@thetnholler.bsky.social It’s Sun 6.29 at 4:15PM PST and @thetnholler threads page is up with seemingly full follower count and post history

CNN's chief data analyst says the takeaway of Mamdani's win is that "Democrats right now are out for blood — they want to take out their party leaders." "Democrats who say they want to replace their party leaders, 62% nationally say yes, compared to just 24% who say no."

BREAKING: SpaceX Starship explodes during static fire test

Let’s talk about yesterday. During a Department of Homeland Security press conference in Los Angeles led by Secretary Kristi Noem, Senator Alex Padilla (D‑CA) was forcibly removed, forced face-down on the ground, and handcuffed by federal agents. Here’s what to know:

Vote for Pedro.

Damn it wasn't just once! It was...8 CONSECUTIVE TIMES!!!!!

Tomorrow is the big day. Our goal: to show the power of the 3.5% rule right here in the U.S. Over 100,000 coalition members and their families will be attending events across the country to help as needed.

From a dear comrade who was kind enough to let me share their video. Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!

Remember this: be unpredictable. “Outrun, outlast… make it impossible for them to justify the cost.” They’ve already wasted $131 million. We are fully committed to peaceful demonstrations, and just as committed to protecting our communities.

Yep. Project Esther. Zeteo reported on this over six months ago. Glad the NY Times is finally catching up. zeteo.com/p/project-es...

Warnock: You literally have, in real time, the leader of another nation-state—in this case, South Africa—there to talk to him about trade, and he’s saying, “Sorry, Mr. President, we don’t have a plane to offer you.” And you see why we have an Emoluments Clause in the first place.

“U.S. consumers will within a few weeks see empty shelves in clothing stores, toy stores, hardware stores and retail drugstores, and higher prices of the goods that still are on the shelves” A Tidal Wave of Change Is Headed for the U.S. Economy www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/b...

Are retailers allowed to say the reason why when store shelves are empty, or would that be a “hostile and political act”?

ICE has begun raiding the homes of American citizens. A widely shared story out of Oklahoma describes a disturbing incident where a woman and her children were dragged into their yard half-naked. Reports are mounting across multiple states of agents targeting the wrong properties.

Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.

We just wanted to keep you all updated estimates are now approaching 4 million. Incredible job pulling this off on a holiday weekend! It was tough to get accurate counts today because small towns showed up in force. Some states had record-breaking turnout we didn’t expect this includes

BREAKING:

If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.

In the middle of a hepatitis outbreak, U.S. shutters the one CDC lab that could help flip.it/eKYt9C Not only do we have COVID ,measles ,and now hep c. Like really wtf is goin on with this shit

Hearing 80%, 1,400, of CFBP employees received a RIF notice today. Let’s be clear: this is an ILLEGAL use of the RIF process. What happened is Trump tried to close CFPB in Feb. A judge stopped him. Now he’s using RIF to close CFBP. No. Gutting CFBP is illegal. The courts must stop this too.

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

JUST IN: Deputy Assistant to the President and "Counterterrorism Czar" Sebastian Gorka says anyone advocating for due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be viewed as "aiding and abetting a terrorist" and be federally charged. (h/t Philip Germain)

DOGE Whistle Blower.

"Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in. The attempts were 'near real-time'... "Whoever was attempting to log in was using one of the newly created DOGE accounts..." www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

I fear for this whistle blower but am so grateful he’s doing this. But who exactly is going to investigate? The doj is positively corrupt to the core. And any trouble these guys ‘could’ get into would be dismissed by trump. truthout.org/articles/whi...

A whistle blower in cyber security at NLRB has disclosed that Doge accessed areas of their computers they had no business accessing. They then covered their actions by not logging their activity. Shortly after NLRB had many attempts to breach the computer from Russia. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

New allegations learning about today thanks to a whistle blower who has come forward to Congress. If he is right... NPR siting more than 30 sources: Sensitive data about US companies, their employees, unions, etc. No traceable records of what they had done. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxtE...

We had the reporter on tonight; @maddow has the whistleblower

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

This. Authoritarians win by creating an atmosphere of hopelessness in order to preemptively suppress mass actions that could effectively challenge their power. Every single public act of defiance plays a critical role in stopping them.

“We must dissent because America can do better.” Good to hear Wisconsin Judge Susan Crawford quote Justice Thurgood Marshall in her victory speech tonight.

This is the 20th straight hour of Booker speaking. This is the energy and honesty we need in a Senate leader, not what we have been getting. bsky.app/profile/atru...

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

The greatest threat to Donald Trump’s authoritarian dream is not the courts — it is free and fair elections. While the courts can stand in the way of his twisted vision for America, they can never completely halt it. Trump knows this. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Make like the South Koreans. And the Israelis. Show the world that we can stand up for ourselves. April 5, everywhere: handsoff2025.com

If you want to know why Donald Trump is becoming more unhinged, the answer is simple: he’s realizing that he does not have the mandate he claimed to have.

A MAGA supporter drove a car into a crowd, and another brandished a taser at peaceful protesters during a Tesla protest—both individuals are now facing charges. In response, we are launching our own investigative team to support local law enforcement.
