Trump has dropped over 100 enforcement actions against corporations. That includes 10 corporations that have donated to or allied with him — like SpaceX, crypto corporation Coinbase, and private prison corporation GEO Group. This is corruption of the highest degree.

Despicable that a 90 year old holocaust survivor has to stand up to our tyrannt times. But what conviction. bsky.app/profile/zen4...

This is real bravery. Not the bullshit posing by Trump, Homan, and the Republican Party.

"A terrified young student, snatched off the street by a masked police force taken thousands of miles across the country without anyone knowing. It is as flatly authoritarian as anything we have ever seen in this country," says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk's detention.

Being snatched off the street for your opinions. I'll say it again. We are deciding, right now, whether the aspirations we hold for this country are finished. Whether we're going to let these hoodlums and grifters throw what's left of the American idea into the garbage for their own profit and gain.

Dems need new leadership. Schumer and Jeffries are not up to the moment. AOC is the future we need right now. And blessed be Bernie who at least will not fucking stop fighting. 🙏

When the government can “disappear” people without explanation we are no longer in a democracy.

The news media are focusing on how Trump is abusing federal workers and depriving the American people of vital services as he vandalizes government agencies. But the media need to say more often that these actions are ILLEGAL.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

30,000+ in Denver trying to save our democracy. Please join us.❤️🙏

So obviously people are noticing and not pleased with the Trump Elon agenda

Apathy is the enemy

So shocking to see much of what I admire about a country dissolve. Many warned that civilisation is a thin veneer kept together by the good will of a small number of people, holding down a seething mass of forces. I accepted this as a theoretical point but didn’t expect to see it in practice.

The wealthiest man in the world has fully purchased the federal government of the United States. This is one of the most extraordinary crises in the history of this country and you need to ask whether your elected representatives are acting like it.

It's been said about Adolf Gruenbaum, the Jewish philosopher, that he was asked why he never changed his first name. He said, that bastard stole so much, murdered part of my family, I'm not going to let him steal my name too. This feels important. Don't let them steal your joy,humanity, identity

Judge Chuang: The Trump admin's "actions harmed not only Plaintiffs, but also the public interest, because they deprived the public's elected representatives in Congress of their constitutional authority to decide whether, when, and how to close down an agency created by Congress."

For those folks who have been waiting to climb the pole and ring the “constitutional crisis” bell, it would appear we have arrived. Neither Judge Sorokin nor Judge Boasberg believed that he was signing a meaningless order, and both judges demanded compliance that never came.

The best response to the orange turd attempting to rename the Gulf of Mexico is MoonPie announcing it had renamed the state of Florida “MoonPieTown.” Because “we can just do this now!”
