People may say, âhe broke the law!â but itâs absurd to expect every immigrant on a valid visa to have a spotless record while living here for years and they shouldnât be deported for minor infractions. It creates a completely unrealistic set of expectations for non-citizens to live by.
just so cruel. The guys doing this are psychopaths.
Great, another libertarian psychopath.
Why are these people not wearing uniforms? Is it a requirement? If so, why are they continuing to wear street clothes?
I know, but 40% (the percentage in each state who voted for Trump in 2024) is not nothing. Dems have to work to keep people from moving to the GOP because voting patterns arenât static. Plus, a lot of those districts in CT and RI are voting for county and school board GOP officials.
Dems need to tell voters in those states, especially the ones who voted for Trump, how much their electric bill will go up.
but yet people are still not making the connection or they say itâs hyperbole. Itâs maddening.
And this is why you canât cooperate with or capitulate to him. People have been doing this for so long and they never learn. He will turn on you and extort you because heâs a criminal. Why do people still not get it?
and he wants to do it because of the Obamasâ connection to the city.
I donât think he fully understands why so many people would be mistrustful of a billionaire who became widely known through his participation on a cheesy TV show (where have we seen beforeâŠ). He hasnât earned my trust through any of his recent media work.
Good morning. When are you resigning?
Heâs a smug, sh*t eating little liar.
I hope youâre actually receptive to learning from other people, though, and being truly open to changing some of your long-held assumptions.
"If you want to have a coup against the constitutional order, you want to control the capital city. And if he has control of the policing in the city of Washington...Who's gonna tell him to leave the White House?" @gtconway.bsky.social joins @jvl.bsky.social:
I want a wealth tax, but one directly applied to Mark Cuban and other billionaires, and I want it to fund education, healthcare, and infrastructure.
His sycophants aside, how come nobody around him rolls their eyes? Why are people so scared of this clown? Showing fear in his presence only makes him stronger.
I havenât trusted the military since the second Iraq war and the forced worship of âthe troopsâ across our society. Thereâs a pervasive arrogance within the military and veteran community and they think theyâre owed blind deference from the rest of us.
Marco has always been a pathetic token for the GOP lol
jail these people.
why does Laura Loomer have so much influence over our government? I donât understand.
Boycott states that send troops to DC.
and the GOP says nothing. Imagine if a Dem did that. This is exhausting.
Yes, Yes and YES.
Why are you giving a platform to Republicans apologists? They own most media sources at this point so why give them even more space? This isnât 1995.
GOOD! I wish it didnât come to this, but the system is already too broken. Fight for whatever chance remains to stop these fascists.
Youâre letting the Republicans play you like a fiddle by challenging Casar instead of standing behind him and letting him lead. Be brave, step aside, help Casar win and help your state-level Dems beat back the Republicans. THAT is how you show true leadership.
How do his supporters not see that heâs a terrible negotiator? đ heâs such a decrepit loser.
If weâre ever able to require LEO accountability again, every person violating first amendment rights like this officer should be fired. Thatâs going to be the best way to root out authoritarian-minded LEOs.
AIPAC and big corporate donors
Itâs a violation of the prohibition against voluntary services under the Antideficiency Act but they likely claimed the âemergencyâ exception or they cut a BS $1 contract to these firms. Itâs also possible they didnât do any of these things because we live in a post-rule of law America.
Even his silhouette makes me ill.
Itâs incredible how craven and fearful large swaths of Americans have become in such a short timeframe. What the hell happened?
and if you havenât put in the work (i.e, learning how to think and analyze) youâre not going to know how to use that PhD expertise. These tech messiahs are so stupid and we are stupid for allowing them to amass the power and influence they have.
and whatâs the standard for âsufficient excuseâ? Whatever the speaker and governor decide it to be?
and when the courts reject his request, theyâll feed that to their MAGA base as, âyou see! The judiciary is politicized! They hate us!â
when youâre informing people about what this terrible administration is doing, tell us why itâs bad and what the Dems will do to reverse it or make things better than it previously was. Tell us how youâre going to fight and beat MAGA once and for all.
why do so many small business owners think their economic interests are aligned with Republicans? Setting up an LLC doesnât mean you have a seat at the table.
Heâs treating our taxpayer dollars like his personal slush fund. F*ck this guy and f*ck the people who are enabling him. I want my taxpayer dollars back.
If the Dems are able to regain power, sue the government actors responsible for the illegal deportations, collect monetary damages from them, and set up a fund to distribute to the victims.
a lack of shared purpose.
It feels like weâre rapidly losing our purpose as a shared society in the US. People removing their kids from public schools, reducing public funding for research, our businesses only focusing on short term share price. I think part of our general societal existential crisis feelings are tied toâŠ
Whatâs your plan for federal employees, contractors, and grantees who have lost their jobs? We know Sears doesnât care but please tell us thereâs a plan to help these people and continue to use their talents in the Commonwealth.
Iâll do it myself, thanks.
I just watched your interview on Pod Save America. You are the wrong person for this job right now. It doesnât mean you canât help behind the scenes but you donât have the energy and charisma to publicly lead anything right now.
Resign.
We are now at a point where, (1) thereâs full state capture, (2) they wonât let us regulate or reform the corruption out, (3) ordinary people are worn out or erroneously believe they can get a piece of a very small pie. What do we do?

And your style is to skip those initial steps and go straight to âand then give up.â The one thing I wish you would give up at this point is your seat in the Senate. Youâre ineffective and itâs time to step aside.
but theyâre not resisting it. Not enough people care and the people who care donât know what to do.
I donât know if itâs worth debating whether itâs fascism or not at this point. What I do know is that heâs destroyed our system of government faster than any dictator or other autocrat ever could and thereâs no going back. So what are we going to do next?
Yet another example of how legacy media (Washington Post) covers a story versus how Democracy Docket does. If you value independent, pro-democracy media, consider supporting Democracy Docket now. newsletters.democracydocket.com/member-meblu...
And all because it was attached to a family he felt snubbed him. Heâs so petty. This is what happens when people let their insecurities fester.
I feel like most of us are stuck in the âDepressionâ stage :/
Theyâre not serious.
You know itâs going to be built with cardboard, papier-mĂąchĂ©, and gold spray paint while his preferred contractors run away with crazy profits. Actually, letâs be honest, weâve become like Turkmenistan now, so itâll likely be a Trump subsidiary that wins the contract. What a disgrace.
State bars arenât fulfilling their purpose if they let these criminals continue to practice law.
These fools would gladly redirect our Social Security savings into $mellania tokens if given the chance.
Are ordinary taxpayers the âpatriot donorsâ here?
and if anyone is curious about their pricing, hereâs their GSA MAS labor categories and rates: www.gsaadvantage.gov/ref_text/47Q...
also, the contract notice stated that O&M funds were used to fund the contract, which generally cannot be used for major construction projects. Theyâre probably using this contract to pay for supplies and other BS services (i.e., âhome office administration costs and feesâ).
I bet theyâll subcontract a good portion of the work to large businesses and will collect a fee for âcontract management.â
because most of America is too busy watching the latest season of Real Housewives to care about much else.
when your ongoing candidacy becomes a distraction and doesnât allow for new candidates to step in and bring fresh ideas, you need to know when itâs time to step back. That goes for Biden, Schumer, Beto, etc.
No, I wasnât and I think she has done a fantastic job at staying relevant in public discourse without being an elected official. This issue is bigger than âx politician needs to do whatever they want to do.â This is about winning against the GOP and knowing when itâs time to put your ego aside.
because she is still brilliant and can do meaningful work that will help people. Elected office isnât the only way to meaningfully contribute to society.
will there be any real consequences for the people who participated in the illegal dismantling of our government?
She was a good senator and should have stayed in that role. At this point, she needs to step away from politics and do something else.
I hope weâve learned not to trust far right speakers who claim they actually cared about free speech on college campuses. They never believed in it.
There needs to be consequences when public officials misstate facts in a public setting if weâre ever going to get back to a fact-based political system.
I would love to see countries impose sanctions and travel bans on administration officials directly responsible for these deportations.
The problem is that most voters are so uninformed and uninterested in understanding how government works that if Dems mitigate the harm of the BBB, theyâll conclude, âyou see, Trumpâs policies didnât hurt us.â
I like the addition of Avlonâs podcast because we need to be able to talk about stopping Trump while concurrently discussing policy-solutions to our biggest problems.
Because investors in AI technology like you have politicized the rollout of AI applications so people have rightfully started to question your motives for pushing it.
Should they have wrote him a picture to say âthank youâ?
This guy only knows how to destroy things. He never considers or cares to think about how his actions harm people.
Is there a way to hold her and other political appointees personally liable for the harm theyâve caused? If the Dems are ever in power again, this needs to be a priority. People who readily went along with Trumpâs plans to break the government need to face real consequences.
thereâs such a disconnect between what the government (primarily the civil service) does and what the public thinks it does. I wish there were a way to effectively communicate the important work federal, state, and local agencies do in our media saturated environment.
Why does the Heritage Foundation still have tax exempt status?
itâs maddening that so many veterans continue to vote for Republicans
Just finished taping with Stephen Colbert who announced his show was cancelled. If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better.
sheâs such a loser lol
what could go wrong?!
Heâs the boy who cried wolf.
Bro, just do it at this point. He wonât though, because he knows tariffs will destroy the economy and his majority in Congress. Itâs crazy so many people think this guy has good business instincts lol.
Iâm curious, why do so many of these guys who have been so well rewarded in life have so much resentment?
A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."
youâre talking about the people who brought us Signalgate. Gross incompetence is their specialty.
people are losing their jobs due to these pointless DOGE layoffs, tech companies are doing the same, and AI is shutting out new grads from the job market. Where does this all end? Why are people in power allowed to so easily take away our livelihoods?
Why are ICE agents masked to begin with? Our law enforcement officers shouldnât be anonymous. Ever.
is anyone going to do anything about it or will everyone just ignore it like theyâre doing with the rest of Trumpâs goons?
I hope this sends a message to any other wannabe Trump lackeys that he will punish you for any critical thinking or independent thought. He wants blind loyalty, not technical expertise or good leadership.
I find congressional inquiries to be so pointless now. Deposed officials never answer the questions and there are no repercussions.
Can somebody call MTV and tell them to pick up their trash (Sean, Rachel, Theo)?
Democratic senators should not vote to confirm a single Trump nominee. This administration is illegitimate and you cannot expect any of his associates to act in good faith to protect the Constitution.
Vote ânoâ on all of his nominees until he stops acting like an autocrat. Donât legitimize any part of this administration.
thatâs great! We need more brave individuals to stand up to autocratic institutions, which includes theocratic state governments that cosplay as secular representative bodies.
uh oh, the Mormon theocratic governments in those states arenât going to be happy that city governments are getting in the way of their ârightâ to hate minorities.
Nobody fâing voted for this.
please impeach this idiot.
