We need answers about what happened on Alderaan and assurances from the Empire that it won’t happen again.

The head of the department of homeland security announced that she planned to use military force to take over a democratically elected government in the state of California and we are arguing about whether a California Senator properly identified himself at the door.

Trump told the MSM Iran they didn't make a deal in time (we had a deal /Pres. Obama, he took us out of it in 2017) Then he told them he gave Israel the weapons that helped attack Iran So the motherfucker who said he would never get us involved in a war, just got us involved in a war

Guess who was right in the thick of the assault on @padilla.senate.gov? Corey Lewandowski. (He may have been the guy instructing that there's no recording at a press conference and seems to have realized how badly they fucked up.)

Is there one single thing the Trump Administration has undertaken that has not turned to shit or that is not sure to turn to shit? One thing that has not made America weaker? One thing that is not causing suffering or will cause it soon?

This is absolutely insane, and criminal. Everyone, especially a Senator representing the state, has a right to speak out. The fact that the agents felt protected in acting this way says everything. We’re quickly traversing a dangerous path

In Donald Trump's America, if you say "I am Senator Alex Padilla, I have questions for the Secretary," you get thrown to the floor and handcuffed.

holy shit -- GOP Rep. Mike Turner tries to "help out" Hegseth by getting him to confirm that the Pentagon does not in fact have plans to take Greenland by force, but Hegseth instead more or less testifies that yep, they have devised plans for that

If you want to know why Trump and Johnson didn’t do funding for the border and deportations as a standalone bill months ago like many Republicans wanted, this is why.

He stood in front of our troops today and gave a mean spirited, partisan speech. He stood in front of our troops today and attacked Americans by name. He stood in front of our troops today and goaded them into booing their fellow Americans. Never become desensitized to this.

Doesn't even qualify this with references to ostensible violence and disorder, just says protest will be met with force. The authoritarianism is more open and brazen by the day.

Access-journalism-focused media idiots don’t get it. Trump saying he loves this fight doesn’t mean the public does. People want stability. They want consistency. They want to be able to go about their day, feed their families and have their careers. They don’t want chaos.

Three things about this comment: 1. Homan is a White House adviser who doesn't have the power to arrest anyone. Neither does Trump. 2. Trump once again acts like he's not in charge. "If I were Tom, I'd do it." Uh, doesn't he work for you? 3. THREATENING TO ARREST A GOVERNOR IS A FIVE ALARM FIRE

Trump deploys U.S. military to the streets of a U.S. city--and threatens to do so elsewhere whenever he wants. And people ask whether he has crossed the Rubicon. Yes, he has. As he's been intending to do for a quite a while. @samsteindc.bsky.social and I discuss. youtu.be/slAY7oxOu-Y?...

Trump is trying desperately to create a crisis. And he will try to do the same thing in 2026 to prevent the midterms from happening. Hey America, let’s not let him.

A lot of these folks think Trump is only kicking out dangerous criminals. They don't hear about the arbitrarily canceled visas and TPS and asylees who are following the rules. Huge messaging failure by Democrats.

Part of me almost thinks the protests should force Trump to play “Whack-A-Mole.” Everyone go quiet in California, when the Guard rolls out they have nothing to suppress. Ramp up protests in another state, and when Trump tries to deploy the Guard there, go quiet, while another state takes a turn.

I remember the good old days when Secretaries of Defense didn’t insert themselves unsolicited into domestic politics on a daily basis. Not what the job is supposed to be about.

For some reason, I was just thinking about how Trump’s former chief of staff tried to warn us right before the election that Trump was a fascist who wanted to rule us like a dictator … and the New York Times put that story on page A12

There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

I loathe Musk as much as anyone else but for a sitting president to openly threaten a private citizen over what political donations he or she chooses to make is a reminder of how authoritarian this country is becoming by the day - by the hour even!

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president. And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be the story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

I’m for the U.S. Army having lots of tanks. I’m against having them in the streets of Washington, D.C.

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade. They departed Texas 5 days ago. What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel. (🎥 DW)

We can't afford cancer care for veterans, school lunches for kids or Meals on Wheels for seniors because Trump is spending: • $1 billion to retrofit a hand-me-down Qatari plane • $330,000,000 to play golf • $100,000,000 to build a new ballroom • $92,000,000 for a birthday parade But DOGE
