I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Who Goes Nazi?, by Dorothy Thompson

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later.

What will poor Eric Adams do for work?
That’s nbody’s business but the Turks!

Troops. In an American city. Using full force.

Your now-regular reminder that Republican members of Congress are letting this happen.

National Defense Ministry Honors 11 Soldiers for Refusing Illegal Orders National Defense Ministry Honors 11 Soldiers for Refusing Illegal Orders Honored for rejecting illegal orders during martial law, Marine death probe

The South Korean Ministry of Defense has awarded medals of merit to 11 officers for disobeying direct orders of superiors during the martial law fiasco, orders that they deemed to be contrary to the constitution and endangerment to democracy.

Do you know how badly things have to be going in America for us to be owned this hard by the Dutch? The Dutch of all people

🚨NEW: "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" just dropped its first response to ABC, FCC chair, and Disney firing Jimmy Kimmel.

Trump ain't sleeping tonight. 🤣

This is a must-watch. 🔥

My body hurts and will probably hurt way more tomorrow.

But it’s a lot less pain than what our neighbors are enduring inside the Broadview ICE facility.

Let’s do this here in California @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

In her recommendation, Bagdasarian stated, "Any person over the age of six months without contraindication who has not received a dose of a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved or-authorized 2025-2026 COVID-19 vaccine may be considered to have an underlying condition that puts them at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 and is thus eligible to receive an age-appropriate dose."

I like this. Since under RFK Jr, Covid shots are now for people with underlying conditions that put them at risk, Michigan’s chief medical executive Dr. Natasha Bagdasarian states that not having the most recent Covid shot constitutes such an underlying condition.

Lol. This is "I support the 1st Amendment for speech I agree with" which means "I do not support the 1st Amendment or free speech."

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

I’m more used to saying this to people on the Left than people on the Right, but, “hate speech” is not an exception to the First Amendment. “Hate speech” is protected by the First Amendment unless it falls into a traditional established exception.

It appears we’re in the same neighborhood, so let me know if you want some help with the photo project.

The getaway car was wrecked on Delaware just off MLK.

Seems like they caught one of them at Hearst and MLK.

Now this is a journalist who deserves respect.

More surprising since it’s nearly impossible to find an open seat on a weekend night and often on weeknights as well.

Would 100% watch a sitcom in which Cuomo and Dershowitz end up roommates, Dershowitz is denied a pierogi every episode in exactly the same way, and Cuomo runs for successively lower-stakes office each week, only to lose again.

Rewatched ‘Casablanca’ tonight, for the first time with the kids. All-time great movie of course, but what struck me tonight: Barely a year into America’s involvement in the war and Hollywood knew what concentration camps were and how villains behaved.

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

I know you’re new to Congress, Mr. Fine, but we don’t call our colleagues terrorists here. It just makes you look idiotic. At a time when MN Democrats have been targeted for assassination by a right-wing extremist, your rhetoric is seriously dangerous. Apologize now.

That’s a much-needed laugh/cry.

It's a truly jarring split screen that Kristi Noem's goons attacking Sen Padilla happened at almost the exact same time as 16 Dem senators crossed lines to vote with the GOP to invoke cloture on the crypto bill, forfeiting any leverage.

Dems need to act like an opposition.
