Rash overreaction. It's easier than thinking. But much more dangerous.

Except, of course, it’s *not* all he can say.

Cassidy could concede publicly that confirming Kennedy was a tragic mistake. He could call for RFK Jr's resignation. He could schedule hearings, haul the secretary to Capitol Hill, and demand the CDC’s public resources reflect the scientific cannon.

Former Pentagon chief Esper says Trump asked about shooting protesters NPR's Michel Martin speaks with Mark Esper about his forthcoming book, "A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Secretary of Defense During Extraordinary Times."

Many are struggling to understand what “illegal orders” the members of Congress could be referring to. But we’ve already seen examples. During his first term, Trump asked, “Can’t you just shoot them? Shoot them in the legs,” referring to protesters. #holdfast

OUTRAGEOUS ‼️ IMPEACH‼️

That's kind of a cheap shot. And equally ridiculous. Manny is extremely intelligent side maybe Trump sees the legitimacy of his plans as explained by him.

Astonishing

What a ridiculous take. Do you want him to fight every battle right there at their meeting creating as much animosity as he possibly can? Good thing you're not him.

This is surreal

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.

In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

👏👏👏 thank you for your service and thank you for upholding the law and democracy in America

Is that why Le Pen almost won in France? Putin is in power, Orban, .... its quite a long list actually. Everybody likes to blame America but it's a human thing. Aggression mixed with stupidity.

The Pig Is in the White House This is what consequence-free misogyny looks like.

Wyden Presses for Investigation Into JPMorgan Chase and Epstein

EPSTEIN BOMBSHELL: my staff is releasing a new report showing JPMorgan Chase executives – all the way to the top – enabled Epstein's sex trafficking operation. You're going to want to read this.

He's talking about himself

Leaving it to next guy doesn't seem honorable to me

Good point

To everyone saying that people in our military already know not to follow unlawful orders, how do you explain almost 100 civilians murdered on fishing boats in the Caribbean so far?

Fucksakes

A dangerous and traitorous sociopath leads the United States.

He's got that partially right. He would have been hanged on Jan 6 or 7. At a minimum Samuel Adams and the fighters for independence crowd would have tarred, feathered and run DJT out of DC and confiscated his property. Ironic that the constitution has protected trump.

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.
