They just can’t stop beating up immigrants, can they? “Mexican rapists!” “They eat our pets!” “They illegally vote!” “English only!” Dems need to reach across aisle & forge alliance of decency w ppl who agree to support immigrants & want them here. Enough groveling & pandering to haters.
No
Well Nadler’s decades of defending whatever Israel did is what led to current horror & election of Trump.
Just beware of who the oligarchy tries to impose on us. Looks like they already have one lackey picked out. www.cnn.com/2025/07/30/p...
There is so much to say abt this unfolding matter, w a strong caution against partisan nonsense, rush to judgment, & motives of all involved. But one thing stands out: due process is being afforded these children. And if you don’t recognize how important that is, you haven’t been paying attention.
Man, “disciplinary institution,” full stop. The writing is beautiful, the story tragic. Separating children from parents is very risky & can be traumatizing. Two years at this kind of place can leave lifelong scars. May Tiffany rest in peace & may her loved ones be consoled.
This is delusional idiocy. Every American participating in this crime shld beware of the consequences of abetting genocide.
This guy, his wife, whole family, & all their accomplices ought to be led off in handcuffs.
So everyone shld stop calling it a “war.” A genocide is NOT a war.
Spoke with Giuliani’s head of security, Michael Ragusa, who said the former mayor is expected to remain hospitalized for a couple more days. He described last night’s collision as a freak accident that occurred after Giuliani intervened in a DV incident. “It’s just wrong place, wrong time.”
My oh my, I’m sure no one had this on their bingo cards. This is intriguing, Molly, we’re all eager to learn what happened. But if Giuliani was actually attempting to do a good deed when he got hurt, wld be first in miserable jerk’s 81 years & nothing short of video proof wld convince me.
I think you posted an old memo: this was the legal fees check Trump wrote for Giuliani after Giuliani put his entire net worth, license, & public stature on the line to promote Trump’s deranged stolen-election idiocy & Trump hung him out to dry.
On behalf of the hordes of dim-eyed, socially disengaged, & non-curious zombies who’ve roamed the planet for decades not understanding our malaise, thank you, RFK, Jr, for exposing the vax manufacturers who did this to us.😂😂😂 (Once again, we truly live in Dumbassistan.)
Imagine finding ways to make our abominable healthcare system worse? I give you the Trump Admin, preening narcissist RFK, Jr., & the conspiracy theory nut jobs backing their quackery.
Correct, including in mealymouthed “reporting.”
Teaching truth in the face of unjust power is also an act of resistance: teach on, Joel.
They DGAF, worthless cowards. They just care abt getting air time or promotions or keeping positions or avoiding heat for saying what is. As in lead-up to Iraq War, our media have been at best AWOL when not openly complicit.
“Fighting,” the term Western media use to describe indiscriminate slaughter of unarmed & innocent civilians, mostly children, by one of world’s most powerful armies. Every word these ppl write is abetting crimes against humanity—& to hell with anyone who later agrees to forget their complicity.
Marvelous piece, from @karenzraick.bsky.social, on origins of Labor Day we never learned in school. (No paywall.) www.nytimes.com/article/what...
2/2 anyone can see it. History will look at Weimar US & list these key fails before armed conflict: •non-conviction of Trump for J6 •non-impeachment of Trump over J6 pardons •permitting Trump henchmen to warp/weaponize DOJ/army •Dem Party collapse •troops in cities Slow-moving freight coming…
1/2 🎯🎯🎯And this is only one of dozens of outcomes—all bad—from letting Prez deploy troops to cities. With “fighting crime!” & “immigrant invasion!” as excuses, Trump is setting in motion events that may be catastrophic, including civil war as ppl/states fight back. Nor is Pritzker Nostradamus:
Trump may be an uninformed & bigoted ignoramus. But he’s also undoubtedly cunning. His instincts for mass influence are unsurpassed. Underestimating him is at our collective peril.
Okay, I had to google Nevis—it’s worth it—this guy is smart & right on target.
Insidious & maddening distraction: of course it’s a genocide but who GAF? 20K children are dead, 20K orphaned, child amputee population largest in history—& ppl talk semantics. Israel is perpetrating a crime against humanity, US/UK are abetting, all morality & decency scream “Enough!” Full stop.
Because stooping to juvenile name-calling & insults in the manner of Trump is what’s needed in Dem leaders today.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Even by the low standards applied to the Trump gang & Musk/DOGE idiots, this is a beyond the pale outrage. And zero accountability.🤬
2/2 But there’s more: this is just plumb bad interviewing. Here’s Roy’s PEN speech. Note the gripping deconstruction of the very concept of “unflinching.” How in God’s name does Garcia-Navarro then describe Roy as “unflinching?” smh Paint-by-numbers claptrap—even title. mronline.org/2024/10/19/a...
1/2 What a thoroughly embarrassing interview. How do you converse w peerless Arundhati Roy in September 2025 & not utter a peep abt her October 2024 cri de cœur PEN Pinter Prize award speech? NYT continues to disgrace itself on these issues. www.nytimes.com/audio/app/20...
Exactly. Their ideology is craving power. Fetterman & Torres are their avatars. A few have scruples. Most don’t. And they’ve served corporations & oligarchs to degree base became disgusted, handing gov to Trump/GQP. Gaza carnage & Biden claque fraud on public define them: no bottom—moral sewer rats.
Plenty of stupidity to go around here. Rule of law spiral continues to tighten.
Truly looney tunes: “we’ve found burn bags of evidence tucked away in the back of safes & random offices,” in era when everything is digitized—& not just Russia “hoax:” also election “fraud.” This madman is being indulged by sycophants he’s appointed. (No paywall.) www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...
It wld be hilarious fodder for a satirical movie if it weren’t our actual dystopian reality, living in a country led by a narcissistic, immoral, devious craver of adulation however undeserved. This man is blowing up our democracy & likely the whole world.
Maher has always been a total idiot. He cldn’t define communism if his life depended on it. That this racist, bigoted, misogynist clown has any platform at all is an indictment of HBO & our society.
This is really happening? smhid (No paywall.) www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/w...
P.S. Must be emphasized: if our courts & disciplinary authorities are not going to enforce ethical rules in cases where attorneys engage in egregious behavior, we might as well shred the rules & openly embrace the law of the jungle.
And therein lies rub: if, as alleged, this is blanket order to appeal irrespective of merits, offenders—subordinate lawyers & supervisors—shld face severe remedies: *courts & disciplinary authorities must act.* This passage shows alleged offenders know it: *time for discovery followed by hearing.*
With all the deranged lunacy & idiocy pursued by Trump & henchmen, impossible to award first prize. But insane & suicidal assault on global efforts to fight climate emergency are a contender. (No paywall.) Truly is straight out of Idiocracy—we’re doomed.🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/c...
There was also press conference in first term when Morgan Lewis lawyer Sheri Dillon beclowned herself by helping deceive entire country w “folders” containing Trump “docs”—all blank—“showing” Trump assets going into “blind trust.” Perfect metaphor for man whose entire biz & political model=fraud.
Remarkable. Thank you.
💯
A people facing genocide perpetrated with our aid can't come to the UN general meeting. Makes perfect sense. (In a just world, dozens of our politicians & other officials wld be at The Hague in orange jumpsuits—& Marco Rubio wld be at Abu Ghareib.)
I know it's a digression, but it's so jarring to read "Randy Mastro, the city’s first deputy mayor." Stark reminder how Mastro shilled for Christie during bridge-gate, Adams tried & failed to get him named city counsel, & Adams then snuck him in as "first deputy mayor." Always a clown show w Adams.
This is so pathetic & stupid when you remember how the authorities claimed that the murder of Muslims Deah Barakat, his wife, Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha, & her sister, Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, in February of 2015, was over a parking space dispute.
Of course it’s Ginia Bellafante who gets shut down, among the best, bravest, most fearlessly independent reporters NYT has. smh
Like the Supreme Court FedSoc cabal, only they’re not open about it.
Ritchie Torres: “Goody! More genocide dollars for me!” Same with Jeffries, Schumer, Fetterman, & the other monsters who think any of us are going to forget.
1/2 Sigh. Here we go again. Monitoring ethical antics of Trump Admin is full-time job. Emil Bove alone is exhausting. But check out Judge Luttig passages for reminder it often doesn’t start w Trump: he just takes abuses to higher level, brinksmanship. (No paywall.) www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/u...
Another redline he’ll cross: fraudster who conned & bilked way to top (fake university, real estate fraud, fake net worth, fake mogul on tv show) now running pyramid scheme from WH wants mother of all cons: ability to manipulate interest rates & fake economic “growth.” bsky.app/profile/theb...
Our President, Lord Farquaad, exacting petty vengeance one enemy at a time.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
1) Very same procedures cld be vetted by humans: goal is to use this as AI screw-the-patient gateway drug. 2) If you’ve ever experienced rational healthcare system, such as in Japan, to endure US system is to be in constant state of rage. 3) Life in Dumbassistan: *we keep voting for this idiocy.*
This is what it’s come to: government by preening, narcissistic, over-the-hill jock wannabes. The pair are cringeworthy. We elected & are led by idiots. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/25/s...
3/3 Integrity requires adding: this is why I believe US v Trump (immunities case) was correct—not to protect Trump, but to protect Obama/Biden *from Trump.* Sotomayor dissent was dubious: imagine Trump/Bondi using James/Bragg tactics on Biden? Also, applies *only* to official acts.
2/3 Here’s French 2024 piece correctly decrying Bragg prosecution of Trump: Dem partisans did no favors cheering this miscarriage (now exposed by NY appellate decision). (No paywall.) We’re all hostage to shameful law enforcement abuses/partisan prosecution arms race. www.nytimes.com/2024/05/19/o...
1/3 Am not a David French fan, but this is must-read, on weaponization of DOJ by Trump. (No paywall.) NB: No one mentions conflicts of interest burdening Trump’s personal/criminal lawyers, *now adverse to US:* they shld be DQ’d on related matters (& so shld Trump). www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/o...
Makes such sense. After all, we funded Assad, shilled for him at UN, gave him standing ovations at congress, rationalized his mass murder of children & civilians, & otherwise abetted his crimes against humanity.
🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ (We need a bang-head-against-wall emoji, faced with 4YRS of an administration populated by deranged loons).
She has a history of selling her office.
Here's a more apt one, paraphrased: "We were much further out than you thought, And not waving, but drowning."
How much longer will this continue? WTAF is wrong with our country, supporting this? I’ve stopped railing daily against this ongoing crime against humanity. But sometimes I think I’m losing my mind.
Such a mystery why the Democrats lost to the antichrist, *twice.* bsky.app/profile/lowr...
Jake Sullivan’s interview yesterday.
This is why our democracy will fall: only the Dems can save it. But it is impossible for many of us to support a party led by genocidal monsters. This paralysis on the left put the fascists in power & will likely keep them there. Fetterman. Jeffries. Torres. Schumer. Harris. Biden. They ended us.
2/2 In fact, query whether Trump Gang can even allow election loss now, given the consequences that await: accountability for massive crypto fraud, attys losing licenses (& livelihoods), weaponization of law enforcement payback, & more. Trump Gang may already be cornered & forced to steal elections.
1/2 Which is why Trump needs a provocation to deploy military against citizens opposing him, a Reichstag fire. I surmise it will be attacks on ICE. Even if indicia of fascism are not entirely present now, we’re sliding towards it—& next elections will show if he’s ready to accept loss: *he’s not.*
I’m sure those sneaky MS-13 gang members arrested by the brave ICE superheroes were only pretending to risk their lives putting out fires but were actually dealing drugs to fellow firefighters, raping white women, & eating ppl’s pets. (We truly live in Dumbassistan.)
Beloved violinist? Man, beloved tomato pickers, deliveristas, housekeepers, construction workers, & more: Dems shld fight battle by reminding frothing-at-mouth idiots that our immigrant neighbors keep our economy operating & no one is eating anyone’s pets.

This kind of menace confidently prescribed bloodletting in the past (when he wasn’t giving expert testimony to convict witches).
J6 is as near-mirror as one cld find for Beerhall Putsch including faux victimhood of perpetrators followed by their galvanization as force in horror that followed. Slow-moving freight coming right at us. I wish I were an alarmist crackpot instead of someone who just sees this for what it is.
This is a crime against humanity.
I hate these stupid polls. How about “Ending all of the killing & promoting peace, security, & dignity for all” as an option?
Thank you, FedSoc-controlled Supreme Court, for making this American Exceptionalism possible.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Paid shill Maalouf (or whoever is hiding behind that moniker) shld attend some of the church sermons I’ve heard: pure bigotry & incitement against Muslims/Arabs (& to a lesser extent Jews & Catholics).
I can imagine what else they’re hiding: participation in speculative crypto scams, some run out of WH.
Everything this administration touches turns to garbage. Everything.
The president who cares so much about fighting antisemitism is threatening to imprison a nonagenarian Jewish Holocaust survivor, because of an antisemitic conspiracy that attributes all liberal political movements to the hand of a cabal of wealthy Jews. You know, fighting antisemitism.
That too. Actually, mainly that.

Right, an Executive Order suspending the First Amendment, of course that will fly.🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Jeffries is seeking Mamdani’s endorsement, trying desperately to stay in office, right?🤔
The unbridled stupidity continues as President Big Mac & Fries—like your uncle at Thanksgiving—has all the answers: “Just put the criminals to death!” Now watch our worthless Sup Court FedSoc cabal *again* endorse irrational & arbitrary state killing spree, like the 13 rushed executions in Trump I.
🎯
It’s remarkable how Cuomo & Adams have been rendered desperate harlequins by their own venal stupidity & corruption & the basic decency of a squeaky clean whippersnapper who manages to get NYers—*NYers*—to enjoy a scavenger hunt. Mamdani now can just let these corrupt buffoons campaign for him.
JFC. He said the quiet part out loud.
Our tax dollars in action.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I shudder at the monstrousness—but it’s the same colossal stupidity & cruelty Trump is pursuing here & of course it provides path for execrable sewer rat Farage to crawl out of hole & slither towards power—& in UK as here, a worthless opposition party paves the way: Labour & Dems, fascism’s BFFs.👍🏽

Krasner really is a king—& has faced fierce opposition from Pennsylvania’s worthless establishment Democrats (epitomized by Josh Shapiro).
