Marco Rubio's collaboration with Russia's Sergei Lavrov and Putin is one of the most disgusting acts of betrayal to democracy and our nation. Rubio has secured his place in history of infamy.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

"they're drinking vodka straight out of the bottle tonight..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

my view is that as soon as the administration froze disbursement of congressional appropriations we entered constitutional crisis territory

this is the sort of thing you post when you’re ramping up to defying lawful court orders

Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"

"In Mogadishu Somalia, the State Department instructed security guards protecting an arms depot from insurgents to simply walk off the site. When the guards asked what would happen to the armory, their government contacts told them they didn’t have any answers..." www.propublica.org/article/trum...

FBI Uncovers Al-Qaeda Plot To Just Sit Back And Enjoy Collapse Of United States

the point is not that it's fast -- the point it that it's systematic. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/o...

"We must steel ourselves bc things will get worse before they get better—but they will get better. It is a fool’s bet to assume that the American people will sit idly by as their freedoms are stolen by a corrupt oligarch & a convicted felon destroying the govt to promote their selfish interests."

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence. He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials. It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH** * Currently paused by Executive Order ** Grant reviews now all canceled www.kcur.org/news/2025-01...

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

They’re nuts.

Kash Patel’s book promotes his “enemies list”—the people he wants to persecute, prosecute, and harass. If he’s Director, the FBI will be an instrument of political revenge and social chaos.

here's today's post: "imbecile guts air safety, then demands to know why a plane crashed" — management-by-vendetta sure is working out swimmingly. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post —

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

PLINY THE ELDER: it says here that roasted millipedes are a cure for asthma RFK Jr: correct PLINY: and boiled frogs fix whooping cough? RFK Jr: also true CATO THE ELDER: and a flock of flying birds… RFK Jr: yes, yes, can predict the shape and size of an infant’s cranium

If the FAA director got fired over a business beef AND there was an air traffic controller hiring freeze despite huge shortages AND a chaotic blitz to hollow out federal bureaucracy, and then within a week the first American airliner crashes in 16 years, you would be insane not to talk about it all.

Guys, I hate to even suggest the possibility, but I’m starting to wonder just a teensy-weensy little bit whether maybe, just maybe, FFOTUS wasn’t totally upfront and forthcoming about Project 2025 during the campaign

The propaganda is shifting to try to get viewers to accept that they are about to be paying a whole lot more for everything

So how’s it going so far?

Hard no. Maybe he’ll say it was just a joke but you can’t put the FBI in the hands of someone who thinks this is funny.

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good. Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Under Trump’s family separation policy, children were deliberately torn from their parents as part of a policy designed to inflict family trauma. Will Trump bring back this human rights debacle, an atrocity befitting an authoritarian state?

It’s hard to think of a more disgraceful way to end a day of national disgrace.

Angles matter.

The Nazis think this was a Nazi salute, but, hey, what would they know?

I’ll just leave this right here
