Essential, spine-tingling reading for the 4th of July holiday weekend. And if you can catch Judge Luttig's discussion with Jim Acosta YouTube, please do so. And please spread the word. It's beautifully written, too. www.telos.news/p/luttig-the...
Is Chris Mason okay? Genuine question.
He appears to be on the verge of frothing at the mouth when he reports. Rabies?
Me: "What's your advice to Democrats?"
@briantylercohen.bsky.social: "Fight, fight, fight, fight. There is such an absence of an ability to fight. For so long we have been the Dick Durbin party of impotence."

How to protect immigrants: If you know someone scheduled for an immigration hearing, help them petition to do it online, so ICE canβt grab them at the courthouse. USC Agents of Change volunteers help get it done. 888-462-5211. In English and Spanish. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYHh... Please Repost!
Mamdani: "I've already had to start get used to the fact that the president will talk about how I look, how I sound, where I'm from, ultimately bc he wants to distract from what I'm fighting for. I'm fighting for the the very working people he ran a campaign to empower that he has since betrayed."
This is the rhetoric of a country about to do a genocide
I would wager that transported livestock have more rights. π€¬
Florida's FEMA money is to build an immigration detention site (let's just call it what it is until proved otherwise: a concentration camp) in the Everglades.
Good luck with hurricane season, I guess? π€¬ #alligatoralcatraz www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/all...
I couldn't have said it better myself.
If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War wonβt cost a lot of money
3) We wonβt need a lot of troops
4) Weβll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) Weβll find WMDs
6) Weβll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It wonβt take long
All lies.
He *chooses* to look like an over-baked, sat-on-the-buffet-table- for-days discounted ham? Egads.
Masked federal agents just illegally arrested New York Cityβs elected Comptroller. Outrageous.
The Trump Administration went after Brad Lander for asking this simple question: βDo you have a warrant?β By asking this question, Brad was standing up for the basic rights of all Americans.
Stunning. Go Philly!!
Hello, Edinburgh friends! Is there a protest planned tomorrow in our fair city to coincide with Trump's ghastly, costly military parade? If so, when and where? Thanks!
Dedicated civil servants throughout government feel compelled to quit rather than violate their personal, professional, and/or legal obligations. Fortunately, rather than slink away, many have been speaking out, making a record of MAGAβs nihilistic destruction of functional government.

A must-read commentary thread on the changed and changing information landscape and how it directly and indirectly affects how democracies work - and how we think about reality.
Every Republican in Congress should be ashamed and removed from office. I can not wait for the trials and the punishment.

Elon v Trump: This is really going to kick off overnight, isn't it? *sets alarm for 2 am*
I was surprised. It is sad that it is noteworthy to see this kind of headline in the NYT
Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people
Milquetoast mutterings. Good god. π

We need a @ledbydonkeys.org style projection of this on the Iowa state capitol building. Or on a huge delivery truck that will drive through persuadable areas.
It's going to be a feckin merry-go-round of z-list, cretinous replacements, isn't it?
