Trump is defying courts and ignoring the Constitution. That's why I'm taking to the streets on No Kings Day for a nationwide day of defiance. app.sosha.ai/s/viwJ957d

I'm attending No Kings's event, “NO KINGS Colorado Springs” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social

Be warned: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism. https://www.commondreams.org/news/david-huerta-arrested

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.

I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting articles on Bluesky and X, and then testing to see how many people actually clicked and read them. The numbers on Bluesky are higher, both because the X algorithm downranks journalism, and because Bluesky attracts readers, not just shitposters.

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

This is on all the Senators who turned a blind eye and voted to confirm. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/h...

LMFAO 🤣 You just can’t make this shit up. tRump now claiming Biden was executed in 2020 and replaced with robots!! apple.news/ALZIE3Y78RSS...

www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/... Donald Trump announces US travel ban on 12 countries, restrictions on seven | Donald Trump News | Al Jazeera Surprisingly, this time they are predominantly white countries. Ha. Psych. Did I get you? Seriously, the racism is still rampant.

NYT, Page One: “Within hours, he had an email from China, offering to move his lab to ‘any city, any university I want,’ he said, with a guarantee of funding for the next 20 years.” @nytimes.com

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

if the budget cuts go through for nasa, we’re losing juno, which has given us these gorgeous images of jupiter over the years

Tramp continues to silence those that don’t agree with him or dare use their Freedom of speech! FUDT

What are they hiding? I thought they were all about transparency?

Bunny standing up.

NEW: Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Monday that she is directing DOJ to dismiss its lawsuit against Georgia’s massive voter suppression law, Senate Bill 202. The announcement makes this the fifth Biden-era DOJ pro-voting lawsuit that’s been dropped under President Donald Trump.

First step to the burning of books.

Virginia Renee shared this.

April 5th is the #50501 protest!! I'm so happy about the turn out at the #teslatakedown today. We need to do this EVERY weekend!!

every single video I've seen of the hearing today, Democratic Senators (including ones I don't even like) were pounding the shit out of administration officials. if the media will not play those clips, it's up to make them go viral, show our friends & family, etc. They did something. Reward them.

The Atlantic has entered the chat. @preetbharara.bsky.social and I discuss the latest display of hypocrisy and incompetence from Trump’s White House on a new episode of @cafedotcom.bsky.social Insider. Listen: bit.ly/4iJzbfI

The only thing standing between Donald Trump and his authoritarian dream is the courts. But to defeat him, we need lawyers willing to litigate against him. Trump is trying to intimidate lawyers and law firms to stop fighting. At least for me, it won't work. I wear his scorn like a badge of honor.

I’m sure we would be surprised at some of the people who will attend this, and we wouldn’t be surprised at others.

You would think that people who lie so much would be better at it by now from all the practice.

THREAD: Trump just signed an EO about voter registration, but in 2023 the super-conservative Chief Judge Pryor in the 11th Circuit penned an opinion as to why Mark Meadows (and the president) have no role in supervising state elections, and therefore, cannot have his case moved to federal court. 1/

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
