He is admitting that he doesn’t want lawyers to stop him from breaking the law. No one would stop him from issuing lawful orders, so this has to be about unlawful ones.

Can’t believe the knives are already out in the stores. The Ides of March gets more commercialized every year.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social why are you not posting on here first ? You have some great things to say. You are trying some great things. Yet you post on X where 100pct of the replies are meaningless and hateful. It's not all roses here, but the engagement has depth and real convos happen

“Millions of us are used by the wealthiest elites to perpetuate and do the dirty work of keeping systemic racism alive and thriving in the USA. It’s not our place to decide and tell Black and brown people that their reality does not exist.” www.linkedin.com/posts/synerg...

By voting for him you have declared how little we have in common, how small our shared ground of agreement is, and how different the visions of this nation we share. And as much as it grieves me, I’m simply choosing to believe you. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...

He nails it.

Idiocracy was a documentary

Never forget.

President Kremlin Debt.

Governor Beshear, please run for the Senate. We got your back. Every reasonable adult has got your back. We need you. @govandybeshear.bsky.social

Trump is the least popular President in American history

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #00003: Sometimes you might end up just abandoning a project. That doesn’t mean you failed, or that the time you spent on it is wasted. Everything you write strengthens you and makes you better. And even a bad idea may contain something you can recycle.

Ice cream still tastes good in a war, guys. Find the good, too.

So sick of the comments saying it’s the fault of Democrats that Republicans are evil.

This is unheard of in American history. Absolutely insane in peace time.

gulfof.mapquest.com?name=Zelensky+ It’s *that* kind of morning

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

Who is the leader of the Democratic Party? Sincere question.

European Parliament member 👇🏽

Flannery O’Connor’s line responding to her critics “the stories are hard, but they are so because there is nothing harder and less sentimental than Christian Realism” remains one of the coolest statements in american letters

Let's bring the #Bible back

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

There is no space history without Black history. There is no science without Black women. Despite whatever this administration attempts to erase. #BlackHistoryMonth

Imagine that. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w...

The border czar wants the FBI to arrest AOC. A Fox News contributor is calling journalist Mehdi Hasan a terrorist. Elon Musk said everyone at 60 Minutes should go to prison. You all see how quickly we’re descending into madness, right? It’s not subtle, slow, or anything but a premeditated scheme.

Same.

So, it’s now clear that some Americans view movies such as BLADE RUNNER as aspirational.

MAGA accounts and right-wing minions are really trying hard to spin the GOP bringing back hugely unpopular overdraft fees and helping banks make more money as Americans can't afford eggs. I look forward to reading their talking points and spin. Gonna be a doozy. Good luck.

BREAKING: Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier released from prison after nearly 50 years

WTF you doing Zuck?

REPOST if you stand with AOC!

We must not move on from this. What he said here is utterly un-American. You either condemn it, laugh it off, or embrace it. History will remember your response.

Just saw a warning here that the regime is likely to stage a domestic terror attack in order to justify imposition of martial law and the stripping of even more rights. Not long ago, I would have dismissed this as conspiracist thinking. Not anymore.
