"It begs the question: why would Donald Trump, of all people, give a damn what the public speculates about photos of his swollen ankles and bruised hands? Normally, he and his people would just ignore it. They’d probably slam the media for even asking."

Andrew Cuomo refuses to take no for an answer despite losing the Democratic primary for mayor of New York City so he’s running as a third party candidate.

Further proof bro is a closet Republican trying to split votes.

Go away already.

Two days after the deadly Texas floods, FEMA struggled to answer calls from survivors to its disaster assistance line.

Why? Because hundreds of employees who answered phones were fired after Kristi Noem didn't approve new contracts.

"Efficiency."

DOJ was broken before Trump got in. It is, in fact, *how* Trump got in: DOJ started investigating him in 1973 but refused to prosecute, instead maintaining a decades-long corrupt collaboration. Beware any podcaster/pundit/pol who told you to trust DOJ over the past decade. That was a propaganda op.

Nothing is off the table for this regime. Armed and masked men are kidnapping people off American streets.

We are living in a lawless and scary country.

“ICE in just a few weeks has transformed itself into the closest thing that the US has ever had to a ‘secret police,’ with more seemingly culturally in common with the Klan nightriders of Reconstruction than their federal agency brethren like the FBI or ATF.” @garrettgraff.bsky.social

Has-been actress and Trump supporter, Justine Bateman, is now begging Donald not to sell off federal land for housing developments.

He literally said he was going to do that during his campaign.

Perhaps she should have paid attention.

Omgosh. Before falling asleep last night the last thought I had was that it doesn’t make sense that Poland voted the way that it did after all the struggles to move back toward democracy.And I thought that they should call for a recount or start an investigation like we are in NY for irregularities

Trump's pardons of fraudsters and ripoff artists will cost victims and survivors of crime more than $1.3 BILLION in fines and restitution.

He’s stealing from American taxpayers so that criminals can walk away.

Couple thoughts on this Ukrainian operation:

18 months of planning with no leaks is crazy impressive.

The intelligence picture, the OpSec, and the execution were all top notch.

I’m curious to see what else they have planned, and yes I’m worried about how Russia will respond.
