His diplomacy was supposed to bring us world wide peace on Day 1.

SCOOP: Trump's military parade is being organized by some of the same MAGA political operatives who organized the rally that preceded the January 6 riot. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

“In an 8-2 vote, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan on Friday left intact its Dec. 30 decision by a three-judge panel upholding the jury award.” Go @ejeancarroll.bsky.social!! www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

Appropo of absolutely nothing, the close friend who complained I was always looking for the silver lining in every black cloud is now disappointed that I'm no longer attempting to be positive with them any time they vent. Evidently, I should just magically know if and when they want a pep talk.

Palmer: Charges should be brought against each one of you AOC: Raising the prospect of charges against witnesses is a form of intimidation is it not? Palmer: I strike those words

Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Isaac Asimov on, "If God is Dead, Everything is Permitted?"

How many CEOs have been arrested for hiring undocumented immigrants?

Hard to believe that conspiracy-monger, disinformationist, and anti-vax activist RFK Jr. had a plan to undermine the nation's vaccine system and did not share that with US senators during his confirmation hearings.

What they aren’t showing on Fox News

Bad week for troubled geniuses.

They want to punish intellectuals. That’s how this shit always goes.

Rest in peace, Sir. Job very well done.

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.

THERE WAS LESS TROUBLE IN L.A. SUNDAY, THAN THE LAST TIME THE LAKERS WON THE TITLE. 76 people arrested then. 42 on Sunday TRUMP'S BLANK CHECK: Newsom sues because memo "lets" Trump use military ANYWHERE even if there's been no violence Get the new Tuesday Countdown podcast: tinyurl.com/4886dx4p

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

“Southern Baptists voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday to call for the overturning of the Supreme Court ruling that legalized same-sex marriage, with strategists citing the successful effort that overturned the right to legal abortions as a possible blueprint for the new fight.”

Oh no! Who could have seen that coming? 🤦

Team transitory was right!

For this, the National Guard was required.

real bummer finding out that literally everything was on the honor system this whole time

The President of the United States is advocating for arresting the duly-elected Governor of California for his SPEECH He thereafter admitted that the Governor of California had committed NO CRIME—but he still wants him arrested Spend as much time as you need processing what that means for America

And if you didn’t vote. You voted for this.

So Mirriam Webster has announced that 'FRIDGE' is an official word in their dictionary now, and sited me as the concept's creator in the definition. Very cool, and weird at the same time. I got death threats over this, cool for it it to be recognized. www.merriam-webster.com/slang/fridge

We all knew there was an extremely high risk that if Trump were re-elected he would provoke civil unrest in order to use it as a pretext for lawless actions he was already determined to take. talkingpointsmemo.com/morning-memo...

Who could have known?

I'm with Terry.

Not the biggest point. But what are they even doing here? Where is this? They're battling over a highway? Even from the perspective of aggressive and even brutal crowd control this is not how you do it. The obvious point that basically they're just trying to gin up these confrontations.

They can't silence us. #pridemonth #harveymilk

...creativity is inherently unsafe...

I think we’ve found the source of the violence

"U.S. job growth over the first five months of 2025 is the worst since the Great Recession. When Donald Trump says the economy is 'booming,' he’s wrong..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

The GOP broke the law to deport this man—then decided to indict him. Court order? Ignored. Due process? Tossed. Now they want credit for “law and order”? Chile, please. Y’all did the process completely backwards. This is Trump’s America: lawless, reckless, and cruel.

Looks like the joke’s on them.

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

A former D.C. police lieutenant convicted of leaking information about a police investigation to the leader of the Proud Boys group on the eve of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, was sentenced Friday to 18 months behind bars.
