Welp, after 3 months of trying nothing meaningful to end the war they promised would be over within 24 hours, the Trump administration is exhausted and giving up. Absolute clown show.

Very very important read. A startup backed by the paypal mafia and the Kushner is set to get a contract to privatize the entire internal govt credit card system. No compete sweetheart deal. Justified by bogus claims abt fraud. Pure corruption. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

RFK Jr. says there are no autistic poets, so we interviewed one. Hear from Elizabeth McClellan, @popelizbet.bsky.social, an award-winning poet, attorney, and legal educator based in Memphis, Tennessee.

Meiselas: The public pressure was mounting. A 9-0 decision by the Supreme Court. Your voice matters. Senator Van Hollen showing up matters. The Trump regime can mock and post all the memes they want, but at the end of the day, the right result is finally starting to happen.

Well that's not good.

NEW: “An independent federal agency is going forward with President Donald Trump’s sweeping elections executive order despite a barrage of lawsuits challenging it as an assault on states’ constitutional authority to run their own elections.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

@cnn.com putting breaking news stories like this behind a paywall is ethically bankrupt.

This entire situation is nuts. Can't think of a similar precedence.

THREE EQUAL BRANCHES OF GOVERNMENT. It’s in our Constitution and at the very heart of our democracy. Article 3 establishes the judicial branch. It’s the job of judges to determine if the actions of the Administration violate our laws. Full. Stop. That’s how our democracy works.

What we want, JD, is just basic adherence to foundational constitutional law. Nothing crazy.

He's indefensible.

She destroyed him.

Cops shot and killed a non-verbal, autistic teenager, who was on the other side of a fence… and that shit disappeared from the news and consciousness in a few hours.

DHS is threatening to revoke Harvard’s ability to host international students and the IRS is looking at revoking their tax exemption. The “stop the weaponization of government” crowd sure is quiet as fuck on this one.

Oh this guy is really gonna love how little basic infrastructure upkeep is gonna get done for the -next- 3.5 years. @nebraskadems.bsky.social @nebraskaexaminer.com

How is this not the same thing as bypassing the Senate advise and consent requirement?

Please watch and share. It can be easy to get a little lost in the details, but the ENTIRE THING they're doing is absolutely built on a foundation of lies and flagrantly illegal.

For those breaking the constitution on behalf of Donald Trump with the assumption that he has your back: he may. But he’s 78, never exercised in his life, and will be president max another 3.5 years. There will be not statute of limitations for violating it

The fuck you will.

😑

Imagine if there were a place you could present evidence and someone could decide if you were right

Oh. "This is about whether we have functional constitutional government in this country. If the IRS can go after you because of what you think or what you believe or what you do, we'd no longer live in a free country.“

Van Hollen says he was NOT able to see Kilmar Abrego Garcia during his visit to El Salvador He also was not permitted to speak with Abrego Garcia by phone

All 27 scientists at this CDC lab were told their duties were "unnecessary," and now viral outbreak investigations have been halted.

Last year, the IRS finally launched an easy and secure new Direct File system to let you file your taxes for free. The DOGE just decided to shut it down and make you shell out hundreds of bucks to Turbotax instead.
