Conservatives believe free speech is when they can say what they want and when you can say what they want. bsky.app/profile/atru...

just going on the teevee and admitting it's all first amendment violations

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. It’s a cult.

You learn in school that the genius of the founders was creating a system of government with checks and balances and coequal branches but the MAGA folks don't want anyone but the president to be treated as legitimate.

Fifty years after he was graduated from Princeton University, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell delivered the baccalaureate address at his alma mater. This is how he ended the speech:

For the DOJ, it’s like having to defend a criminal suspect that keeps calling press conferences to brag about their crimes. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Headlines suggesting the president might be an authoritarian....

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. When we fight, we win.

Targeting a private educational institute because it won’t conform its governance and curriculum to what the state wants is…communist.

Olszewski: We’re still learning in real time what this bill even includes. Taking out fees on gun silencers? Making tanning easier—while they’re gutting food benefits and taking away healthcare from people. They’re turning their backs on veterans. It also adds trillions to the deficit.

I agree. What’s newsworthy is that this isn’t run of the mill racism. It’s institutionalized white nationalist propaganda being spewed out of the Oval Office.

The thing about white genocide is that everything the Trump administration alleges is always, in fact, a confession. It’s the most supreme level of gaslighting and I always believed it was a coordinated communication strategy. But now I think it’s idiocy that’s morphed into hate and evilness.

I thought it was going to recede after FTX and boy was I naive

Trump could take a literal shit on The Constitution on live TV and this would be the outcome: 1/3 of Americans cheer 🎉 1/3 of Americans don’t GAF 🤷‍♂️ 1/3 of Americans outraged 🤬 Mainstream media covers Joe Biden 🚨

ALSO THIS IS THE LITERAL FUCKING OPPOSITE OF HABEAS CORPUS

DOGE is supposedly trying to cut government jobs, but the "department" itself is hiring. And they offer government jobs that pay near the top of the scale, from $120,000 to $190,000. Inexperienced Elon hires are making more than veteran civil servants. www.wired.com/story/doge-a...

As a liberal this is why I despise democrats 50% of the time

It just keeps getting more and more like a horror movie

their *lawyer* has also been disappeared now? uh holy shit

I wonder how many lies it will take before the press stops giving official statements by Trump and his cronies the presumption of truth. Days of stories spreading their lies around before the real story emerges. This happens over and over and over again:

Call your senators. This bill is heading to them next and they can stop it if the people speak out. (202) 224-3121

It would be very easy, newsworthy and get a lot of clicks for the national political media to make a "drumbeat" scandal out of the numerous trump pardon recipients who have committed more crimes since being pardoned. They don't do it because they like Trump

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️ They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador. Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose. No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

Sociologists come to shocking conclusion: Trump’s biggest supporters are motivated by bigotry and want him to hurt the people they dislike. (gift link) www.sfchronicle.com/politics/art...

Fun fact: Bruce Lee was born in San Francisco when his parents were temporarily on tour in the U.S. from Hong Kong. Also, that made him American (and a national of Hong Kong). Someone please tell Stephen Miller so his head can explode. 😊

*truth

The bottom decile of the OECD countries in PPP. Essentially, our poor live closer to the standard of Turkey or Mexico than Canada or Western Europe. But sure, all our problems come from them getting too much money.

What’s supposed to happen? If my daughter is out and masked men grab her, claiming they’re ICE, drag her away w/out letting her prove she’s a citizen… w/out calling me, her dad… what is she supposed to do? Does she not have the right to fight back, as we have taught her, to free herself. Run? 1.

It’s a cult

I thought they were all about saving taxpayer’s money

Hypocrisy…

What the actual fuck?

The plan to defund Planned Parenthood would cost taxpayers $300 million over the next decade, according to a leaked preliminary estimate compiled by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO).

“My offense was to think that Hitler is just an ordinary man,” she wrote. “That is a crime against the reigning cult in Germany, ..."

Marge apparently wants back in the spotlight- just saying things to get people riled up. She knows it’s wrong, but she says it anyway because she craves attention.

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

He’s always been right
