hey if you're visiting here because Vichy Twitter is down... don't go back! Bad website. Bluesky... pretty good website. At the very least, delete the X app from your phone and set your account to protected (when you can log in and do that again)

This isn't a surprising but it is devastating.

The great betrayal of Ukraine begins.

We, in Europe, are in a place of danger.

We all owe Ukraine & its people a debt of gratitude for its extraordinary courage. 😢

Wishing everyone a peaceful evening as we continue this fight for our democracy.

Los Angeles is bracing for the biggest storm we’ve had since the fires over a month ago. (Wed-Sat) And I am worried about the hillsides near PCH which were scorched and don’t have the brush to hold back the soil. Expecting lots of canyon and road closures and of course, PCH will likely be shut down.

If you are looking for someone to say that all is lost and the courts can't help protect democracy, you are following the wrong guy.

If you are looking for someone who fights hard and will never give up, I'm here for you.

"This marks the first time a president has removed his predecessor’s board members at the Kennedy Center and installed himself as chair."

Thanks, Post.

Married women could be stopped from voting under SAVE Act The act could affect whether married women without passports are able to register to vote.

Texas Rep. Introduces The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act preventing 69 million married women from being able to register to vote.

It requires a birth certificate that matches their current name, which is a problem for women who changed their legal name when they got married

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

If the Trump White House Spokesbot tells you there's not constitutional crisis...there's a constitutional crisis.

From now on I'll be calling the Pacific Ocean the Westy Waters.
Didn't know we could just change the name of things willy nilly and really looking forward to you all hopping on board with my new decisions.

Treasury officials: Musk ally ‘mistakenly’ given power to alter payments system The incident prompted an internal forensic investigation that remains ongoing.

“Mistakenly.” As if. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Fuck Ron Johnson 🖕

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is *on its face* a violation the equal protection of the laws.

The only way I can interpret the GOP's actions is that they are 100% certain they will never face another democratic election again.

They hit the shore and burned their ships.

Trump fires at least 12 independent inspectors general in late-night purge The dismissals could clear the way for the president to install loyalists in the crucial role of identifying fraud, waste and abuse in the government.

Breaking WaPo:

The White House — late Friday night — fired the independent inspectors general of at least 12 major federal agencies in a purge that could clear the way for Trump to install loyalists in the crucial role of identifying fraud, waste, and abuse.
www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.

What Elon Musk’s Salute Was All About A gesture associated with the Nazis has a surprising history. But in Germany, there was little doubt about its meaning.

“A Hitler salute is a Hitler salute is a Hitler salute,” the prominent German weekly Die Zeit wrote in an editorial.

There’s a very real chance that the newly confirmed Secretary of Defense wakes up tomorrow in a puddle of his own vomit in a motel room with a woman who isn’t his wife.

I’ll never get over that all of this was avoidable and our kids could’ve had a better future had voters just made the obviously rational choice in November. It’s water under the bridge now. But what the fuck, people.

Woman arrested in fatal shooting of Border Patrol agent in Vermont | CNN A woman has been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of US Border Patrol agent earlier this week on a highway in Vermont close to the US-Canadian border, the FBI office in Albany said Frida...

The story of the shooting death of a CBP officer in Vermont just got kinda weird, if police are to be believed.

He’s off enjoying the proceeds from his Ohio cannabis farm investments.

The future of America is determined by the quality of its leadership:

— Convicted felons.
— Rapists.
— Sex abusers.
— Alpha Male wannabes.
— Self-serving fascist billionaires.
— Pathological liars.
— Racists.
— Propaganda whores.
— Violent cult leaders.

This is where America is headed.
