Honestly the only reason I would bail them out is because if they fail then some bigger farm Corp will just buy them out cheap and we will end up with worse concentration of markets and power.

There is a secret in the 25th amendment. It defines the default method of removal...via the cabinet...BUT is also allows for congress to establish a different methodology. Nothing stopping congress from establishing an apolitical board who can invoke it as well.

This is like if Palpatine had made Anakin Skywalker the head of the Jedi. "...you lightsaber people and float things for a living" 😆

This is where the Dems are and where we have to go through. But remember there are massacres after this. It doesn't get better until there is enough pain inflicted that the people stand against the fascists. Lets just hope it doesn't come down to some farm kid's supernatural aim.

So how do we ensure that the White House kitchen, electricity, and water all get shutdown? Also let's shutdown Air Force One.

Damn. Luddites Unite! 😆

The GOP has the votes. They want the pain. They want the chaos.

Ding fucking ding.

Yes I SO want to understand the legal reasoning behind why the Fed is somehow different than the other independent agencies they've let be destroyed. Obviously the Fed underpins their donors and friends and the wealthy circles they enjoy so that's the actual reason.

This should be everywhere.

I found this pretty persuasive. Maybe there's some evidence of real harm from the current regulatory status quo but doesn't really seem to be. www.joshbarro.com/p/this-is-th...

When the economic and wealth concentration gets to such a point that our metrics are meaningless. If 5 men moved out of the US and we would look like we were in a depression...that's a big problem.

Trump can't stop being the center of attention long enough to not take the blame.

Gotta keep it 💯. I have been led to this point. A gov shutdown is going to be painful, but Dems can't give votes to this unlawful admin. They don't abide by what's in the budget anyway. The pain must be felt by the American People. We elected this.

There's a Senate rule that says you need 60 votes. And another Senate rule that says 51 votes can change that at any time. The US Senate is simple majority rule whenever the majority wants it to be. Why must we pretend that's not the case?

Dems need the GOP to nuke the filibuster (or reform it to an appropriate tool anyway). Dems will NEVER have enough members who will nuke it themselves. And it needs to be done away with. Elections matter.

Damn.... She maybe takes one pause that entire time. 😆

Everyone posting this picture knows they're getting this man fired right?

Wow. You've never seen a judicial opinion like this. A Reagan-appointed federal judge has ruled against Trump's policy re: ideological deportation. And he has used the opinion to teach Americans about Trump and the law—with great clarity, humor, and grace. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump will cut a deal with them. Trump gets fealty and a paramilitary. They get to do whatever they want.

Are you happy now bluesky!!!!??? Dems are pushing back on this exact issue...so please stop posting asking why they aren't.

My fellow Dems. This tweet is a dunk on Klein. But it also illustrates why the left is losing normal dudes. Klein (now cast from the tribe) makes some Ricky and Morty comparison and now he's an idiot...just like all those other mouth breathers.

Well Dems governors...it may be time to start considering a well regulated militia of ordinary citizens...and I'm not talking about the Guard, who can be nationalized at a moments notice. Dem citizens...might be time to utilize that 2nd amendment right to arm yourselves.

Next Dem president needs to ensure that military bases are not predominantly located in Southern states. There needs to be a balance of where bases are and where we've recruited our soldiers.

This is Trump and his people's (mostly white dudes but not exclusive) entire issue... "We shouldn't be held accountable for our fuck ups." ...accidentally rape a woman? A kid? Bankrupt a company? Make bad deals? ...my entire career/life shouldn't be ruined!!!!

This shit has to be stopped. A President can't leverage tariffs to make side deals with private companies to create politically branded services to "solve" the problems he created. This is fucking ridiculous and has to be illegal. @thebulwark.com @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social @jvl.bsky.social

A tired, stupid fool. He's rambling (as always) and slurring (worse than usual) as he talks to the assembled generals and senior enlisted advisors. www.c-span.org/event/white-...

"If you have body cams...turn them off." ????

As bad as it would be, I think the only way may be to force Trump and the GOP to feel the pain of a gov shutdown. Or make the Senate GOP finally nuke the filibuster and we can get on with it.

Clear separation of civilian law enforcement and military would be a great idea.

Random post on my TL. Read the article and...man we are cooked aren't we? Windiest place and they're like "naw...all that clean energy is an eye sore, so we're just gonna stop doing that and go back to farming."

people are exaggerating when they call this fascist, but there is something to both the far right and far left turning against the bureaucratic-rational state, and basically nothing good can ever happen again until we are able to mount a vigorous defense of it

So on bluesky my TL is filled with the particulars of the Michigan shooter's ID, pics, the flag waving truck... ...yet on X checking the hot news of the shooting...there is nary a image of the man to be seen. People literally tweeting 3 min ago about it being Muslims, etc. The algorithm is wild.

Democrats should never vote to fund a government that's waging war on its own citizens and firing officials *because* they insist on following court orders instead of breaking the law. Let Senate Republicans nuke the filibuster. None of this is normal and it shouldn't be treated as such.

This is where Dems need to aim...especially if they gain back power in 2026. Trump isn't doing this shit himself. It's the wackos around him. Go after the Cabinet. Go after the heads of FCC, etc. Go after Miller. Hack away until he and Vance are alone.

He’s bankrupting our country like he did his casinos.

I'm pretty close to the attitude of: if your county voted for Trump you are on your own. You don't get to benefit from programs you are actively voting against. Similar to how immigrants were bussed to NY and all of the sudden blue state leaders were like "holy shit it IS a pain in the ass!"

They tried this. It failed miserably. www.npr.org/sections/the...

What does this even mean? A couple million people should match on DC and remove Trump bodily from office? Armed revolution? What magical action is going to stop Trump?

Who else do we know who has unreleased files and died mysteriously???? 🤔🤔🤔

Seems to me any next President can just declare a national security emergency around TikTok and do whatever it wants...shut it down, nationalize it, whatever.

Pretty sure this can kill large swaths of his support. Any older Americans...fitness folks on GLP1s...all kinds of people use brand medicines.

One reason to hope he peacefully passes away suddenly in office.

Sounds like some @profgalloway.com shit! 😄

Naw man, making money IS the American Dream according to Trump and his billionaires. They don't believe in white collar corruption.

Assuming this wasn't purposeful...this is the result of breaking the federal government. You get more screw ups. You have unqualified people trying tk hold the institutions together. This won't be the last error we see coming out of the fed gov in the next 4+ years. Dems need a plan to renew gov.

If we’re renaming departments and calling the DOD the “Department of War”, we might as well go ahead and make the DOJ the “Department of Revenge”

Oh don't worry, once Vance and Miller see it, thay guy will be rehired as a Director and those who fired him will be fired themselves as weak as pussies.
