So Patel fired an FBI trainee cause he had a pride flag on his desk? What a weak little 🐈

Three years ago today, @chrislhayes.bsky.social on @allinwithchris.bsky.social gave me my nickname, 'Some rascal on the internet' showing both of my DeSantis white boots meme: the unsexy Green M&M and the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader. Boy, I can't believe that was only three years ago. Thank you, Chris

Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life?

If you wonder how bad the Epstein Files are for Donald, he had the federal government shut down so you wouldn't find out.

Almost three-quarters of Americans say the economy isn’t good, and more than half blame Trump.

A screenshot of an X post with a black background and white text, featuring a "Being Liberal" logo in the top right corner. The post lists products launched by Donald Trump, including TrumpRX, Trump Gold Card, Trump Mobile, Trump Coin, and Trump Social/Truth Social. It also mentions upcoming projects: Trump Golf Resort in Qatar, Trump Plaza in Saudi Arabia, and Trump Tower in UAE. Additional claims include Melania having a crypto coin, Jared buying EA, and Trump accepting a $40M jet from Qatar. The post ends with a sarcastic remark about the Bushes and Clintons being the "swamp" and questions about grocery bills, salaries, and the feeling of getting poorer while the president and his family get richer.

And this is just a small sample of the scams and the grift!

Just an FYI: We’re not facing a “government shutdown.” This is a Trump-MAGA Republican shutdown. Call it what it is.

Absolutely bizarre. Trump takes credit for a judge blocking HIS OWN PLAN to cut $34 million in funding for counterterrorism in New York.

Mexico has the peso, we’re getting the pedo.

Soon, the majority of government shutdown days *in all of US history* will have happened on Donald Trump's watch.

Oregon AG Rayfield: The first thing that might’ve told you the federal government wasn’t doing so hot was when they started off some of their arguments by talking about Truth Social as their source of facts.

Actually got a comment from the judge: “Is this really how you’re going to move forward?”

Violent thugs are terrorizing Americans and they were sent by the White House.

Which judges have ruled against the Trump admin?

Reagan appointed judges .
Clinton appointed judges.
Bush appointed judges.
Obama appointed judges.
Biden appointed judges.
Trump appointed judges.

🤔🥴😂

Trump “misplaced” $17 TRILLION. That’s not Monopoly money that’s corruption on steroids. Ally Sammarco @allysammarco.bsky.social and I break it down on our latest episode.

so i don’t think this should be a hot take but for the record i think the chances republicans give up power without some level of violence - a mini jan 6 at best - is basically nil.

Thanks Carl!

It was clear from the beginning that ICE staffing up was going to be a full employment program for racists, barroom bullies and wife beaters

There has been basically no (public) reckoning with the democratic strategists who said that "raising the salience" of immigration/deportations in ~March would help Trump, which was obviously wrong at the time and has been proved wrong over the last 6 months www.gelliottmorris.com/p/kilmar-abr...

Specifically, the President can only exercise this power if he is doing so in a way that is "conceived in good faith." Sterling v. Constantin, 287 U.S. 378, 389-400 (1932). supreme.justia.com/cases/federa...

i almost admire how wurman makes with total confidence claims that are such total bullshit that they don’t even require much in the way of work to debunk.

i think anyone taught by ilan wurman ought to ask the university of minnesota law school for their money back

Would honestly not be surprised if he instigates a war to try to stay in power.

somehow they managed to do the free press but worse

The media trots out the "deplorable" comment from a decade ago to castigate the left. Once a week now Trump implies that the military should destroy democrats, and it is just how things are.

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

"This Week in Democracy – Week 37: Trump Goes Full Fascist and Denounces 'Enemy From Within'"

Another week of Zeteo's project to document the growth of authoritarianism in Trump's second term.

Miller’s apparent elevation to shadow president and his seeming intent to declare an end to the constitutional order would, in any other administration, be treated as a executive branch meltdown that was immensely embarrassing for the president and requiring Miller’s immediate removal

He seems to have literally gone mad with power, thinking he can just bluster the country into some kind of Fourth Reich with the power of screechy Twitter posts written with all the forced bombast that an insecure dweeb imagining himself as Goebbels can muster.
