As a rule thumb, always expect Trump to make the worst possible decision with the worst possible outcomes and you will never go wrong in your predictions.

That’s my kid’s school, the playground soil testing was so toxic after the 2020 ICE protests we had to clear it out and start fresh before kids could go outside. Here we go again. There is also an affordable housing bldg kitty corner to ICE being poisoned/terrorized by them.

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean…

Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

The tariff policy changes every ten minutes. What a joke.

It’s nuclear grade incompetence that would be laughable except they’re ruining people’s lives for sport. Just shameful.

my offer to america: we bring woke back

The White House after Nintendo announces that Trump made the Switch 2 $650 in the US:

Deeply jealous.

These are the tariffs of the Republican Party-not just Trump. Congress voted to give Trump the authority to do this, & can vote to repeal them at any time. But they won’t, even though many know this will be a disaster, because they are afraid of Trump. So now they own this mess.

I find it outrageous as well.

It was always more smoke and mirrors than reality -- corporations thriving, regular folks not so much -- but now the smoke has gone up in a puff. The mirrors have all cracked.

Yes, please. Would watch and donate. I’ll take all the @amberruffin.bsky.social I can get, especially when her and Jenny are picking on Seth.💖

“boys feel isolated and lonely as they grow up”
the media and political classes discuss this serious problem very seriously

“trans kids feel isolated and lonely as they grow up”
the media and political classes unite in fury because trans kids shouldn’t be allowed to grow up at all

I would prefer zero association between the Vice President and the word “seed” but alas

they’re kidnapping people in plain sight and we’re just supposed to all keep functioning like normal?

capitalism really has us in a blender

Picture of Rep. Ted Lieu speaking at a press conference with text overlayed. Text is from the title of an article by The Hill: “Top House Democrat calls for Hegseth to resign: ‘Endangered lives of American troops’”

Hegseth has got to go.

Could literally be the response to everything the regime says for perpetuity and would never be wrong.

Trump’s Gestapo needs five people to arrest an itty-bitty female college student

I didn’t see any identifying markers/badges

All of the agents cover their faces so we can’t find out who they are

In other countries, they would call this “the secret police”

I don't care what side of the Israel-Palestine conflict your sympathies lie on, snatching up people with a valid student visa for the crime of writing an OpEd is naked fascism and if you don't oppose this you are a threat to this country's most basic values

"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

Heads must roll. This is one of the dumbest security breaches in history, and it suggests a larger pattern of potentially criminal behavior that puts Americans at risk.

🚨🚨Gross incompetence. The Trump admin accidentally texted a journalist our war plans.

This proves what we always knew: Hegseth was never qualified to be SecDef—now his recklessness is putting Troops' lives at risk.

This is deadly serious.

Adding Jeffrey Goldberg to the chat is good because then there’s one person who actually cares about national security

There's mass confusion or willful revision of how to amass broad enough coalition to defeat fascist threat. Aka "big tent" or strange bedfellows strategy and what has actually worked in the past & in other places. Salivating centrist, shocker, say it's - moderate & sell out "controversial" issues.🧵
