The dam is breaking. Sen. Murkowski telling the world that Trump threatens her, and Senator VanHollen keeping the pressure on proves that fighting the Trump crime family is yielding results.

#Russia: We strongly condemn the Moscow court's unjust conviction of four journalists, Antonina Favorskaya, Artem Krieger, Konstantin Gabov & Sergei Karelin, for alleged involvement in Navalny's "extremist" Anti-Corruption Foundation. Journalism is not a crime! Full support with the journalists.

@ritchietorres.bsky.social: "Of all the abuses of Donald Trump's presidency, there is no greater threat to liberty than his complete contempt for due process. Without due process, what stops Donald Trump from wrongfully labeling any American as a non-citizen gang member and abducting them?"

Yesterday’s smug briefing between Bukele and Trump was (is) a criminal conspiracy to deprive an individual (many individuals) of their rights, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 242. Thanks to the Supreme Court, though, it’s an “official act” that is immune from prosecution. Forever.

The U.S. is blocking a G7 statement condemning Russia’s deadly strike on the Ukrainian city of Sumy last week—which killed 35 and injured 117—in order to avoid disrupting “peace talks” with Moscow, according to Bloomberg. This is absolutely infuriating

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Trump’s waiting by the phone for Xi Jinping to call. But Beijing’s not blinking — and they’ve got more than just tariffs in their playbook. They can block US companies, squeeze rare earth exports, dump Treasuries, and hit our farmers hard. China’s playing the long game & Trump doesn’t even know it.

Hopefully everyone’s learned to take him seriously by now when he openly says in public that he’s going to rig elections, so let’s not pretend to be surprised when he does. There are no more days left for Democrats to wait and see what happens

Right-wing elites really did break US Constitutional democracy, the US-led world order, and the economy because they wanted the state to prosecute culture war. Like Viktor Orban. Wanted it so badly that they willfully denied everything else. As @zackbeauchamp.bsky.social found, they admitted it.

Trump is shredding our Constitution and tanking our economy. Thom Tillis lacks the courage to stand up to him — I’ll be damned if I’m going to sit on the sidelines. I’m running to fight for a better future for North Carolinians. Join our campaign — let’s take back the Senate.
