When a government starts targeting former intelligence officials, law enforcement leaders, and anyone who once investigated or criticized those in power, it’s not just a red flag, it’s a page straight from the authoritarian playbook.

Threads is a cesspool right now if people really hoping that the Marines will go in and start cracking heads and shooting.

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there.

What an unbelievable asshole.

Federal officers entered Rep. Jerry Nadler’s office in Lower Manhattan on Wednesday and handcuffed and briefly detained one of his aides. The confrontation happened shortly after the aide observed federal agents detaining migrants in a public hallway outside an immigration courtroom.

Trump is now saying he wants to rename veterans day. One name that's safe is the White House because white is good enough for him.

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

What trumpmusk is doing to social security is purely malicious. They have no intention to make it better.

We have now achieved "Chile under Pinochet" levels of disappearing people. News of a gay man escaping persecution in Venezuela now sent to the gulag in El Salvador. They didn't tell his Immigration lawyers, they didn't take him to his scheduled court appearance, they just took him.

Although the Trump people appeared to cave to pressure to not cut off phone service for the SSA they are now circulating a memo which would Institute onerous requirements to use phone service which would be functionally the same as cutting it off for many people. Spread the word.

There are people who keep saying "they're hiding the cure for cancer" who are cheering on the cancelation of hundreds of millions of dollars in research grants and the gutting of the VA. Some of that money has been working on cures for different cancers.

Kamala Harris has received the Chairman's award from the NAACP. Now Trump is going to be jealous and wonder why he didn't get it.

The list of conflicts of interest of Elon Musk is growing longer everyday. While Trump is off playing golf musk is gutting the agencies that have been riding herd on his businesses. With each coming day he is freer to do whatever the hell he wants.
