If you care about a MAGA plaque on a library, wait until you hear about an illegally-placed shrine to an insurrectionist on the most iconic block in Hollywood visited by over ten million tourists annually, which actually can be removed by the Los Angeles City Council.

Punchbowl News reporting that Trump and Hegseth plan to start firing top generals, including the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, who was overwhelmingly Senate-approved for a 4-year term back in 2023. No one can say they weren’t warned.

Just as Trump stole classified documents, committed dozens of criminal violations against the fucking Espionage Act and nothing happened, he could quite literally rob Fort Knox and this Supreme Court has ruled that’s perfectly acceptable.

Here's further proof that no Board of Public Works vote ever took place for Trump's name on the Walk of Fame. No vote from City Council, either, before the illegal installation in January of 2007, violating L.A.M.C. 28.04(d) and other codes. I have the Board’s minutes as well for Jan. & Feb. ‘07.

If you don’t think you’re qualified to run for Congress, you are. If there’s path in your district, explore it and consider taking the jump to public service.

This guy was once banned from Twitter by Musk for posting child exploitation photos. He spread the crazy conspiracy that Hillary Clinton & Huma Abedin raped/abused little girls & used their skin as masks. Now he’s invited to the Trump White House. No words. You can’t even do an ‘Imagine if Biden…’

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat. Now is a time for courage. www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...

For those who don’t know, I’ve been on a years-long mission to remove Trump’s illegally-installed name from the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Certain City of L.A. emails recently came to my attention as well. ;) The second-largest city in the U.S. needs to act like it, and stop glorifying fascism.

In his declaration in the lawsuit, fired IG Larry Turner says he was chasing down another $135B in unemployment fraud leftover from COVID. So ~$200B that SBA IG was working on and $135 that Turner was. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

@adamschiff.bsky.social just voted to approve Trump’s pick for Secretary of Agriculture. Despite his rhetoric, he has now voted to confirm 5 of Trump’s cabinet members. In the ever-living hell, why? Oh, and he doesn’t have a CA. Senate office as his predecessor did, and his D.C. mailbox is full.

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

This is who, 30 days ago, the Washington Post endorsed for Senate confirmation. Saying that DOJ "filed charges" intentionally misleads people into thinking DOJ took criminal action. It's just a civil lawsuit. Support @atrupar.com and independent media like him.

Is it possible that no reporter who’s reached the exalted position of being assigned to the White House had bothered to check the “DOGE” website before arriving to question Musk and Trump about what DOGE is doing & about transparency? They didn’t know that there’s nothing on the site he’s touting?

@tribelaw.bsky.social not too long ago you suggested (please correct me otherwise) that any executive action from Trump could be challenged on 14th Amendment, Sec. 3 grounds. Why hasn’t anyone presented this argument yet if it’s a legitimate one?

As I have noted previously, lack of candor (under oath, no less!), is per se disqualifying for any leadership position, but ESPECIALLY the FBI. A liar as director will impact the FBI’s credibility in every case where any agent takes the stand or swears to a judge. He has to go

1. Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old member of DOGE launched an image-sharing website in 2021 that featured custom “shitposting” URLs that redirected to content hosted on his site. URLs that redirected to Coristine’s site referenced the sale of child sexual abuse material, racial slurs, and rape.

Reup: DOJ made corrections in several of the lawsuits challenging Trump's attack on govt in recent days. But there are still big disclosure gaps. For example, SDNY told judge Marko Elez was playing with source code. DC has not yet told Kollar-Kotelly that. www.emptywheel.net/2025/02/11/d...

Sec 4 of the 14th Amendment, requiring the US to pay ALL the debts incurred by Congress, both renders the so-called “debt ceiling” unconstitutional and reinforces the ban on Executive Branch usurpation of Congress’s power of the purse — which is now underway as the White House defies a court’s TRO.
