When we take our government and country back from the fascists, every single one of these thugs must answer, in court, for the crimes they are currently committing. Hold them all accountable.
Dipshit is smashing out a car window with his gun, barrel first. Just rogue, cowboy stiff.
There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for “obstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.

"Unless Congress acts, the presidency will acquire a second, hidden budget: slush funds drawn from corporations and foreign governments with no external oversight. The power of the purse anchors Congress’s independence, keeping the legislature from becoming a spectator to executive power."
President Trump is building a “shadow budget” outside of Congressional control. @scott-levy.bsky.social explains why it is unlawful and how Congress should respond:

This has been Trump's superpower since 2016, and the secret to his success:
♦️He doesn't hide his crimes: He boasts of them.
♦️His case: Everybody does these things-- I'm the only one being honest about it.
Effective, but false:
♦️Many are corrupt, many are abusers. But he's in a league all his own.

"The message is not that Trump is innocent, it's that *everyone is guilty.* Everyone assaults women, cheats on their taxes, uses public office for private gain. Propriety and following the rules? That stuff is for suckers. In a world of grift and graft, the most corrupt man should be king."

Love this phrase: “the grift, the graft, and the gruffety-gruff” - when they financially ruin everyday Americans who buy the products and services their billionaire buddies sell, the cycle grinds to a halt.
"Trump and Vance imagine that they can grift endlessly. They do not understand that their grift depends upon the honest labor and decent convictions of millions of Americans. Were there not Americans who actually worked, there would be nothing and no one to grift."

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.
