Some insiders have theorized that the White House installed Fugate to oversee a pivot away from traditional counterterrorism and to steer resources toward MAGA-friendly sheriffs and border security projects before eventually shuttering operations. By @hannahallam.bsky.social‬

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Fat demented prick who spends too much time golfing thinks you aren’t working hard enough. (Actually he’s just bitching because Juneteenth is a holiday that celebrates the emancipation of enslaved Black people.)

The 25th Amendment depends upon cabinet of patriots dedicated first and foremost to the Constitution and the country. But there are none such as that in the current cabinet, which is full of incompetent Trump-loyal lackeys. They would watch the country burn to ashes to save Trump.

Agreed. It is also unconstitutional and illegitimate because now it is an explicitly political body, not a judicial one. It has been designed by hard rightwingers to enact radically corporatist and conservative - even fascist - policy that could not survive in Congress.

Republicans know tax cuts don’t pay for themselves. Their main goal is to wreck the federal government financially to the point no one will buy US Treasury bonds any more, making it impossible to maintain Medicare and Social Security.

You believe budget numbers need to make financial sense. But the Republican goal is different: To enrich their donors/owners, and to literally wreck the government financially so that it can no longer pay for programs Republicans hate - like Medicare and Social Security.

There is no clearer sign of where we are a a society than how quickly the assassinations in Minnesota have disappeared from front pages. The 2011 Gabby Gifford shooting was a major story for weeks -- with politician and policy implications for years.

We kept being told that journalism was a bulwark against fascism, a "fourth estate". This is the liberal frame for perceiving the industry's worth. But the reality is the polar opposite: fascism has been allowed to thrive, and could not have done so, without journalism.

Maybe it’s just me, but if I see a gang of street thugs with no uniforms or badges in face masks kidnapping someone, I’d be inclined to shoot first and ask if they’re federal agents later.

Agreed. Originally conceived as an agency that would coordinate information and action from among various federal agencies against external enemies, Nazi Kristi Noem is turning it into a modern-day Gestapo to be used against political opponents. It needs to be broken up.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"

It’s actually terrifying that instead of passing laws to require ID & badges for law enforcement @marshablackburn, Speaker Sexton, Jack Johnson & the @TNGOP are going to criminalize transparency and put the law behind masked vigilantes in unmarked vans disappearing people by force.

@jaketapper.bsky.social, everyone is worried about YOUR mental acuity right now. Especially since you can’t seem to focus on the literally insane Orange Sasquatch in the White House who sounds as if he’s about to nuke Tehran.

This is one of the main reasons they wanted Trump to win in 2024. The bosses were desperate to get workers back into a situation where they are desperate and easy to exploit, and away from the tight Biden labor market, where low wage workers were getting double digit % raises. Promises kept!

Had Joe Biden said the same thing, the US mainstream media would have been awash with hours of wailing and gnashing of teeth that Biden wasn’t competent to Ben President any more. But with Trump, the media actively covers up and smoothes over such incompetent lapses.

The US has one political party that tiptoes on eggshells attempting not to offend anyone while the other blatantly lies while calling everyone who doesn't believe their propaganda a slur. If the Democratic party doesn't grow a spine and start going low, we are doomed.
