So Trump’s pet autocrat is in business with MS-13? Of course he is.

This is my favourite protest song so far. Music by AI. Lyrics by me. AI admitted lack of intelligence when it came to meaningful texts. I don't want to toot my own horn, but this ditty caused me a speck in my eye. 🤪🤣😜😙 youtu.be/N2PF3xEvhEs?...

Damn 💔

This is... not how any of this is supposed to work. The military needs to be non-political. Checking soldiers for their loyalty to the President is offensive.

Trump and Hegseth are actively and overly turning the US military into a partisan political force in violation of the Constitution, and Republicans in Congress will say nothing as another pillar of the Republic comes crashing down.

The same people who shoveled money to a settle bogus case with Trump, have now fired Terry Moran for telling the truth. No one should wonder why viewers are abandoning legacy media in droves. www.cnn.com/2025/06/10/m...

Hegseth appears all too willing to put troops in a situation they should not be in, where they risk becoming political pawns in the administration’s attempt to foment a crisis that will enable the president to assert even greater executive power. bit.ly/4jGDpnS

In other words, Trump is actually inflicting this needlessly on members of the military. We should understand it in those terms, as an act of malevolence and depravity *toward them* as well.

I know everyone's been breathlessly waiting for what I was going to write about LA. here you go - gifted www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

"Donald Trump is demonstrating what happens when our sense of ourselves as a singularly exceptional nation, unbound by the rules that govern everyone else, is transferred from the nation to one man." www.nytimes.com/2025/06/08/o...

Bernie Sanders: "We have a president who is moving this country rapidly toward authoritarianism...to a large degree the future of this country rests with a small number of Republicans in the House & Senate who know better, who do know what the Constitution is about, and it's high time they stood up"

In preparation for next week’s parade/demonstration, tanks are being moved into Washington, DC today. Unprecedented. (Photo from a colleague in DC)

A birthday parade to honor a fascist, four times draftdodger—on our dime. 🎊

I got no popcorn left at this point.

Trump echoed Putin’s threats and invited him to mediate nuclear talks with Iran—the same Iran that supplied Russia with weapons to bomb Ukrainian cities, as Russia actively helps Iran advance its nuclear program.

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

Muzzle velocity of idiocracy.

"if you wanted to find a way to really destroy American manufacturing, what you would do is figure out a way to jack up the cost of steel for American manufacturers."

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

“How, then, can we tell whether America has crossed the line into authoritarianism? We propose a simple metric: the cost of opposing the government.”

Even after all this, the @nytimes continues to normalize it

Trump could have spoken about this yesterday to West Point grads - what better place? But instead he talked to them about rich old men getting trophy wives.

Federal employees are allowed gifts of $20 or less per occasion, not to exceed $50 in a single year. Trumps corruption is astounding.

Shameful.

The original sin was failing to send Donald Trump to prison for the rest of his life for mounting a violent coup to overthrow the election of 2020.

The CBO says the current GOP budget bill would add so much to the national debt that it could force nearly $500 billion in cuts to Medicare beginning in 2026.

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect
