WOW. SCOTUS has BLOCKED the administration from deporting class members under the Alien Enemies Act until further order of SCOTUS. This is the case Boasberg couldn’t issue a TRO in earlier because he didn’t have jurisdiction. I’m honestly shocked.

There are likely effective vaccines for major health concerns like Bird Flu, Lyme Disease, and even multiple forms of cancer - just to name a few - but we just lost funding for further study, our entire vaccine advisory group, most drug approval personnel at FDA, and HHS is overseen by antivaxxers…

MSNBC just showed a montage of world leaders calling the USA idiotic, illogical, hostile, unhinged.... literally never seen anything like this. From the shining city on a hill to an object of global derision and contempt.

Apropos of nothing: Kamala Harris predicted this exact moment happening: “Understand that part of Trump’s plan is to put in place a national sales tax of at least 20% on everyday goods and necessities.” She warned us over & over again & she was so right.

"When he said, 'I have the highest poll numbers of any Republican for the last 100 years,' that wasn’t just wrong, it was the opposite of reality: At this point in their terms, every other GOP president since the dawn of modern polling has had more support than him." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

BREAKING @Adrian_Fontes won't run for Raul Grijalva's #AZ07 seat.

If Trump issued an Executive Order requiring all newspapers to send articles to the WH for review before publication, would newspapers report it is a “requirement” or “mandate”? Or would the fact it’s preposterously illegal and unconstitutional make right into the lede and headline?

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.

@mswmediapods.bsky.social had to unfollow. There is no reason to repost over 50 posts for yesterday. We all saw them already. Talk about a timeliness clog

Doocy: The judge wants to know why the proclamation was signed in the dark Trump: I don’t know when it was signed. I didn’t sign it. Other people handled it.

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

Two Republican senators told me tonight this vote shows they can execute the same strategy again — cut Democrats out of the negotiations on a gov’t funding bill, pass it thru the House, and expect Senate Dems to back down and not filibuster it. “We liked it over here,” one said.

There are no words in the English language sufficient to describe how heartburstingly angry I am at the 8 traitors who just sold us all down the river. It is our job as Americans to make sure they can NEVER appear in public life EVER again. Die wretched and alone, unloved by your country.

Dear Democrats: If the Republicans want a vote from you, make them beg you for it. Beg. Until then, do nothing. Have a price and make it very high. Explain your offer well before the vote to the public. Not this. You gave it for nada.

No Dem Senator has to follow Schumer here. This is a weak stategic move driven by fear and learned helplessness. Don't follow him. He's leading the party into irrelevance and helping Trump and Musk in the process. Call your Dem Senators and ask them not to join Schumer's surrender tomorrow.

She’s right @schumer.senate.gov. Your path of least resistance in the face of fascism is pathetic.

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security. Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

when the edible hits

Twitter is down. Tesla stock is plummeting. SpaceX’s rocket imploded. All owned by the same guy who’s now in charge of our federal government.

BREAKING: Trump and Republican leadership in Congress admit they are incapable of passing their own budget for NINE FREAKING MONTHS because they take a fuck-ton number of days off so they can perform angertainment spectacles, Trump can play golf, and because they hate each other.

I think the entire construct of alpha males and beta males is deeply stupid, totally contradictory to the science and a way for stunted men to make sense of the world. That said it's very funny that every man in Trump world is basically a beta male to Trump.

I keep hearing Republicans claim their budget doesn't cut Medicaid. We all know that's a lie — so I asked the nonpartisan CBO to look into it. Their analysis confirms it: the Republican budget delivers the largest Medicaid cuts in history to pay for giveaways to billionaires.

Dude says we have to take care of our law enforcement FUCK YOU!!! YOU ASSHOLE YOU PARDONED OUR ATTACKERS

Hey @daveminca.bsky.social , @adamschiff.com , @alexpadilla4ca.bsky.social , you guys might want to read this thread and take some notes. You don’t even have to break any laws!

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Trump just helped bring Andrew Tate — who is literally charged with rape and human trafficking — into our country.

“Don’t believe the career experts who showed their work. Believe the partisan idiots with an agenda who won’t show their ‘proof’”

NOAA returns/produces so much more money to the American economy than it costs, no stories about any of this should allow them the absolutely bullshit "savings" framing

Zelensky, the ELECTED leader of a free country, should not be expected to kiss the ass of the toddler. His people expect Him to be strong. Trump would have fled where Zelensky stayed and fought. Trump is the worst negotiator

If you were in Congress, what would you do for the State of the Union? What do you think Dems should do?

Impeach.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

"Steve Witkoff, Donald Trump’s envoy to the Middle East, said he and Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law, are discussing bringing together real-estate executives to come up with a plan to rebuild Gaza. "

U.S. Attorneys are not the President’s lawyers. They are the United States’ lawyers. You didn’t pledge an oath to a President, you pledged it to the constitution. This statement alone is reason enough to resign.

I really miss Football. It gave me several days without politics

For any Republicans out there-- don't you see what's happening? Your elected officials, drunk with power, are quietly and quickly getting filthy rich. And in exchange, they're cutting your Medicaid, cutting your education funding, cutting SNAP benefits, cutting medical research.
