Meiselas: Steve Witkoff, was allegedly in Moscow while he was on this group chat. Do you believe the Russians now have all of that information and potentially more? Rice: Well, yes—the Russians have whatever Witkoff was doing or saying on his personal cell phone. The Russians undoubtedly have it.

Trump wants to set rules for the way states run their elections and wants DOGE to audit voter databases. DOGE. Not an independent entity - his cronies. Mike Johnson is talking about eliminating district courts. These are not actions you see in a Democratic Republic.

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.

According to MAGA, if you hit a car with a baseball bat because you don’t like the company’s owner you’re a “terrorist”, but if you hit a Capitol police officer with a baseball bat because you don’t like the results of an election, you’re a “patriot.” Do I have that just about right?

Now that I am finished screaming into the void about schooling for kids with disabilities being assigned to RFK: understand what this means. He’s lumping accommodations into HHS, meaning those needs are now considered medicalized. Different from everyday education. This is eugenics.

If you beat a Capitol police officer with their own shield in an effort to overturn a free & fair election, you go free, but if you vandalize an electric car, you get 20 years in an infamously brutal El Salvadoran prison.

I have two friends, neither of whom are politics reporters but who both work in “the media,” who both told me yesterday that they aren’t even allowed to write or post about Trump with work accounts because describing anything he’s doing objectively would appear “anti-Trump.”

The larger picture, as others have pointed out, is that the Biden administration and now the Trump administration have cast anyone who defends Palestine as "pro-Hamas" and anyone who defends the rights of the people saying it as "Hamas sympathizers" which makes it much easier to justify persecution.

At some point the opposition needs to say what is happening here: Donald Trump is a tyrant in the full sense of the term, an American fascist dictator who believes the law flows directly from his command. And he is also a deeply unwell, unfit, and criminal man with nonsensical whims

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.

This is a bigger scandal than people realize. It really makes it look as though this entire meeting was a setup by Trump that was planned in advance. If you watch the video it is clear that they are deliberately and almost derangedly blindsiding Zelenskyy. Now we know who the audience was. Putin.

Trump wants to be an autocrat like Vladimir Putin—and that starts with collecting cowardly oligarchs who pay you to be kind to them. He has that. Now he's moved on to trying to create vassal states like Russia has Belarus. He wants Ukraine to be a vassal state and is enraged that Zelenskyy refuses.
