Wire taps, chaos in Pentagon and prayer meetings in Government offices. The creation of chaos to avoid 🥃Pete held responsible. Trump doesn’t care, he’s raking in billions.

I’m only a Juris Doctor, but I diagnose Don Jr. as being a soulless moron.

Indivisible Stamford spells it out!

Morning Joe and Don Jr ain’t that different

my “not the gestapo” shirt is raising a lot of questions already answered by my shirt and if you don’t stop asking them, i’ll have you disappeared.

Even the courtiers who most convincingly play the part of sycophant privately know the emperor has no clothes.

I'm filling in for @justinglawe.bsky.social at @americandoom.bsky.social for the next few weeks. In my first piece, I cover the recent arrests of a judge and a mayor, as well as the threat to arrest a city councilperson, and what that all says about the moment. www.american-doom.com/p/even-mayor...

The US loses out on $1,000,000,000,000 (1 trillion dollars) in unpaid taxes every year due to rich tax dodgers. Pretty sure the post office and foreign aid aren’t the problem here.

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc. And get the money out

This is a political time to wake up EVERYDAY prepared to Speak Truth to Power!

NEW: Farmers are dying by suicide at the third-highest rate by vocation in Utah. But after a federal program offering mental health support ran out of money, the state did not continue it. By @jessicamiller.bsky.social, with @sltrib.com

NEW: Facing a significant increase in the number of SpaceX launches, British officials detailed their concerns about the safety of Turks and Caicos and other Caribbean territories after debris from an earlier failed launch littered beaches and roads. By @heathervogell.bsky.social

100% this. Rep. DeLauro delivers the most succinct summary of the ways in which RFK Jr. and the Trump White House are breaking the law (Impoundment Control) that I've seen so far.

Sergio is harvesting tangerines in Dinuba CA. He shares: This is very hard work. The bag I carry weighs around 50 lbs when full and it's not easy going up and down ladders with it. I'm paid by the piece and earn $55 for each 1000 lb bin I fill. #WeFeedYou

🚨Trump is ripping away taxpayer dollars from blue states like mine for critical Army Corps projects that support foundational water infrastructure. He is defunding the Howard Hanson Dam to the tune of nearly HALF A BILLION DOLLARS. This is some corrupt BS. I'm fighting back.

This is pure evil. We watched and read dystopian fiction about this stuff. Here they are doing it in real life.

NEW: Denver Mayor Mike Johnston says he wants the city’s vehicle tracking cameras to remain in use, but with safeguards to prevent ICE from accessing the data. @marcsallinger.bsky.social reports for @nexton9news.bsky.social

This is not a serious administration and it’s also filled with bad people

What a Trojan Horse looks like in the year 2025:

Kristi Noem: "With all due respect, Senator, that's a ridiculous question about our budget. Do you have any idea what my costumes alone cost?"

I agree with pretty much everything this intelligent human being says to be honest!

The. More. You. Know. 💫

NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted. Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%. If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?

It's obviously "not all parents" -- I'm currently reporting on many parents who desperately want to be at home, but they are offered prison and jail instead.

This is Trump’s America on this Mother’s Day. This is the GOP’s lawless, merciless shock-and-awe campaign against not just illegal immigrants, not just undocumented people, not just criminals, but against families, children, spouses, fathers, mothers. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-hell-wi...

The fascism playbook hasn't changed—only the speed we're flipping through its chapters.

Love thy neighbor doesn’t come with fine print.

“The controversial 1,000-bed facility is owned by the private prison company GEO Group, which entered into a 15-year, $1 billion contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in February.” $1 BILLION dollars lining the pockets of a private prison company. www.insidernj.com/baraka-arres...

MAGA influencers are demanding that Attorney General Pam Bondi arrest and prosecute a MeidasTouch host—for the “crime” of reporting the news. If they think intimidation will silence us, they’ve got another thing coming.

FIXED THE HEADLINE: President Wacko, trying to cover his screwup, says China tariffs should be 80% — then punts to Bessent, who’s also a hot mess. NEWSFLASH: 80% is still many times higher than before Trump lit the trade war fuse.

Another intelligence loss for the U.S. Ally Denmark likely to stop sharing intelligence. For no gain. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/08/w...

WATCH: Chris Murphy gives a masterclass in how to dismantle the cosplay queen, AKA Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem.

Donnie No Deals is at it again

I once met with a Missouri libertarian who was actively trying to defund public schools, and I asked how that would impact his own children. He has nine. He told me he homeschools them. I said you homeschool them? He said well, my wife… Yeah.
