There is no decency in the Trump administration If for some bizarre reason you didn’t know that already, watch some clips of the Senate hearing involving Kristi Noem today

Trump's agents have been snatching people off the streets without due process — and over 170 US citizens have been caught in the mix. Outrageous and unacceptable. The lawlessness must end.

Here it is. The quiet part out loud.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com With attacks on speedboats in the Caribbean Sea, President Trump has ordered the summary execution of people who may not have committed the crime of which he accused them, the editorial board says. “It is a violation of legal due process that should alarm all Americans.”

We miss your goodness and your leadership in the White House, Joe.

Trump punishing law firms that represent his “political enemies” demands far more attention! Trump has now weaponized the federal government to punish two well known Democratic law firms. Unless there is a backlash, Trump will go even further. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-puni...

I had to bring this here because it’s so good

That is exactly true.

This fantastic piece by Stewart Patrick is an excellent summary of the wrecking ball that Trump is taking to the entire international order crafted by Dem & Repub presidents over 80 yrs. Who does this benefit? The Kremlin, for certain. No one else. carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

What about prices? The cost of a gallon of gasoline relative to wages is near a 20-year low 2/

The broligarchs have a vision for the new Trump term. It’s darker than you think. - Vox @urocklive1.bsky.social

It’s no secret that Project 2025 would seriously alter just about every aspect of American life. Here's what experts are most concerned about.

President Biden delivered a 17-minute farewell address to the U.S. on Wednesday. Here is a full transcript of his speech.

Going to be a long 4years 😪

Thank you, President Biden and Vice-President Harris. www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-roo...

US President Joe Biden warned in his farewell address that an American oligarchy is taking shape among a few tech billionaires who have amassed a ‘dangerous concentration of power’ reut.rs/3WjAGYR

At this point I just hope that 20 January 2025 doesn't turn out like 30 January 1933.

California Republicans Flee to Mar-a-Lago as LA Burns Instead of providing leadership, they decided to kiss Trump’s ring

Did I ever imagine that a single post of mine on social media would get this sort of attention—leading to interview requests from across the world, invitations to international conferences, requests to purchase the film rights to my biographical research and writing on Elon Musk? That would be a no.

Important from Gavin Newsom about all the disinformation about the fire. x.com/gavinnewsom/...

Trump's irredentist ravings about the Panama Canal are nonsense from hat to boots.

I fear there is deep truth here.

President Musk is at it again. www.reuters.com/world/europe...

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million. That is a lie. The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

$1,131,794,901 That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns. Well, the planet is burning. Don't let them look away.

I'm of two minds on this. On one hand, I know children will die. On the other hand, antivaxxers are about to get a big dose of Darwin.

This we need

Indeed.

Congrats to members of the Washington press corps who chose to play along with Trump. Thanks to your efforts, we’re going to have an FBI director who will prosecute journalists for doing journalism that Trump doesn’t like. Courts and the law won’t save you when your employer betrays you.

Of course. Because having a large number of sick people is good for society, in Trumpistan. Welcome to end stage capitalism.

Here’s a crazy idea. Let’s make sure the proposed new FBI Director can pass an FBI Background Check.

This is huge. The EFJ represents over 295,000 journalists in 44 countries 👇 www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/media/e...

America in 2024. 😢

This is pretty funny.

I don’t care what anyone says. GUILTY!

"When Trump entertained naming Patel deputy director of the FBI, Attorney General Bill Barr confronted the White House chief of staff and said, 'Over my dead body.'"
