It’s incredible how much of modern life is people denying they broke the law, then slowly admitting they broke the law, but by then no one cares and we just move on, letting them break the law with no consequences.

The delta between “what AI backers promise AI will do” and “what it actually does” is giant and horrifying.

Next time you find yourself in a discussion about the differences between liberals, leftists, democratic socialists, moderates, progressives, and never trumpers, remember: billionaires don't give a fuck. We're all the same to them: human capitol stock. And they love it when we fight each other.

Imagine thinking that it's a dunk on lawmakers to make them feel uncomfortable about alluding to violating the 22nd Amendment. America is just an absolute crazytown.

If they claim they haven't heard the quote, play it for them and ask for a response. If they claim it's being taken out of context, play a longer version and ask for a response. If they try to sidestep the issue, play it over again and ask for a response.

Keep us updated on the proof that Qatar, Iran, etc is financing American protestors of Trump.

Saying you can be put in prison for calling people fascists is literally fascism.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

"How dare this former National Guard major" my god

Dear @apnews.com The republicans control congress. Democrats did not vote down anything. If the GOP wanted to fund the government, they could have changed the rules to pass a CR with a simple majority like they did 11 days ago to approve 48 trump appointees at once. Fix your headline.

If we weren’t also told they would be sending the military, led by someone who thinks their whole job is to ‘kill and destroy,’ into domestic blue cities, this would be the bombshell of today’s meeting.

I’m still processing what happened this morning. Is it now the administration’s position that the U.S. military does not observe or adhere to the laws of war?

I would add that Trump, who is unfathomably stupid, benefits immensely from the unfathomable stupidity of the American public.

You realize our Commander in Chief is a dementia patient and his top lieutenant is an ignorant jackass. Now you're left to mingle with your compatriots before flying back and returning to your positions. I can't imagine what that feels like. I think it's unimaginable.

Trump wraps up a speech to military leaders that represented a major escalation of his effort to weaponize the armed forces into a tool he can use to violently quash domestic dissent. Hard to imagine how anyone with a shred of dignity can keep serving after this, which of course is the point.

The moment where Hegseth ends his speech and not a single officer claps is the most hopeful thing I have seen in a long time.

Forcing all those generals to witness how amateurish and foolish both Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are firsthand might increase the chances of illegal orders being ignored in the future.

Hegseth: The military is for killing people and breaking things. No more rules of engagement. Trump: I’ll be sending the military into U.S. cities.

Trump told military leaders to join his war against the "enemy from within," released a video calling Democrats "woke pieces of shit," sent armed masked ICE agents to Chicago and vowed to send troops to Portland. How have Dem leaders in Congress responded? Trying to make a budget deal with Trump

In a sane country with competent leadership, the 50 highest-ranking Democrats would call a press conference to denounce what just happened as a threat to the republic and demand Trump's immediate impeachment and removal from office. I don't know he could make his intentions more clear.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

FEMA is a guy with the iPhone weather app periodically googling "why can't you spin the tornadoes the other way"

I’m becoming more and more concerned that people at high levels of public discussion cannot identify the difference between a genuinely viral conversation vs a bunch of bots making noise.

God, I hope this is true 🤣 “You have until Wednesday to swear her (Adelita Grijalva) in…or I will release your Grindr profile and your IP address. I bring receipts, bitch!” RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

"Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians." "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians." "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians." "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians."

I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".

Right on the prediction. Right about the reaction.

David Cross folks.

There is no other way out, if we even get the chance

I guess that oath they wanted reporters to sign promising not to report stuff that wasn’t authorized didn’t go anywhere.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

They need to call ICE on Hurricane Humberto

This right here is what Bibi really wanted out of this deal. Hamas will not agree, and then Bibi will have Donald's full blessing to level the last remaining bits of Gaza.

Pepperidge Farms remembers

It is important to see this sort of straight talking, precisely because of the executive order last week that conflated criticism of the government with terrorism.

Conservative Republican U.S. Senator & nominee for POTUS in 1964.

Since every Republican in Congress is repeating their false talking point over & over that “Democrats want to shut down the govt to give free healthcare to illegal aliens,” it would be helpful if some Democrats in Congress could address that argument with facts at some point.

The crowd was a perfect representation of who we really are as a country now.

Good for Watson. Words that should have come from Trump since he was there the first day. But this is the kind of behavior he encourages.

My thesis is that no matter how doomer you were in Nov. 2024, we're probably past your worst-case scenario for the first 9 months of this administration. It's very strange for me to realize I wasn't pessimistic enough. www.thebulwark.com/p/we-are-in-...

The only game Dems should be focusing on.

Southwest Airlines Rolls Out New 'Loyalty Goes Both Ways' Campaign

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

This is true.

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

Harrison Butker just went left

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social You are praising a conman in your own party while simultaneously saying you will fight the conman in The White House. The former is why no one believes you on the later.
