BREAKING: Pam Bondi just told a federal court that the Trump administration—and ONLY the Trump administration—can hold itself accountable for crimes. That’s not a legal argument. That’s a declaration of authoritarian rule. www.newsweek.com/doj-responds...

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @dccartoonist.bsky.social )

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So does the #jury #summons hold any weight? Says under penalty of contempt I must present myself before the judge 8:30 am Monday. I mean really, #scotus doesn't enforce shit now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you’re changing the definition of human rights, it means you plan on violating people’s human rights.

With these posts, they’ve made it essentially inarguable that they’re deliberately defying the Supreme Court.

Trump admin is again openly defying a court order. He is making a mockery of our Constitution. How much will Congress tolerate? www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/u...

A lot of people seem to think following the U.S. Constitution is optional—like picking which shoes to wear in the morning. It’s not. If you’re within the boundaries of the United States, the Constitution applies to you.

How are we supposed to pay tax if the IRS website is down?

Thought of the day…

This is in a little town about 10 miles from me. I had to stop and take a picture. It’s symbolic of what is happening to democracy right before our eyes.

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

Ope.

My hometown paper ☕️💅🏽

This is just fucking embarrassing. Yeah, let's bitch about Zelensky's black sweatshirt. Tacky MF'r. apple.news/AjYxl1Du6Smu...

If Trump is willing to hurt the economy, he must be getting something he wants even more in return. That thing is power. With tariffs, Trump can exercise a kind of corruption that the country hasn’t experienced in some 150 years.

I did not make this and don't know who did, all the same - lmao

One man’s temper tantrum to feel powerful is having devestating consequences

BREAKING: The Department of Defense Inspector General has launched an investigation into Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for sharing secret attack plans against the Houthis using Signal.

Finally *liberated* from a strong economy, record stock market, and historically low unemployment.

Goodyear was upgraded earlier this week on the notion they will more than offset a loss from lower auto sales with higher tire *replacement* sales. We all keep our old cars for longer. $GT

160 years ago today, the traitor Jefferson Davis and his treasonous cabinet abandoned Richmond, the capital of the Confederacy, spelling the beginning of the end of the Civil War. A day for all patriots to celebrate.

I'm in Japan, its really impressive to be in a fully functioning county. People appreciate safety, clean public restrooms, unity and individuality, cherry blossoms, cultter, old and new art. No litter, no begging. My host feels sorry for USA's quick turn to the bottom.

Walz: "My beef on this is that this guy is out there crying about his portfolio, and my mom's Social Security check this month is late. That he's attacking the portfolios of working Minnesotans and working Americans who have paid into these programs that he calls a Ponzi scheme."

The tariffs are catastrophic. But so too are the abuses of power, so is the corruption, so are the police state tactics, so is the destruction of our health care infrastructure, so are the ways our national security is being endangered, so are the attacks on our core freedoms.
