I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Trump Calls for New Census, Sans Noncitizens, Based On ‘Presidential Election of 2024’ Trump Calls for New Census, Sans Noncitizens, Based On ‘Presidential Election of 2024’

Whatever his intention, Trump lacks the authority to order changes to the Census. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

🤔

The sloppiness of the cover-up here is astounding

Trump cares only about protecting himself and the perpetrators. That’s why they’ve ignored the survivors since the beginning.

Firing the BLS Commissioner — the wonk in charge of the statisticians who track economic reality — is an authoritarian four alarm fire.

It will also backfire: You can't bend economic reality, but you can break the trust of markets. And biased data yields worse policy.

Opinion | This was Thom Tillis’ moment. He did not meet it. The North Carolina senator has talked a lot about higher principles lately. And yet his vote to confirm Emil Bove demonstrates just how comfortable he still is taking the easy way out.

Tillis caved. Emil Bove’s confirmation is Trump’s fortress move in plain sight...loyalty over law, immunity over justice. Every GOP ‘yes’ vote is a brick in the wall against accountability.

"This is a nail in the coffin." Fmr. FBI General Counsel Andrew Weissman describes what Emil Bove's confirmation to the Third Circuit says about the United States' system of checks and balances. "The amount of proof as to why he is unfit is sort of overwhelming."

YouTube video by Senator Chris Van Hollen Emil Bove confirmation is a direct assault on the integrity of our justice system

The confirmation of Emil Bove to the 3rd Circuit is a direct assault on the integrity of our justice system.

A former Trump lawyer, Bove ordered a 15-year DOJ veteran to lie to a federal judge — then helped fire him for refusing.

Now he’s a judge. Corruption in action.

‘First Class Loser!’ Dropkick Murphys Play Brutal Montage of Trump and Epstein During Concert The Dropkick Murphys played a series of clips showing President Donald Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffery Epstein together during a performance of their song "First Class Loser" on Sunday.

This is the way.

Dropkick Murphys played Trump/Epstein clips during their song “First Class Loser” on Sunday.

“This next song is dedicated to a guy who wears orange makeup, shits his pants in his diapers, rapes women, touches kids. It’s called ‘First Class Loser’!”

Bove is going to be the new Clarence Thomas, but worse (until he gets elevated): A petulant, vindictive asshole who is going to use the bench to make up for his moral emptiness and deep sense of inadequacy

Roy Cooper raises $3.4 million in first 24 hours of his Senate candidacy The former North Carolina governor set a fundraising record with his day-one haul for his Senate campaign.

The Two-Pronged Attack on a Muslim Judicial Nominee How the smearing of Adeel Mangi became a bipartisan exercise.

This is why the Bove seat was vacant, and there’s a real throughline from the forces that defeated the previous Democratic nominee to where we are today.

the republican party is a criminal conspiracy against the american republic

Bove himself is a literal criminal. A man whose short time in the public eye is defined by his open contempt for the law and those responsible for enforcing it. And the only reason he was nominated is because of his slavish devotion to the president’s most lawless impulses.

📌Today alone, Republicans confirmed a complete slime ball and crook, Emil Bove, to a lifetime appointment on the court, opened the door to corporate pollution of our air and water, and worked tirelessly to shield pedophiles.
We are being governed by completely hideous people.

Better work on the country giving us a 2/3 senate majority.

Dems should vow to impeach Bove and any nominee who did not testify truthfully under oath

There’s a brand of political thinker (call them “normie optimists”) that reflexively treats this all as ephemeral.

“Just wait for the midterms. Focus on the right messaging and win those swing districts.”

I just want to stare at them and say “Emil Bove has been confirmed to a lifetime judgeship.”

The Cowardice of Senate Democrats Made Emil Bove’s Confirmation Possible Senate Democrats could have confirmed Biden nominee Adeel Mangi to the Third Circuit last year. They caved to a disgraceful right-wing smear campaign instead.

Emil Bove's confirmation was only possible because Democrats caved to a vile right-wing smear campaign of Adeel Mangi, who would have been the first Muslim appeals court judge, when Biden nominated him for the same seat last year. Absolutely disgraceful. Bove's confirmation is on them, too.

Perfect!

I am available for the Supreme Court.

Things you will learn from this video:
1. Scotland hates Trump
2. Some new, colorful language.
3. Insults sound better with a Scottish accent.

This is perfect.

I have nothing to add. Utterly true!
