We have just a few short years on this earth. A flicker of magic in a darkening sky. And it's being robbed from us. Taken by hateful, jealous, rage-filled fool and his red hat rag-tag of cultists. We need to be brave, courageous. And soon we must be quick.

"At this point based on the information I have, I'm confident James Uthemeier committed money laundering and wire fraud." - Florida Republican Alex Andrade Does Uthemeier flip and give up Ron & Casey? This is getting good, folks.

Rubio is so happy. It’s going to be really fun to watch Trump destroy and dump him.

Oh my goodness. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

This post from The Bulwark is terrifying and true. We are at the end of everything if this isn't stopped. open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

I think Ben is right.

In fairness, China's pronouncers of state propaganda have a much better game then America's.

“You gotta build about five more places. It’s not big enough... Home-growns are next. The home-growns.” meidasnews.com/news/donald-...

It's the entire email list for all DOGE employees. Have fun!

When the history of American fascism is written, 2 actions will tell the story starkly: 1. The New York Times handling Trump’s call for “termination” of the Constitution with a minor story on Page 13. 2. Every Democratic senator voting to confirm Marco Rubio as Secretary of State.

"Democrats should hold a daily press briefing. Ideally, their spokespeople would be charismatic working-class nonpoliticians capable of speaking accurately ... about the disastrous wrongdoings of the Trump administration," says @josephoneill.bsky.social @nybooks.com www.nybooks.com/online/2025/...

We need help. Or a leader. Or a miracle. SOMETHING.

Never.

The Elon Musk backed pro-Russian candidate in Romania, Calin Georgescu has been arrested. Authorities raided him like the crook he is and found at least $10 million in cash and tickets to Moscow. He may have also bumped his head a little bit too.

Every Democrat campaigning for president in the next election should pledge to revoke the citizenship of every person who paid $5 million for it, and to immediately deport every one of them. With no refunds.

@npr.org @[email protected] What is up with NPR? Do I really have to listen to propaganda from the Heritage people first thing in the morning? I can hear their garbage on the local right wing station. Is that really what you want to emulate?

Correct. This is a President of the United States declaring himself a dictator. And instead of Americans understanding that we’re now under imminent threat of martial law and tyranny, we’ll get a month of think pieces about what the President of the United States meant by his UNAMBIGUOUS statement.

🚨🚨🚨WHY AREN’T THE DEMOCRATS HAVING A PRESS CONFERENCE EVERY SINGLE DAY? Today they’re in the IRS. Today they’re in the National Archives!! I’m 80 and one woman here is 92. WHAT’S YOUR EXCUSE?

* IT'S A COUP * I’m repeating it, because illegal power seizure isn’t just another story to be swept away in a deluge of other stories. It’s the foundational framing to understanding everything... This week, I went to market, bought a coup & realignment of the world order @carolecadwalla.bsky.social

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

I’m begging Democrats to stop talking about tax breaks for billionaires and the price of eggs! They are firing Air Traffic Controllers, stranding Americans in hostile countries, and getting ready to download our data from the IRS. No one is sitting around thinking “I’m worried about the deficit!”

FFS! 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 are firing National Park Service EMTs There will be no one to attend to you if you get attacked by wildlife, fall while climbing/hiking, have a skiing incident, are drowning, break a leg/arm/your neck, etc Alex Wilds is one such federal employee. Read what he's saying

People will die because Elon Musk wants to use his crappy AI company, xAI, to take over the government. He plans to become “Technoking” over America just as he says he is (it’s actually his official job title) the Technoking of Tesla. I repeat: people will die because of this boundlessly evil man.

NEW: Ukraine has NOT been invited to Ukraine peace talks. Zelenskyy to NBC just now: “I will never accept any decisions between United States & Russia about Ukraine. Never.” Clear message. Trump has NO mandate.
