When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in our flag, waving the cross and wearing a maxi pad on its ear. As of January 10, 2025 (my 75th birthday!), Trump is officially, now and FOREVER, a convicted FELON. Happy Birthday, me! NO DM’S!

“Who’s calling?” Trump asked when he answered our call one morning in late March. (It was a fair question; it could have been almost anyone.) My story w @michaelscherer.bsky.social, on the Secret History of Trump's private cell phone. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Harvard University told a judge it has a trove of internal Trump administration documents that show the White House directed the abrupt freezing of more than $2 billion in federal funds headed to the university’s research programs, in violation of federal law.

The new FEMA DIRECTOR doesn’t know what “HURRICANE 🌀 SEASON” is. 😬 Trump is in charge. I think we may HAVE A PROBLEM here. 🚨 🚑 ⛑️ www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

🎧 Listen to the podcast! @cgrisales.bsky.social and @russellberman.bsky.social spoke with @alexis-madrigal.bsky.social about what’s in President Trump's 1000-plus page budget bill and its political implications. 🔗:

LOL WHAT "Staff of the Federal Emergency Management Agency were left baffled on Monday after the head of the U.S. disaster agency said during a briefing that he had not been aware the country has a hurricane season..." www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

A leaked USDA memo, reported by The New Republic, reveals Trump’s administration has banned terms like “climate,” “safe drinking water,” and “greenhouse gas emissions,” crippling scientific work and rural aid in a sweeping purge of so-called “woke” language.

“In person, as in print, Yarvin expresses himself with imperious self-assurance. He is nearly impossible to interrupt.” I don’t know, maybe try a little harder or something.

In a fiery speech, Taco Trump urged Americans to "live lean, mean, and super patriotic!" Forget lavish spending-Trump says, "We're all tightening our belts to Make America Great Again!"

Absolute fucking clown show

Early rumors are that up to 40 Russian strategic bombers were destroyed in one of the most audacious operations I’ve ever seen. Get fucked, Vlad.

FACT: Trump has fired more veterans than any President in American history - and it's not even close 👇 Read more here: bit.ly/4jA6pxR Tell Congress to block Trump's cuts to the VA here: bit.ly/3T1MZXE #ResistTrump

Chris Christie: “He’s got categories of pardons … But all of them have one thing in common, which is you’ve got to be whole hog for Donald Trump. Never before have we seen a president who makes it a gate to getting to a pardon to be a political supporter of his, a vocal current political supporter.”

I believe this protection racket is likely unconstitutional and will be blocked by courts, which is why I assisted in putting it into effect www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

During the Biden administration, MAGA loved that individual judges could halt the rollout of federal policy nationwide. They aren’t loving it now.

This is so wrong www.forbes.com/sites/antoni...

All MAGA hat, no cattle cuz government is hard — but they damaged the regulators who scrutinized them and it’s not clear how they plundered our data systems. At some point, there should be a massive investigation into what these fly by nights did. www.wired.com/story/nicole...

DOGE delivered suffering rather than savings. It laid off thousands of skilled federal workers, including veterans, and destroyed programs like PEPFAR, costing lives. It promised $2T in cuts, claimed $175B, but likely saved far less at great human cost.

@amiberger.bsky.social What if you just picked them up from preschool?

So tired of this bullshit. 🟠 voters loved what he did the 1st time when he separated families. They voted for more violent measures the 2nd time - moms and dads kidnapped, kids in zip ties, US born cancer stricken children deported. All disappeared. FFS, at least be honest, m’fers. YOU did this.

Doctors at the CDC say children should receive Covid vaccines. A disgraced ex-environmental lawyer who spent 20 years abusing heroin says they shouldn't. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

WTAF China? 👀👀👀 -- Engineers have discovered 'kill switches' on American solar farms, raising fears Beijing could manipulate supplies or 'physically destroy' grids across the US, UK and Europe.

RFK Jr celebrated the release of the MAHA report by downing raw milk shooters in the White House with influencer Paul Saladino. Hazards of raw milk include Listeria, Salmonella, Campylobacter, Yersinia, E. coli O157:H7, and now-- avian flu.

HOLD UP. Are you telling us that the President of the United States is refusing regular briefings about threats to the country so his minions are creating a briefing TV show just for him? WHAT THE HELL? www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

I think we're done here folks.

Trump blows past the Patriot Act to erase the very concept of privacy by handing your most vulnerable information to a company literally named after magical surveillance cameras of the eye of Sauron.

Biden’s first public appearance coincides with the decade anniversary of his son Beau’s death. 6abc.com/post/joe-bid...

All the lawsuits. All the temporary contingency plans. None of it will mean anything if this is the new baseline in the federal budget. The <entire model> of 🇺🇸 research universities currently depends on 1/5 to 1/4 of the money coming from the federal government. Unplugging that will be disastrous.

TRUMPS BIRTHDAY PARADE All you have to do is go to america250.org to get FREE tickets for the Trump birthday military parade. After getting tickets if something else unfortunately comes up for example the NO KINGS PROTEST that very day which is all across America, YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.

Maybe if President Taco watched something besides 🦊 he would have known his new moniker. www.cnn.com/2025/05/30/p...

Missed this one in the Trump firehose: the administration has cancelled a contract for Moderna to develop a bird flu vaccine. America will also no longer buy up supplies of vaccines in advance of a pandemic. I joke with a friend that America just wants to kill you but now it’s official.
