Dude's wanted a military parade for himself for years and he finally makes it happen and turnout is worse than at a medium sized city's farmers market on a rainy day while like 2% of the entire country went out to protest his bullshit

He missed the deadline to submit a single form 10 years ago, amidst family grief when his wife suffered a stillbirth. He did nothing illegal. Paid his taxes, completed citizenship documentation. But once you activate a police state, they don't care about individual circumstances.

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

I also had those experiences.

“America failed America. We blame Joe Biden because he was the last link in the chain and because it’s safer than coming to terms with the reality. And because Biden is fading while the reality endures. It’s safer to lay the blame at his feet.” www.thebulwark.com/p/joe-biden-...

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

"It’s the media’s responsibility not to leave the public with a false impression," writes @sulliview.bsky.social on the newsroom tendency to put misleading headlines to Trump stories, leaving more nuanced truths to the 8th paragraph. The oversight enables Trump spin ... at democracy's expense.

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Has a light come on in at least a few attics?

The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E

Your friendly reminder that it is literally a federal felony punishable by up to five years in prison for the President, Vice President, or any employee of the White House to directly or indirectly ask the IRS to open an investigation into any specific taxpayer.

Actor John Lithgow Reads 20 Lessons on Tyranny, Penned by Historian Timothy Snyder www.openculture.com/2025/04/acto...

im sorry to be so divisive and partisan but i dont think the government should be inventing a criminal history out of thin air to justify sending someone to a concentration camp in a foreign country

All this "fraud" and yet still not a single fraud charge filed.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

As the economic news keeps coming out over the coming weeks keep one thing in mind: this is the fault of one man and didn’t need to happen.

I didn’t want this to happen. I voted for the smart black lady.

Tommy Tuberville appears to be both a liar and a fool. Who are his loyal followers?

Spot on from Iain McGilchrist.

Long term harm will be the least noticeable but the most devastating.

Thank you, Wisconsin voters, for showing up and helping justice and laws prevail. Here to DEMOCRACY 💙 #Wisconsin #voters #Democracy #USA #Laws #SupremeCourt #WeThePeople #Win #Constitution

At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"

Rubio and Hegseth have installed this twenty-something DOGE affiliate, Nate Cavanaugh, as acting president of the U.S. Institute of Peace, per filing. Before DOGE took control of USIP, the duly appointed president was George Moose, a career diplomat who first joined the foreign service in 1967.

Full Orwell indeed!

This administration is evil and we must laser focus on them by continuing to call them out… Don’t be an accomplice.

The extent of sea ice blanketing the Arctic this winter fell to the lowest level on record, researchers announced this week, an ominous signal about the effects of climate change in the world’s fastest-warming region.

We interrupt this doomscrolling to bring you bloomscrolling. 🌱 #RoseWednesday #Gardening

Indeed, Thank You.

I know it bothers you as much as it does me that journalism as an institution can’t process that what it’s seeing on a daily basis is evil people doing evil sh*t Not incompetence, not naivete, not negligence, not mispeaking, not mixups, not miscommunications: straight-up evil people doing evil sh*t

There are real people being harmed in real time. But I guess if it isn't someone the cult members know, it doesn't count.

An astute observation.

💯 — not to mention the guy who chose them all

According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact it’s specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. He’s lying. @markwarner.bsky.social

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING Democrat James Malone DEFEATS Republican County Commissioner Josh Parsons in the special election for Pennsylvania SD-36 — FLIPPING a district Trump carried by 15.4% in the 2024 election. A huge upset victory for the Democrats.

This is what happens when you have a secretary of defense more interested in haircuts, transgenders, DEI and all the other distractions he's been laser focused on, than doing his job of protecting the lives of Americans.

Another example of the endless flood of nonsense flowing out of the Trump White House designed to confuse and distract..

The guy whose daddy bought his way into Wharton, the guy whose grades were so shitty he's never disclosed them – that guy just destroyed the Department of Education. This is what dystopia looks like. This is what Fascism looks like.

Just goes to show: No amount of money can buy some people even a single clue

So Trump is now saying he didn't sign the Alien Enemies Act after originally saying he signed the Alien Enemies Act 🤔

But who is listening?

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall. I will never bow down.

America was founded on the concept of checks and balances, but Republicans in Congress are bending the knee to those who seek to gut our government from the inside out. We have the power to stop the cessation of power to Donald Trump and Elon Musk. I urge a no vote on the CR.
