"The Constitution requires us to all follow the rule of law. Public opinion and the demands of history ultimately will be the most important and most effective remedy" if the president defies court orders, @mawaldman.bsky.social told @npr.org's Morning Edition today.

From interview of Lee Bollinger, 1st Amendment scholar who served as dean of @UMichLaw, president of @UMich, and president of Columbia University. www.chronicle.com/article/were...

The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents 800,000+ federal and D.C. workers (i.e. people directly impacted by a government shutdown), is urging senators to vote no on the House GOP's CR. In other words, AFGE is saying a government shutdown is less bad than this GOP bill.

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

What a wonderful idea…👇 Let’s. Do. This. ✨

MAGA wants peace in the same way a guy that beats his wife just wants a happy marriage.

All federal employees must respond to an email from a Nigerian prince with their bank account number or risk being terminated.

“…it would be a mistake to think of the Don in the White House as the Don Corleone of U.S. foreign policy. Considering where he gets his ideas and talking points and whose interests he serves, Trump is more the Luca Brasi of Putin foreign policy. Moronic muscle. An ignoramus with nukes.”

“Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression”

Holy cow! This public display of stupidity and lack of respect to the President of Ukraine is disgraceful

This is hard to beat, but we have faith that CDC can rise to the challenge with our RTO. We'll be watching for evidence of fever, mouth sores, and skin rash on mango Mussolini in the meantime. You can learn more about the signs of hand, foot and mouth disease here: www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mo...

These laws were never “pro life”

Here’s a good model for responding to this dipshit’s letters:

Trump blames Ukraine for starting the war the way a rapist blames his victim for looking too sexy.

Another fiery exchange from Judge Reyes in the trans military case:

Quite an exchange here between Judge Reyes and DOJ attorney on how "pronoun usage" affects military readiness.

“1488 is a combination of two popular white supremacist numeric symbols.The first symbol is 14, which is shorthand for the 14 Words slogan: We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.The second is 88 which stands for "Heil Hitler" H is the 8th letter of the alphabet”

“We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.” -FDR, 1941

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

Elon Musk is a terrible president.

“The people who now dominate the executive branch of the government …are acting, quite deliberately, to destroy the nation. For them, only a few people, the very wealthy with a certain worldview, have rights, and the first among these is to dominate” snyder.substack.com/p/the-logic-...

BEWARE THE TECHNOZOMBIE APOCALYPSE: Elon Musk’s stormtroopers are hollowing out and replacing the innards of the DOJ, FBI, Office of Personnel Management, Treasury Department, and dozens of other federal agencies with technocrats loyal to him and his frontman Donald Trump. It’s an inside coup.

@maddow.msnbc.com we are living a Monty Python skit

Exactly, thank you @petebuttigieg2028.bsky.social

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
