Shame on these law firms for going bowing to extortion. Maybe because they already do pro bono work and comply with hiring laws, they think it’s no big deal. But they are advancing a false narrative and emboldening lawlessness.

Oops!

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

MSNBC just called it for Susan Crawford!! Yes!! Elon fails!!

The issue of immigration has always been the center of gravity for Trump and MAGA. The conventional advice to Democrats has been to duck the issue. I think that's been wrong--but in any case there's now no choice. Democrats need to directly take on Trump's cruel and lawless attacks on immigrants.

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

Emanuel: Ever since the US showed weakness toward Putin in Ukraine… Within a week or two, China launched an unprecedented naval exercise against our ally Australia... They made unprecedented moves against Japan, against Vietnam, in the Philippine area, and on Taiwan’s straits. They see weakness

It is absolutely right that we do not need Greenland (or Canada) for natsec reasons because they are already close NATO allies. So the only rationale to turn the US into an aggressor in our own hemisphere is if you don’t plan on NATO being a US alliance in the future.

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

Here’s an unctuous toady who has zero scruples around caring about what could have happened to troops due to the morons running national security and confuses luck with what her actual job is, which is making sure people don’t have to rely on luck to stay alive www.nytimes.com/2025/03/27/u...

How a party loses its soul: Respectable Republican Condi Rice visits Kristi Noem. Noem stages a sick photo-op in El Salvador with deportees as props. Some of them were law-abiding U.S. immigrants, now imprisoned in that hellhole. No respectable Republican criticizes Noem.

Based on the replies l, it looks like there a lot of fed workers on @bsky.app I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I can't imagine the shit you are going through right now Thanks for your service to our country

The Tufts graduate student detained by federal authorities in Somerville has been sent to a Louisiana detention facility, despite a federal judge’s order telling US Immigration and Customs Enforcement not to remove her from Massachusetts without notice.
