I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal. I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.

MAGA influencers are demanding that Attorney General Pam Bondi arrest and prosecute a MeidasTouch host—for the “crime” of reporting the news. If they think intimidation will silence us, they’ve got another thing coming.

Sick of corporate media downplaying the chaos, acting like any of this is normal? Listen to the MeidasTouch Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or anywhere else you get podcasts.

The rest of the world is prepared to take advantage of our feckless, idiotic, and myopic government led by unqualified right-wing TV hosts and social media influencers as Trump ushers in a new era of American mediocrity.

Heading into mid-May and they still haven’t passed a budget or tax bill, but House Republicans are laser-focused on the things that really matter.

Mari’s quote was perfect. The administration is clearly incompetent and corrupt but the real responsibility lies with the republicans in Congress. They have neglected their duty and not upheld their oath. They had the power to stop all of this nonsense. 😡

The Attorney General is so unserious. If you’re a prosecutor who is serious about obtaining a conviction, you don’t go on Fox and talk about the (alleged) facts of the case like this. Has Bondi read the Justice Manual? Has Bondi heard of pretrial publicity motions? How about bar ethics rules?

Have any of the White House reporters even attempted to ask the Trump administration why it keeps saying that Abrego Garcia is in the domestic custody of a foreign sovereign when all evidence suggests that El Salvador is holding him on behalf of the United States pursuant to a contract?

This is the line of people still outside hoping to get into the @sanders.senate.gov and @aoc.bsky.social event, but they were just told the Adams Center is at capacity. They are setting up an overflow area right now and told people a special guest would be coming out to address the crowd.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US. When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

We need ideas like this. We've got to put all constructive thoughts out there, long odds or not. If we don't, we guarantee they won't materialize. So thanks @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social. Maybe this'll get a few Republicans thinking harder about history than their next election.

Senator Adam Schiff has announced that, due to the chaos surrounding tariff policy, he will investigate whether anyone engaged in insider trading. Trump may be immune from prosecution, but those around him are not. — It’s time to decimate this MAGA circle.
