Some of the Republicans cheered.

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️. Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

In Pope Francis’s last public address, he preached care of the marginalized, the vulnerable, and migrants, saying: “I would like all of us to hope anew and to revive our trust in others, including those who are different than ourselves.” May we heed his wish.

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Van Hollen on Fox News Sunday: "I'm not vouching for the man. I'm vouching for the man's rights. His constitutional rights to due process."

Sorry, we promised not to post much today but we had to make a special callout. We forgot to give a proper shoutout to a few places yesterday. Denver and Dallas Fort Worth, you broke records. You were incredible.

Right Now, most of the American can relate to this message from the 90's.

Boston! I love you! The rest of the message: "One if by land, two if by DC"

This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Seeing Cory living in Fox News’ head rent free brought me great joy. Hope it does for you too. Onward!

Indeed.

It's 5:00 a.m. E.S.T. -- keep going Senator Cory Booker -- we're so proud of you! I'm staying up for as long as you speak! Follow me @electroboyusa.bsky.social

WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS! Cory Booker is throwing down—filibustering & standing up to Trump’s authoritarian overreach. This is what we need—Dems who disrupt, resist, and fight back. Booker’s stand is a rallying cry for all of us to demand better. Watch here 👉🏾 www.youtube.com/live/v2utlMx...

"I was stunned." @drejoanneliu.bsky.social, the former international president of Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders describes having a talk canceled at New York University last month because some of her presentation discussed Trump cuts to foreign aid and Israel's war on Gaza.

Exactly 🎯 ( #NoKing-NoOligarchs) #NoNoNo!! #Resist ✊🏾 💙

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Senator Cory Booker is still speaking this morning. It’s been 12 hours and he’s still going. We THANK YOU Senator!!

Hey folks! If you're in Florida and Wisconsin today, GET OUT AND VOTE!

Honored to join veterans in calling for accountability and investigations into Secretary Hegseth’s FUBAR situation where he texted secret war plans on Signal to a journalist. We all wore the uniform. If we had texted secret war plans to a journalist, we likely would have been court-martialed.

According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact it’s specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. He’s lying. @markwarner.bsky.social

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.

Wow, just WOW!! Looks like orange Slim Shady is at it again…👇 What. The. Actual. Fuck. ✨
