Bravo to the Robert's Court for unleashing a tyrant upon this country!

GOP lies are coming fast now. They didn't have a clean funding bill; they refused to keep government open unless $90 million in our cash was released for *their* security details. Dems said no, we're not putting ourselves first, we're putting the working class's healthcare—which Trump trashed—first.

This is the administration that just fired a bunch of FBI agents for kneeling at a BLM protest five years ago.

Does that orange fool announce these tarrifs after telling some members of congressional GOP preemptively? If so does this allow key GOP pols to make stock trades benefitting from the announcement? Like a bribe heading into a govt shutdown? Like why so many have allowed a tyrant to emerge unchecked?

What are the names of the U.S. Navy officers carrying out these orders to serially bomb civilian boats that pose no threat to their own vessels, killing everyone aboard? Surely they’ll want to take personal credit for this honorable service and perhaps wear a little campaign medal on their chest.

The King is ordering the prosecution of particular individuals, and threatening to fire AG Bondi if DOJ doesn't go after them. We fought a revolution to prevent this. We don’t bow down to Kings. Patriots must stop this.

Shut it down screw these fools. It's time to fight.

They are so weak they have to resort to silencing you. Do not be quiet… they have no power, and the weak little boy Donald withers when challenged every time

I wonder what it took to get the governor of Utah to say Kirk's assassin had been radicalized by the left? How convenient right before they announce a crackdown on liberal organizations.

Why? What does this have to do with us? What sort of foreign policy is this? If something bad happens to a criminal Trump pal abroad, U.S. taxpayers have to pay for a war or a new tariff or some silly new overarching foreign policy agenda? What is that?

It's almost as though the GOP watched 100 years of solitude to use as their political road map 🤷

Please take the time to contribute to organizations defending democracy. It'll be a tough fight. Your money is needed.

Holy shit. Video posted by President Bukele’s team on X shows the moments before his press conference with Trump in which Trump tells him: “We want to do homegrown criminals next. You gotta build about five more places.” (h/t @titonka.bsky.social @michelekelemen.bsky.social)

Here's an idea for you PR folks: instead of MAGA use the past tense "made" coupled with great American themes. So you'd get liberty made us great; justice made us great; labor made us great; a free press made us great, etc..

I think what we need is a protest music renaissance

I think it's ok now to refer to this administration as treasonous

Not as lonely as someone wrongfully sent to a prison in El Salvador.

Here's a great essay reminding us of what it means to be American in a time of selfishness and hate

Bruce Springsteen: End of the day, factory whistle cries / Men walk through these gates with death in their eyes Howard Lutnick: Finally we are going to re-onshore those wonderful factories from the Bruce Springsteen song, "Factory"

These guys will stop at nothing to undo American freedoms And democracy. We should stop at nothing to preserve them.

Trump does care about the pain, chaos, and turmoil he’s causing—in the following sense: He loves it. It makes him feel powerful.

I'm so baffled by how one very malicious man can be allowed to wreak such havoc upon the world!?

Lots of lies have had dire effects on the economy — "you can afford this much house" or "pets dot com is worth a kajillionty dollars" — but it sure seems like "Donald Trump is a good businessman" may end up as the most expensive lie in modern history

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

I saw the work by Olga Lautman and he findings were disturbing: Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the signal chat. Russia has infiltrated Signal and used against Ukrainians. Very possible they have the classified signal info:

Can you IMAGINE if Kamala Harris did something like this. Don't EVER say a WORD about DEI. So far we see a bunch of white male clowns making a mistake so egregious as likely to warrant a criminal investigation in a normal world. Imagine a lowly military grunt doing this.

Fascism is unsustainable. It is inherently built to fail, despite what its leaders want you to think. The bigger question is not whether it will stand. It is: can we hurry its demise? Limit its danger to the vulnerable? And just as important: what will we build after?

Has anyone surmised the reason Trump is willfully destroying the American economy?

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

Rise up!

The GOP cares little about reviving American manufacturing because so much is linked to green energy production.

As Elon Musk continues to talk about subsidies, let’s remember that he is the LARGEST GOVT SUBSIDIES RECIPIENT in the country!

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

How can an older adult not look at the GOP pols and wonder why they ALL say and do the same thing. Like there's no independence. This is to me a relatively new phenomena. It's on par with CCP is it not?

3/ in addition to all the other absurdity of the situation as they try to help or beg “Fred” to be careful they’re don’t even know who “Fred” actually is, as in a last name, or whether “Fred” is even his name. That’s what happening right now in your federal government.

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM. We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building. Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

THIS.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Why would there not be a Canada/EU/Mexico trade alliance that leaves America SOL?

Enough. The Democrats must shut down the Senate and use their power. Stop voting for these idiots. Stop all unanimous consent. Demand answers. Filibuster. Where is the fucking outrage?

This is a national emergency:
