I didn't have Hakeem Jeffries praising Trump for pardoning Henry Cuellar as the thing that would absolutely ruin my day, but just...truly...how in the world can people defend Hakeem Jeffries? How morally lost do you have to be to go to bat for someone who will never even pretend to protect you?

Made somebody mad for saying that the most logical Bubba is the one who's already been called that multiple times in Epstein's emails.
There's definitely a kind of boomer Bill Clinton stan who is viscerally offended on his behalf by the idea that he might have been blown by a dude.

If I was a Republican member of Congress watching the results tonight, I’d ask myself if I really wanted my legacy to be: Guy who helped an aging pedophile suspend the constitution so he could enrich himself and his friends.

When Trump was willing to let 15 million of the poorest people in the world die by vaporizing USAID there simply was no reason to doubt he’d do the same thing here.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

🚨 IMPORTANT THREAD 🚨
People are protesting the Broadview ICE facility tonight. This will likely be an extremely high-risk action. I caution you to consider your risk level before attending. I will not attend.
Attendance risks your safety, but also the safety of Broadview residents + detainees. 1/6

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.
Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Five years ago, @brandyzadrozny.bsky.social and I did a story about rural Oregon's fever dream that Antifa was coming to their town from Portland.
Hundreds showed up armed downtown because they heard on Facebook that "Antifa buses" were coming.
No buses came so they said Antifa "retreated."

In Klamath Falls, Oregon, victory declared over antifa, which never showed up
Towns from Washington state to Indiana have seen armed groups begin patrolling the streets after rumors spread on social media about an antifa invasion.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.
