What Noem said is crucially important: “‘We are not going away. We are staying here to LIBERATE THIS CITY from the socialists….’ The Trump administration is vowing to get rid of the democratically elected government of California by using military force. THAT THREAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A COUP.”

Trump slapped down. Should be some interesting orange posts at 3:00am tomorrow.

'Embarrassing': Trump 'booed mercilessly' by Kennedy Center at 'Les Miserables' opening

This is not good.

Follow this post for updates as they're happening in San Francisco. As of 2 minutes ago, police and protesters are toe to toe.

Should have been this way since the beginning.

Trump's Department of Justice serves three purposes: Declare that whatever Trump wants to do is legal. Dispense favors on Trump's political allies. Investigate and punish Trump's political opponents. It is a dangerous three tiered system of justice that is leading our country down a dark road.

Trump's a bully. Stand up to bullies and they'll show you the weak person they are. Way to go Mills. You showed him.

Elon Musk may or may not fulfill his promise to step back from DOGE. But his legacy is already clear: He is assembling a sprawling domestic surveillance system — the likes of which we have never seen in the United States. My latest for NYT Opinion (gift link): www.nytimes.com/2025/04/30/o...

I wouldn’t be the least bit upset if a current day fascist dictator wannabe went the same way.

If you tell me you get your news from FOX, you don’t have to tell me you’re gullible and misinformed.

Yes! www.npr.org/2025/04/28/n...

The crunch is coming. It’ll start being felt in a couple weeks. Brace yourselves, my American friends. Those of you who voted this shit in can go fuck yourselves.

More art of the deal….

The Trump administration literally just cut the contract for ongoing audits of the Prison Rape Elimination Act, the extremely bipartisan law (unanimously passed in 2003) that requires jails and prisons to take rape seriously and adopt policies designed to make it less likely to happen.

I love that he thinks there are "paid protesters" as if people don't genuinely believe his support for the Orange Atrocity, chainsaw-wielding buffoonery, DOGE cuts wrecking the economy & crappy cars aren't things they hate for free.

The art of the deal…

For those of you that found me thanks to this video, hi 👋 A little about me… I came to the study of disinformation from studying Russia, so when I warn about autocratic behavior, I know it well. Russia banned me from entering their country 🙃 I’m the author of two books (linked below) 1/

They had lawyers, trials, most were given pretrial release, allowed to testify in their own defense, got discovery, could call witnesses, could cross-examine witnesses, could present mitigation at sentencing, and had a right to appeal.

Trump-style politics are creeping in—undermining media, courts, and trust. But we’re building a grassroots force to stop them in their tracks. 🇨🇦 Join the fight to protect Canada’s future: stopmaga.ca #canpoli #cdnpoli

As the Trump administration cracks down on immigration, officials have repeatedly labeled detainees as gang leaders or terrorists, often without providing evidence in court to support those claims reut.rs/3EvfskV

It’s always a scam. time.com/7276234/trum...

This asshole raised prices and ruined your retirement savings, and now he's out golfing for the rest of the weekend.

Good. Can't stand this jerk.

Yes. Take that Musk.

Pierre Poilievre’s plan to shut down our public broadcaster is now so unpopular, he’s afraid to talk about it! Keep spreading the word about why we must stop his attempt to shut down the CBC. Encourage friends and family to join us: forwardcanada.ca/protectcbc www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

Happy TESLA TAKEDOWN Day everybody!!! Let your feelings be known about the chain-saw wielding goofball & absentee father no one voted for currently bribing people for their votes while decimating our federal workforce. Go to: teslatakedown.com to plan your protest of ugly cars. Then eat pie. 🥧😋

Musk says says free speech ends where criticism of his defective and overpriced Tesla shit boxes starts. #TeslaTakeDown

A recent newcomer to Bluesky worth following: @barackobama.bsky.social

The FTC has pending lawsuits against Amazon, Meta, & Google. Trump is trying to gut the FTC by firing two Democratic commissioners. The NLRB is fighting against Amazon & SpaceX in court for violating workers' rights. Trump tried to gut the NLRB. See the problem here?

One close Trump adviser simply says that the president’s ultimate leverage against certain judges who try to stand in the way of his agenda is that the judiciary does not command an army, while the president of the United States does.

Nice. www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/ar...

This is great. I hope others follow suit. Gave up my WSJ sub when it became obvious that the owner is a prick. Think maybe I'll get a Wired subscription. freedom.press/issues/wired...

Understanding the psychology of how dictators take control is fundamental in defying it. Stand together. Stand strong. This is a must watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KN0G...
