Pritzker: Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: Once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"
Looks like he had a brow lift.
Liked it better when everyone was enjoying the fantasy of his death.
Gavin Newsom trolled Trump big time š
So much time he stole from us
Plus, we can laugh at him and ridicule the rest of his stupid minions and the ones who did nothing to do their Constitutional duty with so much more vigor and freedom.
Not satire, because itās a good bet they do
This is the way
The words we use to describe what is happening in America donāt necessarily convey the proper level of alarm or danger. The words we use come from history, but itās the present that has me so worried.
I posit that some MAGA boner will tweet and truth years after heās dead and they wonāt notice or accept heās gone.
Epstein named in Trump files, man.
šÆ
Make these Nazis pay for their naked power grab.
Iām already embarrassed.
Whatās up with New Hampshire?
I hope she travels that intersection frequently
These mutherfuckers will pay for this or we all go down in their weird dystopia.
End of week reminder that Iām running for California AD-72! Weāve already gotten over 700 contributions so far, and a huge thanks to everyone thatās pitched in. Itās time to step up and fight for our democracy. (Iāll do one of these on Monday and one on Friday so I donāt spam your feed too much)
Amen
I think theyāre just fine with it
NEW: Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed into law a new, deeply gerrymandered congressional map that disenfranchises voters of color for political gain. All voters deserve to be heard. This is an affront to our democracy.
Another brick in the wall of American decline caused by the abject failure of conservatives to adhere to any principles beyond fealty to blind ambition and greed.
Ignore the referees and keep scoring. Yes. Akin to the idea that you continue to deliver body blows to your political opponents when you have them on the ropes. Felt like Democrats were never good enough at that.
I hope so too. Especially the Triple dippers.
Welch: Everybody's missing the point here. The point is, he's doing this on purpose. He's priming the public to get accustomed to having the military in the streets
My latest in @newrepublic.com: an urgent plea to recognize the humanity of DC residents, their longtime second-class citizenship and need āshould democracy not already be lost foreverāfor statehood. āWashington, D.C., residents are the most powerless canary in the most authoritarian coal mine.ā
Ummm
I heard the places really stinks!
What is it when terminology is defined by events in real time? Because maybe āauthoritarianismā doesnāt come loaded for all with alarm bells like actual reality in DC, in Los Angeles, or in this governmentās supplication to a petty tyrant. Anyone can see this is really bad, whatever you call it.
Makes one wonder how all those swing states went for Trump.
Wrapped in the American flag, they call themselves patriots. So when this shitbird says many people want a dictator, where is their love of America? They donāt even understand America.
Itās official. September 6th. From all across this nation. We march in D.C. Join us.
What a useless trunt
Constituent: You need to take your head out of Trumpās ass.
Anyone fact-check him on his bullshit today?
I mean, that too
ICE is an abomination.
Meiselas: Stop both-sidesing it, media. Stop trying to sow division within the Democratic Party when we literally have military invasions into American cities, aided and abetted by red state governors, who, again, are the takers who wouldn't exist without the blue states
A man, near the White House, who describes himself as a "retired disabled combat veteran," after burning an American flag tells bystanders "I am being detained because I expressed my First Amendment rights."
He did it because the right of expression was threatened by an unlawful decree of a wannabe dictator. Thatās the reason.
If our republic was functional, that traitor would have been impeached a long time ago.
This is important. Immediate response to unlawful Executive Order in violation of First Amendment.
This US veteran burnt an American flag in protest of the EO Trump signed today that contradicted 2 SCOTUS rulings (1989 & 1990).
We now have an economy subject to the whims and desires of one person, unaccountable to anyone else. Call it what it is: a dictatorship.
So called proponents of 2A seem not to be aware of or understand how supporting Trump has doomed their ability to own and possess firearms.
š¤£šš Repost please or quote. Just spread the truth š
Abolish ICE. End the regime.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
šNOTE TO PRESS: You are allowed to push back, ask follow-up questions, and correct lies for the record when questioning anybody, but mostly when questioning the most notorious liar on the planet. In fact, that's your fucking job.
Somebody fact-check these tyrannical liars.
DC statehood now.
I was in the news business for only 4 decades, so maybe I don't know much. But it seems like the transformation of the U.S. into a police state would be worth a headline and a few paragraphs.
It's high time for us to consider that we Americans owe our Constitution and democratic heritage far more than our fortunes and sacred honor.
This isnāt about republicans vs. democrats anymore. Party lines hold little meaning. Itās about whether we continue to exist as a constitutional republic or completely devolve into an autocracy. Every American should be outraged in their bones about whatās going on.
Feels like too many Americans will just watch this happen and shrug.
lol ONLY DONALD TRUMP IS ALLOWED TO TWEET AND PODCAST BECAUSE HEāS THE RULER OF ALL OF US.
There is a better way to speak to people.
We are no longer a sane country anymore.
Think about your Trumper neighbors and acquaintances who think this is fine and Biden was a communist.
These people are very sensitive and also not very smart and also ruining the country
Just astonishing. Having to discuss these people in earnest when theyāre some of the dumbest, greediest, most unserious people.
Pure extortion.
Itās definitely going to take a whole lot more people to wake up and take notice of the Republican Partyās chokehold on liberty and democracy.
Paulās right, itās unreal how little traction this story has gotten. www.mediaite.com/crime/israel...
Possibly radioactive shrimp.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu: āSilence in the face of oppression is not an option. The U.S. Attorney General asked for a response by today. So here it isā¦Stop attacking our cities to hide your administration's failures.ā
Texas has criminalized political opposition. Get up, stand up.
Heās instructed āhis attorneysā to āgo through the museums.ā Folks, itās long past time to wake up and smell the fash.
Drudge, currentlyā¦
Texas is gonna go through some things.
Mic drop.
National Guard reminder....
James Madison: āThe accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive & judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elected, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.ā
Abolish ICE
When they go low, weāre going to bury their majority under the Capitol.
What the hellās the matter with them crazy chuckleheads?
Political violence. America 2025.
On Saturday, about 5,000 people gathered at the Capitol in Austin to protest President Donald Trump and the Texas Legislatureās plan to redraw the stateās congressional districts to give Republicans more seats in the U.S. House. via @kutnews.bsky.social
Are they truly too dumb to recognize the parody?
āYou know youāre ruining the country right?ā MASKED ICE GOON: āLiberals already ruined it.āš¤ Trumpās Gestapo attacks a D.C. delivery driver (one gives himself a concussion)ā and they again make it clear who they are under the masks, and how far off the cliff we arešŗšø (from @marisakabas.bsky.social)
Important point is that he has that choice when Putin has him on his knees.
If we could speed that up Iād sure enjoy seeing it.
He was smart to get the salami and not the ham sandwich. Much easier to indict a ham sandwich.
National Guard patrolling our cities. Masked men snatching people off the streets w/o due process. Warrants on elected representatives for defending the Constitution. Journalists muzzled for reporting the facts. Judges attacked for upholding the law. (1/4)
Jimmy Fallon was lost to me when he had Trump on his show in September 2016. He is now the modern day equivalent of a Nazi sympathizer. This moment calls for the courageous, not this cowardice.
Not too sympathetic to Usha, but hereās hoping her misery becomes more apparent, and maybe she spills the tea post-divorce.
GOP: the second amendment protects us from tyranny Also GOP: YAY! Federal troops are being sent to control DC! GOP: we support the free market! Also GOP: itās fine that NVIDIA and AMD are being illegally forced to pay 15% to the government to sell their products in China.
Not earmarks of fascism, but actual fascism. It is no longer enough for the people of this country to observe this conduct by the Trump regime. All of these abuses must be punished.
If he won in a landslide, why do they need to gerrymander?
āYou cannot negotiate with people who say whatās mine is mine and whatās yours is negotiable.ā President John F. Kennedy
Itās a dead heat
What happens when you fail to permanently rid your country of criminal heads of state/presidents/prime ministers etc.
What happened to your weekly AMAs?
If youāre appalled by Pete Hegseth attending a church that advocates for women to lose the right to vote, you should read the rest of Project 2025.
Too true
People in Los Angeles have been protesting 24 hours for 2 weeks straight and no news outlet is covering it! 8/8/25
