Searching under the house for Bertie

Fact check

81 years ago we began the elimination of naziism in France, a single day that cost us & our allies 4,414 lives & more than 10,000 wounded. I long for the day when we eliminate it in America

Did he have this same “problem” when you gave him access to millions of Americans most sensitive data, and let him illegally take a hatchet to critical services?

The fact that the person who was head of intelligence for the MPD was working giving information to the head of the Proud Boys as they were running around trying to menace people around the city has only merited the most cursory of attention is frankly amazing to me.

www.rawstory.com/supreme-cour... The Supreme Court oversteps its power Did millions of Americans agree to Doge access to private information? No. I. Do. Not. Consent. what are they trying to hide with the second ruling for the FOIA request? They can hide their access but we can’t keep ours private?

BREAKING The President of California’s largest union has been detained during an ICE raid.

I'm tagging every post I see tonight that relates a good reason to take to the street on June 14 (or any other time you can.) Here's the second. #NoKings #Indivisible #50501

Good to see that the exodus and humiliation of Paul Weiss continues.

The US Supreme Court under MAGA control has just allowed DOGE to access everyone's social security information

Just tell me who is going to hire a 79year old woman who has been out of the work force for 10 years? Can’t stand or sit any longer than 30 minutes at a time. Can’t lift or carry anything over 15 lbs. The job needs to be close to the residence and has to be home before it gets dark.

The most interesting clash between Donald Trump and Elon Musk "is the one between two guys who thought they had bought each other off," @dgraham.bsky.social writes:

The well of incompetence has no bottom: "One year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, Thomas Fugate is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government’s main hub for combating violent extremism." www.propublica.org/article/trum...

She missed mom and dad. We took a red-eye home, I took a nap, and she was right up against me for hours.

Trump didn’t “drain the swamp” – he created one unlike anything ever seen in our history, fueled by foreign cash, crypto and pay-to-play corruption. Good job David Frum.

Today’s @wrdsmatter.bsky.social podcast left me contemplating two words: decency, which sadly seems quaint, and “nihilocracy,” which captures 2025 well. Very helpful to clarify where we are while we watch billionaires fight

There is only one way to settle this bitter feud between musk and Trump: duel in broad daylight on Fifth Avenue. With AR-15s.

As entertaining as King Don vs Muskzilla has been, don’t lose sight of who we’re talking about here. Or the damage more chaos atop the US government produces. My latest. www.thedailybeast.com/dont-let-you...

bluesky needs to extend its character limit so i can add more Ls to the lolllllll required here

My "I'm not thinking at all about Elon" shirt &c.

As Trump’s relationship with Elon Musk implodes, the president apparently realizes that *many* former members of his team now hold him in contempt. He's not sure why. Perhaps I can help. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

What would Donald Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill mean for Americans? 50,000 more deaths each year because of huge health care cuts and higher drug prices. All to pay for tax giveaways for billionaires and billionaire corporations. We’re fighting back to stop it.

Trump's abomination of a reconciliation bill is a deal to sacrifice the lives of 50,000 of us to pay for more luxury for billionaires. That's 50,000 deaths a year. 500,000 deaths a decade. Gives new meaning to the term "obscenely wealthy." The rich have put out a contract on the lives of the poor.

Disgusted yet again by my alma mater.

WOW. Breaking news from ABC that has the potential to cast serious doubts on today’s indictment of Mr. Abrego Garcia.

I said this indirectly the other day, but it deserves special focus today. ABC's parent, Disney, capitulated to Trump early on. But ABC continues to get really well-sourced stories, like the one on MDTN prosecutor Ben Schrader's resignation. abcnews.go.com/US/mistakenl...

DOJ Discovers It CAN Actually Bring Abrego Garcia Back… To Face Sketchy, Trumped Up Criminal Charges The most telling detail in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia saga isn't what the DOJ is claiming — it's what a federal prosecutor refused to do. Ben Schrader, a 15-year veteran of the U.S. Attorney's Office…

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

Cutting half a billion dollars of funding for cybersecurity is a recipe for disaster, and leaves Americans more vulnerable to attacks from Russia or China.

"That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy." - Robert Reich #TaxBillionaires

Trump at 2:17 AM: Xi won’t return my calls 😢 So much for the Art of the deal
