I Resist Tyranny

DOJ Deputy Chief Joseph Schnitt admitted that the government will "redact every republican" and "leave all the liberal, democratic people” on the Epstein client list. He also said Ghislaine Maxwell was moved to a minimum securithy prison as "a benefit to keep her mouth shut."

What are we even doing?

Just in time for Taco Tuesday

About 50 of us here and more trickling in at Snohomish, Wash. #FightTheTrumpTakeover rally!!

Started my "holiday" with a protest. Second in my life and second in a month.

What more needs to be said

Knew him, but didn't know his history. Rest in peace shipmate!

KTLA - Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all US Marines, pepper-sprayed and punched in the face by alleged federal immigration officers while he was working as a landscaper at an IHOP. He was then forced into the back of an unmarked car in Santa Ana.

Here is the cruel post that Chuck Schumer has since deleted after being called out on it. The lives of trans children are not a distraction, @schumer.senate.gov

Tucker Carlson says Fox is a propaganda network that manipulates their mostly elderly audience.

My first protest in 54 years of life here in Edmonds, Wash. We have to stop the felonious old yam tits. #NoKings

Day 62. 🤡 www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

We are now living in a time when the weather reporter is the best journalist on the evening news, here explaining how Trump's cuts to science are jeopardizing lives in hurricane season:

Donald has spent the last week pardoning his friends who defrauded Medicare, union pensions, banks, and more. This is what “fraud and abuse” actually looks like. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c...

DOGE will potentially cost the US government $135 billion this year alone due to firings, re-hirings, lost productivity and paid leave for thousands of employees, according to the Partnership for Public Service and acknowledged by Elon Musk’s Grok AI assistant.

I updated this old graph of mine. It shows that, if not for the Bush and Trump tax cuts, debt/GDP would be stable rather than rising forever. I've updated the methodology to first assume an AMT patch at Clinton levels, so I'm only attributing to the Bush tax cuts their portion of the AMT patch.

#TACOtrump

Ground beef hit a record $5.80 per pound in April, up nearly 50% from five years ago. And the USDA says prices will keep climbing throughout 2025. Not great

Trump told West Point cadets at their graduation that he wouldn't be able to shake their hands, a tradition among US presidents, because he had urgent matters to deal with on China and Russia. This was him "dealing" with China and Russia moments later. He went golfing.

#RepublicanPriorities

The House Republican budget will balloon our deficits, putting the US on track to borrow even more than before. No matter what they tell you, MAGA is not conservative.

Wow. Also holy crap

This seems bad

As Donald Trump leads America down the path to becoming a failed state, we have lost 24/7 weather services in parts of the country. Along with massive deterioration in Social Security services caused by Musk, American decline at the hands of billionaires couldn't be more stark.

Trump is giving you cancer so he can give millionaires yachts and hookers.

What the actual cruel fuck?!?!?

WATCHDOG REPORT: Counselors and psychologists at Defense Department schools say they are overwhelmed by a surge in student mental health concerns — especially suicidal behavior — due to staffing shortages, administrative burdens and unclear guidance.

The GOP "Big Beautiful" budget achieved its goal: tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk. How did they afford it? By slashing benefits, gutting social programs, and raising taxes on the working class. Call (202) 224-3121 to tell your Rep this bill is bullshit.

WSJ editorial page on fire: [M]arkets have forced Trump to back down from his fever dream that high tariff walls will usher in a new “golden age.” The age didn’t last two months, and it was more leaden than golden....Trump...started a trade war with Adam Smith and lost. www.wsj.com/opinion/u-s-...

Excellent NYT graphic. In the space of about 3 months, tariffs on China: -- doubled; -- went up ≈ 2.5X from there; -- roughly doubled again; -- went up ≈ 40% from there; -- and now have dropped ≈ 80% from the peak -- but are still 3X what they were in February. www.nytimes.com/article/trum...

This isn’t a good idea even if the plane was being donated to the U.S. government. But Trump GETS TO KEEP THE PLANE??? It’s simply a cash payment to Trump in exchange for favors. Just wildly illegal.

I don't see how this is any different than Russia forcing workers to clean out Chernobyl. The ruling class using and abusing the bodies of the working class to line their pockets. It's why the wealthy refer to us as "human capital stock." www.cbsnews.com/news/west-vi...

Yeah I feel super bad for these investors. </s>

Donald stopped trade with China in 2020 by being incompetent at handling COVID. He's back stopping it in 2024 by being incompetent at understanding the effects of tariffs. www.cnn.com/2025/05/10/b...

🔥 Kimmel on @repstansbury.bsky.social gloriously trolling Marge for using a doctored photo to try to make a witness look bad

More of this. These anti-Constitution MAGA hooligans need to be called out for their lawlessness in very direct terms.

Prediction Trump: We have an American Pope cos I made America Great Again Pope: Nationalism is bad, Jesus didn't like capitalism, and tariffs hurt the poor Trump: The Pope is a bad Pope, what a nasty Pope, I call him Fake Pope, etc Just watch.

Few lawyers are willing to speak publicly about President Trump’s actions against law firms. Fear is rippling through Washington. But, despite being a target, Marc Elias is still talking. Scott Pelley sits down with him tonight on 60 Minutes.

Completely trivial compared to the message, but God, do I love a genuine, unreconstructed, proud Wisconsin accent.

I love the internet

Not good.

“I could” Seems pretty relevant.

Monstrous.

What the actual fuck???
