Governor Mills doesn’t suffer fools lightly, and it appears she has even less tolerance for bullies. (And as a former attorney general, she knows what she’s talking about.)

Reminiscent of authoritarian regimes where supporters publicly pledged their undying loyalty to a dictator in hopes they’d avoid torture and execution.

This clip really should be viewed in full. Trump in full mob boss mode, threatening not only to withhold funds from a governor's state but to ruin her personally. This is the fascist threat so many have screamed about for years. Long past time to take him literally. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

They may use Christian propaganda when they run for office, but these Republicans don’t believe in God. That much is clear.

One month into his second term and we have a unelected billionaire running the White House and destroying our democracy, while the big-faced Orange resumes his role as Russian puppet and his VP espouses extremist ideology. All because America didn’t want a Black woman to lead us. ONE MONTH.

I was just an Education Department guy under Reagan and the most junior WH senior staffer under G.H.W. Bush, so what do I know? But if I were an ex-president, and the current president were executing the most disastrous turn in American foreign policy in 80 years, I think I might say something?

The frustrating thing about the Trump administration is there are things they’re doing now that we likely won’t find out about for years. So as much as there are things we are learning about in real-time, things that are understandably making people angry, what are we doing to find out in 10 years?

The fact that NBC can (accurately) call the Administrative Procedure Act “obscure” just shows how little Americans know about how their government works. It literally is one of the most important laws ever enacted by Congress.

“Mark my words. … They are going to basically tell the U.S. Marshals Service, do not enforce any of these orders, we will not obey them, … and, once that happens—I hope it doesn't … but I know in my heart that it will—our 236-year experiment … in American constitutionalism, is over.”

Senior U.S. District Judge John Coughenour: “It has become ever more apparent that, to our president the rule of law is but an impediment to his policy goals, the rule of law is, according to him, something to navigate around or simply ignore, whether that be for political or personal gain."

The federal government regularly spends money to encourage behavior it couldn’t compel directly. Like paying states to build roads or fund healthcare for those who can’t afford it. It’s called the Spending Clause—and it’s the very first enumerated power that the Constitution gives to Congress. 🤦🏻‍♂️

If he ranted and raved about the inabilities of the pilots or the air traffic controllers and then signed executive orders that blamed his predecessors and political opposition for the tragedy, Republicans would’ve screamed about his senility and called for an immediate impeachment.
