The Lieutenant Gov of Indiana in 2025 folks: www.newsweek.com/republican-d...

NEW: DOGE says it has saved $160 billion. But those cuts have cost taxpayers $135 billion, one analysis says.

So perfect.

Ukraine did what he asked; Russia did not; and now he will blame Ukraine and cozy up to Russia. This whole peace thing is a distraction from the ongoing war that Ukraine has no choice but to fight because it is being asssulted every day.

7/1/24 - The Supreme Court grants Trump broad immunity from criminal prosecution. 4/15/25 - The Supreme Court is no longer supreme. Impeachment is not an option at this point. Twice done. Twice acquitted by the Republican Senate. They own this. More than trump.

“If you can accept criticism from others with grace and humility—and never try to turn the tables by claiming victimhood for yourself at their expense—you will be well defended against gaslighting,” writes Arthur C. Brooks. https://theatln.tc/C9IaMMRA

Sanders: We look to these law firms who have hundreds of well-paid lawyers to defend the constitution, to defend the rule of law. They were more interested in getting millions of dollars from their lobbying.. They should be ashamed of themselves.

So has the WH actually formally, legally papered the tariff pause or…are they actually still operational?

Europeans don't need ugly American cars. They have governments that are forward-thinking, which provide buses, subways, and high-speed trains, unlike America, which would rather order another aircraft carrier it doesn't need than help its citizens get to work.

Every week the numbers are getting larger and larger We're coming for you fat boy

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

How to leak to a journalist! featuring a bunch of good advice from those who know: @marisakabas.bsky.social @amandabecker.bsky.social @jeffhorwitz.bsky.social @rmac.bsky.social @swin24.bsky.social @juliaangwin.com @benmullin.bsky.social & @maxtani.bsky.social

Here's an amazing tip sheet by @laurahazardowen.bsky.social on how the public can safely leak sensitive + important information to journalists! Please share with the federal workers and employees of shady companies in your life 😇 www.niemanlab.org/2025/04/how-...

This is so great and well-deserved. Nice work, Wikipedians. and go @mmasnick.bsky.social for getting the money quote. Paul, Weiss brought this all on themselves with their craven cowardice. Ugh.

As we begin the week, my law firm is litigating 46 voting and election cases in 20 states. I expect additional litigation to be filed this week.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

The top Republican and Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee are demanding an investigation into how Trump national security officials used the Signal app to discuss an imminent U.S. attack on Houthi militants in Yemen. Signalgate will indeed receive some degree of bipartisan…

Communications sent via Signal are not exempt from FOIA; they are considered records, and only exempt if the FOIA explicitly says they are. Which it does not.

A gentle reminder that people have gone to jail for doing what Pete Hegseth did yesterday. It is also completely consistent with every accusation of the man being an incompetent drunkard that preceded his confirmation. There should be televised hearings investigating this breach. Instead, silence.

“100% OPSEC”

Voice of America journalists are continuing the broadcaster's mission, but their effort is now in a courtroom, instead of on the air. (by Steve Herman)

they aren’t putting up tariff walls to keep us safe from chinese EVs, but so we don’t see the chinese have leapfrogged western automakers

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media. But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

While the Russian Useful Idiot in the White House is busy claiming bullshit wartime authority to further his efforts destructing Democracy, just a reminder that everything he has said is a lie & everything that he says going forward will be a lie. As for his enablers, screw them.

Holy shit! In plain sight…

It just dawned on me that the relationship between Donald Trump and Elon Musk is suspiciously close—and closed—in the same way the relationship between Trump and Putin is. Then I remembered the WSJ report revealing Musk speaks with Putin regularly. Then I understood everything.

Good morning all! 🇺🇦 Please share everywhere. 🙏🏻

And, just like that, the shining city on the hill has become a seedy Atlantic City casino, morally and patriotically bankrupt.

Australian newspaper "The Sun-Herald" opinion piece calls it out. American msm, take notes.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

NOTE: The opponents of DEI are purging anyone who is not a white man from military leadership This is not about merit; it’s about normalizing racism and misogyny

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.
