Know why trump wants control of the USPS? Absentee ballots.

This is how it’s done.

There’s some significant overlap in those groups though. Elon Musk, for instance, is a very clear white supremacist, and it would be remiss to leave that aspect out of what’s going on. The US’s innate racism is being leveraged.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

This is probably the most accurate take.

Our team reviewed the entire DOGE website. Nothing they have identified constitutes evidence of fraud or corruption—both of which are crimes. Feel free to audit us. The funds were allotted by Congress, and OIGs regularly reviewed expenditures for fraud.

Doing great 👍

“I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

The sad thing Most people won't remember Danielle Sassoon's resignation in a few months And-even though she was appointed by Trump-any MAGAs who DO will probably think she's a Trump hating liberal But she is the rarest of political animals A Republican unwilling to compromise her principles

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out. Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal. Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home. That. Do that.

“We are seeing the most significant act of principled defiance against Donald Trump's lawlessness since he retook the Oval Office,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on six top prosecutors resigning over the Trump DOJ's orders to drop the Eric Adams corruption case.

god this guy is an idiot. like, a stone cold idiot who sincerely believes that war fighting and preparedness is about having the biggest dick

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

Trump "is essentially reorienting American politics as friendly to dictators and authoritarian regimes primarily, and hostile fundamentally to democracies. It is shaping up to be the most radical transformation of America's role in the world since Roosevelt," says @chrislhayes.bsky.social.

Trudeau: "There's not a snowball's chance in hell that Canada will ever be the 51st state"

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

You can tell a lot about a person by how they react to children—and even more by how they treat the ones suffering from hunger.

I'll go anywhere on behalf of a good cause - and that means engaging people across all the different platforms. Good to be connected here, @maddow.msnbc.com and @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com.

Trump's spending freeze isn't just about defunding programs he doesn't like. It's a deliberate play to overturn 50 years of precedent and give himself even more power.

Scoop: DOGE's Edward "Big Balls" Coristine launched a privacy-focused image-sharing site in 2021 that allowed users to create custom URLs. The URLs that redirected to Coristine's site referenced the sale of child sexual abuse material, racial slurs, and rape www.muskwatch.com/p/doge-teen-...

They didn’t mind “unelected judges” ruling on things when it worked in their favor. Defying court orders = constitutional crisis.

The AMA has a YouTube page where you can catch up on all the fun, ongoing TB & bird flu outbreaks, since the CDC is no longer allowed to do that: youtube.com/watch?v=HlPB...

For a quick sugar high to “own the libs,” the attempts to shutter USAID would do long term damage that couldn’t be reversed for a generation. My latest: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-case-f...

judges famously lack any authority over attorneys

How did this idiot graduate law school

He is describing a dictatorship. One key difference between the US and Hungary has to do with that first bunch of Constitutional amendments.

Veterans Benefits Administration getting into a little good trouble by honoring black history month in an agency-wide email.

My weed dealer is selling eggs now.

The way defamation law is being weaponized in the U.S. against victims, your best shot at making allegations publicly is to get Kendrick Lamar to rap about them

I love this. This should be the symbol of the new rebel coalition.

Disturbing ties between Kash Patel and SHEIN — a PRC company implicated in forced labor in Xinjiang. He has millions in shares and won’t divest. Especially concerning amid reports that DOJ/FBI is going to reduce focus on PRC influence efforts in the US. Full detail below from Roger Sollenberger:

Why? "A separate Bondi directive also disbanded efforts to seize the assets of Russian oligarchs, including Task Force Klepto Capture and the Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Initiative."
