This seems like a big story: A federal judge, who was appointed by Trump, has ruled that he cannot ban AP from press briefings because they refuse to kowtow to him on the Gulf of Mexico name 👏👏

DOGE Oversight Subcommittee held a hearing on reducing federal property. All they said was “fire sale” this, “fire sale” that. Meanwhile, they’re lighting all of this s**t on fire — while their incompetent leader wastes millions of taxpayer dollars golfing, all while steering us towards a recession.

Republican Congress needs to get on board for impeachment. The tariffs aren’t an economic policy, they are meant as a tool to undermine our democracy, a means to force every major company and industry in America to pledge loyalty in return 4 tariff relief. Mofia boss mob tactics

New in PN: John Roberts created a monster. It's about to eat him. "After all, how can the rightwing justices expect a future president — particularly a Democratic one — to accept rulings limiting the exercise of their power from a Court that served as the judicial stooge of an aspiring dictator?"

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

NBC News: The Espionage Act contains a provision making it crime to disclose national defense secrets "through gross negligence." The law does not require info be classified, because it was written before the classification system existed. The law refers simply to "national defense information."

Now Trump wants to make it HARDER to vote if your name doesn’t exactly match on every doc?? That hits married folks who change their names, disaster survivors who lost paperwork, and so many others. This ain’t about security—it’s suppression.

It's still early, of course, but I do wonder if one consequence of Trump 2.0 will be to cure Europe's recent flirtation with the far-right. They're seeing what the new right looks like in power, and it's very ugly and incompetent.

This is the most accurate headline I’ve seen so far, with lots of media & all the usual Russian shills on here swallowing Putin’s BS. Did he sign the agreement? No. Have they ceased firing? No. We have empty words & caveats - this is no different than what he’s said for 2 years

The NYT, WaPo, LAT, CNN, etc etc have shifted to the right. Fox & the Post et al have always been hard right. Twitter & Meta are controlled by right wingers. On a daily basis, millions of Americans - probably the majority - see nothing but sanitized, accomodationist, right wing coverage of Trump.
