“If a party can make himself a judge of the validity of orders which have been issued, and by his own act of disobedience set them aside, then are the courts impotent, and what the Constitution now fittingly calls ‘the judicial power of the United States’ would be a mere mockery.”

You can’t make this shit up. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Please explain it to me like I’m…ya know what, never mind.

A personal note about the @katiephangshow.bsky.social:

More of this pointed ridicule, please.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

On Ukraine, Europe must step into the void | Virgin

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

No democracy movement has ever failed when it was able to mobilize at least 3.5% of the population to protest over a sustained period.

With a population of 334.9 million, the U.S. would need to mobilize approximately 11.7 million people to assert democratic power on the government.

Let’s go.

I need someone to answer this damn question!

You dumbfucks said Biden wasn’t “really in charge” and then you handed Trump’s presidency to Elon fucking Musk?

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

I’m gonna need more Lexapro for this sh*t.

Arrest Musk and his aides. Now.

100K people demand Trump be impeached The nonprofit Free Speech for People is leading a new nonpartisan campaign to drum up support for U.S. President Donald Trump's removal—"Impeach Trump Again"— and reported as of Thursday the effort ha...

"The overwhelming support for impeachment shows that the American public is not willing to accept King Trump."

Forced Resignations Are Illegal – 5 CFR § 715.202 states that federal resignations must be voluntary. An email implying "uncertainty of your position" while pushing resignation deadlines could be considered coercion.

Anti-ICE protesters are blocking both sides of the 101 Freeway near the Alameda Street exit in DTLA. The CHP has since closed that portion of the freeway.

@aoc.bsky.social @repjasmine.bsky.social You’re the only two I trust to act. Please go or send someone down to OPM.

Stop purchasing things.

If you need to stock up now, do it immediately before Tuesday.

It's time to make a stand with your wallets and purses.

If you want to impose tariffs and hurt Americans, we can do something about it.

This month is "F" you February.

Stop purchasing goods immediately.

Have Elon and his people arrested. They were not elected. This is not a political matter. It is a legal one. They have hacked into our systems with sensitive and personal data. That is illegal.

Homan went on CNN to complain that ICE’s attempts to arrest Chicagoans has been hampered by the people’s knowledge of policy—largely because of the city’s “Know Your Rights” campaign. Fascists rely on your compliance. On your ignorance. They depend upon your fear.

Disappoint them.
