I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.
Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

You can't use the right's own words to tarnish them but they can just make up whatever they want and the media will spread it far and wide.

Until this is fixed, nothing else will be.

This is simply untenable. There is no way forward with media and political classes captured by the right. Every time someone commits a crime you have to pray it's not an undesirable or it's purge time, then when it turns out to be themselves again they just shrug and wait for the next one.

this dc situation looks pretty horrible. i wish i had more to say except that autocracy is always mundane and petty and vicious and encourages you to look away and be safe. and you can live quite normally under it until you're a direct target

“The president cut your health care so he could build himself a golden ballroom” is a pretty easy message to sell

This past week, the 79-year-old president announced he’s ended six wars (some that have been going on for centuries), asserted that windmills drive whales insane, called for Beyoncé to be prosecuted, claimed Obama committed treason and complained a convicted pedophile “stole” teenage girls from him.

Imagine being commander-in-chief of the world’s largest military and still being afraid of Rosie O’Donnell.

“The contrast between the protests and the military parade suggested an important shift in political culture. The momentum and the joy, as well as the American flags, were on the side of those protesting Trump’s growing authoritarianism.” — @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Are we really fucking doing this.

Had nothing happened to Senator Padilla at all, what she was describing is a federal takeover of a major city by military force with no specified end-date, with no legal authority. Do not let the fascists talk their way out of that.

This is the most straightforward thing they've said so far. They're using the military to "liberate" Los Angeles from its mayor and governor.
Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city."

Sen. Alex Padilla is then forcibly removed!

Don’t let the horror of the assault on Padilla cause you to miss out on the fact that Noem calls for the overthrow of the local govt by military force.

Important thing to beat people over the head with: Trump has turned American cities into warzones and for fucking what? Prices are way up, jobs will be way down, the dollar is worth less, and now the highway is blocked off by cops. Maybe the Great Mythical Immigrant wasn’t the problem after all.

It’s so fascinating to watch. How one man can sow such destruction. How one very bad, stupid, ignorant, cruel, dishonest, and psychopathic man can/will ruin and destroy so many lives.

But here’s the thing. None of this is a surprise. Every single voter knew exactly who he was.

Every day, we should all be asking the same questions of our political representatives and political reporters:

Has the president been removed from office yet because of his obviously broken brain? No? Why not?

Given the likely economic + political landscape of the 2026 midterms, we could flip state leg seats (& possibly chambers) all across the country IF we run great candidates, even in places that might seem like longshots. @runforsomething.net would love to help you run. runforwhat.net to get started.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

Trump is surrendering America. Trump is the opposite of strong.

He is a tiny, weak, small, scared, trembling, sissy, husk of a man.

There is nothing manly about his fat, sweaty, smelly, gross, makeup'ed self

An absolute joke
