Ohhhhhhhh. Yeah that makes a lot more sense, @stephruhle.bsky.social
Stephanie Ruhle: This bridge will take toll money away from another bridge that connects Michigan and Canada, and that bridge is owned by a big Trump donor who, on Monday, had a meeting with Howard. Lutnick. Immediately following that meeting, poof, we no longer want this new bridge.

This is concerning, that a rep feels they must post this. A lot in our coalition has felt the same way and worried about it, but didn’t think we’d be here publicly.

Because DHS paramilitaries are masked, heavily armed, poorly trained, and have been terrorizing Americans for months. Because Americans don't want to vote at gunpoint. #holdfast

I always fly hundred of miles to private islands to lunch with the total strangers who own them. I mean, who doesn't? 🤷
The most batshit headline of the last 24 hours and these days that is *really* saying something

#TheEpsteinClass - a brilliant observation by Sen Ossoff - that will definitely be catching on & heard everywhere! Hearing it already on the morning shows today.
Turns out Jon Ossoff is a brilliant orator - and is either a great speech writer or has great speech writers!
The Epstein Class love KR!

Wild times we're in, but we all knew that
If a brown singer at a halftime show offends you enough to protest but white men raping young girls doesn’t, then it isn’t family values you defend it’s white supremacy and sexual abuse.

I am also going to win, because I'm never going to wake up in the morning, stare into the empty eyes of the thing in the mirror, and realise I traded my soul and my children's world to make a small profit off slop.

Not sure how to read this as anything other than Trump's handpicked Director of National Intelligence betraying the United States and doing so to protect him from revelation of the fact that his regime is secretly working with a hostile foreign intelligence agency
NSA detected phone call between foreign intelligence and a person close to Trump
Whistleblower says that Tulsi Gabbard blocked agency from sharing report and delivered it to White House chief of staff

I'll accept nothing less than his resignation, or his excommunicado by Congress. Even then, he'll still be a racist fascist, but I won't have to hear about the latest immoral act of a US f-ing president. Ffs, whatever happened to the expectation of honour, trust, and integrity in that office?
Trump removed his post that included a racist video portraying former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as apes. Simply deleting it is not enough a public apology is warranted.

The fact the Republican controlled Congress allows this sh:t show to continue to spew excrement tells the entire world all we need to know about their values and their integrity. _That_ is why Carney is focused on other markets. Integrity matters. #ElbowsUp 🇨🇦

Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power.
They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.
Q: You're a constitutional lawyer. Can you detail the 4th Amendment protections someone has if ICE approaches their home w/an administrative warrant?
MIKE JOHNSON: When ICE goes to execute a warrant, it's issued by an immigration judge, & that is a sufficient legal authority to go apprehend someone

This is the authoritarian tell:
If a judge rules against your preferred outcome, declare the judge illegitimate.
If that mindset takes hold, courts stop being guardrails and become targets.
Democracy cannot survive a government that believes the law only counts when it wins.

One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office.
Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.
