Straddles the line here but I think “people on Bluesky were right but extremely annoying” is too accurate of a take about all of us to be upset about

“I was just following orders” was not a defense at Nuremberg. And it won’t be a defense in the future here.

There's always been reason to believe DOGE was hacking govt systems. Now a whistleblower has substantiated it at NLRB, precisely the kind of data compromise labor unions worried about when they sued re DOL.

Just to build on this, one of the reasons the death camps were built in the occupied territories was because the Nazi command knew they were illegal under German law and the nominally-still-extant Weimar constitution

As someone who got to know a LOT of so-called conservative legal intellectuals, there are a bunch of people who claimed that they were just against tyranny and big government who are extremely silent in the moment.

Stephen Miller is truly one of the most craven, awful, horrifying people I have reported on in my life. It is a blight on our nation so long as he has any power.

I can’t blame them. This is what the Trump Regime has done. But we don’t have to accept this outcome.

First they came for the innocent man deported to a Salvadoran gulag on an “administrative error” they falsely claim they’re powerless to reverse, flouting court orders even from the Supreme Court — and I spoke out, because I know how the damn poem ends.

I think a lot of people need to brush up on exactly where Auschwitz and other camps are located. Hint: not in the Berlin suburbs. There is some rhyming history here.

Agreed! So is it time to stop acting in the Senate like everything is still normal? Perhaps now we see Democrats—like yourself—objecting to unanimous consent requests and using the tools available to put sand in the gears of attempt to end our democratic experiment?

I was interviewed today re: the relevance of the Declaration of Independence People think "When in the Course of Human Events" is the imp't part. The preamble. But the meat is the long list of sins the King committed vs the colonists. They believed their rights were being violated by a tyrant.

Please don’t underestimate how much FUN Donald Trump, Salvadoran dictator Nayib Bukele, Stephen Miller and Pam Bondi had today pissing on the grave of Abrego Garcia—a permanent legal resident of America with no record, a US-citizen wife, and 3 US-citizen kids. This is their JAM.

This is a now or never moment. The way we respond over the next few days, as individuals and institutions, is crucial. And currently we're missing the mark. If we don't act now we will lose everything.

Watch the video. This is precisely what Trump did. The response needs to equal the extreme danger this statement creates for our democracy.

Which is why we should be discussing impeachment now. We shouldn’t wait until Republicans are willing to go along. The Constitution provides a remedy for what we are witnessing. It is proper to raise it repeatedly.

Almost certainly an anti-Semitic hate crime. And the President who is trying to tear up the American university system on the pretext of fighting anti-Semitism hasn't said a word.

Stephen Miller is a liar and a propagandist and while there is clear value in understanding what he's saying as a means of understanding what the administration is doing, not a single fact out of his mouth can be trusted.

You don’t have to be particularly sharp to decipher the code here. But if you need someone to say it, this is a major technology company and a sizable defense and intelligence contractor publicly declaring, with only the thinnest patina of deniability, that its cause is white nationalism.

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

When an attempt was made on Donald Trump’s life, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris immediately issued statements condemning the shooting and all political violence. The fact that Donald Trump hasn’t said a word about the arson attack on Gov. Shapiro and his family tells you all you need to know.

A reminder that @60minutes.bsky.social was doing routine editing of an interview. It’s a common practice in broadcast media. Print media also often edits interviews for length & clarity. It’s trump who is way out of bounds. This is dictator talk.

Normally if someone tries to kill a governor, the president is briefed, calls the governor, and issues a statement committing resources to bringing perps to justice. It’s not just that we don’t expect Trump to be kind—we have to wonder if he’ll allow a real investigation at all.

Yep. He paid no price for his anti-Constitutional advice. We keep letting people get away with breaking the law and defying the Constitution. We need to hold lawbreakers accountable.

I'm a lawyer and this is correct. Straight line of "blatantly illegal constitutional end-runs to violate human rights" from Iran–Contra to Gitmo to CECOT paved by the only consequences the perpetrators suffering being more money, more power, and more prestige.

I hate to be that guy, but this is the five-alarm fire, and every elected Democrat and frankly, every Washington reporter should be ringing the bell. If it can happen to him, it can happen to anyone. Nobody with a voice should give this administration a moment’s peace about it.
