“The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” - FDR

Judges should not trust the government.

If you are shocked this am that Trump’s government executed a search warrant against a Democratic Member of Congress and ignored a judge’s order then you haven’t been paying attention. Stop saying this isn’t how it works in the US. It is exactly how it works under Trump.

When Ukraine destroys Russian data centers, hoards of aggressive right-wing bots disappear & the internet becomes friendlier. So much of politics is driven by the internet & so much of the internet is driven by Russians who want to hurt us. Shouldn’t we do something about that, given that we know it

You know what? Maybe requiring the ultra rich to help someone other than themselves wouldn’t be so bad. Guess what?! We can vote for that.

That time of year.

More evidence that the president of the United States is psychotic. He’s been called out on this lie for many years. Once upon a time he knew he was bullshitting. But he has convinced himself of it now, as he has with all of the other fantasies with which he today soothes his fragile ego.

“The bottom line is, it's f**king ridiculous, absolutely f**king ridiculous.”

True.

Let's play who's the communist.

Republicans spent years promising they were coming after those of us on the January 6th Committee. They're on their SECOND investigation of the committee. Well… you control Congress. You control the White House. It’s August. So, guys: what happened?

TRUMP IS A RAPIST In a court of law, by the SCOTUS and his own testimony. This will be in American history books forever.

Why were the AG & FBI Dir. campaigning w/Trump as the Solicitor General was flattering him in a SCOTUS brief? It’s not a coincidence. They understand the rules at Trump’s DOJ. And those rules have nothing to do with the rule of law. Read here & stay informed: joycevance.substack.com/p/deeply-dis...

Trump said deportations would lead to more jobs for American citizens. But according to new research, his cruel immigration raids actually COST jobs, including those held by American citizens. This was never about “protecting American workers.” It was always about racism and cruelty.

Today marks 91 years of Social Security—a pillar of opportunity and peace of mind for generations of Americans. Despite relentless Republican attacks, Democrats will continue to protect this vital lifeline that millions rely on to retire with dignity.

Phang: This was so important because Judge Sullivan made it very clear to these DOJ attorneys that he's willing and able to do it. He doesn't want to hold them in contempt, but he's done it before and he'll do it again.

If you have enough money that you can blow $100,000,000 on avoiding taxes, you have enough money to pay $100,000,000 *on* taxes that will help your fellow citizens, you self-centered prick.

You may have seen the scary headlines about migrants from Morocco “crossing into Spain.” There’s some important context missing: they reached a Spanish territory in North Africa, not mainland Europe. That distinction matters. But FoxNews and the adminstration doesn't want you to know this

The American Dream has become an American Nightmare. It’s too expensive to buy a home. It’s too expensive to get married and have kids. It’s too expensive to retire comfortably. The top 1% put the American Dream behind a paywall.

Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

Right now we mourn America. In November, we can celebrate it again. youtu.be/4V4DHronVWE

Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
