On January 6, 2021, Donald Trump refused to order the National Guard to DC when then *were* needed.

On August 11, 2025, Donald Trump orders the National Guard to DC when they are *not* needed.

Both instances are examples of Trump's disregard for law, order, decency, and democracy.

Can we just get rid of him instead?

If The Epstein Files Are Full of Democrats, Why Won’t Trump Release Them? A letter from God to JD Vance.

Trump: "I'm going to see Putin. I'm going to Russia on Friday."

Trump is going to Alaska on Friday — which has not been part of Russia since 1867.

This would not be happening if African Americans weren't the largest demographic in Washington, DC. This is white supremacy.

"The U.S. government, the executive branch, the president has decided to ignore the law which was upheld in a 9-0 vote by the Supreme Court."

"Which never happens."

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

ICE Contractor Locked a Mother and Her Baby in a Hotel Room for Five Days The case raises questions about the types of facilities being turned into de facto detention centers as the Trump administration ramps up deportations

It's ICE detention by another name. (via @injusticewatch.org and @aurabogado.bsky.social)

He thinks he's the king of the world. The guy is batshit crazy and needs to be locked up in a padded cell.

It really pisses me off to watch trans people who stepped up to serve our country in the military be treated with such disrespect by this administration. No veteran deserves to be treated that way.

“An American Nightmare”: Three Men Deported to CECOT and Their Families Reflect on Their Monthslong Ordeal For months, Carmen, Lina and Doris awaited news about their loved ones, who were sent to a maximum-security Salvadoran prison by the Trump administration.

JD Vance is the ‘favourite’ to succeed me, says Trump The president made the comment after saying he would ‘probably not’ seek an unconstitutional third term

The president made the comment after saying he would ‘probably not’ seek an unconstitutional third term

He's insane. Everyone in this regime is insane. We are doomed.

Meiselas: Release the Epstein Files somehow for Donald Trump became, "Okay, you want me to release Ghislaine Maxwell from prison?" No! We don't want you to release the sex trafficker!!

This is not OK.

There are sources of hope all around us. Find them. Cling to them. Never give up. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-hope

Trump’s Efforts to Control Information Echo an Authoritarian Playbook

Trump's war on facts has reached a new level and the message is clear: Government officials who deal in data now fear they have to toe the line and adopt his version of reality no matter how false or risk losing their jobs. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/03/u...

Remember, Trump illegally ordered this impoundment of funds, but the GOP approved it after the fact in its rescission package. This is on them, too.

The man who had his doctor report that he’s 6’3”, 238 lbs fired the person in charge of reporting labor statistics.

In their defense, the authors of the Constitution could never have predicted that American voters would be this stupid.

Trump all but admitted they stole Pennsylvania & that Elon can do wonderful things with computers.

Texas is moving forward with its radical redistricting plan Will Democrats respond?

Texas Dems are considering fleeing the state (again) to block this gerrymander.
Meanwhile, Democratic governors in NY, CA, and IL are talking retaliation.
This is what happens when one party abandons all pretense of good-faith governing.
Buckle up.

Please share far and wide. Maybe someone, somewhere, will begin to get it and slowly we will turn the tide.
