I wrote about how Trump is treating presidential power like it's his own possession and using it to punish blue states — but also about how at least he's promised lots of cash for all of us. www.ctinsider.com/columnist/ar...

POTUS just signed the Lindsey Graham Sanction Russia and Iran Act into law. Don’t fall for the label. It gives the President unprecedentedly broad authority to impose secondary sanctions and massive tariffs on foreign nations (100-500%).

A CNN investigation reveals Russia likely provided crucial satellite information about U.S. bases, giving Tehran a major advantage in the war. And not a word from Senile Satan.

When is the last time a U.S. president blackmailed Congress into putting his name on a building, or doing anything else, for that matter?

I think tearing down Trump's monstrosities, and scraping all that gold crap off the walls, would be healthy symbolism about recovering the country. In addition, fire all his appointees. He's the guy who wanted Schedule F - the next Dem POTUS should use it, then cancel Schedule F. But use it first.

This is the point Dems need to push. It's agreed on by all Dems -- from the far left to center to the right of the Party. And it's what resonates with everyone but crazy MAGA ... and billionaires.

How interesting…and not at all surprising. tRump’s motives are almost all transactional.

Mark Jacob@markjacob.bsky.social

This NY Times story is largely a summary of Trump’s anti-free-speech moves. But there’s an interesting nugget: Trump’s access ban against the Associated Press had a motive beyond the “Gulf of America” dispute. Trump wanted AP to give him rights to that photo of him after the Butler, PA, shooting.

I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

Beto O’Rourke stood outside the Texas GOP convention tonight and said what everyone in that room already knows: they scare you about immigrants and trans neighbors so you don’t notice the pockets getting picked. Tarrant County just cut 92 polling places. Connect the dots.

Thanks Don! Always happy to be on your list!

Look at this loathsome repulsive creature yelling at a reporter. In addition to the fact that he’s the worst president in US history, he’s one of the worst human beings on planet earth. His supporters have a very serious defect in their character.

tRump is prioritizing being rich and successful over quality of life issues, like having enough electricity and water and maybe not burning down the planet.

Ricky Davila@therickydavila.bsky.social

The orange felon recently said that embracing destructive immoral data centers is the secret to being rich and successful. Which means the lifelong thieving fraudster criminal has invested in data centers and wants people to suffer as a result of that greed. I hate him immensely.

Absolutely true.

And the stress and the worry of what's happening in this country, what's happening to our healthcare, our benefits, keeps us awake at night? Do they fucking hear themselves? I know more people who are in therapy because of this and hanging on by a thread than they can imagine! That is NOT HEALTHY!
