A sitting president shouting that people should be jailed for telling the military to follow the law.

Kavanaugh stop. Smashed the kid’s car windows and arrested him. He told them he was a U.S. citizen. The officer replied “I don’t care.”

A video from inside a Border Patrol vehicle shows agents chasing a US citizen for filming them. The citizen refused to get out when they illegally ordered him to stop. The agents say: "This is great." "This is fun." "He's going to get shot."

Trump’s “Quiet, piggy” remark joins a preponderance of evidence suggesting “how limited a proportion of men actually see women as equal human beings,” @sophiegilbert.bsky.social argues.

Q: Is it REASONABLE to Fear

Trump is giving ILLEGAL ORDERS, or Not?

The Answer is YES!

Of Course HE Is"

The correct answer to MAGA outrage over the Dem video is this: Are you effing kidding me? Of course it's reasonable to warn that Trump might be giving illegal orders.

The evidence is strong that he actually is giving illegal orders! I went through that evidence here:

Is Trump Giving Illegal Orders? Dems Just Blew That Question Wide Open
From the boat bombings to deportations to prosecutions, the evidence mounts. And the speaker of the House could get to the bottom of it if he wanted to. Yeah, right.

Huge victory for Zohran Mamdani in the Oval Office. He stuck to his guns, spoke about affordability, proudly declared himself a Democratic Socialist, condemned genocide in Gaza, did not back down from calling Trump a “fascist,” and still got Trump to praise him, undermining months of GOP attacks.

This is a wild thing for someone who calls themselves an intellectual to say with a straight face to the New York Times. This is not a historical account based on an understanding of the history--this is just pure far right, Christian Nationalist propaganda/conspiracy theory ca. 1962-1980s.

The Epstein files aren’t getting spun into a “Democratic hoax.” Nobody’s buying it. Trump is at minus 39 approval on his handling of the files, and even Republicans are split.

The Republican Party is trying to make excuses. They are failing.

There’s an even bigger problem with Halligan’s “highly prejudicial” misstatements of fundamental tenets of criminal law which suggested that grand jurors did not have to base a finding of probable cause on the actual evidence presented to him. That’s not harmless error 😬
People really should be prepared that the Comey case goes forward with a finding that the indictment fuck-up was harmless error.

So long as the operative counts that were indicted had identical language there's a decent chance some court, whether trial, appeal or SCOTUS finds it was harmless

Of all the terrible things Roberts has done, this was the most shocking stat: "the right-wing majority has used the shadow docket to uphold Trump’s actions roughly 90 percent of the time, repeatedly bailing him out of any obligation to follow the law"
There’s one person squarely to blame for Trump’s corruption, authoritarianism & assault on democracy: John Roberts. He’s enabled so much of Trump’s lawlessness while somehow escaping accountability for it
