Moderate, in a country where “don’t pick on people who aren’t hurting you” has somehow become radical. 8th grade math dropout, in a country where 6th grade math dropouts are somehow running economic policy.

Mike Johnson is relying on his faith to hold control of the House. So if he loses control of the House, we can all reasonably conclude that God dislikes Mike Johnson as much as the rest of us.

In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases. So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool. They can’t erase history. jan6memoryproject.org

And the answer is easy enough, I think. We're going to make a society that takes care of people. We aren't going to allow anymore this society that caters to a shrinking number of billionaires and bosses. Call it what you want. Feel however you want about it. We're doing it.

One thing you have to keep in mind, instead of Anthony Fauci, Senate Republicans could be doing this to, say, Ghislaine Maxwell.

How can you help? Repost. We don't need money. We need channels to get our message out -- including BlueSky. So the easiest thing to do is repost this message (which includes a Starter Pack, including us, as well as groups similar to us). go.bsky.app/RXFLYri

Thomas Massie lost tonight because he wanted the Epstein List released and pedophiles held accountable. Trump didn't want any of that, so he had to go.

Trump's priorities - $1B ballroom, arch that will overshadow Arlington Cemetery, renovating DC golf courses, repainting the reflecting pool, and getting his face on passports. You know, stuff that will help in our day to day lives

So Trump accepted the 10-point peace plan that Iran proposed previously that Trump said was “not good enough.” But now it is apparently good enough. Art of the Deal.

I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines. Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."

It’s because of the recognition of tribal sovereignty. But as pointed out in oral… the 14th is the floor. Congress can still add citizenship paths… they just not exclude per 14th. Tribal members have been granted full citizenship by Congress. This affirmation strengthens tribal sovereignty.

This should be an impeachable offense. I understand that we’re way past any of that, but that shouldn’t stop us from naming it.

One wonders how long it may be before judges materially drop the presumption of regularity in their cases involving the Trump Administration…

When IT Happens, I actually hope it’s a year into the Buttigieg/Kelly/Newsome/Ocasio/Harris/Warren/Whoever Administration. Our watches & phones will ping, we’ll look at them & say, “Hmm. I forgot he wasn’t already dead,” & we’ll go on about our day (& pop a cork at dinner.)

Also, be sure not to spread this video of Justin Fox, the other DOGE bro who revealed that he's a malicious moron who caused incredible destruction. Do not hurt Justin Fox's reputation just by linking Justin Fox's name to the sworn testimony Justin Fox gave about what Justin Fox did.

More and more I want the consequences for the billionaires, politicians, appointees, and lackeys who are committing crimes for Trump to be devastatingly financial. Take all their money. ALL OF IT. And garnish their wages forever. Let them live off of whatever UBI gets passed in the next admin.

"Declaring that no quarter will be given" is specifically prohibited by Art 23 of the Annex to the Hague Convention IV, which means it is a war crime under US domestic law by virtue of the War Crimes Act (18 U.S. Code § 2441).

✋ Former USG war crimes lawyer here. Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning: Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime. And recognized as such by the US Government. From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.

Every single professional journalist who uses the phrases “Department of War” or “Secretary of War” without scare quotes should be lined up on a public viewing stage and bopped on the head with a giant inflatable hammer that says DUMB DUMB on the handle and makes fart sounds.
