Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Kristi Noem’s week: • Sent 400 ICE agents to Colorado and made ONE arrest. • Got the Acting Director fired. • Played dress-up cosplay. • Cheated with Corey Lewandowski. • Wacked more puppies and goats.

Idiocracy was a documentary.

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

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

Trump’s executive order shutting down DEI claims that recruiting diverse applicants “diminishes the importance of individual merit, aptitude, hard work, and determination.” Donald Trump’s war on DEI isn’t about merit.

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.

A recent report revisits President Trump’s ties with Russians a month before the 2024 election focusing what Mueller left unexplored It dives into Trump’s links with wealthy Russians,his Putin connections,the Deutsche Bank saga, and the mystery of Liu Lovaev! washingtonspectator.org/what-mueller...

NSF employees were unlawfully reclassified from career to probationary, and then fired. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

They do nothing that does not have corruption at its core. Follow the money.

Yesterday’s Krasnov revelations supported by another KGB source in 2021. #Krasnov www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021...

In 1987, Trump was having financial difficulties (he lost $1 Billion dollars from 1978-1990) - so he turned to Russia. The KGB literally paid for his trip to Russia, and he was recruited by the KGB. #Krasnov

Good thing we are not in a race against any adversarial countries over science and technology www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

MAGA are NAZIs. Unequivocally.

This hits hard.

Pay attention to this. Replacing JAGs with loyalists enables whatever orders Trump and Hegseth issue to be interpreted as lawful.

I only had a few hours of sleep because there were 82 such drones in our skies last night. Meanwhile, these liars took a Russian-made drone shot down by Ukraine, removed the Russian markings, and presented it as Iranian at their "сonservative сonference".

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

Germany invaded Poland — but blamed Poland for starting the war, and it remained a Hitler talking point for years. Russia invaded Ukraine — but blamed Ukraine for starting the war, and it remained a Putin talking point for years. And Donald Trump just repeated it.

It’s imperative at this point that Europe develop a defense posture independent of the United States, which should be treated as the ally of Russia that it has now become.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

No matter how preposterous, the Times headlines nearly every Trump story as if it were written by the White House comms team.

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

And there's going to be a lot of sketchy-to-blatantly unconstitutional orders coming in the next year.

Not an exaggeration. We are living through a geopolitical earthquake and the future of the planet depends on people recognizing that and, sadly, that the United States government is no longer on the side of democracy, the rule of law, the international order, progress, security or decency.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

Excellent, Janet Mills! "See you in court." Meanwhile the Idiot-King spouts "we are the law."

Firing all the JAGs is very very bad

It’s a cult.

Dr. King said of all the inequalities, inequality in healthcare is the most shocking and inhumane. The proposal by MAGA extremists to cut YOUR Medicaid to give the wealthiest Americans a tax cut is inhumane. Light up those phone lines! (202) 224-3121 #DontCutMyMedicaid

Firing all of the JAGs (Judge Advocates General)—the top lawyers in each service branch—is just as bad as, if not worse than, firing (most of) the Joint Chiefs.

Everyone needs to call is what it is: a purge of non-loyalists. An unprecedented purge. That’s what it is. A purge. And CQ Brown has long been in the top of the purge list which is likely to be deep and vast. And of course, ridiculous, dangerous and bad for our national security. But it is a PURGE.

Please proceed to the cashier’s window to collect your winnings. Thank you and congratulations on your successful wager

The quickening pace of corruption - the brazen use of the White House to enrich himself and his friends - is stunning. Soon, before we know it, government will no longer serve us at all. It will just be a mechanism to enrich billionaires loyal to Trump.

The reason there are a lot of court orders telling Trump he can't do things is because he's been doing a crazy huge amount of illegal shit in his first three weeks in office. This isn't rocket science. It's basic physics - action and reaction.

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

I don't think people really get how these employee purges are just going to break the culture of public organizations for a very long time.

What’s happening is a generational wound

Business acumen? Trump bankrupted 3 casinos and had over 10 businesses that failed: Trump Airlines, Trump University, Trump Water… just to name a few. Uninformed, gaslit voters have helped bring about the end of our Republic.

The unraveling of Medicare has begun👇
