I'm calling for an army of volunteers to build a massive wiki that enumerates the things that Trump has broken and that will need fixing: presswatchers.org/2025/05/we-n... Are you with me?

Live discussion with Alona Prylutska of Ukrainian Bat Rehabilitation Center @batsukraine.bksy.social + Mike Bullock @ears-in-space.bsky.social Sat 3 May 1 pm Eastern North America 6pm London, 8pm Ukraine Listen soundtent.org/reveil/#/ or wavefarm.org/radio/wgxc/s... 🦇 #bats #ukrainebats #reveil2025

Best sign from yesterday.

🚨 I have just introduced articles of impeachment against President Trump. Donald Trump is not above the law, and when he ignores the constitution, he should be held accountable.

🇨🇦 Mark Carney & the liberal party win in Canada - a clear rebuke of Trump, who turned a conservative landslide upside down with his attacks. #ElbowsUp

Children as young as *four* are being put in the position of representing themselves without lawyers/parents present in front of immigration judges in cases that will determine whether they are deported. gothamist.com/news/4-year-...

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

MORE NEWS: Judge Boasberg has called an emergency hearing in 35 minutes on lawyers for Alien Enemies Act targets’ urgent claim that Trump administration is resuming summary deportation.

BUSY NIGHT FOR THE COURTS: Late last night, a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction barring DOGE’s access to sensitive Social Securitt data, saying the government flouted the law to provide unfettered access to DOGE without a reasonable basis. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

BREAKING NEWS

NEW: Judge Boasberg finds probable cause to hold the Trump administration in contempt for their decision not to turn the planes around on March 15. He orders them either to fix their mistake or identify who made those decisions (presumably for further sanctions).

“All of it is chaos. Trump's brain is like a fucking pachinko machine, being shaken by a meth head. During an earthquake, there's nothing logical going on there.”

What Judge Xinis is banking on is that the government does not want to spend two weeks in discovery. Two big things can happen: (1) They just make the call and get him back (2) They spend two weeks creating a public record of their own fuck ups and then get sanctioned

Part of reality now... constantly hitting refresh on @annabower.bsky.social feed from Judge Xinis' courtroom regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, hoping the rule of law will somehow survive in the United States.

In just two months, DOGE has —lost— the government an estimated half a trillion dollars. I propose that Musk pay it back personally.

Our latest piece on Hegseth, by @tlecaque.bsky.social & I: "Europe, according to Hegseth, is “demographically and culturally overrun” by Muslims—the fault of “quivering European beta-male politicians,” who in his view failed to deliver the authoritarian anti-immigration-crackdown Trump is promising"
