My great uncle was lynched after coming home from WWI because he went to town & wanted a drink and they refused to serve him— a VET who just fought for this country After missing for hours my granddaddy found him hanging from a tree THATS why I protect my peace Every time I shine it’s for THEM

Trump's big trip to Europe for the popes funeral included a disrespectful blue suit instead of black, texting during the ceremony, and then falling asleep.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

We see it, how can we stop it? They're ignoring courts, and the courts would have to use DOJ marshals to enforce rulings (unlikely to get approved). Do we take to the streets in massive protest? It seems that will inevitably turn violent, which is OK if needed but will it work even then?

Wouldn't it be nice if every news outlet that covered the Bukele Oval Office meeting noted: District court wrote: Abrego Garcia "has never been charged with or convicted of any crime."⤵️ Fourth Circuit: The government presented "NO EVIDENCE" of MS-13 affiliation. Abandoned argument before court. ⤵️

This is horrendous!

NEW: A federal judge in Rhode Island froze a Trump administration plan to cut more than $11 billion in public health grants to state and local health departments that Congress allocated during the pandemic.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points. And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

Raskin: Would it be problem for it to be standard practice to conduct sensitive foreign policy on a signal chat group? It just came out that Waltz’s team set up 20 signal group chats for crises across the world… I’m sure this will raise the question on whether he should continue in that position

I’m not saying everyone needs to do *this*. But @booker.senate.gov figured out the biggest best thing HE could do right now. And then he did it. Everyone needs to do *that*.

I've been asked on here what the military's obligation is around following unlawful orders, & what resources are available to them. This article explains the obligation to refuse an unlawful order, with UCMJ citations, & provides a template for doing so.

The Trump regime expands its discouraged (BANNED) words across federal agencies. The list is long Gift article www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Dragging in the U.S. media as a witness and accusing Zelensky of disrespecting the United States wasn’t diplomacy—it was pure narcissism. A leader confident in his position wouldn’t need to stage public validation; he’d focus on real negotiations, not performative grievances.

Erik Prince - Trump’s proxy to open a backchannel to Putin in 2016 and wanted to guard the nuclear reactors Trump was gonna give to the Saudis - wants to build concentration camps.

Courts *ordered* the Trump admin to stop its spending freeze Yet ProPublica found place after place where $ is still frozen -hot meals for elderly and disabled -groceries for those in need -maternal & child health services -a clinic that serves the poor www.propublica.org/article/trum...

“We urge every attorney to join us and insist that our government, a government of the people, follow the law. It is part of the oath we took when we became lawyers. Whatever your political party or your views, change must be made in the right way. Americans expect no less.”

“Mark my words. … They are going to basically tell the U.S. Marshals Service, do not enforce any of these orders, we will not obey them, … and, once that happens—I hope it doesn't … but I know in my heart that it will—our 236-year experiment … in American constitutionalism, is over.”

Marbury v Madison is a seminal case from 1803 that holds that the federal courts must determine the constitutionality of the actions of the other two branches of government. Hope that helps, Stephen.

For US citizens who are looking for health information right now and having a difficult time with how many US sites are being shut down... Don't worry, your neighbours to the north have your back. There's plenty of helpful info on Canada's health sites.

Flood this! DOGE wants to hire people. I suggest you overload their system with fake applications. (This is how striking Kelloggs workers crashed a scab website, btw.) join.doge.gov I imagine Franco, Hitler & Disney supervillains would make good applicants. Spread the word. @altnps.bsky.social

If I were the one who had made up the title of this episode, I would have added “—Or Not” to it. And with some emphasis on the “not.”
