Very American.

We are in the midst of an administrative coup the like of which we have never seen - or even imagined - in our lifetimes. Every day brings new abuses, new scandals, which can’t just be undone or fixed. We are in a very dark place as a country and as a constitutional republic right now.

NEW: Shortly after Pam Bondi was sworn in Wednesday, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger asked her to drop the Department of Justice’s lawsuit challenging the state’s 2021 voter suppression law, S.B. 202. I warned you, Raffensperger is no hero. He is a GOP vote suppressor.

Ohhh! I forgot to share with y'all due to all that BS with that insurrectionists heckling me, A VIDEO MESSAGE WITH MS.SICKNICK! Never will we forget or let them erase January 6th

Oh snap!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt. This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.

Dear @Doge If there is nothing to hide. Hide nothing

🚨BREAKING: @democracyforward.bsky.social files federal lawsuit to block Trump's illegal plan to slash USAID workforce. Follow @democracydocket.com for breaking news. www.democracydocket.com

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

Do yourself and democracy a favor. Support independent media.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

Department of Transportation has issued a memo ordering programs supported by the agency to prioritize funding projects for communities with “marriage and birth rates higher than the national average.” www.huffpost.com/entry/dot-me...

All the Rs who continue to support this menace to our country all have blood on their hands as well!! 🩸 🩸 🩸

here's today's post: "dumpster fire blames plane crash on ‘diversity’" — disaster on two legs opines on disaster in the sky. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

When Will Democrats Wake Up and Finally Fight Back Against MAGA? Instead of moving to the center, courting Liz Cheney, and welcoming bipartisanship, Democrats need to learn from grassroots movements in France and Brazil and fight back with a winning message. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

DHS Secretary Noem revoked Temporary Protected Status for 600,000 Venezuelans already in the US. TPS had been granted by Secretary Mayorkas in early January 2025. #DHS #immigration

Cough cough... F around and find out! But Donny is still out here still trying to chop down the programs we pay for and need. We are keeping that pressure ON. Don’t worry, I ain’t letting up.

Thank you @gtconway.bsky.social

Power in politics is, as much as anything, the perception of power. And as malevolent as they may be, these incompetent fools in the White House have come out of the gate looking very, very weak.

Absolutely!!! Sadly, that’s how the damn Rs continue to get whatever they want through because they stick together regardless of much Americans will be hurt!!! 😡

Republicans will confirm the thoroughly and dangerously unqualified RFK Jr to own the libs even as he will end up killing their base. It's a death cult.

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

If you encounter an ICE agent and are a US citizen resist and do not comply with any of their requests. Do not give them your name, Do not provide them your ID, Do not speak to them in English. Make them work for it, the more time they spend on you the less time they spend rounding up people.

This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak. Going to be interesting to see how the administration responds

I don't have words to describe how angry this makes me.

@marcelias.bsky.social: "There is a reason why Trump nominated Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, Pete Hegseth. He wants to humiliate these Republicans, because he knows that once they have voted for these folks, he will own them. They will not have a shred of dignity or standing left."

This is a slap in the face to American women. Pete Hegseth has a track record of disrespecting women service members, and multiple credible sexual assault allegations. Our troops deserve better.

Truly shocking... not one tiny, weenie bit!

New episode of #Sistersinlaw. My favorite part was explaining that if Trump is right about birthright citizenship, it means none of those people are subject to the jurisdiction of the US-can’t be arrested, prosecuted or removed. Obviously wrong. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

All my British pals you should definitely support this.

I doubt trump has been able to turn on anything in a long, long time whether a faucet or ….

Donated from AZ. Very disappointed. Seems like Fetterman et al might be following the Sinema playbook and that’s not a good thing. 😫😫

YES! Immediately!
