to all history nerd, etc. What could have the German population done (legal AND illegal) that could have held back Hitler??

“Filing a placeholder charge the defendant can’t be tried on, on the last possible day, under seal, in the third case against the same man, is not routine or ‘widely recognized.’ It is exactly what it appears to be: vindictive.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Watch this with Trump at his side, remember the dissents in the birthright citizenship case — www.lawdork.com/p/six-opinio... — and understand there are no limits, no places they wouldn’t go.

from @zarinazabrisky.bsky.social:

A carefully planned Russian propaganda operation is underway. Having starved people in Oleshky for months, Russia, with the 'intervention' of Melania, will allow people to leave and pretend Ukraine was at fault. Read @zarinazabrisky.bsky.social www.kyivpost.com/analysis/88041

I can't believe my dog of war robot is being used for dark ends 😱

Trump said he had to takeover Greenland to keep China and Russia out. And then he snuck Russia onto the North Slope. Literally just ... inviting them in. www.ft.com/content/e9cf...

ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle. Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV. The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.

2. StarLink does not operate over the territory of Russia. Thus, we PHYSICALLY CANNOT USE COMMERCIAL STARLINK for deep strikes and middle strikes.

And then the Russian company, presented with the evidence we had gathered, acknowledged in a statement: Yes, we are moving to take a large stake in the Polar LNG project in Alaska. Story was nailed. A bit hard to follow with all the names. But this is confirmation. Had not been previously disclosed.

President Trump, never one to pinch pennies on anything shiny and new, has spent millions of taxpayer dollars on pet construction projects around Washington, D.C. They’re not going well.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Unusual Machines—where Don Jr. is an adviser—just annouced it got a $16.9M order from Powerus—a drone firm backed by Don Jr. and Eric. 🤝🏻

The bigger question is how Musk can hold a security clearance or oversee the operations of a company with supersensitive and classified government contracts. Several FBI agents bluntly asked that question. They all got fired or reassigned and their supervisors were unable to answer their questions.

The Army obligated another $40.2M to Hadrian, a 1789 Capital company where Donald Trump Jr. is a partner. Signed in July but only now public on USASpending, under DoD's 90-day reporting delay

In 2020, Lindsey Graham had a secret dinner with executives at the defense firm Navatek. Graham agreed to steer a $10 million contract their way. In exchange, the firm’s CEO, Martin Kao, pledged thousands for Graham’s campaign coffers, Kao later told the FBI.

Nothing says rugged independence like a Socialist bailout.

🚨🚨🚨 Q: Is there any scenario in which DOJ would try to block states from certifying the election? AG TODD BLANCHE: Yes, of course. It is not DOJ's intention to improperly interfere with elections or the state certification process, but ...

This is DEFCON 2 talk.

Every bit of this 👇

I'm sorry, as a survivor of child physical and sexual abuse from a parent, this is very triggering. This chud thinks promoting a woman who sided with her husband after he was arrested for raping her 12-year-old daughter is just about "hurt feelings." It's so much more. It's about human depravity.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

NEW: A firm started late last year by the family of the Venezuelan banker Julio Herrera Velutini offered to pay Alina Habba $10m/year while she was an administration advisor. Weeks after she started at the company, Trump pardoned Herrera Velutini, who had been charged in a bribery case.

Trump: "Russia is not helping Iran" Iran:

THEY ARE NOT POWERLESS TO STOP HIM! Go back to Washington, stand on the steps of the Capitol and demand Johnson and Thune recall the House and Senate, and impeach him. THIS IS HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK! THERE IS LITERALLY AN INSTRUCTION MANUAL! (It's called the Constitution.)

Trump: "Sometimes there's a dispute about who turned them in and who is supposed to get what and when. So I am going to do something which I think people will like - I will be the arbitrator of all of these decisions. I'll determine whether the person is deserving ... there's nothing in this for me"

In his first term Trump blocked congressionally mandated aid to Ukraine in an attempt to coerce them to investigate Biden. Many of the same Republicans who opposed his impeachment for that are now complaining that he’s doing it again - and now people are dying because of it.

I don’t understand why farmers need an endless series of welfare payments from the rest of us since Trump took office. Aren’t his policies working for you? You need us to pay you so you will keep voting for the guy who is failing you? Don’t you believe in free market capitalism?

what is amazing is that i was fired by MSNBC for telling the truth about Charlie Kirk. And CBS refuses to do anything about journalists telling lies about Dem. candidates. Unreal.

🤔

Lavrov confirmed that Russia is returning/sending more civilian nuclear technicians to Iranian NPP Bushehr. I dare to suggest the war will be “settled” by Russia “guaranteeing” to ensure Iran “behaves””, without anyone actually controlling what’s going on. In return, US pressures Ukraine.

Exactly 10 years ago today: Hillary Clinton said Vladimir Putin would rather have "a puppet as president of the United States.” She absolutely nailed it. 🔨

Definitely gonna bring inflation down...definitely.

…

On No Kings Day, 7 million Americans turned out to protest the Trump administration. Here's the wonderful front-page coverage furnished by NYT. (There isn't any).

🇺🇸🇺🇦❗️The US does not agree to send Patriot missiles that have already been purchased for Ukraine: it was a significant delivery, - sources of the Kyiv Independent.

Important note. There is a five-year lockup period during which these kids (the parents on their behalf), cannot sell the stock. Such a market-manipulating move to keep a floor under his stock price. This helps him with his existing shares. And even if they fall, that’s on the kids.

The same Lankford was absolutely furious +livid that the Bipartisan Border Bill was thrown in the garbage 🗑️ can by Mike Johnson ordered by Trump who wasn’t even President but phoned it in from Mar a Lago, so President Biden wouldn’t get credit and Trump would have something to campaign on.

Nobody hates free speech more than the fascist tech oligarchs who claimed to care about it more than anyone. What an absolute joke. P.S. they also hate democracy. As we hand them control of the country. www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

Trump: "I said, 'Let's go and join the president for lunch at Mar-a-Lago and we'll buy one hamburger and a small dessert. That'll take up about $5,000.'"

lmao

Apparently at around 1:30 PM ET, the main accounts for the No Kings coalition on Instagram were frozen and pulled down. Admins have lost access to the account and are unable to log in. This happened at the peak of the organization's national day of action. Instagram, of course, is owned by Meta.

Update: without explanation, and after being suspended for more than an hour during peak mobilization time, Zuckerberg's Instagram restored the No Kings account but we still lack admin access. More to come. Rest assured we will not stop organizing against this regime and its collaborators.

❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.
