, or they've finally come for me. US citizens, rendered to El Salvador prisons with no criminal convictions or due process first, simply for expressing political opposition to der Orange Fuhrer? Unthinkable until he admitted publicly today that he'd really like to do just that. 2 of 3

Apparently we now have different First Amendment rights for those who fundamentally disagree with US support for Israeli war crimes... so when you stop seeing my posts here, either I'm dead (much like Fred Sanford, I swear that sonofabitch is gonna' give me "the big one" one of these days), 1 of 3

Seen on Rachel Maddow tonight, a brilliant protest sign outside a Tesla dealership:

Can Ukraine stop Russia from allying with North Korea, Iran, and China? If not, then Russia cannot forbid Ukraine from allying with whom it chooses. That is a basic element of sovereignty.

Once upon a time Trump believed the stock market was an important bellwether of presidential success.
Here's S&P market performance during his presidency thus far (inauguration to today), compared to the same period under Biden, Obama, and Trump's first term.

Crypto-currency (and the related "meme coins" and "NFTs") is inevitably headed for a crash, as there is literally nothing backing the real asset value. At least tulip bulbs yielded flowers.

work with Jack Smith's office. Blacklisted from any dealings with the government and summarily revoking their mandatory (for much DC legal work) security clearances, these are acts not of a President of a democratic republic; they are acts of nothing less than a wannabe fascist dictator. (6 of 6)

Second, the unprecedented attacks on several big DC law firms that had the temerity to provide legal representation to the orange felon's political and/or legal foes. Perkins Coie for representing the HRC compaign and Covington & Burling for having lent several of its lawyers (5 of 6)
