The continued reprehensible behavior by Tmurp and his Minions that is going unchecked by the Congressional GOP will take decades to undo. Yet another example of their ignorance affecting all Americans.

Three things made the US a rich and powerful nation: the rule of law, its science & innovation system, and openness to foreign talent. Remarkable how Trump has taken a sledgehammer to all three. No enemy of this country could do more.

Phang: Putting aside the big bullshit bill that just got passed in the House in the dark hours of the night, DOGE has single-handedly destroyed so much of our federal government. We, as Americans, deserve to know why they have done it, how they have done it, and what they are continuing to do.

The absolute disgrace taking place today in front of cameras in the White House is yet another reminder that for all the talk of Joe Biden's failures, the people who failed America the most are our citizens. Empowering this guy (again) was a foreseeable disaster we'll be lucky to survive.

Alert ⚠️ We only have democracy if there is due process, rule of law, justice, freedom & civil rights. Otherwise, we have autocracy. This administration is IGNORING A SUPREME COURT RULING! I repeat: they're ignoring a SCOTUS ruling! We ARE in a Constitutional crisis & it should be headline news!

Let’s break this down—because the gaslighting is wild: 📌Oct 2022 – Biden signs EO to cut drug prices 📌Jan 2025 – Trump takes office and kills Biden’s EO to cut drug prices 📌May 2025 – Trump signs his own EO to lower drug prices Trump canceled Biden’s plan then brought it back w/his name on it.

While Rachel Maddow honors everyday Americans standing up to Trump’s authoritarian regime, she also says the quiet part out loud: the GOP doesn’t care about their constituents—because they think they don’t need them. They serve power, not people. @maddow.msnbc.com @colbertlateshow.bsky.social

Props to Rachel Maddow for acknowledging the "hysterical" and *doomsayers" (me, I admit) as being correct. We screamed warnings of fascism, tyranny, dictatorship...and now it's here. I HATE that I was right. But Trump has no good intentions, he's evil to his core. I don't get how anyone missed that.

I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack. I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

The cat-and-mouse game he has played with federal judges is rapidly turning into outright defiance. At every stage, the government asserts the presumption of good faith and regularity to shield itself from the judicial scrutiny democracy requires.
