If the Republicans can do this, they can kill 30 million Americans in concentration camps then say for the record it didn't happen. Beware.

New Orleans, huh? My home town. When you consider the governor of Louisiana hates New Orleans, it makes all the sense in the world.
That's the plan, Stan. Reduce America to a handful of angry white folks in the countryside.
Donald Trump wants to shut the Epstein victims up. Why, if you have done nothing wrong?
Who said the parties are the same??? Name me ONE PERSON who said the parties are the same and I'll name you a person who hasn't voted in over 10 years and has lived in a basement.
We need to talk about the difference btw Socialism (Mandami) and expropriation, extortion & grift (Trump). Socialism aims for the government to control the means of production for public good.Trump's actions aim to control private industry for himself. Trump really wants Oligarchy, not Socialism.
How about "Weekend at Donnie's"??
So Laura Loomer is against ANY foreign-born person holding ANY public office in the US. @Arnold Schwarzenegger, are you still okay with Republicans??
Why can't black women and their attorneys file a class action lawsuit for race and class discrimination? It seems they have the strongest case since the Civil Rights Act became law.
This is an easily provable story. Who's the woman? If there's a domestic violence victim "saved" by Giuliani, she's be glad to put out a personal statement or do an interview. If she flagged him down, she should be willing to make herself public.
This is premature. He could have decided to take an early and extended Labor Day vacation. Let's wait and see where we are by September 5th, when the Jobs Report comes out. He HAS to come out and say something on Friday, one way or another.
Except that the President doesn't decide that. Congress does.
I'm a free-thinking Catholic who believes in - and hopes for - heaven and Salvation. I also believe America is changing in a way that will test all faiths and those who have none. This is a time to support each other and all Americans of reason, compassion, democracy and Goodwill.
I wish Biden had bowed out of the 2024 election in early 2023 and Dems could have had a competitive primary and a better candidate in 2024. Beat that for revisionist history.
That's good, but the only Senator who counts now is Bill Cassidy.
I agree with Keith Olbermann.
Well that's a whole Lotta people who choose to debase themselves. I guess the money and benefits are really good.
Perfect response.
Why be mad at FOX for what Trey Gowdy said? Just be mad at Trey Gowdy. BTW, he's not wrong.
Trump is different. And for HIM, hypocrisy is a political asset.
Ladies, it's important to have these political discussions with the men you date BEFORE you have sex with them.
I think this is a wonderful development. Because it proves again that Donald Trump is a mercurial, irrational madman that you as a Trump supporter can't trust. Being a Trump supporter is being in a roller-coaster relationship.
They got you. They got the reaction they wanted. "Owning the Libs"
Bad news.
In other words, "deplorable", as Hillary Clinton said.
Stop posting stuff like this. Have you gone to the Trump supporters and asked them to offer an olive branch to us????
You can't measure it that way. You have to compare the raw numbers to the population of each city and use the rates. SF has 827K people and HTX 2.3 million. So it's 4.2 per 100k in SF vs. 14 per 100k in Houston.
Sorry, Mark. This proposal makes no sense on its face. There's zero correlation to Dems "complimenting Trump " and Dems winning out in 2026. You run for office and compliment your opponent.
How about beating the authoritarian and making him disappear?
Simply ending a war doesn't make you eligible for a Nobel Peace Prize. That comes from a lifetime of striving for peace and healing. This man is all about hurting people.
It's bad news. America is going back to 1899 and will have an 1899 economy by 2028.
Trump has no more of an "exit strategy " in his war against American cities than Bush had for the war in Iraq or LBJ had for the Vietnam War.
Guess who's next? HBCUs
Agreed. But most of America doesn't see the value of immigrants. The work they do and the taxes they pay, including into Social Security. All they see is what FOX News shows them, which is the" bad" side.
The best thing the people of DC can do tonight is go inside, lock their doors, cover their windows and turn all their lights off, inside and out. Make DC look like a ghost town. But they're not gonna listen to me. They're gonna protest and give Trump the attention he wants.
Of course most people oppose a military takeover of their city. But the people don't count anymore because we're not a Democracy.
It doesn't matter for federal laws. For a Trump supporter to face accountability for violating a law, it has to be a state law.
Except for one big problem: For MAGA and Trump, hypocrisy is the platform. It's okay if Trump displays childish behavior, but not Newsom. N won't get away with it and it will come back to bite him later.
Possible, but it becomes a case like the Eddie Murphy movie "The Destinguished Gentleman", where a person gets in office solely on name recognition.
For what?
A good thread. The United States of America was run by smart people of Goodwill until 2015. Then something happened and now we're run by irrational people of badwill. We need to wake up and get salvation back.
I don't get the point here? Is it that we "hate" rural people or rural people are all Republicans? Or both? For me, there's no more point in "hating" rural people that I don't know than "hating" people in Indonesia. I believe in Goodwill towards anyone unless they offer badwill towards me.
There were a couple of African countries that had a truce and Trump's claiming credit for it. I hope he doesn't get a Nobel Peace Prize because you can't be people's "Retribution" and earn a prize for peace.
Not good.
Big mistake. They're gonna be jailed, fined, and lose their seats. All that show for nothing. Maybe the courts will help. Later.
Or, catch Casey Kasem's "America's Top 40". Or get the name from the MTV, VH1 or BET video.
The lack of documentation is on purpose. DJT doesn't believe in it because if you have nothing written you don't have evidence of intent of wrongdoing. Plausible deniability. Oh, and Trump can say he never told them to break laws.
A good development.
Trump's not a capitalist, or a businessman. He's like a mob boss. A mob boss doesn't care about the overall free market system: he only cares about getting his cut and bumping off those that don't give him his cut. You know this.
Or, how about the MAGA nut who shot 3 people to death at a north Austin Target? Or the guy who killed a Minnesota state representative and her husband?
Texas voters don't count. I know this because I am one and I'm losing my representative whether I like it or not.
You're gonna make me say something to get me kicked off Bluesky. But to me, when you do everything you can to aid and comfort a sex trafficker, you support child sex trafficking and that becomes a campaign issue for 2026. Trump is a supporter of child sex trafficking.
Hot take: Trump will enact his nationwide military takeover tour American cities based on EMOTIONAL order.
In the grand scheme of things, the Epstein files in 2025 will become as unimportant as the Gary Condit scandal of 2001. What do we remember from 2001? 9/11. Likewise, 25 years from now, we'll remember the Fall of Democracy.
The best he could get was Fresno State? Even if they have a winner, they'll never make it to the BCS playoffs.
More than interesting. The true believers can never change or be expected not to vote. The rich will be difficult to move except for a rich Democrat who is a business person. The "pick me's" only vote for men so they liked Obama and Bill Clinton.
Actually, years is a good thing. If it runs to November 26, then we can keep the 5 seats for the midterms.
What's the law that she thinks is broken?
BECAUSE POPULARITY DOESN'T COUNT!!!!!!
I don't drink coffee, but I'm not okay with this. But I figure most Americans will put up with higher prices because they don't want DEI or drag queens.
This is the USA 2025. It's just disconcerting how easily America fell.
It's open corruption. Does a VP have "absolute immunity"?
I really don't have a ready answer for a President that's hellbent on hurting a university in a state that he hates. I'm thinking you could sue him for something and maybe he'll go after easier targets.
Because the bad guy won the election. A sex assaulter won the election. Easy.
This is not a story. Trump meeting with Dems in 2.0 is not expected.
While I'm in Texas and support the Dems actions here, I forewarn that we don't know the end result of the walkout yet. The Republicans might still get a quorum because enough Dems break ranks. And after 10 days or a few weeks, it gets difficult to stay so far away from your home.
The safe thing to do is move the 28 Olympics out of the USA. This whole country is dangerous.
Whoa. A whole Lotta people approve of a violent fascist state.
I miss your voice on MSNBC. I still watch because they have a lot of good people. But none gave the perspective like you. Particularly on issues affecting black Americans. They really want to make us go away.
56 years after the first man on the moon, and they come up with this.
Why ask that when the bad guys are in charge.
There goes the Kansas City Chiefs.
I support the Texas Dems but this gambit won't work. Trump will send federal marshals to kidnap them and bring them back. And Governor Abbott is giving them a 3pm Monday deadline to return. Or he will try to replace their posts. Ken Paxton will fine them and arrest them when they return.
Trump's silence changes soon. He will send federal marshals to kidnap the Texas Dems and bring them back to Texas. Where they will be locked at the statehouse chambers until the session ends.
Trump HAS to pardon G. Maxwell for the same reason he HAD to fire the director of BLS. Maxwell has some incriminating information about Trump and so do the Epstein files. She has to. If she didn't, they'd be eager for her to talk without a deal.
Learning is a Bitch.
I'm gonna say this again. In this new era, if you want a person who's broken the law to stay in prison, you have to convict them stateside. Federal means nothing now because the bad guy won.
How is that even possible?
Courts are too slow. By the time the courts rule, the deals will already be done and the money made.
My hope is, that in 2029, our next Democratic President will erase everything Donald Trump has ever left us. So that by 2032, the Orange Monster will be as distant a memory as the Yellow Pages.
If you're explaining, you're losing. Actions require no explanation.
He's 86 and looks it.
There will be no rest for those weary of Trump's daily "deals". Until Trump goes away. And Trump going away will be something.
It's all scorched Earth now. You can't play fair anymore.
This isn't funny. Conspiracy theorists are in charge of the FBI. And their goal is to "get" political enemies, even if they have to make up stories to do it. And their followers will believe the crazy stories. And good people may well be indicted or worse because of it.
she didn't confirm she'd run for President. But if she runs, she loses.
Was this 16 yo hire done before or after DJT walked into the girls dressing room at the Miss Teen USA pageant in Russia?
Who's Virginia Guiffre? And where is she now?
"Changing Trump voters" is not an option in the age of Trump. Instead, you try to persuade young voters, new voters, and independents.
That's good, but money doesn't matter as much as having a good candidate, a good message, and a good campaign.
I agree. Don't tell me what you failed at. Tell me what you accomplished.
And it works! It works because people don't know their American history and American government and world history. They believe what "sounds right" rather than what's true based on good sources.
I don't live in that fear. Yes, it's a possibility, but so is dying in a highway accident. Living in fear is a choice. It doesn't change reality, but you can decide to live freely despite what's going on around you.
Jenga is a good analogy. A house of wet playing cards is another.
I question how they're gonna field a good football or basketball team. But seriously, if people want to just "keep with their own kind" in a small, self-sufficient enclave, they can do so, but mark off your territory so nobody steps in by accident. And no services that affect interstate commerce.
Meanwhile, the Nazi Party is at its highest approval rating since 1938.
I hope the day comes when we see ICE agents eating off the floor.
Any accountability for the victims of Epstein for any living, unjailed clients needs to come stateside. The DOJ is to corrupt to serious resolve this case.
Then what is DA Bragg waiting for? We all know whom we're dealing with - and what he's going to do by January 19, 2029.
