To anyone who thinks it’s an “exaggeration” that the rule of law is in danger…
U.S. Senator Mark Kelly is being investigated for the “crime” of telling people not to commit crimes.
We’ve fallen far.

Hey MAGA! Just because someone is a woman or a racial or sexual minority doesn’t mean they’re a DEI hire. Yes, there are unqualified people being appointed to government positions in the Trump administration, but they are mostly unqualified, straight white male idiots.

Wyden Blasts Kristi Noem for Abusing Subpoena Power to Unmask ICE Watcher
“DHS apparently is trying to expose an individual’s identity in order to chill criticism of the Trump Administration’s immigration policies.”

The Constitution is perfectly well designed to handle a corrupt president—but the framers didn’t imagine that Congress would be complicit. The problem is that our system cannot handle a corrupt party.

Call me a luddite but I kind of prefer the old version of the Devil who used to put a murrain on crops and command his demon dogs to terrorise church congregations to the new one who insists on having an app for everything and gets rich by designing clever ways of capitalising on people's fatigue.

If joking about Charlie Kirk is considered “violent rhetoric,” how do we describe open calls to hang members of Congress?

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.
UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.
Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The bigger question is WHY?
You can say craven, cruelty is the point, whatever you want — but there’s a story yet to come to light that explains their deep, urgent panic to not pay these funds. The logical answer is “they already spent it somewhere else”. Where?

President Trump is dismantling democracy—one piece at a time.
Here’s a roundup of what he’s done since returning to the White House. It paints a damning picture. 🧵

Trump's tariffs are hurting us in two ways:
First, the obvious: Higher costs → either lower profits or higher prices.
Second, more subtle (perhaps bigger): We’ve signaled we’re an unreliable partner, so allies are reorganizing supply chains to avoid us. That's hard to unwind.
