"Golly wiz, after we saw him at CPAC with that chainsaw we got really concerned!"

You don't fire Judge Advocates General unless you plan on issuing unlawful orders. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-f...

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

No matter how preposterous, the Times headlines nearly every Trump story as if it were written by the White House comms team.

Apparently, the mediocre-est administration of all time is gonna make America great

Casually bringing this back… #OCanada 🍁

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

I just saw Kaesee Bourne on news. She’s a fish and game biologist who was just fired by DOGE. I haven’t read her book yet but I just ordered 2 copies from Little Professor in Birmingham. She would probably love some book sales so order if you can or repost. #BlackHistoryMonth #booksky

I'd like the congratulate the Canadian hockey team on their victory last night over the team fielded by Russia's vassal.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

And you know who you have to blame for this, Nikki?

Remember when Russia was caught hacking into Rubio’s campaign when he ran against Trump? I wonder if they found something incriminating on our Secretary of State? www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncn...

Don’t forget 25 Russians were indicted for interfering with the 2016 election as a result of the Mueller Investigation. They engaged in a campaign to get Trump elected by impersonating Americans online to spread misinformation and hacking into the DNC computers.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

In this last month I have made the mental transition from "air travel is very safe" to "at least it would be a relatively quick way to go"

X marks the spot.

"Daddy says he owns you. Can you get me an ice cream?"

The most important pro-democracy lawsuit you may not be following.👇 Trial begins Monday in a years-long redistricting battle that will determine Black representation in Alabama’s congressional delegation through 2030. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Jake Tapper: Sir, respectfully, with no offense intended and apologies in advance, I am asking a question about- Stephen Miller: Jake, Jake. Jacob. You must save your energy for the mines

Any Dem congressperson could round up a few friendly and alarmed FBI agents right now and go arrest Musk’s gang of children. “Just fucking do it and see what happens” is a stronger move for the side that is upholding the law.
