i hope media executives are taking note of the tens of thousands of people who for several hours on a friday night have stayed glued to livestreams of scaffolding being built just so they could witness his name getting knocked off a building

When a regime clearly holds the rule of law in contempt, and views itself as completely above the law, it and its agents don’t have any moral argument for the protections of the rule of law.

Moments of peace after a couple of hard weeks.

Sandra Wong, the great granddaughter of Wong Kim Ark, is preparing to march at the #NoKings Rally in San Francisco. Today is the 128th Anniversary of the SCOTUS decision affirming birthright citizenship.

This whole administration continues to be an object lesson in the catastrophic folly of letting unserious people have authority over serious things

Counterpoint: No, it would not. It would be a lot of other things, though.

one thing the trump era has made clear, i think, is that the american people themselves are far more committed to the values of our founding documents than our elites

Of the biggest scandals in US history just this week, I think I’d rank them: 1) Federal paramilitaries invade US city based on racist lies, murder US citizens 2) Slush fund for the president from stolen foreign resources held in Qatar 3) Whatever FBI and DNI are doing re: 2020 election in Georgia

So am I.

"Donald Trump now genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him. Also, he really is maniacally, unhealthily obsessive about the Nobel Prize." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

We watched in real time and yet here we are.

Yesterday, @markhertling.bsky.social took a look at what regime change in Venezuela would really look like. Read it now: lnk.thebulwark.com/3NrrnnW

This is fantastic (or fantastique)

I haven’t purchased anything from Amazon in well over a year or Whole Foods since January, and have also cancelled my Washington Post subscription.

I would rather live next door to someone who speaks another language than live next door to someone who doesn’t want to live near people who speak other languages. I know nothing about Person A but I know person B is a shitbird.

Let kids have an evening of fun and find a separate way to support families! Your local food banks and community organizations would be happy to receive a donation, no matter the amount! It doesn't have to be either/or.

Trump has the same office as Washington, Lincoln, and FDR, yet he chooses to use it on performative stupidity like this.

One of several No Kings events in & around Pittsburgh - it was a beautiful day in the neighborhood

we need evidence of two things: first, that trump can distinguish fantasy from reality and second, that trump is actually president

Never forget-

This is the most corrupt DOJ in my lifetime, and my lifetime includes the Watergate years.

In a less insane time, if it was discovered that the President of the United States said this privately to their AG, it would’ve triggered an all-encompassing, impeachable corruption scandal. Here, Trump is saying it publicly and it’s just another Saturday.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

What a truly awful person he is. I'll never understand why the whole lot of them didn't just walk away on the spot or at the very least speak up for her.

This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.

I am proud to be a monthly supporter of ProPublica.

these people just fundamentally believe that only they have the legitimate right to political power www.gelliottmorris.com/p/new-house-...

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

This is fantastic.

strong Madness of King George energy

Absolutely appalling.

Join us. Fight back by telling 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 story. Because your story is America’s story.

Amazing. NYT has more confirmation that Trump's decision to bomb Iran was motivated in large part by the way the Israeli strikes were "playing" on Fox News, which drove him to want credit for it

Ignore any sober geopolitical analysis of "why Trump went to war." The truth? A buck-naked mad king impulsively and unilaterally dropped bombs 6.500 miles away because that's what fascist dictators always do in the end This is Donald Trump's war, not ours. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/dona...

you need to hear this man say "mercury" and "proud," incredible yinzer power on display

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

It's pretty notable that mainstream, establishment discourse never ever ever considers giving liberal politicians credit for crime reductions. It's almost axiomatic that if crime goes down under a center-left leader it's either unremarked upon, or must be driven by something else.

Visiting husband's family in SE Virginia but had to escape their chaos for a couple of hours and join the nearest #NoKings rally. Great crowd of all ages. #NoKingsNorfolk

This Pittsburgher agrees. Gritty rules.

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

I wish journalists would stop framing political news as wins or losses for politicians or political parties. It’s an abrogation of our mission. Why do we keep doing this? Is the spending bill a win or loss for the American people? Who does it help? Who does it hurt? Is it sound policy? Fiscally?

There is no hell deep enough to contain the people involved with this
