Meltdown on Truth Social in 3, 2, 1...

WATCH: “My son is afraid I won’t come home from work. People are scared. They’re taking anybody.” Powerful NYT piece on the NASHVILLE raids by @TNHighwayPatrol + ICE that snatched hundreds, terrorizing communities. (Few had violent pasts) Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DKM1ydH...

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

We're not living in normal times, but don't despair because the Resistance is strong. #Resist

Take a few minutes for this one—because you might need FEMA in the near future, and you need to know what’s currently going on. Or not going on. Thank you, @repjasmine.bsky.social for telling it straight, sounding the alarm, and sharing how we can help.

Christian Nationalists pretend that the United States was founded as a Christian nation, but the Constitution never mentions Jesus or Christianity. Not even once. Instead, it bans government promotion of *any* religion. Don't be fooled by their lying propaganda.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

Sadly I did not know this for the first 55 years of my life. They do not teach you this. This is absolutely true. And we should honor all of them this Memorial Day and always 

‘They say, We leave you our deaths. Give them their meaning.’ —Archibald MacLeish Remembering the fallen this Memorial Day, we can consider our own duty to strive so that our lives and our country are worthy of the price they paid.

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. When we fight, we win.

They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

For Over 3 FRIGGIN HOURS this Traitor did Nothing.......

Class lesson is OVER...Any Questions......🤔

Fun fact: Bruce Lee was born in San Francisco when his parents were temporarily on tour in the U.S. from Hong Kong. Also, that made him American (and a national of Hong Kong). Someone please tell Stephen Miller so his head can explode. 😊

In case you needed another reason to eat ice cream.

Step up, Speak Up

The Constitution disagrees. The Emoluments Clause, part of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, bans office holders from taking ANY gifts from foreign countries. There is no mention of quid pro quo. That is because the Founding Fathers knew that even the *appearance* of corruption promotes corruption.

Jordy Meiselas: If you can be a beacon of truth, honesty, and actually bring facts, data, and receipts to an audience that’s so hungry for information, that level of authenticity will shine through.

Taking a bribe in a very public way doesn't mean you aren't corrupt, it means your corruption is shameless.

NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted. Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%. If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?

This sums it up.

Odd that those criticizing @gtconway.bsky.social for endorsing Diane Seltzer because he isn't a member of the DC Bar, ignore the fact that I have as well and I am a member. Vote Diane Seltzer for DC Bar president.
