Trump's bombastic bloviations are bullshit. Like almost everything else he says, they're a reaction to his level of recent narcissistic injury. He can't help it now, as he is owned by his disorders. It's hard to disassociate words from deeds, but Trump hasn't uttered a truthful syllable in months.

I'm going to say more tomorrow. But it SEEMS 3 things happened today. 1) Great reporting, esp from @gwynnefitz.bsky.social and @hellgatenyc.com, created immediate focus 2) People turned out peacefully 3) DOJ realized it couldn't file a dogshit case w/o bigger blowback than they'll already get

This is pretty nuts. I don’t care whether ur in the guard or reserves. DNI is a full time job. You can’t not be available during a major nat sec crisis. More obvious explanation is that she was close to the Assad regime and Russia and they may simply not trust her to be there.

PARANOIA Trump's paranoia takes center stage now. Part of his pathology. He trusts nobody. His allies talk about him behind his back. The Fed won't cooperate. Coney-Barrett can't be trusted. He never trusted Vance. Musk can never be trusted again. How can their crowds be so big and his so small?

Excellent analysis. These workforce boards and others are ways for business people and climbers often to polish their resumes as "insiders" and get access to money. The governor has no freaking idea who they are. They are non-partisan and thousands apply every time there is an opening.

As Republican senators consider President Donald Trump’s big bill that could slash federal spending and extend tax cuts, a new survey shows most U.S. adults don’t think the government is overspending on the programs the GOP has focused on cutting, like Medicaid and food stamps.

Trump is at the G7 Summit. The media is reporting it like he has high stakes meetings about strategies, an agenda, and making deals. Please. Why can't we just save time, put aside the normalizations, set more accurate expectations, and admit it will devolve into a series of new embarrassments?

The same people whose theory of fighting fascism (from Trump, it has to be said, bc it's not clear they understand that Trump is the fascist here) is whining ceaselessly about Chuck Schumer are the same people whose theory of winning an election was to whine ceaselessly about Merrick Garland.

submitted 2 days ago • 40 comments

When you whined ceaselessly about Merrick Garland you: 1) Spread provably false disinformation about what he did 2) Thereby FOCUSING discursive space primarily on Garland AND applauding the use of disinformation 3) RATHER THAN simply repeating that Trump is a criminal

ICE is now removing undocumented foster children from their foster homes for deportation! For those of you who are supporting this, there will be a reckoning for this … and for those of you who are sitting silently by while these atrocities are unfolding before our eyes, there will be a reckoning!

Today’s #NoKings rally in Dublin, CA “Why Dublin?”, you ask. Well, ICE is trying to convert an abandoned prison into an ICE detention facility. This was a prison that was known to be abusive to the people incarcerated there. For more info on stopping this from happening: www.bayresistance.org

Just how bad Trump's budget is for working class and poor people, in one chart. It also shows how Trump's tax cuts overwhelmingly help the rich -- aka those who don't need it. Live version of the chart here: www.datawrapper.de/_/lZhZl/?v=4 Show it to your friends. #EconSky
