Bingo

A couple of years ago, I noticed that Dems were losing ground with Latino voters. I launched a Spanish-language YouTube channel to reach those people. That channel is now on its way to 300,000 subscribers and has nearly 50 million views. We have be aggressive and go into spaces we're not already in.

This makes me so very happy. This ball sack of a toddler pretending to be a grown man is almost in tears. The boycott is working and will work if we pass the word his companies are dead to us.

Someone tell DOGE! Brutal photo by huff post i love it

What do you call Tesla charging stations being vandalized in a non-insane country? Because it's sure as shit not domestic terrorism. I'd call it pretty damn funny.

Oh man, his cronies are trying to make fetch happen.

It is utterly disgraceful that, more than 24 hours after hearing of 4 dead U.S. soldiers in Lithuania, trump still has made NO public statement about it. We know how he feels about his painting in Colorado, but not about 4 U.S. soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice.

The Secretary of Defense dressing like a frat boy going to a keg party. What an embarrassment and lack of respect to the military members who meet this homeless looking idiot.

WilmerHale was polite, professional, and direct. BigLaw could learn. Now, WilmerHale needs to actually fight this thing out. These orders are blatantly, insanely unconstitutional.

1/2 Counting active-duty, reserves, and contractors, some 3 million Americans are under direct/indirect authority of DOD. Every one of those 3 million—EVERY ONE—knows that if he or she had sent real-time info about combat operations on commercial platforms, their careers would be over. And worse.

Really feel like I’m losing my mind: government OBVIOUSLY cannot punish an individual law firm for hiring someone it disfavors! It’s ludicrously unconstitutional and I feel like without a day of law school I could argue the case. And yet the best paid lawyers in the country are folding?

Sometimes you just have to ask—why? The Senate voted to strike down a rule capping most bank overdraft fees at $5, a measure introduced by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that was expected to save Americans billions each year.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.

THE VERY WORST

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The only way to win is people power. That’s it. No institutions are going to save us. The courts won’t stop the authoritarians. Corporate interests won’t stop them. The Democratic party is too weak to stage a real fight against Trumpism. It must be pushed into fighting by a mass popular movement.

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

Just remember all this if there is a catastrophic intelligence failure under this administration. Because they will *immediately* try to crush dissent and offload blame.

Breaking

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos. Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

Yes. Mexico!

Let it begin.

Ossoff: He’s so consumed by his efforts to secure revenge, crush his enemies, and conquer Greenland that he’s doing nothing for the people who elected him. His entire domestic agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge, and centralizing as much power as he can..

I'm not saying anything novel here but it really is just truly despicable to watch them use THEIR OWN COLOSSAL SCREW UP to slander the reporter THEY INCLUDED ON THEIR CLASSIFIED GROUP CHAT

Happy #WellbeingWednesday lovely phone family. How's your week so far? I love this concept. I only heard it recently, but it's basically what I've always tried to do. See the little things that make you smile and appreciate life, even when times are tough ❤️ Have a fab day 😘 #HaveCourageAndBeKind 🥰

Ossoff: This is what happens when you have Fox News personalities cosplaying as government officials.

Who else AGREES with Pete?! 🤚

Thom Tillis casting the deciding vote to confirm Hegseth, and his shameful silence yesterday, should be a major issue in the 2026 NC Senate race.

Warner: And the idea somehow, well, none of this was classified, but we can't talk about it here. You can't have it both ways.

Pete Buttigieg had some things to say about today’s major US security failure. He called it a “MAJOR FUCK UP.” I’m not kidding, he said that, and he also said that “IT’S BULLSHIT.”🤭 He is NOT impressed.😐

Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow. Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand . adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-signal...

Disgraceful response. They never take responsibility. Pete Hegseth put our national security at risk. He is completely unfit to lead.

The White House has apparently decided the best course of action is to lie their way through it.

If these men had any sense of honor, they would already have resigned. The fact that they are all still in their jobs is just as damning as their terrifying and lawless incompetence.

I saw the work by Olga Lautman and he findings were disturbing: Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the signal chat. Russia has infiltrated Signal and used against Ukrainians. Very possible they have the classified signal info:

It breaks my heart that the federal employees in the education department are losing approximately 50 percent of their jobs! They are packing up and we at blue sky show our support! How many people will not be able to have their basic needs before he stops! We are the champions for all people !

The latest crazy just proves what we all know. They are discussing everything on Signal to avoid any discovery or FOIA or archival laws. So illegal but here we are.
