Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Fake emergencies to justify crackdowns-not very original

The military isn’t being employed to carry out an immigration policy.

The immigration policy, and especially the way the administration is choosing to carry it out, is an excuse to call out the military.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if there is NEW evidence that would change a determination *already made by a judge*, the government needs to present it in that court and get the determination changed. Re-litigating a judge's determination based on old evidence on TV isn't due process

Wait no!

16 ounces of GT Trilogy Kombucha - 50 calories, 12g of sugar, probiotics, organic juice & ginger.

Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials. Imagine if I had said to law firms that you will not be allowed into government buildings.

It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me

Pitch-perfect response to Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin from @georgetownlaw.bsky.social Dean Bill Treanor.

It’s always a privilege and honor to be part of the GULC community (and to be Bill’s colleague), but *especially* today.

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT?

Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

21 DOGE staffers resign, saying they won't help 'dismantle' public services Twenty-one members of the United States DOGE Service have resigned, they said in an anonymous letter, citing DOGE's ongoing work dramatically reshaping the federal government.

Even the people working at DOGE say it is a lawless nightmare for America. In fact, they know it better than anyone.

Thanks to these true public servants who won’t stand for such a dangerous betrayal of the American people.

It took ten years, but the NYT finally got there

The ABA supports the rule of law It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accor...

“No American can be proud of a govt that carries out change in this way. Neither can these actions be rationalized by discussion of past grievances or appeals to efficiency. Everything can be more efficient, but adherence to the rule of law is paramount” www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.

I mean, this is breathtakingly corrupt, and it's probably only the fourth-most-corrupt story to emerge over the last 6 hours.

Phoenix historian reaches daily running streak of 45 years After entering a challenge with a friend to run or work out every day, Arizona historian Steve Schumacher ended up with a 45-year habit.

The City of Phoenix's official historian Steve Schumacher recently reached a daily running streak of 45 years. In addition to numerous races (Marathons etc.), Steve has run at least 30 minutes every single day without a single day off! 🏃🏼‍♂️

America wouldn’t be America without immigrants!

Trump posted his lie about “turning on the water” at 11:12 PM last night and CA responded with the facts less than two hours later.

Can most other Democrats PLEASE learn from this? At SOME POINT?

It isn’t 1996. Calling a press conference days later is USELESS. Rapid react!

Trump wiped January 6 convicts’ records clean. Now his DOJ is wiping evidence of rioters’ crimes from the internet | CNN Politics As President Donald Trump this week sought to rewrite the history of his supporters’ attack on the US Capitol, a database detailing the vast array of criminal charges and successful convictions of Jan...

🚨🚨As I predicted, Trump’s DOJ is trying to rewrite history by erasing the archive of cases of January 6th participants🚨🚨

Can someone get this info from the internet archive and repost it all?

1. Per settled con law doctrine, state officials can’t be commandeered into enforcing federal law.

2. Noted liberal squish Antonin Scalia wrote one of the two major opinions setting out the commandeering doctrine.

3. The memo doesn’t mention this, because apparently federalism is for losers now.

Anyone who says there wasn’t enough water in the reservoirs to fight the California wildfires NEEDS to watch this & help stop misinformation. Can we please get back to uniting as a country when there are catastrophic disasters? Lying only disrupts efforts to help people in need.

Trump Sees the U.S. as a ‘Disaster.’ The Numbers Tell a Different Story. (Gift Article) President Biden is bequeathing his successor a nation that by many measures is in good shape, even if voters remain unconvinced.

“The America that Trump will inherit from President Biden… is actually in better shape than that bequeathed to any newly elected president since George W. Bush came into office in 2001.”

WATCH: Daniel Dale fact-checks Trump’s many lies about the fires

Looks like there is only one person interested in suppressing the truth, and it’s not the Jan 6 committee

“Trump’s demand that Smith’s report be suppressed is a useful reminder that he really hates truthful accounts of January 6th, even if—especially if—they are based on testimony under oath from many different individuals, including many who worked for him.“

Defending The Truth About Jan 6th We must be relentless and never ceasing to fight the lies

Jan 6th was a violent attack on our country, not a “day of love.” The truth is well documented, witnessed by dozens of GOP officials, it’s up to us to defend it against the relentless lies. My latest:
