Kudos to the European leaders, especially Zelenskyy, who are brilliant at working around our demented Putin puppet and promulgating the truth and having the resolve to declare democracy as humanity's ideal and our hope for the future.

Yup. It's really the perfect metaphor for all his crimes:
Abuse of process
Open corruption
Destruction of the notion of "public"
Bad taste
All during a government shutdown necessitated by tax cut for some of the zillionaires who paid for the ball room.

Trump has done many many many many many things that are worse than this, but I bet this is one of the things that turns people.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

It's about time for an active-duty General to stand up and publicly declare the illegality of Trump's plans and to call into question the President's mental competence.
this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)

Look at this video. Take a long, hard look at this scene. Masked federal agents, armed like soldiers on a battlefield, a dozen of em, taking down & detaining one immigrant. On our streets. Take a long, hard look at this. And then pass it on to others. This is Trumpism. This must not be who we are.👇
A man was just chased and arrested outside of the Broadview ICE facility in Chicago. When legal observers from the National Lawyers Guild asked why, an agent threatened to arrest them too.

Trump says he authorizes Hegseth to deploy the military to Portland, which he lyingly calls "war ravaged," and says he is authorizing "full force."

The Roberts doctrine that the President is "the most democratic and politically accountable official in government" flies in the face of the reality that impeachment is such an ineffective rein on executive overreach.
to me, the “column” is less a form than an opportunity (and a challenge). you’re telling me i have as much space as i’d like to make an argument about anything i’d like to an audience inclined to pay close attention? well let’s see if they’ll read 2000 words on democratic legitimacy. (gift link)
