It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

US Justice Department stumbles in retribution campaign against Trump foes Lindsey Halligan, a close ally of President Donald Trump, went before a grand jury in late September seeking criminal charges against a high-profile target: former FBI Director James Comey.

"Qualified prosecutors at the Justice Department 'who understand, know and care about the rules are showing themselves unwilling' to carry out Trump's demands," our own @kristyparker.bsky.social told @reuters.com

I’m rooting for zero!

lmao

No, it’s not ok to follow unlawful orders.

Correct answer.

“And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything... Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything."

Remember: the House is only forcing this Epstein Files vote because Donald Trump has been dodging this for months. He could release the files any time he wants, no vote needed.

Let’s just wait and see what obstruction he tries next to hide his connections to this creepy pedophile.

Maybe they should listen to her?

So why is Harvard allowing Larry Summers to continue teaching?

Trump could bring the Epstein files to his next press gaggle. But he’s not going to do that.

Admitting that you interviewed a convicted felon and known liar without gathering and familiarizing yourself with critical evidence isn’t exactly a flex.

“Achieve”? Maybe the Ivy League has a different definition of that than the one I learned. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hundreds of thousands of people, dead because of a decision made by the world's richest man

This week was the Trump regime taking loss after loss after loss. Just a steady stream of humiliation.

I don't have anything to add, I just wanted to remind you.

No, there is not. Do better @economist.com

I love the lighthearted excitement about maybe having a tornado.

Nothing tendentious in this framing!

And—apologies for saying this for 627th time—we see the reporter's byline. But we have no idea who decided to present the piece this way, wrote the headlline and subhed, promoted it through 'social sell.'

Please read!

At least Cam has been to a Super Bowl.

And if it IS a legitimate case, Trump has jeopardized it with his public targeting of Bolton and other inappropriate conduct toward DOJ. That’s not the way to keep Americans safe.

“There’s absolutely no basis for the president to threaten to put the governor of a state or any other American in jail for simply resisting one of his policies.” @kristyparker.bsky.social joined @gregsargent.bsky.social to discuss Trump’s mounting prosecutions against his critics. Listen here ⬇️

New York Attorney General Letitia James’s indictment is a clear example of political retaliation by the Trump administration.

Read our analysis: protectdemocracy.org/work/retalia...

Not only is this rude, inappropriate, partisan, costly, and illegal, it reveals the fundamentally anti-American idiocy of this administration’s policy of handing over to China the most important economic sector of the 21st century.

Thanks to Greg for having me on to talk about Trump’s weaponization of DOJ and who can thwart it.
