Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

MSNOW is reporting that Trump cancelled the trip to Islamabad... I dont think there was ever a meeting planned. I think he's blowing hot air again and these news agencies are actually taking it seriously. Waste of time reading that crap.

The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room. The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction. The Health guy collects raccoon dicks. It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.

Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx.  In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.

Hungary just elected a new PM who wasted zero time — he shut down state propaganda, called out the corrupt officials by name, and started the reckoning on day one. It made me want to write down exactly what that should look like here. So I did. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something. For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

This is an actual statement from the President of the United States. This cannot be hand waved away as a joke. The man is threatening war crimes on top of war crimes! ENOUGH! I don’t say this lightly: The 25th Amendment needs to be invoked. The President needs to be removed!

BREAKING: Some military commanders may be preparing to defy unlawful orders that disobey the U.S. Constitution, according to retired Lieutenant General Mark Hertling, per MS NOW.

The President of the United States is threatening war crimes. That alone is illegal. He is unfit for office. I am urging the entire military command to remember your oath to the Constitution. Do not follow illegal orders. Do not commit war crimes. The stain and repercussions will be endless.

Donald Trump just threatened to unilaterally destroy an entire civilization. Is there genuinely no limit to what Republicans will allow this unhinged, unwell man to do? Congress must come back to Washington to rein in this dangerous behavior immediately.

Speaker Johnson, we are calling on you to bring the House back to DC IMMEDIATELY! The Cabinet needs to invoke the 25th Amendment. But Congress can’t just sit on its hands and wait for that to happen when the President is threatening to commit war crimes TONIGHT.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

Lee Zeldin has already destroyed the EPA. If he becomes the next AG, he'll continue in the fine Bondi tradition of destroying the DOJ.

If you look back at Trumps first 15 months, it’s easy to see why he has spent most of his life either in bankruptcy court or begging banks for money. This time he is bankrupting a country.

Robert Mueller, a Vietnam veteran with a bronze star for heroism, and a purple heart has passed away. Perhaps his biggest honor was trying to save our democracy. I REFUSE to let him be a punchline for our deranged president. Robert Mueller was a hero and may he rest in peace and watch over us. Amen.

As a Marine platoon leader in Vietnam, Mueller was shot and later returned to lead his platoon after his recovery. He received a Bronze Star for valor, a Purple Heart, 2 Navy/Marine Commendation medals, Republican of Vietnam Cross of Valor, and numerous other medals.

There is literally no excuse for John Fetterman. He has betrayed every single person who's voted for him. Seriously, Fetterman, resign or switch parties.

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

The Obamas are the epitome of sophistication, class, intelligence, grace, decency and love. I’m so desperately missing presence like this in the White House.

You might think that the inhumane conditions at America's concentration camps is because of this administration's usual lazy incompetence, but, no, it's because of this administration's usual vicious cruelty.

AOC is perhaps the most intelligent and progressive congressperson in the USA. She has such a clear grasp of why democracy has fallen. The worst piece of legislation ever enacted by SCOTUS was Citizen's United. Unless and until such legislation is revoked, democracy is finished.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise. BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG: “I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.” The ad aged. The internet remembers.

From @wired.com: “Federal records reveal ICE is secretly expanding into 150+ facilities across nearly every state — many near schools, medical offices, and places of worship… DHS asked the General Services Administration to hide lease listings and bypass normal procedures…”🤔
