I'm not sure how much more blatant it can get that these guys are looting the federal government and then pointing over there and saying "look what THOSE BLACK PEOPLE ARE GETTING AWAY WITH!!!" bsky.app/profile/atru...

Stephen Miller claims Somali-Americans in Minnesota are "buying Mercedes, buying BMWs, they buy a nice house, all their kids fly first class all over the world" (This is a lie!)

Anyone remember Chicago Progressive Partnership, the shell group that spent big to back pro-Israel candidates in Illinois Dem primaries? It just closed up... and transferred its bank balance back to AIPAC's super PAC.

This thread illustrates, in horrifying detail, that when the media uncritically reports statements of the Trump administration, it's not just failing in its job, it's actively contributing to the evils the administration propagates.

WOW. Kristi Noem and Elon Musk, among others, "chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an impeccable record of public service. ... The attacks against Ms. Comans were based entirely on false information" and many officials "knew [they] were untrue."

Elon Musk was violating his visa when he started his first business here and very likely obtained his U.S. citizenship through fraud. Where is that investigation?

HELL Kennedy@helenkennedy.com

Fox News is reporting this is a criminal investigation into the immigration paperwork filled out by Ilhan Omar’s late father when she was a child 40 years ago. I actually think this is so nakedly outrageous it will blow back on them. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Americans see this for what it is - President Trump is abusing his power to go after political opponents weeks before an election.

🚨 Just in: The US has sanctioned the ICC. "We ​will ban transactions with this rogue court, cutting off their resources and crippling its ability to operate," Marco Rubio said in a statement.

Trump: "If we lose $50 billion a year with a country, and we say 'we're not going to trade with you anymore,' we don't lose $50 billion a year. It's very simple. Right?"

The NIH Director confirms they are giving away biomedical research money used to develop treatments and cures for infectious diseases such as influenza, malaria, tuberculosis, HIV, Ebola, and other dangerous pathogens, to the Department of Defense. Outrageous.

Incredible. They're all still terrified of a sunsetting 80-year-old man with an approval rating in the low 30s.

This is quite something. Republican Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, who faces a competitive reelection battle in #FL27, posted a tweet critical of Trump's oil "deal" (her scare quotes) with Venezuela on Saturday. She then quickly deleted it and posted a new tweet calling it a "great deal."

RFK Jr.’s new drive to get us off anti-depressants brings home the vast number of death’s he’s already been personally responsible for, and the sheer amount of suffering. I believe that he alone, even among the crew he’s a part of, will be remembered as something other than, worse than, a villain.

It’s weird how stays that benefit Trump are always kept in place and stays that stop him are always lifted. It’s almost as if there’s some of pattern behind legal procedure at work….

SCOTUS lifts a lower-court stay on Trump’s EO attacking voting by mail. 6-3 along the usual lines. Other hurdles for the WH from other courts remain in place for now. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

This is low-key one of the most insane things any Trump administration official has ever said.

She “declined?” “Declined”? You can’t just decline to get a security clearance. You either get one or you don’t have a job. So much dysfunction in this White House. When will the GOP have had enough? Why risk the country for this? www.ms.now/news/trump-a...

CapitalOne closed 300 of Trump’s accounts on suspicions of money laundering, so the Trump family just decided to start their own bank. Problem solved!

Incredible. When E—n M—k & his crew obliterated USAID in a weekend, they deleted a vast trove of publicly-funded knowledge: the Development Experience Clearinghouse. A Canadian high school student (!) happened to have downloaded the entire thing for a project. AidData has now posted it for all.

“The idea wasn’t just to retroactively protect ‘the babies of slaves’; it was to prospectively forestall future efforts to deny citizenship based on whatever other non-sovereignty-based criteria might be politically popular in any given moment.” Me on why Trump’s new EO is *still* unconstitutional:

stevevladeck.com243. Birthright Citizenship, ReduxPresident Trump's new attempt to cabin birthright citizenship is a lot narrower than the one the Supreme Court struck down in June. Its key provisions are still unconstitutional.

Hassett: "One of the metrics of shelter costs that I find most interesting is that they're going down pretty rapidly in places like California because everybody is leaving. Even though there are high prices in California, it puts downward pressure on inflation because everybody is leaving the state"

This is morally monstrous behavior. These are ordinary, innocent people that Trump is condemning to suffering & death out of political vindictiveness. Every decent human being, regardless of political party, should condemn it. Where is the fucking *anger*? From the press? From civic leaders? Pols?

hi this is a really big deal. Chaco Canyon is one of the most important historical sites in North America. the area tribes are extremely opposed to this. please please please comment on this with the BLM. it takes two minutes.

The asshole administration is planning to remove the mining buffer around Chaco Canyon in New Mexico. This is being done without tribal or expert input and the public comment time is incredibly, and cowardly short. Please comment to help try and save Chaco. www.koat.com/article/chac...

“The left is going to lose these elections for us,” say the people who lost 2000, 2002, 2004, 2010, 2014, 2016, 2024 — often because they were fixated on the “winning” strategy of punching left and wooing center right voters
