Trump is talking about shuttering publications and networks he disagrees with. He's talking about deporting and imprisoning Americans who dissent. This is unprecedented and undemocratic. Wake up America.

For the longest time I thought the president was not particularly bright. While I may have not completely changed that opinion, I am fully convinced that his actions are wholly driven by greed, self-protection and a complete lack of loyalty to the country that elected him.

If Trump comes after you, and you have some resources—think law firms and universities, not foreign students disappeared for speech—then you have a moral and patriotic obligation to fight back. If nothing else, it ties up the regime’s resources. They don’t have that much. They need capitulators.

If Kristi Noem can go down to El Salvador and take concentration camp selfies, then DOJ can figure out where Abrego Garcia is. Just start jailing people for contempt of court until they find out.

Is anyone asking R congress people if they are comfortable with Russia as an ally? Or with the economy being in free fall? Or with people being picked up off the street for no reason other than the color of their skin or their accent? I’d like to know these answers or why they won’t be answered.

So if through magical thinking we conjure up all of these American factories, who is going to work at them once all the immigrants are deported?

I better hear every one of you motherfuckers complaining everywhere you go to everyone you see about how expensive everything is. Say shit like, "fuckin tariffs," whenever you buy something so people hear you. Public sentiment means a lot. Y'all love complaining. Go forth and conquer.

The same people in DC who got us into this mess are not going to be the ones to get us out of it. Today I'm announcing my campaign for U.S. Senate. Because we don't have a minute to wait.

BREAKING: A federal court ruled that Alabama cannot prosecute people for helping others travel across state lines to access abortion care. This is a win for our freedom of speech and our right to travel freely.

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful. Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

The president doesn’t care about the people, only about benefiting those who keep him in power. Just wondering… who would benefit financially if the US took over Greenland?

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

Note to editors and producers: If an executive order demands action that is illegal or outside of the president’s authority, then you should not describe it as ordering something. You should say it seeks to achieve some outcome and then note it is illegal or beyond the power of the president.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

“I am failing at the core functions of my position” would not be the defense at any business or other private organization, nor in any previous U.S. government. Congress doesn’t have to accept it. Doing so is a choice.

Tout this widely. The biggest danger right now is, as @dandrezner.bsky.social said yesterday, pluralistic ignorance, when “people who hold a majority opinion are unaware that it is a majority opinion”. We need to broadcast all the signs that the town halls etc are not a fluke.

This is why when MAGA says it wants to make all of the USA in its own image we have to protect ourselves and our children by saying, "No. No, fucking, no! You crazy, incompetent, crazy loons."
