Charlie Sykes: “On a massive scale, the rallies refuted the MAGA fear-mongering about “Hate America” riots, exposing (once again) Mike Johnson, Karline Leavitt, and Ted Cruz as the retromingent assholes they are.”

A load of shit by any other name, however, sends a starkly clear message: “Trump’s post is not only juvenile but also betrays striking contempt for tens of millions of Americans he ostensibly leads and for the concept of democratic free speech,”

Ben Meiselas calls on those with standing to act: seek an injunction to halt Trump’s White House ballroom. Argue fraud—Trump claimed he’d pay and not alter the structure—and use the damage to the East Wing as the emergency basis. Demand discovery now.

Levin: I did not pay one dime to any Republican to publicize the No Kings protest. They’re talking about it all by themselves because they’re scared—scared of mass, peaceful people power.

They can smear us all they want—these are our First Amendment rights, and we’re showing up.

Really hope there are massive, peaceful crowds. Strength in numbers!

The alignment of far right politicians with billionaire tech bros is at play.
The op ed is an illustration of why so many subscribers left the WashPo and so many journalists left the newspaper in disgust and dismay over what happened to a revered paper.

“Senior military leaders should have stepped in to prevent Trump from turning addresses at Fort Bragg and Norfolk into political rallies; the silence of the Army and Navy secretaries, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and some top generals and admirals is appalling…”

“America’s senior military officers, including Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Dan Caine, must approach Trump now and make clear to him that they will not obey illegal orders to act against American citizens or disrupt the American political process.”

It is not a crime to point out the obvious. If someone dedicates their life to being a highly-paid stooge for Israel & technocrat oligarchs to spread religio-political prejudice & hate toward others in support of Judeo-Christian right-wing fascism, Jesus says “you will reap what you sew!”

I've finally gotten around to joining up to BlueSky today, & this is my first text post. I am interested in a lot of subjects and fields of research, & hope to be sharing a lot. Greetings to all the new friends I will be making on my BlueSky journey!

Schiff: "If a president in secret can put names on a list and kill them, then there is no war power still retained by Congress, and there's no check on an executive who may drag us into another war."

🏆 How does a comedy show have the best news research team? @thedailyshow.com

When Kirk was assassinated I heard a lot of obituaries & tributes to Kirk. One of the obituaries was a tribute to how Kirk called for the release of. Epstein files. We all know how the Felon is threatened Epstein files

Hey, terrific. Get on with it. Who needs MAGA Mike anyway? She is the last vote needed to release the Epstein files. 😆
