One obvious point about the Republican rats desperately deserting the sinking Trump ship: They're still rats.

No one should be shot in the back and denied urgent medical care. The shooting of Venezuelan DoorDash driver Wilber Garcés Pérez by ICE in Austin demands a full investigation. Abolish ICE. Prosecute rogue agents. www.thebulwark.com/p/ice-shot-a...

Georgia Republican Senate candidate Mike Collins has fired multiple staffers for their KKK and neo-Nazi affiliations. Democrat Jon Ossoff hasn’t. Who’s the real antisemite? by Hugh Hewitt

The Wreck of the Cantor Fitzgerald Howard Lutnick is more Gordon Gekko than Gordon Lightfoot, and he's shipwrecked US-Canada relations while his boss Sundowns. If you could read my mind, you'd know I'd like the Gales of November 2026 to sink them to the bottom of "Lake America." by Maureen Dowd

Ossoff: "What did we learn this morning? Yet another connection between Rep. Mike Collins and white nationalism, between Collins and neo-Nazi ideology. One of the congressman's staffers posting swastikas online and depicting himself in the costume of the Ku Klux Klan. Disgraceful and disqualifying."

Ossoff: "The state of Georgia rejects hatred. The state of Georgia rejects bigotry. The state of Georgia rejects neo-Nazism. The state of Georgia rejects the Klan."

Ossoff on Mike Collins: "Will he release in full his office's communications with these white supremacists? He needs to answer that question today"

I can’t believe this is a post that I am making. It has been confirmed by MSNOW, that the sailor who tried to commit suicide…by jumping off the USS Lincoln…is being charged by the Navy…and may face a cut in pay I would like to say “FUCK YOU,” to every member of this administration.

This. The pro-Israel hawks, which includes the Dem leadership, will GLADLY sink El-Sayed and lose Michigan to punch the left and retain control of the party. People aren't paying attention.

Compromise with our enemies is sin masquerading as virtue and must be trampled out

"Who are the leaders of the free world, right now? There’s a triumvirate of them, pointing the way to the future." The president of the United States is not one of them.

Two paths diverged in the woods and America took the psychopath.

Somewhere in Washington, D.C., there's a lonely little Left Anterior Descending Artery whose lumen is getting narrower and narrower.

JEFFRIES: “We’d like for you to help us make healthcare more easily available.” KUSHNER: “No, but we’d like you to help us murder fishermen in the Caribbean, get me another two billion dollars from the country that supplied most of the 9/11 terrorists, and put the name Trump in gold on EVERYTHING!”

2020: ‘Mail-in ballots are a disaster!’ 2022: ‘Mail-in voting is totally corrupt!’ 2024: ‘Don’t trust the mail!’ 2026: Quietly drops his own ballot in a Florida mailbox. Any questions?

From @polphilpod.bsky.social, a deep dive into understanding neofascism that you should read. This list of key narratives is very useful for parsing our current moment. You'll recognize it in every one of these: www.liberalcurrents.com/fascists-rea...

That's objectively true and is the softer, polite version of what they really are.

fantastic engagement, let's do a thread of the most common critiques: 1. "toby dismisses the role of emption in politics" i don't at all—it's just not my focus here

When someone shows you who they are believe them the first time- Maya Angelou-🙄🙋🏻🇺🇸🤷🏻‍♂️🙄

Hey Trump, Everyone on the whole planet knew you were lying about the reflecting pool the moment you spoke. The same goes for every other word out of your mouth. Resign. Now. Sincerely, 8.3 billion people

Trump didn’t want to admit that he personally hired an unqualified contractor who screwed up the Pool and cost taxpayers millions. So instead he had the hack Fox host who he installed as US attorney indict an innocent man so he could blame him and others for his own incompetence.

Anthony Fauci is a decorated American Hero who received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, served 7 presidents, and saved tens of millions of lives.

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF. This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy. Every member of Congress must vote NO.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.

This is the FIRST time in history an American President has ever tried to actively undermine American citizens' faith in the integrity of our elections. What an un-American asshole.

Stephen Miller, by lowering standards that would have screened out David Brouilette before he murdered someone, is an accessory to murder. Here, he is projecting, describing his boss' own grievance narrative. Maybe he thinks Trump is a leftist?

Lindsey Graham: “Donald Trump is not a conservative Republican. He's an opportunist. He's not fit to be President of the United States.”

Lindsey Graham on Gaza: "Just flatten it, like we flattened Tokyo and Berlin." Lindsey Graham on the Iran War: "We are going to make tons of money." Lindsey Graham on Renée Nicole Good: "She deserved what happened. She provoked ICE." As grandma used to say: GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD RUBBISH.

When they said, "wear a suit," I just assumed…  Find a public pool near you at nycgovparks.org.

To be fair, he really needs daytime rest after being up all night posting fantasy A-I images of himself on "Truth" Social, as all presidents do.

The prosecutions of Comey are unjust and worthy of numerous people being fired/impeached, but he's still a combination of dipshit and liar. He was very much "in politics" when he broke multiple DOJ policies with his little stunts like the press conference and the late letter.

Can’t imagine how this might have any contemporary relevance… www.nytimes.com/2026/05/18/w...

It’s kinda surreal to watch all those who celebrated the J6 insurrection, cheered the pardons of all the violent offenders, now lamenting the state of political violence in America.

I don't know who put this together, but I think it is brilliant. It was posted in today's edition of @wonkettemedia.bsky.social. Absolutely brilliant.

"I know all of you [Trump administration] and him [Trump] and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit." Marjorie Taylor Greene

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

I know it makes people squirmy when I say it, but this is why it really matters that Trump is a sexual predator. "She wants me to rape her" is rapist logic. Of course he applies it to people he also wants to murder.

AOC is my pick.

Any member of the House can force a vote on impeachment, but Jeffries as minority leader has the extra perk that he can force it immediately rather than within two days.

What a disgusting, yet totally on-brand post from Convicted Felon Donald Trump on Easter, no less

An Easter message from the president which should really force the VP and the cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment.
