Trump can try all he want to pretend he is some kind of victim of Musk’s insanity, which is clearly the strategy. But he enabled and bearhugged and took all that dough. Dems cannot allow Trump to decouple him from Musk, now or ever.

Oof

Fake emergencies to justify crackdowns-not very original

My dad, who has lived under a dictatorship, knows one when he sees one. His first text this morning is that we are now officially in a dictatorship. It is all pretty grim.

This story exemplifies the reason people are outraged at ICE. This guy did nothing wrong. He broke not a single law. He was a guard at a base that housed US troops. He came here legally through humanitarian parole. He had an asylum application pending. Yet the Trump admin had ICE grab him anyway.

👀 @johnfugelsang.bsky.social : “Ever notice nobody hates other Americans more than Americans who boast how American they are? Cali gives $80 BILLION more than it takes... This isn’t even legal. The only thing he hates more than the new testament is the constitution.”

Terry Moran told the truth.

I have never seen Stephen Colbert have so much fun and I'm HOWLING! 🤣 youtu.be/1k1lOINq51c?...

Aww, yet another rich white Republican congressman feeling oppressed! youtube.com/watch?v=Qs-2...

In the 42 years since the start of the Reagan revolution, bought-off politicians have so altered our tax code that fully $51 trillion has moved from the homes and savings of working-class Americans into the money bins of the morbidly rich money hoarders. https://trib.al/O1jiyie

This report is shocking to read Facebook+Instagram could be doing this while Meta defends itself of allegations related to privacy in antitrust trials in DC and CA, FTC consent decrees in billions and FTC show cause order to stop surveilling minors. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Taking away life-saving medication from millions of the world's poorest children, with no notice, is one of the most monstrous things our government could do. Never forget it.

Every reference to these guys should note that several remain adjudged terrorists. Even Trump didn’t disrupt that ruling from a Trump appointed judge.

Amazing. Respect the lede.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Supreme Court allows DOGE team to access Social Security systems with personal data on millions of Americans for now.

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

Great talking to @aaronparnas.bsky.social today about the how, what, when, where, and why of No Kings Day. Give it a listen and keep boosting independent media! aaronparnas.substack.com/p/breaking-a...

Bitch you're the only person talking about this shit! This is letting the other side dictate the debate! We've been beaten over the head with Alexander Hamilton quotes for a decade and yet party leadership still hasn't internalized the easiest thing: "Those who stand for nothing fall for anything."

My advice to Democrats would be to stop letting Republicans set the terms of debate, start making it clear you’re acting on principles instead of polls, and fire Rahm Emmanuel into the sun.

It's really a pity that if Joni Ernst had to make a video in a cemetery, she didn't take time to have her cameraperson show all the tiny tombstones in the older sections of children who died before there were vaccines available for what killed them. That at least would have been useful.

Sorry but Schumer is busy chatting in the gym w/his right wing buddies while they’re destroying America & Jeffries is focusing on the decorum levels in the House & making sure no D flys to El Salvador to fight for human rights. You know, priorities of the feckless.

There’s always a faction of people w/authoritarian tendencies but usually other forces keep them in check. MAGA supercharged & empowered these fascists while they systematically removed all guardrails & turned remaining R’s into radical right wing nuts.

Right now, Muslims in Gaza are supposed to be celebrating Eid al-Adha. Instead of feasting, they are starving. Instead of gathering with their loved ones, they are burying their children. Netanyahu and the IDF can end this misery ANY time by agreeing to a ceasefire and allowing aid into Gaza.

The Democrat Blue states pay federal taxes to the Fed who in turn distributes those tax dollars to the Republican Red states. As a result the Blue states get a lesser return and help the Red states with their expenses. Why should the Blue states pay if they are threatened by the Fed? Please tell me.
