He acted in D.C. based on a false "emergency." Even if the case is closer in court, the political imperative to push back against authoritarianism on every front and in every place is vital. What he's done is wrong and paves the way for much worse. Bowser should be resisting at every turn.
In California, a federal judge just ruled that the Bozo Fascist's dress rehearsal for martial law in L.A. was unlawful. But D.C. Mayor Bowser is groveling and capitulating in the face of Trump's takeover of local law enforcement in the Capital. What gives? Why did Bowser chicken out? Pathetic.
Another ham sandwich goes un-indicted. If we don't watch out, grand juries will get a reputation for thinking for themselves! www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
He's already sleeping with Satan. I saw it on "South Park."
Taking food from children. There is no depth to which the Bozo Fascist will not descend.
What is up with D.C. Mayor Bowser capitulating to the Bozo Fascist's dress rehearsal for martial law? Am I missing something? Why not go down fighting for your city and for the rule of law -- and against authoritarianism? She just abandoned all of the protesters who stood up to Trump. Sickening.
Twenty Democratic-led states and the District of Columbia sued the Trump administration over its decision to withhold grant money to states that refuse to implement the president’s aggressive immigration and deportation policies.

Dangerous Militarization: Drug trafficking warrants law enforcement interdiction, not warfare on the open seas. Blowing shit up to wag the dog will lead to chaos and distraction. Plus the Bozo Fascist Regime can't get its story straight on where this boat was headed. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/u...
It's official: The dress rehearsal for martial law is illegal. But it will take mass protest to face down the Bozo Fascist. Get ready, Chicago. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/u...
I stand with Lisa Cook and against the Bozo Fascist trying to destroy the Federal Reserve.

Bozo Fascist reality-twisting: 1. ) Needlessly create economic chaos by imposing, rescinding, re-imposing arbitrary tariffs. 2.) Blame the judiciary for economic chaos when it strikes down the tariffs as unlawful. DON'T BUY IT. CHAOS IS HOW FASCISTS ACCUMULATE POWER. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/u...

Here's Trump's White House Counsel, David Warrington, on how a fascist lawyer operates: Trump "is the one that makes the ultimate decisions,” Mr. Warrington said, adding: “And whether I have a personal view of something is really, that’s — unless asked for it, I don’t give it.” I JUST FOLLOW ORDERS.
This legal henchman, David Warrington, is Trump's Hans Frank. Like Hitler's personal lawyer, he "eases the path" for Trump's "aggressive agenda," in the absurd euphemisms employed by a clueless NYT. Wake up, journalists! You're reporting on a fascist putsch! Resist!! www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/u...
All right, thanks for your service, Nadler. Good that you finally read the writing on the wall. Also good that you're saying that OTHER tired old Dems need to get out of the way for the next generation. We need energy, imagination, new faces, new ideas. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/n...
"Maine deserves better than Susan Collins."
Maine Dems: get out and beat surrender monkey Susan Collins.
The Bozo Fascist's loyal lawyer and antic liar, now poised to receive the nation's highest civilian honor. This is nothing less than a stain on the nation. Always a prick, even at his height, Rudy revealed himself as a racist drunk who was disbarred for promoting Trump's "stolen election" fraud.
"Every one of these people is taking with them skills and knowledge that will be difficult to replace. But there may be no single individual whose departure better captures what is being lost and destroyed than Demetre Daskalakis."

The Bozo Fascist incites racism by citing crime in majority-Black cities. In fact, crime rates are much higher in many rural red states. One more example of the authoritarian strategy of distorting reality and invoking false "emergencies" to grab control of society. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...
"Each claim is completely, 100% made up." Yes, thank you, sane Republican lady, an honest foe, now an ally. The Bozo Fascist Regime is build on bullshit, from top to bottom. We need to keep fighting, in solidarity with honest conservatives, to show the truth and get the lying bastards out.

Revisiting these NY Times predictions 9 months later is chilling. Sure wish the paper of record was speaking out as strongly now.

there's a really great doc that came out a couple of years ago called Every Body that talks to intersex people about their experiences and explores the history of how intersex people have been treated and the issues they still face today. it's incredibly enlightening.

Modi of India called Trump "a true friend." Then Modi realized that everything his Bozo Fascist "friend" touches turns to shite. Friendship? Not so much. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/u...
Rule of Law: Yet another federal district judge has rejected the Trump administration's brazen lawlessness. The Bozo Fascist and his ICE thugs do NOT have authority to fast-tack deportations far from the border. STOP the cruelty. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/u...

Across the breakfast table - but without discussing it - my husband and I were posting strikingly similar critiques NY Times lead story this morning (ok, his is a little saltier). Between us, we have about a half century of mainstream media experience, so listen up.

Cruelty is the point. Cruelty is the core of MAGA.
Ashli Babbitt was a domestic terrorist. She does not deserve any sort of public honor. Her story is sad, her death unfortunate. But twisting history to make her a hero is nothing short of obscene.
NY Times you need to do better. As a longtime MSM person myself, I understand the inclination to “both sides” it. But attributing alarm about Trump upending the independence of agencies to “critics” misses the mark. And “Big Risks” doesn’t capture the existential threat. 🧵
Resigned expert says RFK Jr has NOT BEEN BRIEFED by anyone at the CDC about COVID, the flu or measles. Watch Caitlin Collins’ extremely strong interview with these 3 leaders who resigned together to sound the alarm about our public health crisis. m.youtube.com/watch?v=7-hP...

"CRITICS See Big Risks"?! WTF? There aren't 2 sides to this story. Trump destroys CDC, EPA, FEMA -- agencies that protect American health and well being. You don't need a Trump "critic" to tell you that. Would it be "Hitler Rises to Power; Critics See Big Risks"?! www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/u...
Sure Trump happens to attack the Black woman member of the Fed. No coincidence. But it's more than a racist, sexist gambit. It's part of a broader effort to destroy government and replace it with dictatorship. CDC, HHS, DOJ, FBI, USAID, EPA, CIA & ON AND ON. RESIST!! www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/u...
It's about forking time.

GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Facts are stubborn things… Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas…. Alabama is a top 3 murder state. Where is the President? — He isn’t focused on crime & violence. It’s about an expression of authoritarianism.” (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )
Perhaps the national guard can be tasked with spotting mitochondrial challenged children after they’re done mulching.
JD Vance is disgusting in every regard, including his grave dancing in anticipation of the mortal demise of the Bozo Fascist.
I stand with Greenland and Denmark (and, for that matter, with Canada). Stand up to the Bozo Fascist. We're ashamed of him. We are fighting against him and his MAGA flying monkeys.
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.
Brain-worm conspiracy monger RFK Jr. is a lunatic narcissist fanatic -- a walking, 'roided-up monster. Oh, and he doesn't know a forking thing about what he's (always) talking about.
#NIH is hanging by a thread. The #CDC has been decimated. #RFK Jr. and Russell #Vought are psychopaths--I don't say this frivolously--they are cold, calculating, inflicting violence on millions through public policy. It is where we are right now. These men are not normal. 1/

Indivisible's @ezralevin.bsky.social: The way the Democratic Polling Elites are deciding what issues to focus on "is ASS BACKWARDS." And he is correct.
Indivisible's @leahgreenberg.bsky.social: "We need to make Trump's repression attempts BACKFIRE." Again, she's correct.
"There is NO RISK FREE PATH when an authoritarian consolidates power. If we ORGANIZE COLLECTIVELY, there will be so many of us" repression becomes much more difficult. "That is the Path." - @leahgreenberg.bsky.social Most of today's @indivisible.org call was just me yelling Amen to my chihuahuas.

High toss, brush up and over the ball. Forget everything else they're telling you. Just hit, Coco! We love you!!
Thank you to the hundreds at FEMA who bravely signed the Katrina Declaration calling out the dangers the Trump Regime brings to US disaster management. Trump put them Leave IN THE MIDDLE OF HURRICANE SEASON. Stand with them. Thanks to @standupforscience.bsky.social for supporting their fight.
