There is no reason to be polite or decorous about this any more.
The current Supreme Court is corrupt.
US democracy cannot survive unless it is reformed.

US democracy cannot survive unless it is reformed.
Democrats need to lay the groundwork for reform by attacking the villains on the Supreme Court - loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly. And they should start now.

Democrats Need to Treat the Supreme Court Like the Villain It Is
The Court is out of control, and we'll never see reform unless we build the case for it. Starting now.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?

Just wrote an upbeat (!) Morning Shots.
I mean, if not today, when?
We should relish this moment. For a few hours. Because we should realize that these results are going to make the Trump administration even more aggressive about tilting the 2026 playing field, and we need to be ready for that.

Confronting the Ongoing Onslaught
Trump's East Wing demolition, demands for $230 million and the ongoing murders in the Caribbean Sea are the latest reminders that we must remain vigilant and push back

"Marc Benioff doesn't actually care if San Francisco is getting better or not. He doesn't care about actual policies. He just wants Daddy Trump to like him, so now he's gonna be fully in on fascism as long as he can keep his f*cking compound and his private jet."

And yes, they're trying to intimidate us but Pritzker's right -- everyone needs to be out in numbers at these events.
By contrast, JB Pritzker told me that people should flood the No Kings protests precisely in order to let the American people know that something is deeply amiss.
More Dems should be doing this, to send the message widely that we are in real trouble right now.

There is only one reason why Donald Trump the raving, idiotic, racist, lunatic, convicted, criminal and adjudicated sexual abuser is still president. It is because the Republicans in Congress support him. They could remove him from office to impeachment process. But they won’t.

MAGA was a categorically violent domestic extremist movement before the tragic death of Charlie Kirk and it will *continue* to be one after his death.
The reason? Its leader is a rapist, serial sexual predator, convicted felon, and career criminal who *loves* political violence.

They might be making Trump mad, but Newsom has been throwing these at the press -- if you think these are beneath my office, why don't you say that when the president does the same thing?
He's exposing that the media has a separate set of standards for Our Very Special Boy and that's good.

I don’t know that these tweets from Newsom’s press office are actually accomplishing anything, but this one nearly made me spit out my coffee (literally).

A rambling and incoherent Trump wants to turn DC into his personal police state despite a 30-year low in crime.
He's a pathetic wannabe dictator who wants to distract you from his connection to the Epstein files, skyrocketing costs, and his weak job numbers.
Don't let him.
