The name "Alligator Alcatraz" reminds us that America is currently run by adults who are like malicious, giggling children using magnifying glasses to burn ants.

This is not in the bill. Just a total lie.

You're seeing America kamikaze itself into a brick wall.

It didn't have to be this way.

But greed and racism, our two sins, will be our downfall.

Too many people still with their hands in the sand.

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care.

They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Watch what they do, not what they say.

📌The Cabinet of the United States of America is a collection of the worst, most incompetent morons in history, and we are supposed to just suffer through it as if it was just another cloudy day.

Phang: It’s time for federal judges to acknowledge that they have lifetime appointments—and that should give them the courage to uphold the rule of law, but also to put some damn teeth into the court orders they’re issuing.

it’s time that we start seeing action from the judiciary.

Grow some balls

Reminder.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

How a Judge Tells a President to F**k Off I read a lot of court documents, and I like to highlight some from time to time that really encapsulate the moment we find ourselves in. The latest from the 4th Circuit does it perfectly.

NEW: I've read a lot of court documents in my time, but this is one of my new favorites. How a Judge tells a President to F**k Off. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/how-a-judg...

Kilmer Abrego Garcia was “accidentally deported” to El Salvador, and is being locked behind bars in a hell-hole prison.

This is the abhorrent result of the Trump regime’s refusal to ensure due process. In America, Garcia was violently stripped of his fundamental rights.

By order…

Read this carefully. The DOJ's argument here is that if somebody grabs literally any person and tells a foreign govt to throw them in prison, there's nothing a court can do to get them back once they've been handed off.

This isn't an Alien Enemies Act argument. It has fuck all to do with aliens.

I’m going to take this a step further: If you vote no on cloture, but do not publicly call for Schumer’s resignation, sit down until you have something worthwhile to say.

it really is something that almost a century later, oligarchs and economic royalists still see social security as an affront that must be destroyed

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Correct. This is a President of the United States declaring himself a dictator.

And instead of Americans understanding that we’re now under imminent threat of martial law and tyranny, we’ll get a month of think pieces about what the President of the United States meant by his UNAMBIGUOUS statement.

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC
1/31: Crash in Philly
2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle
2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska
2/10: Crash in Scottsdale
2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego
2/16: Crash in Covington, GA

7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

The best one yet 😄😄

Theme song for the entire presidency.

#gop

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

in what meaningful way can we say that the constitution is in effect when an unelected and unaccountable billionaire is wielding state power to unilaterally cancel congressional appropriations?

Egg prices are surging, gas prices are up, and planes are crashing on a near-daily basis.

And this is what the White House is focused on.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Want to see advertisers lose MILLIONS this Sunday? A record-setting low for viewers during the Super Bowl would do that.

Money talks and bullshit walks.

Donald Trump & Musk, and the blueprint of Project 2025 are stripping our rights under the guise of "progress." Are we going to let him dictate our future?

We must create pain for those in the position to influence US R Represenatives the most. We start this Sunday, by Boycotting the Super Bowl.

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
