At last, he's at least conjugating the Constitutional crisis in the present. But he should have been doing it in something more like a present perfect...

#DOGE is coming for the libraries. Much like USIP, this is an independent group established by congress. Directors are appointed by the previous director and confirmed by the Senate.

The 2025 Barkley Marathons is over. There are no finishers. #BM100

John Roberts putting up more of a fight against fascism than Chuck Schumer. John Roberts is a piece of shit fash enabler, don't get me wrong. which is why it should be easy for schumer to do better than him. and yet...

i get a nose full of stale milk and mothballs just watching this

I have an Associates in Baking and Pastry Arts, and *I* know it’s unprecedented, anti-American, and anti-Constitutional. From: @npr https://flipboard.com/@npr/u.s.-news-aspd61boz/-/a-HPstBiD0RnCIgO52-naiBQ%3Aa%3A3195441-%2F0

"...popular resistance in trump’s first term accomplished more than many observers realize... most wins happened outside the spotlight.... the most visible tactics – petitions, hashtag, ... marches in Washington – had less impact than... organizing in communities and workplaces. Understanding […]

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

Car radio plays surprisingly aggressive story on Trump ignoring Federal judge. Has audio of ACLU attorney saying “Constitutional crisis.” Think I’m listening to NPR. Nope! It’s CBS radio news on WTOP. #constitutionalCrisis #mainstreamMedia

Trump and Musk are proving everything CRT claimed was true.

I'm teaching my 5th graders how to use drills and drivers right now. We're going to build a greenhouse and grow some vegetables. I feel like the first proto-human who taught a child how to make a stone axe. This is better than AI. All the 'edtech thought leaders' telling me I need to integrate […]

Sitting down to watch “Nope” for the umpteeth time.

My spouse has lived in the U.S. most of her life, but her family is German, she attended a German school till HS, and lived in a wealthy, liberal enclave. Much of America’s shameful past was hidden to her. But we’ve been watching American history documentaries. Soon we’ll start the “Eyes on […]

brutal but entirely accurate review of Balaji's¹ book "The Network State" that is regarded as something of a blueprint by the #broligarchs currently running the country. ¹ Balaji is a crypto con artist who has also been a partner at Marc Andreessen's #a16z as well as CTO of #Coinbase […]

"Libertarians are like indoor cats., They think they're these fiercely indepent kings of the jungle. Apex life experience. Change my litter! Feed me Fancy Feast! They're absurd people. If they weren't rich, we would be giggling at them" #libertarians #seasteading #networkstate #elonmusk

In a very significant development, Indivisible is organizing to have Chuck Schumer step aside as Senate Minority Leader. I will be doing all I can to support the effort. Learn more at https://indivisible.actionkit.com/mailings/view/117130?t=14&akid=117130%2E125319%2EtVHwGu. 1/

[drags chair across the floor] Hi, US friends. Have you heard of the “RVU system” in medicine? If not, stay a minute for story time. It’s a major reason US healthcare sucks so badly. Once upon a time there were some “researchers” at Vanderbilt University who wanted to test a new model of […]

I keep up with the news even when the Republican Fascist actions are making me sick. What makes me feel stronger are the scenes of protest, hearing about plans for protest, reading court documents explaining the total unlawfulness of what Trump and his junta are doing. It is important to pay […]

1) Large protests are sexy 2) Routine organizing, activism, and advocacy is not 3) Single day, large protests are useless when not paired with routine lobbying, advocacy, and activism But if the daily grind of organizing works, large protests are never needed, which makes Americans look […]

Hey, fedi? Chuck Schumer is old and sucks, but Bernie Sanders is older and is fighting like hell. And AOC is great and young, but Lauren Boebert is young and awful. It's not the age, my friends. It's the policies. Don't like racism or sexism? Cool. Don't do ageism either.

Gonna be calling Kaine and Warner *again* this week. Gonna going full redneck and dropping F-bombs on their voicemail because you gotta be fucking kidding me with Schumer’s shit. Dems are fucked either way, so might as well go down swinging and bloody up the other side instead of rolling over […]

"The case is strong for letting Trump sink." - @gregsargent.bsky.social Congressional Democrats rescuing the Republican majority from problems of its own making would be a grievous mistake, for both country and party. Don't validate the White House's illegal impoundment by voting for its budget.

It sure does take a lot of cops to protect Elon's feelings.

Rememeber when Reveal’s Al Letson interviewed Richard Spencer and Spencer proposed a White ethno-state for *after* America died? Yeah, def not relevant to the last month. https://revealnews.org/podcast/a-frank-conversation-with-a-white-nationalist/ #whiteSupremacy #RichardSpencerPOS #DieFuckerDie

Don't ever tell me pressure doesn't work. Every little bit counts. Via Alex Berg: Fox News sic] reported that [#JDVance had to move to an “undisclosed location” due to protests at the Vermont resort where he’s skiing this weekend. For inflicting misery on the world and here at home in America […]

Rural people aren’t showing up in the streets, they’re showing up to confront their representatives. That’s what you do when you don’t have a city boulevard to march down—you show up to the county admin building or the HS gym and read them the riot act. It isn’t sexy like a march, but it’s […]

NGL, not a fan of throwing around all the Nazi comparisons. Nazis are a joke. A punchline in the Blues Brothers or a face to punch in Indiana Jones. Feel like we should compare them to our own American fascism, the one that marched with pride down Main St., burned crosses, and lynched. Remind […]

The CFPB union has just sued Russell Vought over shuttering the agency

I really love Black american culture. But, also more and more I keep wondering why is it OUR job to explain who America is to itself? The work of Black artists does this consistently with precision and clarity. A mirror, a commentary on wherever the country […] [Original post on sauropods.win]

I know the Andre OBEY sticker has no meaning. But when you see one on a vehicle next to an ultra-patriotic America flag saying “We the people have had ENOUGH” it really makes you wonder. #AndreTheGiant #OBEY #AndreHasAPosse #Dissonance

As a rural American, I feel this hard. Citizens of “red” states don’t deserve punishment. Living in a “blue” state doesn’t make you holy. - There are no 100% Red states - Many red states *actively* suppress voters who lean Dem - Large percentages of voters in […] [Original post on cville.online]

Please remember something: if you had said a year ago that Trump would do even a fraction of these things, you would have been mocked, belittled, accused of “Trump derangement syndrome,” and dismissed by certain people. Identify those people and block and shun them.
