"Last year the Supreme Court gutted the rulings that reined in Nixon, and now Trump and Elon Musk are running the government as if they are the only law in the land. They insist they are 'saving' the country by burning down its institutions, and they bogusly claim a mandate of the people to do it."

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

A Worried NATO Holds Large-Scale Combat Drills as the U.S. Shifts Its Europe Stance Under Trump: NATO members are continuing their largest combat exercises of 2025 as worries grow in the 32-nation alliance over its most powerful member, the United States

Global fury builds over Trump’s plan to remove all Palestinians and turn Gaza into the Middle East ‘Riviera.’ Who could have predicted this when the progressives were calling Biden "Genocide Joe?" Who? Everyone. www.politico.eu/article/glob...

America is under attack by the President of the United States

As chilling a meme as I have seen. But I agree.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Mark Greenblatt shared the grim truth of his firing by tRump with CNN's Kasie Hunt, lamenting uncertainty about getting his belongings back. Trump’s late-night purge of inspectors general was a blatant disregard for legal protections. They were fired by "e-mail!" 😲 www.mediaite.com/news/trump-f...

NEW: The United States has reported its first outbreak of H5N9 bird flu in poultry on a duck farm in California. Perhaps this is not the best time to put an anti-vaxxer crackpot in charge of our public health agencies

The sloppiness at the NYT is astounding. This is a front-page story—and it names two things that have not actually happened as though they have.

BREAKING NEWS: All federal employees in DEI roles will be put on paid leave by 5:00pm tomorrow (via CBS News)

Buried in Donald Trump’s rescission of dozens of Biden administration executive orders, the president has reversed a rule that thwarted the power of lobbyists in Washington. Trump has made it clear for years he thinks bribery should be legal. It's just business. newrepublic.com/post/190513/...

The FBI is investigating the fatal shooting of U.S. Border Patrol Agent David “Chris” Maland yesterday in Vermont (NBC)

NEW—Trump WH has blocked all CDC science reports (eg MMWR) & suspended all CDC / FDA / NIH external communications of all HHS agencies until further notice... including all FDA & CDC Health Alert warnings & all social media. Public health be damned. Gift 🎁 link: wapo.st/4aqfN44

Remember when Trump vowed on the campaign trail that drug dealers would face capital punishment? Instead, he decided to pardon them. 🤷‍♂️

15 years after Citizens United, which transformed every corporate treasury in America into a potential political slush fund, we now see the result: government of billionaires, by oligarchs, for plutocrats.

Deleted. 😳

Trump just withdrew the United States from the World Health Organization. The US is now the only country in the world besides Liechtenstein to not be a member of the organization.

They act like nazis because they want to rule like nazis. It’s not that hard

This is illegitimate and illegal. I don’t care how many people support it, and how many judges shrug at it. It is a crime against the post-Civil War constitutional order, a constitutional order that was paid for in the blood of Union soldiers.

Might as well supercharge global warming while they’re at it. We’ll be adding new categories of hurricanes and tornadoes by 2026

An anti-CRT movement targeted an accomplished educator — driving her out of two Georgia school districts. The mission began inside a golf community clubhouse on a Sunday afternoon, where parents were coached on how to land a Fox News appearance. Published June 2022 By @nicolefcarr.bsky.social

Stewart Rhodes just pardoned. This is the nightmare scenario. When I profiled him for Against All Enemies, I never imagined we would end up here. (Full film now on MeidasTouch: youtu.be/D2uwOZhqGS0?...)

Fuck every single person who told you they were voting for Trump because of the cost of eggs. This is what they were voting for. They were just too embarrassed to say it out loud

I’m angry that our Afghan partners are now stopped from coming. Let’s also ask why the fuck they weren’t already here? You won’t like the answer.

Who even subscribes to the @nytimes.com anymore? It’s a rag. I canceled my 30+ year subscription after their atrocious “reporting” on Gaza and their hate against trans people. Redirect your money to indie journalists — people who ACTUALLY do journalism. #fuckthenyt

From earlier today; Donald Trump appears to be keeping his promise to be a dictator on day one. Thom Hartmann explains the strange policy revelations that are already causing chaos. youtu.be/nXUY5mHI-W0?...

Shortly after Trump was sworn in as president, the official portrait of Retired Gen. Mark Milley, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was removed from the Pentagon hallway where portraits of previous chairmen are displayed. Donald Trump is a tiny and petty man

This is going to be a long fucking 4 years

One former officer called Trump's blanket pardon "a miserable miscarriage of justice."

Pam Hemphill, a J6er who has since expressed serious regret for what she did, says she will not accept a pardon from President Trump. “I committed a crime.”

The country is falling apart even faster than expected This is the pastor from the Inauguration... earlier today

Biden preemptively pardoned J6 police officers who were beaten and injured, to protect them against retribution from the insurrection leader because they dared to testify truthfully before Congress. Trump pardoned the thugs who beat them.

Full & unconditional pardons. More than 100 officers were injured. Rioters beat and shocked officer Fanone with a stun gun at the base of his skull. Fanone lost consciousness, which his body camera captured on video. Others yelled "kill him with his own gun." apnews.com/article/capi...

I think we’re past this point, Charlie. Is he a troll? Yes. Does he harbor neo-Nazi sympathies? Equally clear: yes. So when he does this we can skip to saying it was a Nazi salute and he can justify it to himself however he likes but no one cares because he’s a trog who knowingly gave a Nazi salute.
