Like a boss.

All this bullshit immediately crumbles when it's presented to anyone who's not a sympathetic cohost on your podcast

“A desire to force U.S. military leaders to be obedient to him and not the Constitution is one of the constant themes of Trump’s military-related discourse.”

Today is the Day of Remembrance, the 83rd anniversary of the forced removal of 120,000 people of Japanese descent to American concentration camps. American soldiers physically tortured and murdered Japanese Americans in these camps. Their money, homes, businesses, and wealth were stolen.

The artist pretty much nailed it in this drawing of Pig-elect Trump!

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

according to Barbara Jordan's famous speech during the Nixon hearings, "if he attempts to subvert the constitution" is one of the bases for presidential impeachment held out by the Founders.

Since Musk is going to be President, please repost if you'd like to see his income taxes. And while we're looking into his income taxes, let's get him to produce his birth certificate, too.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Today is the Day of Remembrance. Eighty-three years ago today, FDR signed Executive Order 9066. It gave military authorities the power to create “military exclusion zones” from which any class of citizens could be removed.

Keep your eyes on Jack Schlossberg. He's without a doubt, the best Kennedy warrior to keep the heat on RFK, Jr., the biggest embarrassment to the family. He's just not going to let RFK, Jr. get away with anything.

RFK Jr.'s biggest adversary, vaccinated Jack Schlossberg doing yoga on the beach. He's not going to keep his mouth shut about RFK Jr. -- and he shouldn't. RFK Jr. is incompetent and dangerous and will be responsible for the death of millions. Remember COVID, anybody?

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge in Washington, DC has issued an order setting a path for the first round of discovery to be served in a lawsuit involving Trump and Musk’s efforts to restructure the government. Paige and I explain. youtu.be/QHzyeOXUWgM?...

They’re calling it the Trump Crash Crisis trumpcrashedthis.com

I’m thinking about federal income tax. If the federal government isn’t meeting its obligations why should we? Specifically, I’d love to see states get the money first and hold it in trust pending litigation. I want to pay my taxes but not to a government that doesn’t respect the constitution.

don't tell yourself that it's too late for your dreams; maybe it's just too early believe in a better future, baby

If you’re fired from your job “for cause” That can jeopardize your ability to obtain unemployment benefits

The News Item: 'Dear Secretary Kennedy, cure long COVID' 'My daughter has it. It is a nightmare, and there is currently no cure. We need you, Secretary Kennedy.' ...you get post-exertional malaise (PEM), also known as “crashing.” www.newsitem.com/opinion/colu...

Painting of a #NorthernBaldIbis. Once extinct in Europe, this bird is now being reintroduced in the #Alps. As its migration routes are shifting due to climate change, it still relies on humans to find its way. I appreciate how art allows me to connect with the species 💚 #wildlife #waldrapp #birds🐦🐡

FFS! 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 are firing National Park Service EMTs There will be no one to attend to you if you get attacked by wildlife, fall while climbing/hiking, have a skiing incident, are drowning, break a leg/arm/your neck, etc Alex Wilds is one such federal employee. Read what he's saying

i feel like this is evidence for my view that people experience trump through a strong form of ironic detachment. they literally do not perceive him as real.

AND ALSO THERE'S A COUP

Elon Musk posted these two tweets the same day, just hours apart. Don’t sugarcoat it — he’s not just a far-right authoritarian, he’s an outright fascist. Musk isn’t even trying to hide his true intentions at this point. STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR HIM.

School play gets canceled for "inappropriate content". In response students write [REDACTED], their own anti-censorship play skewering the school district, sells out performances, and ultimately takes gold at the Lenaea High School Theatre Festival. www.kqed.org/arts/1397192...

This Christmas when you walk past the Salvation Army kettle we should let the wealthy just take what they want out of it to buy their gifts. It will be a good reminder of what Trump is doing with your taxes.

"Attorneys, he said, 'don’t resign because you disagree with the policies, but because you are being asked to do something you believe is ethically, morally or legally improper'...” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Just some nice little art. Enjoy 🤍 🧵 (1/3) Original words were from @deiloh who worded it loads better than I could. I just wanted to illustrate it and share for others. Check her out on Threads and Insta if you love art and hate what’s going on!

Elon Musk's maternal grandparents relocated from Canada to South Africa in the early 1900s, where they were in the German Nazi Party. They supported Hitler and then went to South Africa, a stronghold of support for Nazism outside of Germany. Musk was an anti-semite and an apartheid lover.

I started streaming Minecraft on Twitch in 2020 to give people a place to recharge, huddle up & find joy. I love this from @parkroseperma.bsky.social - yes, do those things what else are we fighting for? youtu.be/fq0o_QetQXU?... (And if @aoc.bsky.social wants to knit along with me, I am DOWN.)

Just a Wicked Girl saving herself. Something tells me what saves me, may save my country as well. And no, I do not think the law - depending on who claims they have the high ground - has much to do with it. Law requires consensus and I haven't seen any of that with this guy, ever.

Who else wants Pete Buttigieg @petebuttigieg.bsky.social to be the press secretary for Democrats? ✋ #Voices4Victory

NAACP lists companies that dump DEI in its tactical spending guide for Black Americans

They won’t ever learn will they

This is all a good reminder that, “no help, no votes until the criminal conduct stops” is neither a big ask nor a politically perilous one.
