ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

"Immigrants didn't steal my job. The president did."

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine is the grandson of Valery Martynov - a “former” KGB spy. That’s right, one of Elon Musk’s young cyber criminals — related to a former KGB spy, and who seemingly did not have to undergo a background check — now has unprecedented access to…

Five things I accomplished last week: 1. Sued Musk & DOGE (repeatedly) 2. Got Musk blocked out of Treasury 3. Sued Trump (repeatedly) 4. Helped persuade SCOTUS to leave anti-Trump injunction in place 5. Got booked @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social Join us at 9 AM ET Sunday morning to discuss!

Amen to that.

(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The Daily Beast publishes a sourced allegation that Trump has been a Russian spy since 1987 and then—possibly under some form of threat—deletes it. But in an act of unusual heroism, it left it up long enough for Wayback Machine to capture it text. Here it is (please share):

This may be @adamserwer.bsky.social's most incisive work since "The Cruelty Is the Point." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

For those at the back…

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Wow! Congrats to Bluesky for passing the milestone of 32 MILLION users. Spread the word!! 💙🦋 bsky-users.theo.io

The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

He nails it.

When the stupid reveals itself..once again.. We don’t do kings, no matter how hard you try, asshole 🖕🏻 #SheShed

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

A former Soviet intelligence officer alleges Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.” Alnur Mussayev served in the 6th Directorate, responsible for counter-intelligence support in the economy. One key objective was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.”

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

I have never doubted for one second that Trump is a rapist. The way he talks about Ukraine really confirms it. Ukraine sure as fuck wasn’t asking to be invaded.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

MAGA White Supremacists: “Message received, Mr. Trump!”

When even the New York Post has to publish this, you know you fucked up.

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, ProPublica’s analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

Over 72 million Americans rely on Medicaid for life-saving healthcare. That’s 72 million people—children, seniors, people with disabilities—who would suffer without it. Don’t cut my Medicaid.

Casually bringing this back… #OCanada 🍁

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

People need to understand this: Trump did not leave office willingly the first time. If his health holds up, he will not leave office willingly this time. He is not joking about serving more than two terms.

Twitter is now an American right wing disinformation machine interfering in global politics. Your participation in it, is collaboration and nothing less.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Canadians are now referring to the United States as the 11th province

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

Every day is a good day to remind you NOT to get medical advice about your healthcare or vaccines from people who are not trained or qualified to make these kinds of recommendations. If I am in legal trouble I talk to a lawyer If I want to learn about vaccines I talk to my doctor.

Pete Hegseth is about to purge military officers—and make no mistake, this is 100% political retribution. 📌 Sec of Defense Pete Hegseth is planning to fire generals and top officers as soon as this week, per two Defense officials and three Congressional sources. Most of them tied to Lloyd Austin.

Amanda Zurawski, one of the Texas women who nearly died due to the states abortion ban, has been named one of Time’s Women of the Year.

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"
