🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

AOC: And he is running around because he thinks he got a bank account with a lot of zeros in it that it makes him some kind of super citizen. I don't think so.

In addition to Congress being the place that makes the laws, pretty key thing, the constitution explicitly says Congress gets to create the postal system. It’s not left implied that that comes under law making generally. The President has no power to unilaterally abolish it and move it to commerce.

Trumpism at work.

TCW strings together baseless insults, then talks about the serious arguments being made by the fascists over at X. How is this person employable?

Elon Musk is cratering in polls: WaPo: Only 34% approve of Musk's role, 63% worry about his data access CNN: 54% say it's bad Musk was given a big role Majorities disapprove of Trump in CNN, WaPo, Gallup. On the pod, @juliaazari.bsky.social is great on all this: newrepublic.com/article/1917...

It's not "controversial," guys, it's a Nazi salute. You can call it out as such. Stop dancing around the truth.

I wrote a book called "It Was All A Lie" that made the case that Republicans never really believed in their freedom and democracy rhetoric. It was all just marketing slogans. Watch how many call out Russian agent Donald Trump openly siding with Putin. It was all a lie.

These are legal immigrants the Trump administration is fucking over for no reason other than cruelty and racism www.npr.org/2025/01/28/n...

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

When they fire the Chair of the Joint Chiefs and the Chief of the Navy next week, they’ll use words like DEI. The left will chalk it up to racism and sexism. But that’s only part of it. Mostly they just want people who they believe will carry out illegal or unethical orders.

Apple didn’t fall far from the tree.

Ah, Octavian speaks. Self-important moron who equates wealth with merit just like his shit stain of a father.

The work my colleagues are doing on the plight of the migrants deported to Panama is stunning

One month after starting work as White House Assistant, Stan Woodward remembered that he was still representing Walt Nauta. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

"What we are fighting for is not “utopian”, or unachievable. Much of it already exists in other countries, and poll after poll shows that it is exactly what the American people want." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

when i say that there are people who care less about workers and their rights than they do the primacy of a masculinist blue collar identity politics, i am taking about people like sean o’brien

Elon Musk would have cut George and Ringo to increase Beatle efficiency.

Anna you obviously have DOGE Derangement Syndrome (DDS) smh

Lmao literally this

🇺🇦👀 "Yesterday there were already signals that Russia is a victim. This is something new…" - Zelensky 🇺🇸 "The US gave us about $67 billion in weapons and $31 billion in programs for the budget. It definitely didn't cost $500 billion, this is not a serious conversation."

🚨 Standing beside and introducing Trump, an OMB official just announced Trump signed an executive order asserting that “only the President and the Attorney General can speak for the United States when stating an opinion as to what the law is.”

This weasel actually insists it’s a “longstanding norm” that only the president or his attorney general can say “what the law is” which is, of course, absolute garbage.

Reporters should continue to ask about the written certification or Office of Government Ethics regulation required to permit financial conflicts of interest under 18 USC 208, a federal criminal statute. www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/... www.theverge.com/news/614078/...

Speaking of dumb, Tom Homan openly confessed to a corrupt quid pro quo on live television and thinks it's a federal crime to inform immigrants of their legal rights under the Constitution.

I really don’t want to redo the Trumpworld-as-Bond-Villains but Golddingus here is going to force my hand abcnews.go.com/Politics/liv...

A good moment to remember the Russia thing was always real. Trump's goal is to help Russia and Putin, always has been. He's trying to throw our democratic allies under the bus and America as well. Again, the Russia thing was always real.
