Texas is close to not being a functioning democracy

It’s the hardest place to vote because Republicans have put impediments in place based on totally bogus vote fraud concerns - that they just make up

The courts have become complicit in this effort

What we’re seeing in Texas now is a disgrace

You love to see it!! #AbolishICE #AbolishDHS

FTR could reps on our side (non-fascists) stop asking Trump officials to “apologize” for their acts of fascism? Luckily they’re all too deep in to take that easy out but from Epstein’s teen/pre-teen survivors to peaceful protesters gunned down by their goonsquad, an apology is insulting & ludicrous.

This is why competent administrations w/carefully vetted strategies based on military and human intelligence work for months in advance to build the broadest, strongest coalitions possible—which takes negotiation, mutual respect, and shared goals. Trump did NONE of this. #TrumpsWar #ImpeachTrump

“[Dems] can go much harder = evergreen. Rs letting Trump be king don’t want an authorization vote otr.

“It's precisely bc Trump has no…articulated objectives for this war—and bc American officials privately admit his Iran claims are false—that he's launching it illegally w/o cong. authorization.”

Iran did interfere with US elections…to help Trump get elected. They didn’t want a competent, principled, democracy-focused administration. They sure got their wish in 2024.

Kudos to your graphic artist. I’m sure turnout will be huge! #AbolishICE #AbolishDHS #NoFascistUSA

“[Dems] can resolve to treat it as a scandal, rather than a misjudgment. Nobody asked for this & the admin did not build a case for it. Trump ordered the decapitation of the Iranian regime w/o a plan for the aftermath. He [was] reportedly unprepared for the scale of the Iranian response.” #Impeach

We are now a pariah nation, in just 14 short months. 😫
But bravo, UK— this is how we bring down Trump’s fascist regime.

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.

I feel awful for her, having gone through a deposition myself, but it is cathartic to see a politician having a normal, human & completely reasonable response to this monstrous, illegal, untethered, anti-social regime of fascists. TY @hillaryclinton.bsky.social. We're all done too! #NoFascistUSA

X post by Natasha Bertrand @NatashaBertrand "The imminent threat was that we knew that if Iran was attacked [nb: by Israel!], and we believed they would be attacked, that they would immediately come after us, and we were not going to sit, sit there and absorb a blow before we responded," Rubio told press on Capitol Hill Monday.

NOT defensive, as even the fucking Scty of State by mistake admitted. Maybe instead stop the attack that you said you knew was going to occur?

Ngl…TCM is gonna be hard (but boycott I will)

She and Joni Ernst should go on a “You’re all going to die anyway” tour and toss out out-of-date granola bars to the emaciated few who attend. #LetThemEatCacaTour

Why ‘Flooding the Zone’ Works for Trump - Dame Magazine Trump’s allies openly described a strategy to overwhelm the press with simultaneous crises. The structure of modern journalism makes it work

Brilliant article by @parkermolloy.com via @damemagazine.bsky.social. The antidote is the also brilliant @hcrichardson.bsky.social and her daily Letters from an American. If you can only read one thing a day to keep sane, her letter synthesizes what’s happening, not just what happened.

Hegseth is pathetic, of course, but the tragedy in this clip is the question itself. This is what happens when fascists sideline real reporters…and also a lesson of why real reporters should have spoken up as their colleagues were being humiliated or removed. #1AUnderAttack

We are living under the dumbest fucking dictator that has ever existed and I know that’s daunting and upsetting but let’s just take a little solace in that fact as we seek to overthrow these fascists.

Wow. #IllegalWar #ImpeachTrump
#WarPOTUS

So, so instructive to compare media response to Afghanistan withdrawal -- months of hysterical garment-rending & catastrophizing, relentless criticism of the admin -- with the response to an unprovoked, unmotivated, illegal war of aggression, ie, "some critics say maybe Trump should have reasons."

Thank you @pbsnews.org for clearly pointing out, in the lede, the illegality and immorality (not to mention the omnipresent hypocrisy) of the Trump immigration doctrine.

Easy action here, folks—and the points made by Indivisible are brilliantly articulated. Please, though, add your own comments at the end. #IllegalWar #ImpeachTrump

But all their family members, friends, acquaintances, and sentient human beings will now want to avenge their senseless deaths. It’s like this admin has never read a history book. (I know, I know.) #NoFascistUSA #IllegalWar

Great—as always—thread on Trump’s pretend war and its dangerous implications. @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social MUST forego their standard, knee jerk stand-with-Israel-no-matter-what and oppose this war of political convenience with everything they’ve got. #IllegalWar #NoFascistUSA

Murdered Iranian children, thus creating murderous, radicalized (and not unjustifiably so) Iranians. JFC #ImpeachTheMFer

All the pundits do not get it. Trump, Vance, Miller—ALL Repubs—do not care a whit about being hypocrites. They cannot be shamed or kowtowed w/that label. They relish being so powerful they can lie w/impunity. Attack on fiscal & human costs, weakened world position, and fascist (unpopular) policies.

You know that was sarcasm, right?
