Yes they are. Next question?
When I wrote this in 2017, Trump goons desperately tried to get me fired and shut me up, scrambling to cover their collusion with Putin. Now they openly support the murderous dictator.

"Trump team collusion with Russia? Ukraine connection may hold key."

Trump team collusion with Russia? Ukraine connection may hold key.
Robert Mueller will find interesting evidence in the shifting stories of just how pro-Russia tweaks to the GOP platform came about.

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

BREAKING: Judge in our Treasury case vs. DOGE just raised profound "concerns about constitutionality of DOGE"!

She follows Judge Chutkan who also raised questions last week

We @sddaction.bsky.social will be in Md. Fed. Ct. Friday in our appointments clause case to prove DOGE is unconstitutional

He is admitting that he doesn’t want lawyers to stop him from breaking the law. No one would stop him from issuing lawful orders, so this has to be about unlawful ones.
Hegseth says firing of top military lawyers was about making sure "they don't exist to be roadblocks to anything that happens."

MAGA is big mad that there’s a petition going to revoke Elon Musk’s citizenship in Canada that has over a 116k signatures.

The U.S. should have deported him when we had the chance.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

“I am a king and my will is law” isn’t a clever distraction from what he’s doing, it’s the central underlying justification for everything he’s doing.
Dear media:

Please do not waste time hyperventilating about this dumb comment.

It’s intended to be a distraction from all of the damaging actions he’s taking.

Focus on those.

Medicaid enrollment is higher than Medicare, and the states cannot support it without fed dollars, because the states cannot tax their residents at rates anywhere near federal income tax rates.

This maliciously punishes the states for a structural fact: health insurance is admin'd at state level.
🚨Senator Tammy Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed House budget resolution & paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

Medicaid affects 70M+ Americans. THIS WOULD BE DEVASTATING!🚨

He also needs Europe to back down on political demands and step up with troop commitments, whereas Putin needs Europe to back down on both.

Even under Trump's morally vacant parameters for a US-Russia deal, it's hard to see them reaching a mutually acceptable one, as it's not a US-Russia conflict.
Trump is losing his rag because Zelensky isn't backing down. He needs Zelensky to back down. So support Zelensky.

The U.S Civil War was the bloodiest in American history. Southern states rebelled against the government and seceded from the Union over the right to own and the expansion of slavery. As many as 850,000 Americans were killed.

Reminder: The soldiers and generals of the Confederacy were not patriots.
