Our president is such a sullen bully. Massive credit to Governor Janet Mills for publicly standing up for her state, the law, and America. “I’ll see you in court” indeed!

TRUMP - APPROVAL RATINGS DROPPING WaPo: - 53% disapprove of his job performance - 57% believe he has exceeded his constitutional authority - 62% said he is not “honest and trustworthy.” - 63% are concerned about DOGE data access - 34% approve of what Elon Musk has been doing

RESIST

This is how it’s done.

BREAKING: The Associated Press sues three Trump administration officials over access to presidential events, citing the First Amendment.

They tell themselves it can’t happen here. That the courts will save us, that institutions will hold, that this is just another election. But history doesn’t wake the sleepwalkers gently. It shatters them.

Yo DOGE, Found your waste! 👇🏼

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

Here’s how many billions Elon Musk’s companies are making from U.S. taxpayers

Elon Musk is cratering in polls: WaPo: Only 34% approve of Musk's role, 63% worry about his data access CNN: 54% say it's bad Musk was given a big role Majorities disapprove of Trump in CNN, WaPo, Gallup. On the pod, @juliaazari.bsky.social is great on all this: newrepublic.com/article/1917...

“So Elon Musk killed this program for disabled kids (illegally) because it included the word ‘transition.’ It helps them to transition from high school to work.” H/T @palafo.bsky.social, who posted the above on another platform.

I guess Trump’s Special Envoy doesn’t agree with him that Zelensky is a corrupt, incompetent dictator. Pretty schizophrenic foreign policy.

“Ben Meiselas @meiselasb.bsky.social reports on Republican Members of Congress getting destroyed by their own voters at Town Halls because Trump and Musk are destroying America.” - MTN m.youtube.com/watch?v=DAw4...

When the wreckage and dust of what these people are doing to our country has settled and the people have finally had enough to throw these jackals out of office, we will never forget the people who enabled it, despite their protestations they weren’t willing accomplices. Never.

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

Trump looks weak and erratic—selling out to Russia, attacking Zelenskyy, and throwing workers under the bus. Markets are rattled, his approval is crashing, and his MAGA cronies are overstepping. Watch the MeidasTouch Podcast live at 8p ET/5p PT!

Fun fact: while Phony Stark and the DOGEbags are taking money from our veterans, the world’s poorest people and kids with cancer, Assistant President Poopy Pants has already spent nearly $11 million of our money… playing golf.

Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

“It’s no longer just Putin’s Russia that threatens the foundations of Western liberal democracy but Trump’s Washington.”

Words fail.

He’s setting us all up for the funniest possible ending.

The US is refusing to co-sponsor a UN motion backing Ukraine ahead of Russia's full-scale invasion 3-year mark. The US, under Trump, is joining the axis of evil

Jeffries: We’re dealing with a group of people where, for far too many of them, facts don’t matter. Hypocrisy is not a constraint on their behavior. And many of them have actually come to the conclusion that their shamelessness is a superpower. We have to hold them accountable…

NY law firm Sullivan & Cromwell is enthusiastically joining Donald Trump's effort to undermine the justice system. It’s sad to see a firm clients have long turned to for counsel on how to comply with the law rendering itself into an instrument for promoting lawlessness, I diacuss in PN.

“What’s the point of fighting cybercrime if we’re just going to give access for government networks to people with cybercriminal gang affiliations?” www.wired.com/story/doge-c...

So Trump wants to destroy the US government and the US. Then what? What would he be ruling over? A destroyed nation.

“.. We now have an alliance between a Russian president who wants to destroy Europe and an American president who also wants to destroy Europe,” another European diplomat observed in recent days ... “The transatlantic alliance is over.” @politico.com www.politico.eu/article/dona...

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

“There are currently four people remaining over there to do the work of 15 people. The danger to the national airspace can’t be understated." "This is a very real threat to the American flying public.” EXCLUSIVE ⤵️

For 16 years, U.S. aviation had a perfect record—ZERO major commercial plane crashes. Then Trump returned and in just 29 days the USA has had seven crashes, 15 aviation disasters, and 85 dead, on pace for this over 1,000 dead this year via plane crash.

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

You’re not safe in Trump’s America.

This thread is excellent.

This is the garbage that makes FOX a propaganda network. Turd Brain is flooding the media with stupidity and people are reporting it. Stop reposting or reporting every stupid thing the right is saying. They just want to distract you from what is really going on. The dangerous things they are doing.

Calling it the Gulf of America is not technically wrong. Changing it's name without Mexico's consent is a dick move. If you really want to make it correct, stop calling the US, America. And US citizens Americans. That's the real problem.

Zelenskyy: "I will never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia about Ukraine. Never."

WOW: Canadians ruthlessly BOO the United States during the singing of the National Anthem before their game in the NHL 4 Nations Face-Off. Three fights then erupt between the two teams within the first 10 seconds of the game.

“Forget the myths the media's created about the White House. The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.”

“Donald Trump is a criminal sociopath, they don’t want to obey laws and don’t think the rules apply to them” @gtconway.bsky.social on the Trump administration’s plans to ignore court rulings.
