Timothy Snyder (Yale University) @timothysnyder.bsky.social gifted us 20 Lessons on Fighting Tyranny. Special thanks to John Lithgow for an inspired reading I will post 2 lessons each day. youtu.be/cXR5HLodsT8 The full text of all 20 lessons is here snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

1) Shanghai a young man. 2) vet by checking his skin color & tats. 3) put him in a vessel in manacles with a hundred other similar captives. 4) make a deal with a buyer & get paid. 5) deliver the goods. 6) argue in court... Oh we can't return him, he's no longer ours. SLAVERY! Never forget!

..."You traveled to Washington to surrender before you had even begun to fight". Just what a prospective client doesn't want to hear about their new law firm. Paul, Weis, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP is forever stained a sickly orange color. cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thu...

Thank you Sen. Cory Booker @booker.senate.gov for an energetic, lucid, sober, and inspiring 25+ hour speech. Your message is critical for ***all citizens***. Your good trouble is needed and recognized.

Go Sen. Booker @booker.senate.gov Go! This is more than just a stunt. The message is critical for ***all citizens***. See the live feed. www.youtube.com/live/rCUK2Vb...

R Flouride Kennedy is hurting and perhaps killing kids by letting measles run wild. Then he compounds the pain and suffering by encouraging desperate parents to dose victims with toxic levels of vitamin A. In normal times, this would be felony child abuse! www.idse.net/Viral-Infect...

Thank you @schiff.senate.gov for shining a light on the lowest of the WH Clown Club. witkoff and vought and musk and putin are the pupet masters pulling the orang idiots strings. youtu.be/MDhqaoe7f80

www.npr.org/2025/03/27/g... "This strategy is designed to impugn the integrity of the federal judicial system and blame any loss on the decision-maker rather than fallacies in the substantive legal arguments presented." Thank you Judge Howell

Here is the original article in Der Spiegel about exposed accounts of WH clowns who probably used them for classified or NARA controlled communications. We need to look for accounts used by all WH clowns. Copy and archive evidence! www.spiegel.de/internationa...

Attention white hat hackers..... Crank up your machines and archive as much as you can on ALL SUBJECTS. Have this available to investigative reporters now and prosecutors after the orange regime has been thrown out.

Thank you @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social for releasing the signal-gate text chain. It shines a light on the ignorant, demented, self entitled, moronic ideas that are the WH clown show. Their response shows they are scared of what else they are hiding by using signal. INVESTIGATE

The Whitehouse clown show using signal got caught. Why are they not using normal secure comms? Because they are hiding and purposefully staying off the record. Why.... I hate to think what awful hateful acts they are committing. It's just the tip of the iceberg.

Columbia U capitulated to Orange Idiot. They have an endowment fund of $14.8B. The $400M in federal funding being held hostage is 2.7% of the fund. Typical annual 'burn rates' are 3-5%. 2.7% for 4 years would not hurt too much. Small price to pay to tell WH to F* off and keep your integrity.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social posted on youtube with @glennkirschner.bsky.social speculating that the DOJ might run out of lawyers as they are removed by BAR ethics and conduct boards. They admit that the actions of the Paul Weiss firm may signal there is more canon fodder. youtu.be/zjDvw2repuA

Ruth Ben-Ghiat @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social has been scary accurate making comparisons of history to today's onslaught by the orange idiot. This evil is happening again in the usa. open.substack.com/pub/lucid/p/...

I am all for amplifying the messaging supporting the democracy movement, but I worry that this is more preaching to the choir. I challenge people to come up with innovative was to explode the maga media bubble. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Get involved! The April 1 election in Wisconsin for Supreme court justice is the first big test. Musk is blatantly trying to buy the election. Check out No Lie video youtu.be/zh9xI_VFhjc?... www.peoplevmusk.com

All this talk about constitutional crisis as if it's a binary switch... No, it's a continuum that started on November 6th and will end with a ruling from SCOTUS. The further we go the more consequential the decisions. RESIST... www.democracydocket.com/analysis/wha...

Let's see, HONEY coupon clipping app is a PayPal creation. PayPal is a Thiel and Musk creation. Any wonder that it's a scam, actively usurping millions from independent creators & influencers. www.pcmag.com/news/google-...

Oh, but they are so happy when it's a judge in back-water Texas rulling on women's rights or abortion pills! Hypocracy used to count for something, but no longer. Still it's worth pointing out.

Hey lawyers.... Here is a no-brainer case for someone to pick up and run with. Make yourself a name and a share of the pay out. trusk screwed up big time and needs to pay damages! Make it happen.... www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Judge William Alsup has shown a bright light on the unlawful, destructive, authoritarian, and trumpian actions of the OPM led by the orange idiot's lap dog ezell. It's no longer about opposition, rather **resistance** www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.” WOW. Planes in air must turn around. A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

I am not scared of new tech and innovative solutions. But I am terrified of the ways it would be used. No wonder the gifter, briber, fraudster, defaulter in chief is so interested. To the Dems supporting this stuff, we will primary you! www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

While we are not there yet, all signs point to the need to be ready to deal with a contempuous DOJ and administration, backed by 'brown shirt' marshalls. Better start gathering names of folks willing to standup and be deputised. They will be heros. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/if-t...

Judge William Alsup is ***mad***. When government lawyers miss-represent, lie, tell falsehoods, or refuse an order of the court.... start the bar referral and start disbarrment proceedings. One way to stop them is to have them fired! www.politico.com/news/2025/03...
