this is the most successful a CIA officer has been at toppling a government in years.

You’re not proposing marriage to a politician when you cast a vote for them. You’re hiring them for a job.

We're calling him Diarrhea Don. He's owning the libs so hard with this, it's brilliant. Everyone talking about the president's uncontrollable bowels, how manly and cool his uncontrollably explosive shits are.

Reading this is gut-wrenching. It's not enough to be furious with the US leaders who have decided to let these children die. Please donate to relief organizations if you can. The World Food Program (www.wfpusa.org) is one such organization.

Liberals say that recent Supreme Court ruling have given the executive branch too much power. But they’re wrong, because the rulings only apply to Trump and will all be reversed when there’s a Democratic president.

I really enjoyed reading Ezra Klein the policy blogger. (So, in the 2000s and early 2010s.) Ezra Klein the political strategist has terrible, losing instincts for this moment. I wish he would return to a focus on policy, but maybe it's just not even worth thinking about policy right now. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

It's just the complete rejection of "conservatism" as a philosophy that approaches changes to the status quo with humility.

I was reliably told celebrating political violence was cause for government reprisal and private sector termination.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say β€œwe’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

The Free Speech President has now pulled two of the three major late night hosts off the air through threats and intimidation because of their jokes. Obviously I’m behind Jimmy Kimmel 100% in the face of this fascist garbage. Speech against this admin isn’t just being chilled, they’re freezing it.

Quick point. Trump cannot silence you, period. He doesn’t have the means or the tools, and if he did he would be too weak to use them. This is a bluff.

It only works if you let it.

I mostly agree, but will admit to hoping that the murderer's politics aren't easy to use by the administration to seize more power.

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

Chief justice allows Trump to fire a Democratic FTC commissioner for now The ruling comes after an appeals court last week found that Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter could be reinstated to her job because the president had fired her β€œwithout cause.”

This Trump-packed Supreme Court is ramping up its reckless practice of providing ZERO rationale for striking down orders from appellate courts that rein in lawless acts by the Trump Admin.

Calling this β€˜temporary’ doesn’t change the reality: they are enabling authoritarianism.

I hope everyone will forgive the bluntness of my language, but it seems like bluntness is warranted: it now seems pretty clear that the president raped children or at least knew about and actively facilitated the rape of children.

I think it is time we stopped using coded language to say that.

it’s great too that when district courts follow the law as written, one of the chuds on the Supreme Court pops up to scold them for not treating trump like a very special boy

I mean what on earth are district court judges supposed to do at this point other than get the message from SCOTUS to let Trump do whatever he wants to no matter what the law says.

🚨NEW: Reversing *generations* of practice, the Board of Immigration Appeals gives ICE exactly what it demanded, ruling that any undocumented immigrant who entered illegally is categorically ineligible for release from detention on bond β€” expanding mandatory detention by millions of people.

The media's basic assumption that crimes only count if they happen in secret has been Trump's saving grace throughout his two terms.

He keeps blabbing about them -- here, he's posting a video of a targeted assassination of civilians -- but because he's so brazen they assume it's no big deal.

It’s not just that the President of the United States posted a video of eleven people being murdered in international waters it’s that the President of the United States ordered the murder of eleven people in international waters so he could post a video of it.

Drug trafficking is not a capital crime; it doesn’t carry a death sentence. I genuinely cannot think of anything under U.S. law that would permit premeditated government assassination of people suspected of drug trafficking.
