Jesus, I’ve never seen Preet Bhrara look so haggard, with a deer in the headlights expression. He’s always been a calming voice of reason presence.😔😔😡😡🤬!

Because they’re Black, they must be looting? This isn’t an honest mistake. Spread truth, not lies: These folks weren’t looters. This footage is from KTLA, where the homeowner explained that her brothers & friends were helping her move belongings out of her burned house. (Her interview in the 🧵)

Sen. Warren’s letter on Hegseth nomination as Secretary of Defense: “You have voiced opposition to the rules of war, including recently saying that you ‘told [your] platoon they could ignore directives limiting when they can shoot.’… You have also voiced support for torture.” bit.ly/4h3SkHY

Perfectly summarized!

Please remember there are billionaires spending money on outrage media to make you mad at federal civil servants instead of the Supreme Court they bought. Please save your outrage for the actual fascists.

Trump. and MAGAts in general, remind me of John Waters’ film, Pink Flamingos. The plot revolves around a competition for being the most horrible/“filthy” human. Trump’s cabinet nominations are almost laughable in that it’s hard to imagine more catastrophically bad, less inappropriate, choices.

Absolutely well worth the read!
