Smart. Can't blame him. The US elected the Orange flatulence once. That was crazy. Then, AGAIN? Americans are just stoopid.

I agree…

Damaging vaccine & food supply Destroying weather info access Kidnapping/exiling people to concentration camps Hacking our most sensitive data Preventing due process Hurting children & elders to enrich the 1% If a foreign enemy were doing it, we’d be at war but in 2025 it’s a day ending in Y.

Trump says he is "going to look at" pardons for the men who plotted to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer, saying "I did watch the trial," and adding "It looked to me like somewhat of a railroad job." This is why you NEVER try to chum up to autocrats. Here's your reward!

I just think there needs to be more attention paid to the uniquely creepy, mendacious, awfulness of Speaker Mike Johnson. Don’t underestimate the depth of his ambition and breadth of what he is willing to do to never return to Shreveport.

And furthermore, I’m sick of the chaos one person, aided by sycophants, has unleashed on all of us. Especially the least fortunate.

Please respect the decisions of those who’ve chosen to leave ICE. Many federal employees want no part in this. The Trump administration is deliberately pushing people out forcing them to choose between their jobs and their conscience.

I’m starting my annual walk across Connecticut today! Beginning in the very northwest corner of the state - Salisbury. I will talk to hundreds of people over the next few days about what they want (and don’t want!) from their elected leaders. My favorite week of the year!

"Let's start a club for evil, corrupt men willing to ruin innocent people's lives for our own political ambitions!" "Great!"

MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen. Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy. She’s lived here 48 years. They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her. She. Is. A. Citizen.

Breaking News: A judge said the government should release Kseniia Petrova, a Russian scientist employed by Harvard University, saying U.S. customs had “no factual or legal basis” for revoking her visa.

Phang: If you have to resort to deceit to get something done, that tells me what you’re doing is wrong. What’s happening is a dup-and-scoop: people are being duped into going to court, their cases get dismissed, and then they’re scooped up by ICE and deported under expedited removal.

NPR's new lawsuit is a powerhouse, identifying multiple, independent ways the Trump administration violated the Constitution in order to take revenge on public media. Bottom line? This administration is scared of the truth & this lawsuit reveals that weakness. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Cowards.

Another win!!! Now release him. A federal judge just ruled that the law used to detain Mr. Khalil is likely unconstitutional. Why? Because it’s too vague and was never meant to apply to someone like him a U.S. resident who never left the country.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

Here's how bad the Criminal Orange Fart-brain is: my own spouse worries that she could be deported. A citizen of the USA since 2012. For the Orange Fuck, the intimidation and the cruelty IS THE POINT. Orange motherlover, keeping people awake at night and worrying for no legitimate reason. ANGRY.

There is no such thing as a bottom for the Criminal Felon Orange Fuck. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

I’m convinced PP sinks a bit further into his seat each time PM Carney speaks. I mean, PP’s been in politics for 22 years but is stuck in the past. He can’t see the big picture for Canada and he can’t think out of the box. He ruminates on petty grievances and identity politics. #cdnpoli #abpoli

THREAD 🧵 🚨 ICE Agents Arrest Immigrants at Courthouses 🚨 Demand Immediate Investigations Masked ICE agents are arresting immigrants immediately after their court hearings, violating due process and deterring individuals from attending court. 1/4 www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

They are purging all the transcripts.

🎉 CONGRATS #GOP 🎉 Every day you stand with Donald J. Trump is a day that you stand with Putin, measles, and concentration camps. It is also a day that you stand against due process, democracy, the Constitution, and public health. You gave it all up for the worst reasons. #RemoveTrump

Where are all of my tough on crime, law and order Republicans?
