Sick of liars and monetized misinformation. Support Wiki folks. FWIW - About the election victory - Lies won, Truth lost the election - the rest is irrelevant. Now we have to have hard conversations, unify and organize. We are better than this.

Keep asking the right questions folks.

I don’t know who woke up at CNN and said “you know what? We’re just going to tell the truth today” but WELL DONE

A federal judge just ruled what we’ve known all along. The Trump administration had no right to detain Mahmoud Khalil. This is a victory, but it should’ve never come to this.

🤬

The NG is a different world than the one I served in, but I do have one friend who is in the NG. He owns mechanic biz with a 8 bay garage and earms 6-digits/yr. He serves because there are times when we need the NG. But, imagine being activated for BS reasons, leaving $100K+/yr for guard pay...

“The result is a hybrid criminal state that is perpetrating an invasion of and predatory incursion into the United States, and which poses a substantial danger to the United States,” reads the proclamation from Trump. IMHO-It the orange guy who's the predator.

Well we still have famine to look forward to. How great for us.

This is how you normalize authoritarianism.

Remember this: be unpredictable. “Outrun, outlast… make it impossible for them to justify the cost.” They’ve already wasted $131 million. We are fully committed to peaceful demonstrations, and just as committed to protecting our communities.

BREAKING: Judge says Mahmoud Khalil cannot be detained or deported based on Rubio’s determination. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Our problem is with their lack of knowledge and foresight, not with immigration.

Well this is awkward

Point.

CEO Gary Cox said Senator Dick Scott is his "fraud hero."

His common sense is unbelievable, like nothing anyone's ever seen before.

Good-contact their insurers.

We are the frogs in the pot. If on Jan 20, Trump had ordered U.S. Marines onto city streets, there would have been a call for a general strike. Now it’s just another thing he did.

THIS @democrats.org, @housedemocrats.bsky.social

I would love a drone footage of these troops guarding the federal buildings against no one. @dprzygoda.bsky.social know anyone?

Murray grills Bhattacharya about cuts to medical research that have already happened, including ending HIV vaccine trials that were on the cusp of a breakthrough, and asks him how he justify proposing even deeper cuts. Bhattacharya hems and haws and tries to change the topic.

Double.

Imagine kidnapping people off the street in broad daylight and thinking you're the "good guys". People who are at work, at their kids' school or otherwise minding their business. Imagine shooting people with rubber bullets because they want it to stop and thinking you're the "good guys". 🤔😑

A woman walking home alone was shot point-blank with “non-lethal” rounds fired by officers in Los Angeles. A neighbor filmed the assault and rushed to help only to be fired on and ordered back.

Veteran reminds active duty Marines to uphold the standard and refuse any illegal order to harm US civilians. #NoKings

SANCHEZ: The press release on this China 'deal' looks more like a framework. Will you commit to giving us the specifics? BESSENT: I flew back at 4am to be here SANCHEZ: It's a simple yes or no question BESSENT: We're are in the midst of constructing it. It will be a longer process

I'd like to be done with and hear a Requiem for America's resident evil.

We should be demonstrating against Fox"news." I’m mad at them. Every time they start to show Trump for who he is, they lose viewers. They paid 787 million to cover up their lies from 2020 and to keep their viewers mollified.

Our democracy was like frogs being slow boiled. Now they just turned up the heat.

Thanks, but no tanks.

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."
