Corrupt Abbott signed a new rigged House map, expected to give Republicans five additional pick-up opportunities before the 2026 midterms. But Democrats will fight hard like CA and win the House back! #ProudBlue #DemVoirce1

That Trump and Trumpism are fascist doesn’t explain the sheer vandalism of unleashing mass murdering mayhem via RFK to replace medical/scientific institutions of immense value and prestige with medieval peasant superstitions. That is a criminal madness facilitated by but above and beyond fascism.

I was literally dumbfounded when he won reelection. I realized that it wasn't just stupidity, but also racism, hate and misogyny. There is a portion of this country who will never vote for a woman, no matter how qualified she is.

weeks after Gretchen Whitmer took part in multiple photo ops with Trump, Trump says he's "looking at" pardoning men who were convicted of conspiring to kidnap her

Chris Murphy: "Let's be clear what this trip is all about. This is President Trump's corruption tour of the Middle East. He is going to the gulf to collect tribute. What's happening here is an extraordinary level of corruption. We shouldn't pretend this is business as usual."

#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited Good morning, BlueSky! In North Carolina, we don’t let age slow us down! This 95 year old resister hit the streets! If you can’t join in a protest, there are still so many ways you can FIGHT BACK. #LFG

To be fair, it may not be that he has any cognitive issues Rather, it seems likely his worldview has always been so ignorant and distorted that he's NEVER had a grasp on reality

New in PN: Trump's brain is gone "Trump’s competence has always left a lot to be desired, but recent interviews show a president who’s no longer capable of even the veneer of mental acuity. Meanwhile, his party behaves like courtiers to a mad king."

Bondi spends so much time on Fox News that I wonder how she can possibly find enough hours in the day to run a police state.

Bondi declares war on the courts: "What has happened to our judiciary is beyond me ... they are deranged ... we are sending a very strong message today ... we will come after you and we will prosecute you. We will find you."

BREAKING: after JD Vance's numerous gaffs lately, Donald Trump reassigns him to a position he's more capable of handling: official Presidential hair stylist. (SOUND UP)

There are no kings in America. Trump and Bondi can't just decide to arrest sitting judges at will and threaten judges into submission. This is a dangerous escalation, an attack on the separation of powers, and we will fight this with everything we have.

Message from the Trump administration. Drop dead America - you are on your own.

Trump denies disaster aid, tells states to do more. FEMA has denied federal assistance for tornadoes in Arkansas, flooding in WV, and a windstorm in Washington state. It also has refused NC’s request for extended relief funding in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. stateline.org/2025/04/25/t...

#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited It’s kinda like the parent who takes a child out in public and is horrified they might embarrass them. Except much, much worse. God I hope he can keep his damn mouth shut.

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

Exactly right. Who’s going to stop this from happening? Congress? SCOTUS? Who will enforce a court ruling against what he’s doing or planning to do? Look in the mirror. We, ALL the people are it. We better get together on this, and fast. Understand? No American is safe. #MomSky

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.
