One person having the power to upend entire industries and economic sectors on a whim every day that puts companies out of business and workers out of jobs with no legislative input is an autocracy, regardless of whether that person initially acquired power through an election.

How can we trust Trump to regulate crypto when he has financial stakes in the industry?

There are even worse conflicts when foreign governments are involved

This is autocracy run amok—I discussed @anacabrera.bsky.social

Hasan Piker detained at the border and questioned for hours over politics "They straight up tried to get something out of me that I think they could use to basically detain me permanently"

“The reason they’re doing [this] is to try to create an environment of fear, to try to get people like myself... to shut the fuck up,” Piker said on a stream recounting the details of the incident.

I was reading the comments on a local news article about Medicaid cuts and a Missouri woman called having access to healthcare a “lifestyle” that isn’t meant for folks who can’t afford it.

I have never read anything more sad, or American, in my life…

Remember that several people asked Pam Bondi during confirmation SPECIFICALLY what she would do on matters pertaining to Qatar (which she did not disclose) or GEO (pertinent to the Baraka arrest). She said she'd consult top career lawyer at DOJ abt recusal.

Then she fired that lawyer.

The plane truth

A president who governs by “Executive Orders” is weak, not strong.

Shut it down.

Below is the most wholesome interview clip I’ve seen today.

The fierce love & trust from family members must keep Gov.Walz ticking.

They’re detaining and harassing Twitch streamers for their political opinions.

Only a matter of time now before Trump starts arresting all your favorite writers for thought crimes.

Yup. That’s the one.

The Constitution disagrees. The Emoluments Clause, part of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, bans office holders from taking ANY gifts from foreign countries. There is no mention of quid pro quo. That is because the Founding Fathers knew that even the *appearance* of corruption promotes corruption.

New Colorado Law Enhances Protections Against Voter Discrimination “Colorado is paving a different path by acting on its own to strengthen our right to vote,” said one advocate.

The governor of Colorado signed a bill into law that significantly bolsters protections against voting discrimination and reinforces access to the ballot. It also safeguards the right to vote for Black Coloradans and other communities of color by going after racial vote dilution & voter suppression.

Because the orange Cheeto lies about everything. If he actually doesn't know what he is doing, perhaps the 25th amendment needs enactment

What is going on at the Library of Congress must be watched

Welcome to America where lawlessness reigns.

Confronting the Arrogant Lawlessness Senators Chris Murphy and Patty Murray incisively criticized the illegality and inhumanity of Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security. It's a start, but not enough to overcome this cruel regime.

"Your agency acts as if laws don’t matter, as if the election gave you some mandate to violate the Constitution and the laws passed by this Congress. It did not give you that mandate."

--Sen. Chris Murphy confronting DHS Secy Kristi Noem
