Superb piece by my friend @stevenbeschloss.bsky.social about supporting foreign criticism of Trump's America. It's not unpatriotic of us to feel this way. It's a rejection of fascism and an endorsement of the need for freedom around the world.

There’s not a word in this story about the corrupt nature of this dismissal. Not a concern voiced, not a question raised, not even an acknowledgment that he’s the president’s biggest donor and he’s acting as an unelected, unconfirmed tyro wielding unchecked power over spending and the civil service.

BREAKING Judge Daniel Ho has declined to dismiss the federal criminal case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams. He has, however, postponed his trial indefinitely and appointed Paul Clement of Clement & Murphy PLLC to argue against the government’s case for dismissal.

Steve Bannon giving a Nazi salute at one of the biggest conservative events in our country should be career ending. Instead, conservatives are defending and even praising him. Do not ignore this. This is how fascism takes hold. Do not let them gaslight you into ignoring the signs.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

This adds up. He is a Commi Russo sellout

As much as i love many Left-leaning politicians/journalists I think u (or *we*) need to move away from attempting to catch-out Trump/MAGA/Reform/Musk w/ their various hypocrisies. It's not about policy/principle. It's about power. They simply do not care if they said "A" but do "B".

United we bargain, divided we beg.

I went on an egg hunt tonight. I only found them in one store, at prices ranging from $7.99 to $15.99 a dozen. The other 3 stores I hit had no eggs whatsoever. I also saw a $17.99 roll of aluminum foil. Wonder what the inflation-kvetching Trump voters are making of this.

JD Vance is so nauseatingly unlikeable that he’s literally dragging down the AfD’s approval rating

Every day there is a new Watergate-level scandal and nothing happens.

That’s how you write a headline, people.

Look closely.

A federal judge in Washington, D.C. temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s administration from illegally firing Cathy Harris, chair of the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I wish I could be more zen about it, but the number of young Londoners, often on Lime bikes, who ignore and drive through pedestrians trying to cross roads -- ffs. Every time I cycle to work, it makes me miserable to see it.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

i will become a total shill for whichever politician decides to become the joe mccarthy of rooting out silicon valley ideology and influence

It's incredible how short-sighted the MAGA agenda is. Abortion-ban states report more births, followed immediately by more infant deaths and higher maternal death rates than their pro-choice counterparts. Sounds very 'pro-life,' indeed.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

I am part of the 25%. The lifestyle change is worth it. This is the way…

Of all the things he could be focusing on he chooses this obvious troll bill

According to the trump Golf Tracker website, out of 29 days in office so far, trump has spent 7 of them golfing -- that's 24.14% ALREADY. What a fucking freeloader.

Everything makes sense if you see Trump as a Russian asset.

how is hakeem jeffries more out of touch than his 80 year old predecessor ????

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance
