i blame scotus for many of our problems but not just for the immunity decision and roe.

Whatever happened to the "5 things " DoGe emails ? Talked to someone really smart who just left gov, who said all the emails bounced back as inbox full. Already forgotten Typical Ready Fire Aim

Not all the Palantír have been accounted for!

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

John Roberts is not "rebuking" Donald Trump. He's bending the knee. If you listen to what Roberts is *not* saying, you'll see he's telling Trump exactly what he wants to hear. We've seen this before from another Chief Justice, in Marbury v. Madison. My latest in @thenation.com

the only thing donald trump has ever done that i support is boycotting the white house correspondent's dinner. he does it for the wrong reasons, but nevertheless the dinner is a an absolute horror show of everything wrong with media and politics. and it sucked that biden went to it.

The grimmest realization is not the very old one that Trump is a hyper-sensitive narcissist who thinks criticizing him should be illegal. The grimmest realization is that a substantial number of Americans are born serfs, best suited for a monarchy, who thinks that’s manly and admirable and right.

Every member of the Democratic Party needs to read this @rtraister.bsky.social piece ASAP. open.substack.com/pub/rebeccat...

Facism isn’t very popular!

We are all in the debris field of a SpaceX mishap

This is what blue maga doesn’t get. They’re so invested in defending the democrats they ridicule the notion of fighting and losing. But those losses are how you win.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

Trump Claims He Can Overrule Constitution With Executive Order Because Of Little-Known ‘No One Will Stop Me’ Loophole

A conversation I just had.👇

the onion never misses

I want people to understand this. For many of them, democracy ended when Obama was elected twice and Black Lives Matter rose to prominence. This is them “fixing” a system that felt broken and newly unsafe to them.

Someone said gravitational pull from hell

Only slightly different.

Democrats are not sending their best

Yikes, I missed this one!

‘Our job is to be truthful not neutral’: Christiane Amanpour on Trump, tech and fighting for the truth www.theguardian.com/media/2025/j...

They tried to erase history. We loudly said "Hell no." They folded. We should say "Hell no" a lot more.

Like 8000 different groups are doing a shitton of small but important work to resist right now and it is far more useful for you to get plugged in with one of them than it is to wonder aloud where the protests are

Don't smartwash Trump

Just about every criticism and joke I see about Hegseth references alcohol. His relationship with extremist fundamentalist pastor, Doug Wilson is way more harmful & dangerous. Wilson despises women & speaks on it often; he teaches that slavery was good for the enslaved; & protects pedophiles.

So much for that whole “take care that the laws be faithfully executed” and “support and defend the Constitution of United States.”

I used to think this kind of crap was unbelievable, but nothing is unbelievable any more. They have no bottom.

Before the election, I warned that Trump would pardon all of the Jan. 6 defendants and some of them would form the core of a new rightwing paramilitary organization loyal to Trump. At the time, people dismissed me as alarmist. I stand by that prediction.

just a blanket note here: i am going to hold the democratic party effing accountable for insufficient opposition to trump. thats what i did not only during his first term but through the 8 years of bush. the party does not fight hard enough against the evils of conservatism.

This remains, and I say this advisedly, one of the best exchanges I have ever seen on social media

So far 7 of the people who've responded to this post have simply bragged that they don't care about actual facts, they have their belief and they're going to stick with it. This is why I call them MGAnoners. Classical conspiracy thinking. www.emptywheel.net/2024/12/30/t...

The BezosPost Struggles with the Boundaries of Press Freedom www.emptywheel.net/2024/12/23/t...

People love to say that politicians that buckle under to fascists, like Lindsey Graham and John Fetterman do so because “they have something on them.” I don’t believe in that kind of thing. Some people just suck. The answer is usually much simpler.

Trump Is Not on a "Retribution Tour;" He's on an Authoritarian Spree www.emptywheel.net/2024/12/18/t...
