Karoline needs anger management classes, psychological therapy, and a ball gag.

I have been busy but I am popping in here to state plainly that no Democrat should be voting to fund ICE. Have some damned guts and stand against this domestic terror force. #ICEOutForGood

Terrific new Trump, Inc branding campaign launched by climate scientist @jsmankin.bsky.social: “Trump’s greenhouse gas emissions will cause Trump’s heat waves, Trump’s droughts, Trump’s floods, and Trump’s wildfires.” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/12/c...

Do you understand that actions only follow investigations in the federal government?

The Church Committee's investigation into the crimes of the intelligence community is about as good a model as we have for the kind of investigation into the crimes of ICE and other agencies. This is really a must-read for understanding our own moment.

There's no reason for ICE agents to have guns. Nobody is shooting at them.

Agree 100%. Americans, and especially Dems in congress, need to stop pretending this is anything but a fascist takeover of our country and ACT ACCORDINGLY.

If DOJ can manufacture a perjury probe every time an independent official defies the president’s political wishes, oversight becomes a pretext and criminal law becomes a cudgel. #holdfast

Healthcare must be expensive in the US.They have a President in desperate and urgent need of help but they rather have the country and the planet go to pots before they give him the help he needs.It obviously can't be cured but one can give him some quality of life in his last days. A farm? Upstate?

Yellen says Powell probe 'extremely chilling' for Fed independence www.cnbc.com/2026/01/12/y...

Nikki Glaser calls out CBS News at the Golden Globes while it’s being broadcast on CBS. “And the award for Most Editing goes to CBS News. Yes, CBS News, America’s newest place to see B.S. News.”

Auchincloss: "When you have a badge & gun and you are interacting with a citizen who has committed no crime, the onus of responsibility is on you to exercise good judgment. Nobody watching that video will buy the argument that he had no other resort other than to shoot her in the face 3 times."

What can history teach us about what happens when a populist strongman with an idiosyncratic taste for low interest rates undermines central bank independence?

Looks like the regime has put JD in charge of bullshit.

Let us all stand with Chairman Powell.

Tillis is spot on. The Senate can't confirm a Trump toady to succeed Powell at the Fed. The rest of the game is now out in the open, and it doesn't end well.

This is America. To all the people who thought Trump and Ratpublican conservative values were wonderful - well here you go.

Trump can't outright fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell (SCOTUS said so in the MSPB/NLRB case), so he has to create "cause." That's what this investigation is about, as I mentioned here: bsky.app/profile/muel...

This is precisely how you should respond to a bullshit investigation. “This new threat is not about my testimony last June, or the renovation of the Federal Reserve Buildings… this is a consequence of not following the preference of the President”

Attempting to criminalize the actions of an independent public servant, Fed Chair Jay Powell, for the sin of acting independently is an outrage. It's bad economics, bad politics, bad for the rule of law, bad for the public sector, bad for American credibility and bad for Americans.

Yet another scandal that would have ended any other administration. Trump's salvation is that he's doing a hundred different things that would be huge scandals and impeachable offenses on their own, but pursued together they become a blob of vague criminality that's hard to tack down.

The Department of Justice has become the Department of Recriminations, and it would be terrible for the Federal Reserve to become the Federal Subserve. Congress didn't give Trump the power to run monetary policy, and it's up to Congress to ensure that he doesn't just steal it.

Don't doubt that Jay Powell is ready to lob back whatever grenades are thrown his way. I've never seen a central bank release an evening video so directly taking on a head of state. In this case, the medium is the message: Powell is taking his case to the people.

Catch up on everything economics, as my pal, mollyjongfast.bsky.social pushes me to drill down deep on all of it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDhQ...

Bob Weir was a true son of California who helped create the soundtrack of a generation. He was — and will always be — a king of psychedelic rock. Bob will be deeply missed, and his music will forever live on.

If they don't pursue public exposure of Trump's latest "GRIFT" then who will? Media? He owns Fox, Newsmax, NewsNation, Facebook, X & is working on ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN ... as the billionaires bow to their KING.

Everything is stupid. And dangerous.

An ICE agent saying "I don't care" and preventing an innocent woman who's been shot from receiving medical care are not the words or actions of officers lawfully protecting themselves and the community. These are the words of sociopaths happy with murder.

To those who are pro Hamas, please know this; I spent a week in Gaza in 2009. There are no kinder, more welcoming people anywhere. In 2007 Hamas was elected into power- Hamas has not permitted any election since. They dominate, brutalize & terrify the people. Hamas does not represent Gazas ppl.

I have some congresspeople who follow me, so I'll just throw this out there: As a taxpayer, I would actually prefer that you *not* continue to fund the fascist military machine that is being used to kill and kidnap people from our communities.

David Letterman: "What about those idiots at CBS? The CBS News is a wreck, it's just gone.

Germany registrations for the whole year 2025 by model sees a dominance of German car manufacturers and Tesla Model Y dropped to the 12th position overall. The Model 3 isn't even making the top 20.

Canada, Australia and the UK are currently working together to launch a coordinated ban on Nazi Musk’s Twitter/X platform. Good, I’m all for it. 👍

At the very least we should impeach her hat. #PuppyKiller

LETTERMAN: “.. CBS News is a wreck. It’s just gone. .. The integrity of CBS News .. has been trampled on, pissed on and eviscerated by these idiots that have taken it over.” @letterman.bsky.social $PSKY youtu.be/CHYksa07oQA?...

I've noticed that ICE agents keep yelling "18 USC § 111" at people filming them. I'd like to see the memo they all got on that talking point, and I'd like to know who sent it. Filming ICE or alerting your neighbors to their presence doesn't violate § 111.

Do you ever work so hard that when you have a few hours off, you feel like you’re forgetting to do something?

Quick update on the political situation in the US: the government is led by a billionaire pedophile who believes he can murder American citizens with impunity. Seems bad!

DHS was created to FIGHT terrorists, not to BE terrorists. It needs to be defunded by congress in 2027, and we should select candidates who run on that platform.

#endICE #STAYLOUD

Dear World: America is literally BORROWING the money we are using to terrorize the world. STOP lending us the money. Dump the treasury bonds you have and stop buying new ones. Just STOP. Our Congress is too pathetic to reign in the demented monster in the WH. So please cut off his MONEY!
