The baroque corruption schemes playing out in America and Russia completely outclass the kickback scandal in Ukraine.

"The judiciary is barely holding up. At this point, it all comes down to people having the will to resist. My concern will be the same next year as it is now: Do people have sufficient backbone to resist, or are they going to start looking out for themselves?" — @bradmossesq.bsky.social
Bradley Moss on Trump's unhinged (and legally bogus) threats
"At what point does he just become too much of an albatross around Republicans’ necks?"

Okay but WHY are the Kennedy Center Honors not being given out at the Kennedy Center? Did they cancel and move it to the Oval because ticket sales were non-existent?

Has anyone written a coherent, good-faith argument *against* a ban on stock trading by members of Congress, or in favor of the status quo? What is the argument lawmakers use when explaining why they don't want a vote on the matter? Having trouble finding.

Over on the Facebook, you can bet that whether it's ICE brutalizing immigrant toddlers, or the US military mass-murdering civilians in international waters, every person cheering it on makes sure that you know they are a "Christian" in their profile. Every. Single. One.

Every American who wore the uniform from Valley Forge to now took an oath against tyranny, making them textbook antifascists. The military's entire purpose is defending democracy from authoritarianism. Declaring antifa "domestic terrorism" means our founding principle is now a prosecutable offense.

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.
This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.
