He's wiping out your life savings, destroying the Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid upon which you were promised you could depend, ending the medical research that would protect and prolong your life and that of your families & gutting your liberties...and he doesn't care about any of it.

At least the penguins are wearing suits

It would be poetic justice if the NY law firms that sold out democracy got hit the hardest -- Paul Weiss, Skadden, Willkie Farr, and Milbank. "Bankers and lawyers tore up already sparse calendars for deal making, reasoning that no chief executive would risk a big merger or public offering soon."

If this worthless administration could get the Tate Brothers back on American soil, they can absolutely bring back every person they sent to El Salvador.

While we appreciate your assertion that he was a member of MS-13, you have shown no evidence to support it. In this country, under the rule of law, a court makes that decision, not you. You can fire as many DOJ prosecutors as you want, but you still must follow the law.

It’s hard to describe just how far the reputation of the DOJ has been soiled under the leadership of Pam Bondi. Imagine if you’re on a jury or a grand jury in the future & you have seen this debasement, of the rule of law, go on.

Bynum: What they’re trying to do is keep people suspicious of education and keep people undereducated. An educated populace can challenge its government, and they don’t want that.

I'm pretty proud that I can spot mis/disinformation like a trained pro ... oh, wait, never mind. 😀

If a friend from abroad asked me about traveling to the US right now, I world advise against it. That’s where we are as a society two months in to Trump 2.0.

Judge: If the court can't review it, POTUS could say *anybody* - like if a fishing boat with Chinese fisherman came too close - the president could say "WE ARE BEING INVADED BY CHINESE BOATS" and could just deport every Chinese fisherman. DOJ: Congress could repeal or amend the AEA at any time.

The National Weather Service is facing significant staffing cuts and has temporarily reduced weather balloon launches at several sites. These balloons are a key tool used by meteorologists to gather data for weather forecast models.

This pic of mine is currently on display in the Australian Embassy in Berlin as part of the 'Climate Change in Focus' exhibition. Just heard that some photos will be removed once the election is called for reasons of "political sensitivities". Yeah, let's pretend that climate change isn't a thing.

OMG: The DoJ is actually arguing that some people were deported using the AEA shortly after WWII was *technically* over, but because the president said the war was still ongoing, the courts conceded. HOW on EARTH is that at ALL similar to this?

This flew under the radar, but Trump revoked a minimum wage hike for companies that contract with the government. An estimated 390,000 workers will now see significant pay cuts. It's not surprising that Trump's populism is fake, but it's hardly ever been more clear.

King yam tits just directed DoJ and Homeland Security to go after attorney Marc Elias. For those of you keeping score, this is the DEFINITION of weaponizing the federal government.

The parents of an unvaccinated 6-year-old girl who just died from measles in Texas say they have no regrets for refusing to vaccinate their child. “The measles are good for the body... She’s better off where she is now.”

Something special is happening! Bless these people!

The President is threatening to send anyone who burns a Tesla to the scary prison in El Salvador. Luckily, I've never burned a Tesla car and have no plans to. Clearly it's not a good idea! I do, however, plan to never ever buy one. Is that terrorism too?

I am a veteran. I’m a veteran with a very specific skill set and I want to help save my country. I want to use my skills to help my fellow Americans once again. Does anyone have a good project or movement that I should look into to do this? FDT.

Judge Boasberg: "The government has not been forthcoming with information, but I will get to the bottom of whether they violated my order and what the consequences will be."

The two-mile long march begins at 10 a.m. at Guadalupe and S. Brazos and ends at Civic Park. VIA will offer fare-free rides from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Our Lady of the Lake University.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Elon and the DOGE are working to replace federal workers with chat bots. They want to fire Americans and put AI in their place. Nothing could go wrong with a node that can be compromised and taken over by outside entities without a human involved… Fuck Donald Trump. And fuck Elon Musk.

"These mass firings are illegal and likely to cripple important federal initiatives throughout the country..." Next, Michigan AG @dananessel.bsky.social joins @katiephang.bsky.social to take a deep dive on the lawsuit Michigan and 20 other states filed against Trump to protect federal workers.

I just don’t have much to say tonight. This wasn’t good.

Have you given up? Or are you still ready to fight?

Great day!
