Miller, the deputy White House chief of staff, has never hidden his disfigured & dangerous psyche. But now Trump has empowered him to execute his fascist impulses, writes John Harwood for Zeteo.

Absolutely fantastic news today, I'm proud to welcome councillor Toby Benton, who left the labour party to join the Greens today.

Welcome home, Cllr Benton.

And they say gay relationships don’t last. Our friends Bobby and Roy are celebrating 60 years together today #LoveisLove ❤️❤️❤️

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

Donald was seven years old, and his father was brought before a U.S. Senate committee investigating abuses in a housing program for war veterans and middle class families. President Eisenhower had been outraged to learn of the bribes that developers paid to bureaucrats and of the alleged profiteering practiced by Trump and others. Ike called them "sons of bitches." As federal investigators had discovered, the elder Trump had collected an extra $1.7 million in rent-equivalent to $15 million today-before beginning to pay back his low-cost government loan. He was able to do this because a bureaucrat named Clyde Powell approved the paperwork. Powell, who had never been paid more than a modest government salary, had mysteriously amassed a small fortune. (While it was clear Powell accepted bribes, the sources were never officially identified.) In addition to collecting the extra rent, Trump paid himself a substantial architect's fee. And he charged inflated rents based on an estimate of construction costs that was far greater than what he actually spent. All of this was legal, even if it did victimize taxpayers, veterans, and other renters.

It’s no wonder that Trump has such a twisted view of war and sacrifice. And the utility of bribes.

Do you know how happy Russell Vought is about the shutdown. He is sound-of-music twirling through every room.

if anyone is interested, my friend lucia has been giving classes in jewish liberation theology for well over a decade

Liberation theology in the USA. More please.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

This is the fucking Prussian constitutional crisis. If you let them fund the military without Congressional authorization you've just given up on constitutional government. Congress is a dead letter.

Who owns the army is THE constitutional question of the 17th century

Many historians of Rome identify Roman generals becoming the personal sources of payment for their armies as a key step in the downfall of the Republic, since it personalized military authority and freed armies to fight for their immediate leader, who paid them, instead of for the Republic

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News. A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

James Woods @RealJamesWoods For those who actually respect history, the origin story of Antifa is well documented. Antifa is an organization that emerged with the “German Communist Antifaschistische Aktion” movement in the 1930’s. German Communists smeared anyone to their right as "fascists,” a common ploy used by the ignorant hysterical activists of the Democrat Party today. Like today’s leftist loonies, the German Antifa of the Weimar years even labeled the leftwing SDP as "social fascists." Today’s Antifa are a paramilitary mob used by the usual suspects to foment fake “mass protests” and burn down cities. The same puppet masters of the Democrat activist judges ruining America today also fund these “useful idiots” of Antifa to impede the mandate given to the current President in his landslide last election victory.

Hey, what was happening in Germany in the 1930s? I forget.

Only somebody who’s confused a wannabe dictator for his country could call a No Kings march a “hate America rally”.

Gordon Brown and Neil Kinnock are trying to recycle themselves back into relevance to prop up Starmer and save the Labour party. Most comments I'm seeing are along the lines of "Nah. Too late. Fuck off".

It’s pronounced cyclist.

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News. A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

Dems floated a narrow bill to fund the military, which can’t move because the House isn’t in session. Meanwhile, DoD is now going to spend funds not appropriated by Congress to ensure military paychecks continue.

POTUS now both commands and provisions the military. Unconstitutional and SO dangerous

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

After Pakistan bombed Taliban figures a couple of days ago, Taliban reinforcements are now moving toward the front lines along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border.

It's not just higher taxes that should be getting pinned on Farage and Reform.

Absolutely superb effort by all those who voted for this, many of whom are now dead.

Who is occasionally saving my posts? It’s not you again is it, US border agents?

With news that they are trying to fire the staff of the MMWR, I thought I would note that AIDS first came to the attention of public health workers broadly from an MMWR report describing an unusual cluster of pneumonia in gay men in San Francisco.

The person in this costume has been doxed by Andy Ngo and should be protected at all costs.

Are these the govt-run grocery stores that GOP is pretending to be so mad about?

Just thinking about the sea of dress whites behind yamtits last weekend, clapping along with his insanity.
