unbelievable

This is literally the end of the rule of law. If a President can pardon people committing crimes on his behalf - and the Supreme Court says he himself can't be prosecuted for crimes committed as part of his job - then the government becomes a lawless entity able to violate our rights without limit.

The community in Alexandria, Louisiana, is calling for the cancelation of the new ICE facility for unaccompanied kids at England Airpark. Get loud for the kids. bsky.app/profile/anat...

The torture and trafficking of immigrant kids continues apace, with plans to remove the 2,500 unaccompanied kids presently held captive. We need a relentless drumbeat: What are they doing to the children? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Jack Smith has to respond to several questions from Republican Sen. John Kennedy with this: "I'm not going to talk about my family here today."

Meet the “Charlie Kirk” of abortion. Mother Jones and @amylittlefield.bsky.social followed anti-abortion leader Kristan Hawkins across the country as she tried to make abortion “unthinkable and unavailable.” But with the majority of Gen Z supporting legal abortion, it’s an uphill battle.

I’m with Homeland Security Investigations. I came here to talk to you about some online threats you made against ICE. Get the fuck off my property.

📌The first Democrat who runs this ad wins: "I hate these endless political ads as much as you. They are a cancer. That is why I am running to overturn Republicans' anti-American Citizens United ruling that allows dark money to clog our airways and ruin your valuable time and entertainment."

giving him immunity is behind most of this destruction. Hold USSC accountable when the time comes

Anyone associated with trying to tear down the Center—workers included—should be held legally liable. Whether or not he’s immune—no one else is. Make it hard to “play along.” Make it hard for “yes men.” Add a price.

JD Vance: "Give us another chance." Another chance to kill more people with ICE, to raise grocery prices even higher, or to send Americans overseas to die in Epstein distraction wars? Get fucked.

The Kennedy Center was financially stable until Trump took over: "In the fiscal year ending in 2024, when the center was led by President Deborah Rutter and a bipartisan board of trustees, it brought in about $40 million more than it spent" www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

All to dodge one uncomfortable vote - much like his maneuvers last year to hold off the Epstein files. You don't have to be a Democrat to find that disgraceful. In less than seven weeks, Americans can change all this. 48 days to go

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

First step: explicitly characterize Trump and the Republicans as pathological liars on an unprecedented scale and show some righteous indignation. Dont just weekly attack the latest lie.

Here’s Trump posting the results of the German election in which the neo-Nazi AfD did well. It’s important to understand that the U.S. Republican Party is part of a global fascist movement dedicated to persecuting minorities and stealing our freedom.

Trump is the only president in history to be a completely worthless, vile, unintelligent, piece of child-raping filth. He will be remembered as the absolute worst leader ever. Hopefully. But who the fuck knows? MAGA dicks will vote for any scumbag who they think is as racist as they are.

He's right, it was a long time ago. I can't remember if I was working on campus here in Princeton signing students into classes or if I was heroically leading the recovery effort at Ground Zero, bravely digging through rubble with my bare hands. Time, am I right?
