There’s nothing that can sum this up,
This is huge, and my only concern is why isn't it on every fucking front page and newscast in the country?
Trump is upfront in saying he will use the shutdown to punish Democrats, and here are the receipts. About $27.2 billion cut from Dem districts compared to about $0.7 billion in GOP districts.
We all complain about the media, but need this type of in-depth journalism.

The good news is that if you own a rare copy of “Heavy Rotation” by Rex Michaels, you now have a collector’s item!

Shit is fucked up and bullshit, part 5,493
FASCISM!
The local police arrested him for daring to criticize dear leader.
And this isn't a threat, not even close. He posted a quote from Trump. That's it.
Post a meme - arrested for inciting violence
Storm the Capitol on Jan. 6 - actual violence, pardons for all

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.
Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.
The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism
In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Meiselas: I think this is a serious oversight issue. $17 trillion is apparently missing right now, and we’re in a government shutdown. Trump keeps saying he’s got $17 trillion. Where did it go?
Garcia: If there is $17 trillion somewhere, the government doesn’t know about it.

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

Just a reminder that the Commander-in-Chief of the Louisiana National Guard, who can call them out all by himself if they were actually needed, is … Governor Landry.
Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry: "Tonight, we're sending the Department of War a request to send the National Guard, asking them to deploy the National Guard here in Louisiana into our cities like New Orleans and Baton Rogue and others."

Republicans don't need a single democrat to keep the government open. If the government shuts down, it's because republicans want it to.

There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Portland knows...
A friendly reminder, that even if a city has high crime rates, it’s inappropriate and unconstitutional to deploy troops there as a way to enforce law.
