This is Day 15. Still 0 deals.

First off, what the heck is that even supposed to mean? It's just smashing together two unrelated things. Second, this stuff is insulting to Ms. Riley's memory. Mr. Abrego's case has nothing to do with her, why invoke her name except to use it as a weapon; an emotional cudgel.

My dude. He’s a Fox News personality that happened to achieve the rank of Major before resigning after being reported for having questionable beliefs and actions. And he’s always sucked at running organizations. Always. I hope that enlisted military leadership are willing to disobey him.

This is a bad take. You *want* a Military Coup at the Pentagon. The Military is being told to do unconstitutional things, so at this point resistance to fascism becomes duty. Let the Military take control and throw out Trump like Portugal '74. We will demand free elections, and then they step down.

No mention of the danger Hegseth's recklessness poses. Presumes, weirdly, that the only knock against his qualifications is his low rank, as if a post-service career marked by successfully managing a large enterprise (vs failure, drunkenness, trolling, raping & lies) wouldn't have eased criticism.

Looks like Ken is slipping to realms we have seen before. It’s gone from clickbait to rubbish. Dudes following the Glenn Greenwald playbook.

What an asinine, moronic, and irresponsible thing to say.

@aoc.bsky.social @meidastouch.com @meidasjordy.bsky.social @meiselasb.bsky.social @briantylercohen.bsky.social @bmeiselas.bsky.social @chrislhayes.bsky.social and others, please consider unfollowing this fucking crank

This is remarkably good — and effective. More of this, Democrats.

Bacon can't fire Hegseth, but he can stop being a key vote for most everything Trump wants.

love when our billionaire overlords make it so that billionaires can evade taxes by firing irs agents and doj investigators and dismiss multimillion-dollar corporate fines levied before the chevron repeal because they're "unconstitutional" but you poor saps, you have to pay up right now

BREAKING: we won! A federal judge has enjoined the administration's shut down of Voice of America Another success for the Constitution and for us @sddaction.bsky.social & our many wonderful partners & clients More details to follow--stay tuned!

This opertaive is a part of the consulting class that has talked Democrats into being a bunch of spineless wimps with no moral compass and zero courage. Get these people out of the party!

For AI skeptics like myself, seeing what the government is doing with AI feels like validation. I'm not happy about it, but I'm a little tired of hearing about all the ways that AI is so great when we're literally using AI to find dissidents and deport them.

Over on X, a tale of the madness currently playing out with student visas is currently going viral on the basis of an astonishing quote from a judge calling what the Trump administration is doing “Kafkaesque.” The lawsuit is one of Banias. law’s emergency TRO cases and the quote is from 5 days ago.

Days since Navarro said this: 10 Trade deals: 0

New in PN: RFK Jr. is wrong about autism "The Trump administration's attack on difference, the idea that people who are different are a tragedy and a burden and that they have nothing to contribute — that is fascism. And it is a danger to almost everyone."

Trump is signing the covers of Bibles again

He looks genuinely *exhausted* in this clip. Like he hasn't slept in days.

Bukele trying to save face through some kind of “prisoner swap” of people neither he nor the United States has any right to imprison or barter like objects.

What this tells me is that no one asked the embassy to even check with its Salvadoran government counterparts.

Chair Comer denied our request for an official trip to El Salvador to advocate for due process and the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Pretty shameful. Good thing I don’t need Comer’s permission to get on a plane.

Tom Homan on ABC does not deny that the administration's position is they have a right to grab people off the street and deport them without a hearing

DOGE is a few different things. But one of the biggest is take control of the federal bureaucracy and hand out all the contracts to yours and your friends companies. Then privatize a bunch more stuff and gives those contracts to your cos and your friends' too. Smash and Grab, national edition.

Who could’ve foreseen that it would be a disaster to put an unqualified Fox weekend host with a drinking problem and sordid personal history in charge of the military

Trump’s attack on higher education “was a call to action which has been answered by Harvard and .. 100 other schools .. It has also taught an important lesson: giving in to Trump’s attacks is not a sustainable strategy for any organization.” @jeffsonnenfeld.bsky.social time.com/7278903/harv...

Laura Loomer—who recently met with Donald Trump in the Oval Office and influenced the firings of top national security officials—suggests that removing people from the United States without due process isn’t so extreme when compared to the alternative: simply shooting them to death on sight.

"No PERSON shall be...deprived of life, liberty, or property, without DUE PROCESS of law...." The Bill of Rights could not be more clear. No asterisk, no footnote, no carveout. "PERSON" covers you, me, and Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

To those pushing for a "cure" for autism, I'd like to explain a few things to you if you're open to listening... which I hope you are. Autism is a brain wiring difference. It comes in many forms. \1

Hey, John Roberts? The White House liaison to DHS is saying that you have no understanding of law and its proper function and role.

The Washington Post is out with a nice profile of my friend @acyn.bsky.social

Casar: "This message of saying we've gotta break the unholy alliance between corporate greed and corrupt government -- I used it on Fox News live the other weekend. I can use it in rural Texas, suburban Texas, urban Texas, or suburban Colorado. It works."

Casar: I think right now we should be talking to everyone because the fight isn't left or right. It's everyone against the billionaire class…

Chicago. @50501movement.bsky.social

More on this: "The changes will leave Hegseth without a chief of staff, deputy chief of staff, or senior adviser in his front office...'There is a complete meltdown in the building, and this is really reflecting on the secretary’s leadership.'" Via Politico

What makes the Supreme Court’s emergency ruling notable is that if this was any other President promising not to do something, it would moot the case. SCOTUS just sent a message to Trump: “we don’t trust you.” youtu.be/13zKaBtKlo8?...

These are Batman-level villains (the cartoon variety). Not making this up - senior policy strategist "May Mailman" says White House may have mailed its extortion letter to Harvard by accident...but still blames Harvard. Biff Bam Boom

The court’s ruling sends a clear message: no one can bypass the law to raid government data systems for their own purposes. This is relief for the millions of people who depend on the Social Security Administration to safeguard their most personal and sensitive information.

Extending the “border” out to 100 miles of the actual border was one of the most evil things this country did after 9/11.

The Biden administration created the first-ever White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention to protect our communities from gun violence. The office was shut down on the first day of the Trump administration.

Yes, Trump does have political instincts. And you can often tell when Trump senses a topic is a political loser because he claims to know very little about it and starts passing the buck.
