It’s astounding to me how the msm continues to fail all of us

Literally the Russian flag in the post. Two of them

The parade is neither a roaring call to patriotism or tyrannical show of might. It's something much worse--boring

“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country

Hello from Berlin where a few hundred Americans are outside the embassy, currently reading aloud from the Declaration of Independence. #nokings

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.)

Funded by your tax dollars.

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?

Hi, yes, I'd like a refund on 2025.

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.

lol. he's such a sad baby. he had his communications office send out a press release that people clapped for him.

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.

Double.

Business fascism is a thing, apparently. At least Elon thinks it is.

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

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.

People, we are nearing the end of civilization.

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.

This is what it looks like without a United States Congress.

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

And suddenly, no one's talking about the Epstein files any more.

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.

The Secretary of Defense just threatened to use Marines from Camp Pendleton against Los Angeles

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

Fake emergencies to justify crackdowns-not very original

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."
