The Opportunistic Lies vs. The Pleasant Reality

Before Trump’s Reign of Terror, this pic would have made me think of a baseball game, not smashing a car window to kidnap children.

Portland is not on fire, but Donald Trump's, Stephen Miller's, and Karoline Leavitt's pants are.

Portland isn't burning tonight, but Donald Trump's crotch is.

Fascism occurs twice: first as the tragedy of a Second World War started by men who fought the First and knowingly chose slaughter, then as the farce of an ignorant draft dodger trying to provoke a war against his own people.

Why we can’t allow Trump to ban that other f-word | Will Bunch The column the Trump regime wants to ban: America has to call out surging fascism in order to defeat it.

The government does not have the power to declare “free speech zones.” And the violent arrest of the rabbi should set off some alarm bells.

Yarvin convinced a bunch of credulous tech billionaires that they needed to back an extreme, dumb, & wildly unpopular politics to “save western civilization.” We’re now getting that politics on steroids, and now he’s all “oh no, these policies are unpopular, must flee the country to save ourselves.”

Protecting Protesters and the Press from Unconstitutional Federal Force in Illinois Protect Democracy is suing the Trump administration for violating the First Amendment in Northern Illinois.

Every crisis is an opportunity. This is the moment for Dems on Capitol Hill to call a news conference and make clear: Not one dime to fund the federal government until Trump withdraws his unlawful orders and agrees not to send troops to occupy Democratic-run cities

Think the GOP's shutdown-driven health care crisis won't affect you? Think again.

If Republicans don't reverse course, average enrollee premiums on California's Health Insurance Exchange are set to skyrocket come January.

After shutting down the federal government and voting to do nothing about an imminent health insurance premium spike, House Republicans have now gone on a multi-week vacation.

Donald Trump and the GOP just aren't for the American people.

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.

The court granted our request for a Temporary Restraining Order — HALTING ANY FEDERALIZATION, RELOCATION, OR DEPLOYMENT of ANY GUARD MEMBERS TO OREGON FROM ANY STATE.

Trump’s abuse of power won’t stand.

California is the manufacturing capital of America, period.

We create more jobs, produce more goods, and drive more innovation than anywhere else in the country — because what gets built in California shapes the future and powers the U.S. economy.

BREAKING: We just won in court — again.

A federal judge BLOCKED Donald Trump’s unlawful attempt to DEPLOY 300 OF OUR NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS TO PORTLAND.

The Washington Post is awful, just awful.

I mean, is there any newspaper that is less trusted today vs a year ago? Does anyone think their coverage is "riveting"? He can't actually believe this, right?

I read @oliverdarcy.bsky.social's interview with WaPo's Matt Murray and I cannot believe he uttered these words: We’ve made great progress on an ambitious plan to reinvent The Post as the most trusted, accurate news organization in the world, with riveting and relevant information for all Americans.
