To be clear.

When Noem says "the right people voting" she is talking about a purge that goes way beyond the occasional and rare as teeth on a chicken "voter traud" they keep shrieking about.

She is talking about YOUR vote.

And MINE.

interesting to think that revolutionary era americans understood themselves as making a break with the “old world” and establishing a new civilization. and crucially, this new civilization rested on republican self-government, not “sovereignty.”

Everything is fine

That's the view of Trump's Junta in a nutshell.

Good.

CARTOON OF THE DAY 😕

(From @andertoon.bsky.social )

This immigrant worked his ass off his whole life and fathered three marines.

Trump dodged the draft and raped children.

Deport Trump.

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.

It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.

Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

He is a dog. I don’t care what happened to him.

Please help.

WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

$38 billion for 2026: Ramstein agrees on one of the largest defense support packages for Ukraine, says Fedorov

Of this amount, more than $2.5 billion will go to Ukrainian drones, more than $500 million to the PURL initiative, and about $2 billion to air defense.

Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.

Rhetoric matters:

🚫 Don’t say “detention center.”
✅ Say “concentration camp” or “death camp.”

🚫 Don’t say “federal agent” or “ICE officer.”
✅ Say “gestapo” or “domestic terrorist.”

🚫 Don’t say “MAGA.”
✅ Say “pedo-supporting fascist.”

🚫 Don’t say ”the administration.”
✅ Say “the regime.”

They think good is weak & evil is based, because they are wicked. ICE is doing wicked things & hiring wicked men to do them. It is difficult to look such a thing in the eye, but that is all there there is to them

The so-called "SAVE Act" is going to bring this kind of disenfranchisement and suppression of women voters to every state.

Indiana insisted my Mom also present her 1978 marriage license. And they demanded her 1973 divorce decree from my no good biological father.

These requirements meant travel to Chicago. And paying for both. My brother is an attorney and he had to get involved.

The women are explicitly targeted.

True story. This has already been happening in some Red states.

it happeened to my Mom.

After teaching for years in Valparaiso, IN, my Dad took teaching positions in another state for some time. When they eventually moved back and Mom needed a new ID, IN demanded not only her birth certificate...

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

The "fake news" is the completely uncritical repetition of Trump's FAKE jobs report.

Trump’s Own Adviser Just Admitted to the Scam at MAGA’s Core

As Trump trade official Peter Navarro reveals too much about the president’s terrible jobs record, economist Paul Krugman explains how this moment exposes the deeper fraudulence of the whole MAGA agenda.

completely pucking bonkers

We want them to stop using excessive force and violating people’s rights. Masks embolden the worst agents it gives them anonymity. Masks make it difficult to document who commits crimes and civil rights violations. They lead to more abuses. ICE wants no accountability. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Not one word of this is true.
