This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.

America is on the brink of martial law.

Do not be silent.

I’ve been sort of idly keeping track of all the points in the Declaration of Independence’s bill of particulars that arguably apply to the Trump Admin. This is the first four-in-a-row I’ve hit. www.archives.gov/founding-doc...

Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.

Lyndon B. Johnson's response to satire

I have been struck with something. We all mourn the death of Charlie Kirk. It absolutely was pure evil.

But there have been an immense amount of school shootings… against children.. and the GOP doesn’t show 1/456th of the remorse they demand America shows for Charlie

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

The need to silence your critics only reveals how weak and fragile you are.

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Not even then. There is no guarantee that the political winds won't shift back. We are looking at generations worth of damage from eight months of this administration. There is no reason to trust the American people to not support destructive, racist policy.

🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump and his allies are intensifying their dangerous and anti-democratic threats to use Charlie Kirk’s murder to suppress progressive political activity. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

So Trump and Republicans are going to stop calling Democrats radical left marxists who hate God, are anti-christian, hate America, steal elections, want to replace Americans with criminal migrants, and want to kill babies? When is that going to stop? bsky.app/profile/atru...

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class.

This is Kirk's legacy.

You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

Extreme gerrymandering. Nationalizing voter suppression. Weaponizing law enforcement. Occupying Democratic cities.

Trump is pulling out all the tricks in the authoritarian playbook to rig the next election.

Facts are facts: Right-wing extremists account for the overwhelming majority of extremist-linked deaths in America.

While we're all discussing how it's wrong to murder someone, let's not forget this:

Big Oil donates to his campaign...Trump hands out tax breaks and guts clean energy funding.

Fraudsters donate to his Super PAC...Trump hands out pardons.

Airlines donate to his inaugural fund...Trump cancels a rule requiring them to refund passengers.

Everything is for sale.

Raddatz asks how anyone could object to the National Guard in DC because carjackings are down 87%.

Brilliant. If they hermetically sealed all DC residents inside their homes, they could get that stat down to nothing at all.

Should we do that, Martha?

This is batshit crazy. It shows you how little Republicans care about the law or facts. They just want to please Trump and grab power.

We must fight back.🗳️⚖️💪

Christ says what we do for “the least of these” we do for him — so where is Christ today?

Christ is the immigrant deported without due process.

Christ is the protester kidnapped in an unmarked vehicle.

Christ is the student in an overcrowded classroom in a defunded school.

Texas Republicans want to force every public school teacher to display the Ten Commandments in their classroom.

I asked the bill author a simple question: “Is there a separation of church and state?”

She refused to answer.

Senate Republicans just sold out the sick and the hungry to cut taxes for the rich and the powerful.

What would Jesus do about this “Big Beautiful Bill”?

I think he would flip over the tables of injustice and call on us to do the same.

ATTENTION Journalists, learn from this man.

HE DID WHAT YOU WON’T.

The American public elected a president and administration who whether they knew it or not was intent on dismantling the very things that made America the economic and cultural envy of the world. That is the story of Trump 2.0.

We need more kindness!

This regime is gutting vital services relied upon by millions...all to extend even more tax cuts (and subsidies) to the super-rich.
