesn't the DNC have a bluesky account. With Sen Gallego, Gillibrand supporting for the Genius Act, we need David Hogg's activism. Democratic Party needs to change.

@gallego.senate.gov Seriously disappointed in you and my senator @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social

Reuben Gallego thinks this is good

Just emailed Mark Kelly and Reuben Gallego.

The thing about Trump bashing Swift and Springsteen is Republicans are trying to cut Medicaid. Don’t let them distract you.

James Comey validated my core belief about him: he's clueless. The only reason he held that fatal press conference in 2016 is because he's a misogynist. He would've never done that to a male candidate. The '86' in crime movies always means terminate in the lethal sense. Blame Hollywood!
