Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

This is the most pathetic thing I’ve ever read, a bunch of whiny conservative judges invited Steve Vladeck to a federalist society panel so they could dogpile him bitching about his (accurate) writing about right wing judge shopping in the federal courts substack.com/app-link/pos...
109. Things Fall Apart

Truth be told, it does seem kind of silly to have the FBI do background checks on presidential appointees when the president is a convicted criminal and an adjudicated digital rapist.

1/ Hey, Bluesky community! Thanks for taking an interest in what we do at @ProPublica.org.
I’ve spent this year reporting on the people and policies to expect in Trump 2.0 — from Project 2025 and attacks on civil servants to MAGA's plan to “eradicate” all mentions of climate change.

This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.

I guess evangelical Republicans besides Pence won’t say a word about Trump appointing someone who is 100% pro-choice on abortion to HHS since they have demonstrated long ago that the things they claim to care about will always be subservient to loyalty for the New Messiah Trump.

So Trump’s Border Czar nominee wrote the section on the border for Project 2025’s manifesto and Trump’s FCC nominee wrote the section on the FCC for Project 2025. But Trump had no connection to it and doesn’t know anything about it.
