Trump didn’t rule out pardoning people who had pleaded guilty, even when Welker asked him about those who had admitted assaulting police officers. “Because they had no choice,” Trump said.

Trump said that rioters on January 6 had "no choice" but to assault police officers

If any Democrat in the country publicly justified the assault of a police officer it is all you would ever hear about for years

My client @libradunn1.bsky.social speaks truth.

I prefer presidents who aren't wannabe authoritarians.

Also interesting is how people think over 20% of Americans make over $1M a year, and that 26% of people make over $500K (actual number is 1%)

We know what the problem was — we just don’t want to admit it because of what it says about the true nature of this country. Two women ran against Trump and lost. Both were over-run by massive misogyny and misinformation. Now add race to the mix. Trump played identity politics the whole time.

Many others are saying it, but it is becoming apparent that Bluesky is the new journalist's paradise.

The signal to noise ratio is extremely high. Far fewer trolls, bots, and hate speech/junk content to deal with.

I am finding major news tips every hour.

It bodes well for Bluesky's future.

Pam Bondi Disqualifications

1️⃣ Trump lawyer whose attorney-client privilege with him means she cannot be independent at DOJ.

2️⃣ Was an agent of a foreign government this decade—which government has repeatedly tried to bribe the Trumps.

3️⃣ Many ethics investigations, from Bribery to Animal Theft.

Correct

Delightful

WOW, pull up a seat and enjoy the sight of the always excellent Rep. Jasmine Crockett lighting up House Republicans about the real victims of oppression.

Hint: It's not Republican men.

House Republicans spent the past 2 years accomplishing NOTHING, the least productive Congress in history.

But they rose up in unison, not to pass something for the middle class, but to deny an elected trans woman use of the bathroom.

Hate is a powerful drug.

As usual, former President Bill Clinton explains clearly why Trump's picks are so awful: "He believes that his supporters have no confidence whatever in the federal government.

And Lord knows he's done everything he could to destroy that confidence."

Let's make something perfectly clear:
We STILL need to see that Matt Gaetz report.

It must be REALLY, really bad. 😳

If you've had your fill of the Matt Gaetz withdrawal from AG news, how about some dessert: a recently unearthed recording of RFK Jr calling MAGA “belligerent idiots” and “bootlickers.”

RFK Jr's got some explaining to do!

Never. I hated when his face would show up on my feed.

When so-called ‘religious people’ make the most depraved man alive the most powerful man in the world, it's easy to understand why people have stopped going to church…

Isn’t it?! 🤚
