It’s a coup.
Members of Congress had close to 100 years of historical hindsight to answer the question, ”What would you do if another madman came along and threatened the safety of the world?” And the best they could come up with is nothing.

Way to go SCOTUS! Complete immunity so long as he claims ”national security“. Not only can he do whatever he wants, you’ve given cover for the GOP to do sweet fuck all about it.
This President is unhinged. Our colleagues across the aisle who control both chambers MUST take action. Silence and inaction are not an option.

If Jack Smith’s testimony is anything like his deposition, Jim Jordan will wither like a small coward in a ball in the corner while the republican side of the dais peppers Smith with questions about legally obtained cell phone records.
Did you catch that special coverage announcement at the end of the show?

On Thursday morning, former special counsel Jack Smith will be testifying to Congress. That evening Rachel and the gang will break down that testimony in extended special coverage from the long desk.

Letter from a Birmingham Jail resonates through history and applies to our current day. Platitudes will be made by ideological descendants of those the letter was addressed to. This years quote:

“We can never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was "legal"

From nationalizing voter suppression to flooding the streets with federal agents, the president and his allies are using all the tricks in the authoritarian playbook to tilt the midterms in their favor.

Completely normal appeasement of a toddler who in no way is pathetic and weak. He can put this next to the Purple Heart earned by a soldier in Walter Reed which trump received based on his long suffering through the Bowling Green Massacre, and of course the Battle of the Bone Spurs. What a legend.

When the president is “cleaning the place up”, it means he is engaging in ethnic cleansing.

It amazes me how swiftly the second amendment crowd would murder the first amendment in the name of a tyrant violating the 14th amendment because of their staunch Constitutionalist beliefs.

The problem is not immigration, it‘s not crime, it‘s not even that the Governor almost became VP. The problem is Hair Fewer has been looking to invoke the insurrection act since Jan 20, 2025 and he needs an excuse to do so. The solution was to kill a citizen.

PS-Somalia runs UN sec council, fwiw.
Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Well, at least it looks like he isn’t shaking as many hands.
Bless the Ford worker who called Donald Trump a pedophile protector to his face today, which made President Pedo Protector throw up his tiny middle finger.

Don’t let impeachment come as a surprise, the Democrats should be explaining daily why it should be an inevitability.

If there are still approximately 2m Epstein files yet to be released, how big is Pamela Jo’s desk?

Maybe this wasn’t about Somalian daycare centers after all.
ICE just broke a woman’s windows and yanked her out of her car at Park and 34 in Minneapolis. This is after a crowd gathered while ICE raided a home.

These are the same dopes that don’t want Puerto Rico or DC to become States because they know they’ll each get 2 more Democratic Senators.

If we don’t stop the Brownshirts, it will lead to extermination camps. When we tried to warn you that fascism was on the rise and coming, we were told to “stop being hyperbolic“.
Now that it’s here, we must address it before it gets worse. And it can get worse.

Never again is right now.

This guy is acting as though Greenland is in a Bergdof Goodman.
Trump: "We are going to do something on Greenland whether they like it or not because if we don't it, Russia or China will take over Greenland. If we don't do it the easy way we're gonna do it the hard way."

Well done, non-voters. You non-voted yourself into never voting again.
This disenfranchises the disabled, the elderly, the non-driver, the worker who can’t get off work, the urbanite, the rural, the indigenous, and if we had a public protection unit at the DOJ, I’m sure the list gets longer.

Is this a weird thing for Alan Dershowitz to offer up unsolicited in a deposition when asked if Bill Clinton had ever been to Epstein’s home?

He could have been convicted and removed by the Senate.
He could have been sent to prison by a NY judge.
He could have stood trial for stoking an insurrection.
He could have stood trial for stealing our secrets.
He could have been charged with obstruction of justice.
He could have lost the election.

After trump, we’re going to impeach the news outlets that failed us, right?

The Minneapolis shooting is vile.
What training did the ICE agent have?
Was this a “mental health issue”, if so,why was he an ICE agent?
If “the gun just went off”, then it is the guns after all.

We have ghouls running government, cosplaying cop porn heroes, and a president who doesn’t give a fuck.

Tell me you expected Senate republicans to give you time and cover without telling me you expected Senate republicans to give you time and cover.
JUST IN: DOJ says it has finished reviewing *less than 1%* of the Epstein Files for potential release.

Only 12,285 documents have been released while more than 2 million remain under review.
