This, in a nutshell, is why the Justice Department remains independent from the White House when it comes to directing criminal prosecution. A country that fails to take to heart the lessons of Watergate ends up with Trump.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

A GOP-controlled state appeals court ruled last week that over 65,000 lawful votes cast in North Carolina's Supreme Court race can be thrown out — potentially handing the race to the Republican candidate. This is what stealing an election actually looks like.

"IRS Predicts DOGE Lost Half a Trillion Dollars for the USA" "in about eight weeks DOGE managed to lose the U.S. government — more or less light on fire — more than half of what goes to all non-defense discretionary spending..." talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/irs-p...

This planet gave us everything on a silver platter to test us. But rather than consuming wisely, we devoured the platter along with the planet and any future this civilisation may have had

Every American should be deeply embarrassed today. USA 🇺🇸 is finished A psychopath POTUS and VP pretending “we want to save your country” when all they do is blackmail for rare earths and ask for “thanks”🤣 youtu.be/z2s2pogllis?...

They don’t have to remove the entire “End Racism” from the end zone; just change the “R” to an “F”…..

There is no more important story that needs your attention than the fact that the GOP is trying to steal a North Carolina Supreme Court seat. Please watch, share, and take action. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzh1...

@kalianebradley5.bsky.social This fiction-lover for 50+ years is currently enthralled by “The Ministry of Time”! One of the most imaginative works I’ve read since “100 Years of Solitude”!

Hard to believe, but here we are.

Nothing is more indicative of how authoritarian the political culture of the GOP has become than the fact that over the past few months its elected leaders have basically turned it over to an unelected rich guy who has threatened to primary them if they disobey orders. And no one has complained.

Important from Sen Chris Murphy: He says Dems are not functioning as an effective opposition to Trump's accelerating authoritarianism right now, and that this is dangerously complacent. I pushed him on this, and we had a long exchange. In these four screen caps: newrepublic.com/article/1895...

This podcast from @andreapitzer.bsky.social is one of the best things I’ve listened to since our disastrous election. Highly recommend.

BREAKING: House Speaker Mike Johnson announces that male Republicans neutered by Donald Trump may continue to use the men's bathrooms.

@rbreich.bsky.social Robert, your post on Substack this morning was so insightful-thanks!

Charlie Sykes sums it up nicely.

Anyone else watch Joe and Mika this morning? (11/18) Listening to them try to be reasonable about our political nightmare was pathetic; understandable, but still, after months of their warnings, now to hear them trying to “diplomatic”…FFS!

My first post will just be a simple picture I shot at the Occoquan Preserve…
