Someday people will stop fantasizing that Merrick Garland was ever a good and decent person

So preserving the filibuster for your potential use was more important to you than protecting healthcare for millions of Americans.

Thank you Senator that will be all.

Newly released emails show Democrats on House Oversight have damning, relevant information they have not been sharing. Fuck Mike Johnson, fuck decorum and any House vote, RELEASE EVERYTHING you have now and DEMAND HEARINGS for the rest of it.

'we decided to let this fight go, so Republicans might kill people later through unavailable and unaffordable healthcare'

there is no amount of lipstick that makes this pig look better

Genesis, Exododus, Levititicus...

sound like Chat GPT rewriting the old testament

Every 👏 word 👏 of 👏 this 👏

To be honest DC media acts like they expect to be on the invitation list, and they’re not squeamish about it.

Republicans refusal to uphold the Constitution is not a small problem. Trump is singularly awful, but we could not have fallen this far this fast without the acquiescence and cooperation of elected congressional Republicans who have bypassed or shirked every Constitutional safeguard.

Once again, the main day of Tea Party protests had about 300,000 nationwide, but saw endless coverage.

The No Kings protests had about 7,000,000 nationwide, and many media outlets reacted with a yawn.

No Kings was nearly 25x as big as the Tea Party but the Tea Party got 25x the attention.

Fascinating that restoration of Constitutional order doesn’t even rate a mention.

Maybe it’s just me but the Democratic Party’s tepid indifference for the practice of democracy seems problematic

No one should be surprised that Trump regime 'officials' are surprised by objective reality

It's not the world they live and work in

Hatch Act violations are now government policy across multiple agencies

I mean OF COURSE they are trying to help him

No one of conscience should be supporting this with a subscription

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

No one besides gutter racists wants this

The Bluesky version of obeying in advance

STFU is sometimes the best advice

The world needs more dinosaur art. And science.

Exceptionally misleading FFS Chris do better

If #ESPN and the #NFL can’t field two separate competent announcer teams for #MNF then just schedule the one game. SEA-HOU announcers are hot garbage.

I really need for people to see & acknowledge that the open racism & sexism in US public life today are directly downstream of the decade-long effort to destroy "woke," ie, anti-racism & anti-sexism. This was always the point.

Let's not true Scotsman this situation. 'Conservative' or not, the Republican Party is wholly responsible for refusing to exercise any restraint or oversight over this increasingly illegal and authoritarian regime.

This isn't about one awful individual.

I scrolled through the @1stforall.bsky.social's gallery of print front pages for local coverage of "No Kings" protests. Here are some of the standout papers, starting with the Daily Sentinel of Grand Junction, Colorado:

'Our fact checkers are saying either answer is correct'

See the difference? 👀

Feels quaint, almost cliché, to say this about a Trump action, but just for the record:

This is all illegal, the President can't simply disregard the laws passed and agencies created by Congress, and both Vought & Trump would be impeached if the Constitution or the rule of law mattered to the GOP.

The racist-ass Supreme Court says race can't be a factor for college admissions or redistricting but racial profiling is perfectly fine for ICE to bash brown and Black skulls.

F this corrupt institution.

Expand the Court.
