Senate Republicans have NO COURAGE. Disgraceful that they approved Kash Patel as Head of the FBI.

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

The hypocrisy of Pete Hegseth cancelling Diverstity, Equity, and Inclusion stating that all people will be hired for their experience/merit/aptitude is sadly laughable. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

“Mark my words. … They are going to basically tell the U.S. Marshals Service, do not enforce any of these orders, we will not obey them, … and, once that happens—I hope it doesn't … but I know in my heart that it will—our 236-year experiment … in American constitutionalism, is over.”

It's literally insane how the right has been parroting a "deep state" conspiracy theory only to create a real shadow government led by Elon Musk and Project 2025.

CNN really ran Acosta off-air because they want to preemptively capitulate to authoritarianism. Amazing.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat. I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.
