Still kinda bothered that our president is calling for the execution of folk in Congress who served in the military for encouraging folk to defend the constitution. I can't remember the last time a president did this and I've been around for a while.

Lib Dem leader Edward Davey calls for a national investigation into Russian political interference in British politics: "Given Reform won't, he must. So will he know launch a national investigation into Russian infiltration into our politics?" Starmer: "Reform is riddled with pro-Putin propaganda"

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Mark Kelly: "The message he sent a couple days ago was he declared that loyalty to the Constitution is now punishable by death. Those are serious words coming from the president. He's trying to intimidate us. But I'm not going to be intimidated."

Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

Too mean? 🤷🏼‍♂️

The British press doesn’t mince words. 🇬🇧

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

you are missing incredible things on X

"My truth"

Kamala Harris: It is about reminding folks that we refuse to kneel at the foot of a tyrant. That's not what we do. We stand for the principles upon which our nation was founded. We believe in the power of the vote, and we are prepared when necessary to fight fire with fire.

Donald Trump… “They cheated on a commercial. Ronald Reagan loved tariffs and they said he didn't. It was AI or something. They cheated badly. Canada got caught cheating on a commercial.”

Send troops to San Francisco and we will sue you.

Jeffries: "Republicans are the party of lawlessness and disorder, including the ongoing crime scene at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave which is running the largest pay to play scheme in the history of the country in real time. And we hear nothing but crickets from Mike Johnson."

I’m disgusted by the photos of Ttump’s demolition at the East Wing, but I’m even more sickened by the renderings of his mar-a-lago ballroom dwarfing our White House. Once we’re rid of this despicable man, that ballroom must also be removed.

Cancel SPOTIFY. They are running ICE ads. F them. www.snopes.com/fact-check/s...

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

Karoline Leavitt is a complete disgrace. Her violent and unhinged rhetoric is going to get someone killed. These extremists are sick people.

Stand strong and stay safe, Portland. 💙🐸 #FuckICE

Grijalva: The frustration for me is that it seems as if Speaker Johnson is not willing to swear me in because our politics are a little different, or because I’m going to be the 218th signer—he can just continue to drag this along with no end in sight. That is not a foundation of our democracy.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files. But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

Chicago priest Father Michael Pfleger: "The state of emergency is in AMERICA, not Chicago. It's birthed from this president and his admin's reign of terror." ( ht: @mikenellis.bsky.social )

Republicans are lying to the American people about the government shutdown. It's shameful and they know it.

“The statue, spray-painted bronze, appeared fully restored today, with only minor damage still apparent and Trump and Epstein’s hands once again clasped together…” www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

We've had fuckups in the White House before, but never a president who seemed so deliberately intent on being a fuckup. It's been said before, but if these people were actual agents of an enemy power seeking to divide, dismantle and destroy the USA they wouldn't be doing anything different.

Oh, that’s a good one.

This you, Trump?

Rieckhoff: A vet on CNN said we haven’t fought to win in 20 years. I said, I was fighting to win. You were fighting to win. Kander: That shit pisses me off. Rieckhoff: He said he meant the generals. Which one? It’s boogeymen—and now cosplay warriors who never served join ICE to bully immigrants.

Dean: The president is unhinged Johnson: A lot of folks on your side are too. I don’t control him Dean: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals. Johnson: I didn’t see it. Dean: Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing.

Deel even, zodat iedereen deze afgrondelijke kwaadaardigheid kan zien.

Oh man, wat is dit gênant.

Newsom: "People ask, 'Are you being hyperbolic?' Bullshit we're being hyperbolic. If you're Black or brown, it's here in this country. And so I'm deeply proud that I had the privilege of signing the nation's first bill to address masking ... these are authoritarian actions by an authoritarian govt"

Worst UN speech ever. Toxic, delusional, anti science & anti migration and immigration. Just brutal, and the planet looks at the US and says how can anyone with a brain or a spine vote/support this person?

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

LOST writer-producer Damon Lindelof says he won’t work with Disney unless Kimmel js reinstated. I’m hearing other talent weighing similar pledges.

Stephen Colbert: “Tonight we’re all Jimmy Kimmel…. With an autocrat, you can’t give an inch. If ABC thinks that this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive, and clearly they've never read The Children's Book If You Give a Mouse A Kimmel.”

It’s super bad to suggest someone is in hell, right, Republicans?

Walz: This is North Korea style stuff. And it's being done because this is a weak, thin skinned man who's failing as a president. All of the things he promised are not happening. It's a it's our most cherished freedom to point out very clearly, this is a terrible president

A man in Washington, DC, plays the Imperial March from Star Wars while following patrolling soldiers. One of the soldiers threatens to call the police.

The total number of deaths in the world, all the countries, from any cause, is about 65 million per year.

In a sane world, Fox host Brian Kilmeade would be fired and shunned for his depraved comments that homeless people should be euthanized. That’s sick (and deeply ignorant), but sicker still is that it’s tolerated.
