Beware Trump’s Talk of Coming “Emergencies” newrepublic.com/article/1920... via @newrepublic.com

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

This list is so long and taking up so much real estate in his speech it’s almost like they want to distract from their massive cuts to Medicaid

Trump Turns Mar-a-Lago Dinners Into Pricey Pay to Play Scheme newrepublic.com/post/192296/... via @newrepublic.com

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

There are some Trump administration lawyers who need to be disbarred.

Russia and China, have ramped up recruitment efforts targeting US federal employees—particularly those recently fired or at risk of termination. These efforts are unfolding aggressively on LinkedIn, where adversaries are reaching out under the guise of job opportunities, networking, and consulting.

There’s no one around to stop Trump from declaring martial law and suspending the Constitution or even an election.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

You might not see it in the mainstream media, but over 10,000 people protested today at Tesla showrooms across the country, another 10,000+ rallied in support of national parks, and more than 1,000 gathered in Vermont to protest Vance’s visit.

No META today. Essential expenditures only. In cash. Yes? For me it's the facebook that will be the most significant.

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

Comment in r/Seattle detailing why it took a few more days for the Washington AG to file the suit wrt the trans EO. A huge thank you to all the people in the AGs office that made this happen.

If Trump returns to the White House, says Stewart, the author of Money, Lies, and God, “Vought could be one of the key figures leading us into a new and violently authoritarian future.”

President Trump's funding freeze is a good reminder to get acquainted with Russ Vought, the bureaucrat furiously working to realize the Trump administration's authoritarian dreams Read @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social's profile:

As diplomatic conflict and trade war talk ramps up, the Latin America's often fractious leaders could end up sharing an antagonist in common: Trump.

Given the toxic swirl of narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that has enveloped the country, I’ve never been more pessimistic about its future. And it’s not even about FFOTUS. He could choke on a cheeseburger tomorrow—a fate no cheeseburger would deserve—and I’d feel the same way.

Hegseth showed his literal ignorance. He says "I know what I dont know" but then offers erroneous responses instead of simply stating "No ma'am I dont know". And what is this BS about Marxist plots? He either doesn't know what Marxism is, or he is committed to disinformation (well maybe both).
