I think all they’ve really managed to do this week is encourage more people to turn out for the No Kings protests. Being underwater on every issue before July is pretty impressive.

Awful: News orgs are credulously amplifying the ugly idea that sending troops into LA is good politics for Trump. This gives his lawless abuses of power the aura of conventional politics, obscuring how extraordinary and dangerous this moment truly is. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/1966...

Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.

Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social : “Trump is not telling the truth. Local officials can handle this… we have to point out the danger of what he’s doing in LA while also keeping our eye on the ball as he pushes an unpopular bill that will transform our economy and ruin a lot of lives.”

I’m begging politicians to stop saying “Let me be clear” at the beginning of every statement. “At the end of the day” can go too.

An underappreciated aspect of the generally repressive political climate is that it emboldens the worst people to believe that state power will back them up in their pettiest grudges. That's how you get to neighbors who snitch to the secret police - it's toxic to social cohesion at the atomic level.

This simpleminded clown has obviously been told that the "Golden Dome System," he already announced, can't happen without Canada's cooperation, a country that he has given thousands of reasons to loathe him. Donald is smart that way.

The orange felon pardoned corrupt Virginia Sheriff Scott Jenkins who was convicted of bribery and fraud, now he pardoned Todd and Julie Chrisley who defrauded banks. Because nothing says law and order like a felon gifting pardons to other felons for their loyalty. Pure fascism.

In the spirit of MAGA, Trump’s chef harkens back to a time when white people seized control of the world’s spices, but didn’t use them.

All members of the American military take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. And that is what we are required to do.

Go on anf yell at me for being stupid. I deserve it. I went on Twitter and demanded MAGA answer why it's okay for Trump to golf instead of honoring fallen soldiers. I did get responses, all which called me a "cunt". I guess I should've seen than coming. Duh
