The canceling of Colbert shows that corporations donβt really care how obvious it is that theyβve caved to fascism, because they donβt believe theyβll suffer any consequences for it. We need to make sure that they do.

Iβm starting to suspect that the president might not be in charge of his administration, but weβll have to wait four years for Jake Tapper to look into it I guess?

And THIS is why you donβt lie to the court. Or anyone really. Especially if youβre not competent enough to remember your lies.
Fuck this guy forever.
I think the only fair way to settle this would be an ever escalating βrelease incriminating evidence against the other personβ battle.

NYT Breaking News Paramount agreed to pay President Trump $16 million to settle his lawsuit over a "60 Minutes" interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris.
weβve totally normalized that heβll interfere with private business if heβs not paid off. every legal expert said this suit was meritless.
At this point, Karoline Leavittβs press briefings should come with a Surgeon Generalβs warning: βMay cause dizziness, gaslighting, and a complete detachment from reality.β
Itβs costing taxpayers $450/M annually & Alligator Alcatraz concentration camp is already flooding. Imagine a hurricane. People are going to die.
Thereβs always enough money to hurt folks, but when it comes to public transit, low-income housing, schools, or public healthcare, βSorry, weβre broke.β

Ron DeSantis should be brought up on criminal charges.
Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.
One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.
They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.
I wish Democrats would fight as hard against Donald Trump as they do against Zohran Mamdani.
Hot take: Not only are work requirements for Medicaid bad, tying health care to work at all is cruel and we should be doing it less not more.
Everyone deserves health care. Everyone.
the reason I am so supportive of primaries is that I recognize the reality that the Democratic Party is the only viable alternative we have to the Republicans under our current system of elections and I also recognize how deeply inadequate many of our current Dems are at fighting this administration
Weβre lighting the I-35W bridge green tonight and tomorrow in honor of Melissa Hortman, who found joy and peace in trees and gardens π³
Yet another ICE impersonator caught. How many are they not catching?
As @MarshaBlackburn @SenJohnson & Sexton try to protect masked unidentified vigilantes with legislationβ we should be banning this dangerous insanity instead.
Itβs hard to think of a better encapsulation of the Democratic Party right now than a 13-post rationalization for why doing nothing is actually the smartest move.
Please donβt let the blatant racism cause you to miss the irony of @repandyogles wanting @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social deported because he claims he lied on a form β chefβs kiss perfection π
This is what a decent human being does. We were very lucky to have him as our president who did so much for Americans. I still canβt believe what we have now.

When you know youβre cutting health care for the poor, and transferring TRILLIONS from the bottom to the top, this is what you do:
We were just suspended without warning from threads and Instagram. We have no idea why.
If any of yβall are on those apps and want to let them know to fix that we would be appreciative.
DISASTROUS. This means they will send people to horrific situations with no due process β in direct violation of promises the Solicitor General made to the Court in previous cases.
This greenlights sending people to be enslaved in Libya or tortured in any random foreign country.
This is a horrifying ruling that shows a disdain for basic human rights principles β made all the more unconscionable by the fact that the Republican appointees did so with no reasoning and on the shadow docket.
This is a devastating ruling. You can read it, and Sotomayor's biting dissent here: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...
(n) Therefore, it is the purpose of this chapter to prohibit medical procedures from being administered to or performed on minors when the purpose of the medical procedure is to: (1) Enable a minor to identify with, or live as, a purported identity inconsistent with the minor's sex; or (2) Treat purported discomfort or distress from a discordance between the minor's sex and asserted identity.
Tennessee's youth transition ban is straightforwardly discriminatory. It bans puberty blockers, hormones and surgeries *only* when they are used to affirm a trans identity

We are all the couch now.
It should be illegal for law enforcement to wear masks and not show ID.
This makes it too easy to impersonate law enforcement and murder people in their homes.
