I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

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.

We are on Russias side. The orange fatty is straight traitor

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

NOAA just fired us, again 🤡 Retroactive to February 🤡

Just finished The Final Architecture series by @aptshadow.bsky.social — a breathtaking story that spans the universe and beyond. In true form, it’s told in an intimate and visceral way. The exploration of consciousness — one that transcends humanity — struck me to my core. Cheers

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

i think i speak for most americans when i say i hate anyone who is so stupid that he makes me care about treasury bonds

👀

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Trump to Americans

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

Look, for over a year, one brave Cassandra was warning you that massive tariffs were coming and that they’d wreak havoc on the economy. But no one listened to Donald Trump.

Just heard DOGE/Musk are cutting half of the staff at the Social Security offices in Alexandria. 40% of the staff in Rochester. It’ll make it a lot harder for seniors to get help when they run into issues, which might be exactly what they want.

Can confirm.

Q for the "Originalists"/Amateur historians: why do you give any weight at all to ideas about executive power that ultimately descendfrom the rights and privileges of a monarch that ruled by divine right? The Revolution should make us discount & question all those old doctrines, no?

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

Nice to see how FoxNews is covering the economic disaster. What a joke.

Dark Pence is back.

I refuse to believe that the stupidest motherfuckers in the world have come up with an unassailable way to seize power.

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.

Records are meant to be broken. Congrats @booker.senate.gov for stepping up and standing up for the American people. Blazing your own path for the W 👏👏👏👏👏

Now that's fuckin priceless! 😂

From my book FRANKENPOLITICS

We are going to be destroyed by the stupidest people on Earth.

Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

Pete Hegseth never should have been tapped for this job. It's too important. He should be fired immediately.

🤔🤔🤔

Elbows up, Canada.

As our planet accelerates towards a civilisation-ending climate crisis reality is being banished from existence, labelled as terrorism and put on mute to protect oligarchs’ stocks. Mad Max suddenly looks like a boring flick

From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA
