"I can't get involved. I've got work to do. It's not that I like the Empire, I hate it, but there's nothing I can do right now." Sound familiar? Get involved!

Pritzker: “It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic. All I’m saying is when the 5-alarm fire starts...every good person better be ready to man a post w/a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control"

The Constitution does name Treason as a criminal act and allows explicitly for one to be executed for committing it. Just because one is the elected leader of this country does NOT mean one can't commit treason. So. Test it. Staying within the Rule of Law. #nokings #Impeach #Convict #Remove #Charge

Trump's new statements regarding Ukraine are framed in the exact language of a rapist who blames the woman for being at the place or wearing the dress. It was never about Ukraine's choices before 2014, it was always about Putin's.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

I visited Ukraine, summer of 2010. It felt like a friendly, familiar place where many didn't speak my language. I visited Russia, summers of 2015, 2016, 2017. It felt like a place I needed to be careful what I said. Despite them acting like they didn't speak my language.

I would add that 18 USC 208 is a CRIMINAL statute. Trouble is, if the Office of Govt Ethics referred such a case to the Justice Department (which it won't, because the OGE director was just fired), we're left with Pam Bondi. So yeah, our nation is in one hell of a fix. via @alexckaufman.bsky.social

7 years ago today, 17 people lost their lives during the Parkland Massacre. Among them was Jaime Guttenberg. Her dad, @fredguttenberg.bsky.social, is using his pain to effect change. Check out Orange Ribbons for Jaime. orangeribbonsforjaime.org/scholarship/ #DyingForGunSafety

Doge is auditing NASA today. This is absurd. The owner of Space X should not be auditing NASA. It’s a massive conflict of interest.

NEWS: Hagan Scotten, one of the SDNY attorneys prosecuting Eric Adams' case, has resigned ... and is blasting the Trump Justice Department on the way out.

Donald Trump, before our very eyes, is turning America’s Justice Department into his own personal law firm. And because he’s doing that, principled lawyers, prosecutors, & public servants with integrity are resigning. This is a huge scandal and should be covered as such.👇

In light of the news that DOJ leadership is forcing career prosecutors to either dismiss the criminal case against Eric Adams or be fired, it seems like a good time to remind everyone that the judge can refuse to dismiss. That rule exists precisely in order to prevent corrupt dismissals.

Do people not understand what’s happening with the Eric Adams thing? The memo instructing the prosecution to be dropped explicitly said it was because he was carrying out the president’s agenda. It was “you’re working for me, so we’re letting you go.” It was an explicitly corrupt bargain

Read Danielle Sassoon’s letter explaining how Eric Adams’s counsel offered a quid pro quo, Emil Bove told the other DOJ lawyers in the room not to take notes, and then made the deal. static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

With both RFK Jr and Gabbard confirmed, two people who rose to prominence spreading conspiracy theories about public health and national intelligence will now run the U.S. government agencies in charge of those areas. For someone studying these conspiracy theories for a decade... this is nauseating.

It's weirdly difficult to remember that Trump's popular vote margin was /less/ than Hillary's in 2016. Biden got more votes in 2020 than Trump got in 2024 and Trump surrogates all under-performed in congressional races. This is not a mandate, I don't get why it is being portrayed that way.

The year is 2026 A.D. Jimmy Fallon just ate the last egg cooked by Gordon Ramsey in a Amazon sponsored TV special. It’s day 37 of martial law.
