For over 30 years Bernie has been sounding the alarm about the dangers of the Oligarchy he saw growing since Regan. I regret it’s taken so long to face this danger, but here, as always, he gives the perfect speech for the moment: youtu.be/cQXl5JZG-C8?...

This is changing things! Carvelle tells politicians to “get ready and do nothing,” because this is a beautiful thing building from the ground up… the opposite of how Emporer Oompah Loompah and King Mollusk demand it run substack.com/@krassenstei...

I nominate AOC to lead us through this… hey Big Balls, watch out… this girl has titanium cajones! substack.com/@krassenstei...

Glenn Kirschner launched his Substack over the weekend! As a former federal prosecutor, his experience and knowledge are excellent resources now when the law matters so much! substack.com/home/post/p-...

"Donald Trump is anathema to these values. Unchecked, he will destroy the very things that make America great and exceptional. But maybe that is Trump’s immigration plan. Destroy American institutions and make oligarchs like Elon Musk happy." -Robert McWhirter www.democracydocket.com/opinion/dona...

NEW VIDEO: A new blockbuster lawsuit by Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro may be part of the key to unlock trillions of dollars of funds being unlawfully held by the Trump administration. Paige and I explain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa6t...

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

“He who saves his country, violates no law.”~Anders Breivik, Norwegian Mass Murder quoted by President Trump. If you don’t know the worst mass murderer in Norwegian history, read his manifesto. Why is Trump quoting a right-wing extremist murderer of 69 teenagers? www.commondreams.org/opinion/trum...

that sinking feeling when the Austrians are more wary of fascism than the US administration....

This is what oligarchy looks like.

It’s bad enough that the GOP has abandoned all checks and balances for abject sycophancy. Should their overlord decide to ignore court decisions, he (and they, if they maintain their servility) will break our democracy. THAT is the Constitutional crisis.

That point has been here for a while.

“Sources told CNN the officials did not seem to know this agency oversees America’s nuclear weapons.” 🫣 www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/c...

Just watched the presser from the Oval, Felon47 and Herr Plugs lied the whole damn time. Every word they said was a lie, these two thugs are trying to break our Democratic norms. Stay loud my friends and always Resist! We are the #Opposition Keep your eyes on the prize and don’t get distracted.

Oops. Durbin says Patel has been illegally running the FBI before confirmation - and perjured himself about it under oath www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/dur...

Staffers at the nation’s cybersecurity agency whose job is to ensure the security of U.S. elections have been placed on administrative leave, jeopardizing critical support provided to state and local election offices across the country.

One after another in an avalanche of corruption. This isn’t shock and awe, muzzle velocity or flooding the zone. It is not a media game. It is decades of planning for full-scale unfettered corruption. We are so screwed… I do not know how we counteract so much lawlessness and CRUELTY.

Another violation of court order. “There’s no question that the government is not complying, has not even come close to complying, with the order,” said one expert. “Even funds that weren’t frozen before the order are being frozen now.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/u...

Courts *ordered* the Trump admin to stop its spending freeze Yet ProPublica found place after place where $ is still frozen -hot meals for elderly and disabled -groceries for those in need -maternal & child health services -a clinic that serves the poor www.propublica.org/article/trum...

I've been waiting for someone to make this point as clearly as @pbump.com did last week: The entire Federal law enforcement apparatus is a part of the Executive Branch. All of it. So if they don't want to enforce a judge's rulings, or, for that matter, the law... then who? wapo.st/3CKnHsI

Freedom of the press over … not that’s it’s been all that free www.ap.org/media-center...
