Resistance is NOT futile. Democracy and the Rule Of Law are necessary conditions for all the other good things that we might hope for.

The inconvenient truth.

History matters.

Gov. Gavin Newsom said on social media that California National Guard was being taken over by the federal government “not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.”

With the Supreme Court now handing DOGE access to Social Security data, it’s becoming undeniable, the Trump administration is building the “deep state” themselves. Don’t get distracted by the noise.

NEW: Trump’s DOJ is “court-baiting”: forcing the judiciary to make potentially unpopular decisions that are necessary to protect constitutional principles — then attacking them for those decisions. Experts say it’s straight from the authoritarian playbook. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The hits keep on coming… damn!

This guy has no class.

In an act of integrity and resistance, a supervisor in the Nashville federal prosecutor’s office resigned over how the Abrego Garcia case was being handled. The charges are bogus, pure political theater meant to justify a wrongful abduction.

Something tells me that when the Deputy Chief of Staff at DHS tweets to his 1.3M followers that Abrego Garcia is a criminal terrorist monster who will serve a long prison sentence, that might taint the jury pool. @aclu.org

It's totally great, and Mark Hamill is great IN it.

Oh, JD. Looks like you know whose side you need to stick to.

And here we are, fighting over the wealth of a nation rather than the safety of the world.

Musk vs. Trump is heating up, and The Tea is boiling hot! The Epstein tweet! 😱 The impeachment tweet! 😱 Kanye tweeting? 🙀 ‪@jonathancapehart.bsky.social‬ & @aprildryan.bsky.social‬ get into it

This hideous bill Republicans are trying to push through isn’t just about healthcare and food access. It has tons of hidden life altering changes for all of us…

Just Say No!

BREAKING: HAHAHAHA

Trump posted that Putin “very strongly” said “he will have to respond” to the recent attacks by Ukraine. Trump should've told Putin to end the war, stop his illegal invasion, stop killing Ukrainians. But he was too busy acting like Putin's press secretary and announcing his military plans.

Autocracy but also just crazy

Not knowing about things doesn’t mean they’re not happening.

Don’t look for logic and reason beyond the chaos itself.

Our Secretary of Education, folks.

BREAKING: Judge Boasberg GRANTS class certification for the people held at CECOT and gives the government ONE WEEK to explain how they're going to facilitate due process for EVERYONE sent there under the Alien Enemies Act. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This administration is hapless, hopeless and corrupt beyond comprehension.

It's a cult www.axios.com/2025/06/03/a...

Do not comply. Resist.

Lunch by drone — A cartoon by @andertoon.bsky.social

On May 23, President Trump signed an executive order he’s calling a “restoration of gold standard science.” But don’t be fooled, this is not about scientific integrity. It’s about political control. The order gives Trump’s political appointees sweeping power over federal science. They can now:

Yay!

Wait WHAT?! People are bracing for storms and this man just found out the weather exists?! This is what happens when you hire vibes over qualifications.

DOGE was a smash and grab robbery of our personal data.

When ideology contradicts data, people can die.

Please listen to the UN General Secretary.

WELL DONE! Friend of the pod @jjindc.bsky.social reports he was on hold for nearly FOUR HOURS, at which point they kicked him back to the main menu because the don't take calls after 6 PM ET. You've rendered the ICE tip line USELESS! Tune in to the Daily Beans podcast tomorrow for more Good Trouble!

The ghoul in charge of deportations has dropped the pretense that this was ever about deporting criminals.

This report is deeply troubling. What is in this so-called side deal? The Trump administration needs to come clean immediately. www.axios.com/2025/06/02/i...

If TACO Trump is already folding on Iran, the American people need to know about it. No side deals.

“Without the threat of contempt, legal experts say the Trump administration could ignore court orders with impunity.” Project 2025 was once a secret. Now it’s being written into our country. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Stephen Miller sure seems to be speaking for the White House a lot.
