@chrislhayes.bsky.social @arimelber.bsky.social - I know military leaders have the right/duty to decline to follow illegal/unconstitutional orders. But I don't expect military leaders to be legal/constitutional experts. Are there experts they consult with when faced with questionable orders?
@msnbc.com Why the fuck are you letting John Kasich spew this nonsense on your air?
This isn’t education, it’s indoctrination. The Trump administration gutted PBS and NPR not to save money, but to control the narrative. In their place, PragerU is moving into more classrooms. Already in Florida, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Idaho schools.
Eh. In a vacuum, sure. But when you're also trying to keep your nice big US ally from abandoning you amid a global outcry...
Get your sandwiches ready, everyone!

I don't appreciate that he has stopped thanking us for our attention to this matter.
This... it's all about priorities
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu: “Silence in the face of oppression is not an option. The U.S. Attorney General asked for a response by today. So here it is…Stop attacking our cities to hide your administration's failures.”
That's how you do it.

I wish posts about Ukrainian art drew as much attention as the war. Still, I keep showing you beauty. Vadym Petrov, Blooming Tree, 1993
Co-deputy Director? Is that like Assistant to the Regional Manager?
I'm the only one who can stand up to trump!!... right after I pop his teat out my mouth.
100%. Also... where can I get an Antifa bazooka please?
The craziest thing about this meeting in Anchorage is that trump is in the Epstein Files.
Stephen Miller Tears Up As Son Says First 14 Words
Well they're into incremental change OF history and tradition. Close.
Important.
I hope your community is never occupied like LA or DC. But if it is, you’ll quickly find that people don’t take kindly to having their city under federal control. And folks are just getting started. 📌 Protesters gathered near a checkpoint in the U Street corridor in Northwest Washington.
I think real focus on this would, hypothetically, come down the line. Not necessarily because of a personal dislike of gay people, but for want of a new bogeyman.
Greetings from Kyiv, where it is calm and warm. I’ve had my warcoffee and dialogues with war. War: Mood? Me: Oh, this mood, built from cubes of sun and determination. War: Okay. Live. Me: With your darkest permission.
I went to DC and saw who the President, Defense Secretary, DOJ senior advisor, and HHS Secretary were. So forgive me if I doubt that crime is down.
Egads! Not the dreaded WHEELIE!!
Because the president is now immune to essentially everything as long as it's official business, right? Even if it's a crime it's not criminal.
Man, if you're going to deploy a less-lethal hoagie at the Man, you gotta check traffic behind you first. Rookie.
She means "poor crime".
He looks like that sack of potatoes you forgot that you bought last year.
None of them could rent from trump in the 70s?
I know it's partly because of his ridiculous love of "central casting", but I'll never get over how much nearly everyone in the trump administration looks like a comic book villain.
"HISTOY"
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth reposted the video profiling Christian Nationalist Pastor Doug Wilson, who opposes same-sex marriage.
Everyone should go watch Chernobyl.
Don’t let this die. Keep elevating this.
A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda. This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵

I put very little into her definition of "disturbing".
This is the US Constitution page @ the Library of Congress Sections 9 and 10 have been removed 9 includes habeas corpus, the courts' review of unlawful detention & imprisonment This gov't can't change the Constitution w/ sneaky editing, but it's a new low: constitution.congress.gov/constitution/
Dems should fight on every front. If Texas steals 5 seats, Dem states should redistrict 30 GOP members out of their districts. We should insist DOJ release the entire Epstein File. Not only shouldn't we bring knives to a gun fight, if they bring pistols, we should bring machine guns.
For all those rightwingers crying about how “DeMoCrAtS GerRyMaNdEr ToO,” just ask them if they support a nationwide ban on gerrymandering. We do. They don’t. They’re not mad at the concept of gerrymandering, they’re mad that they don’t get to be the only party wielding it anymore.
Have we tried this approach just to be sure?
Yeah this was a fascinating listen.
And you can rest The West Wing squarely above those others (all shows I love).
Venezuelan men the U.S. deported to El Salvador are starting to speak out. The Trump administration sent over 230 of them, many with no criminal record, to CECOT, a brutal prison. No charges. No convictions. Just locked away in a place one man said “wasn’t meant for humans.” (1 of 2)
Does this fall under waste, fraud, or abuse? Also... seems a waste for someone who's supposed to leave in 3 years.
Let's also look at the 2024 results while we're at it...
All things not good.

It's crazy to me that after all this time there's still several professional journalists mispronouncing "Ghislaine". It's pronounced "CHĪLD•sex•abūser".

@indivisible.org @50501movement.bsky.social @podsaveamerica.crooked.com Plan a massive rally/protest for the day that the House returns (Sep 1?). Speaker Johnson had them leave early to avoid an Epstein vote hoping that we would move on during their absence. Make it so it's THE news story that day.
Stop calling people like Trump, Bukele, and Maduro "strong men". It's inaccurate and feeds their egos. They enact unpopular and inhumane policies by force since they can't win the hearts of the people. They use big sticks because they have tiny carrots. They're not strong men. They're Power Cowards.
Fuck #CBS. Cancelling our #Paramount+ account. youtu.be/AuqEZx6TmfI?...
I can't log in. Says it's at max capacity. Which - yay, but also...
I've thought for a long time that as soon as people can vote for officials the same way they vote for American Idol things are going to change.
His level of concern is just a blush more than Susan Collins'.
There should be a change to the federal court system where like 5 or 6 randomly selected circuit courts together can override a #SCOTUS ruling. @whitehouse.senate.gov make it so.
Hey remember that whole "trump is in the Epstein files" thing? Hey remember that?
just say you’re a racist POS who’s mad slavery was outlawed
Same thing they did to the federal government.
Something is very wrong with this world.
That's part of everything going its way.
Forcefully stopping and detaining my constituent and interrogating him about which hospital he was born in solely because he’s Latino is blatant racism. ICE's racial profiling is terrorizing communities, targeting U.S. citizens and making us less safe. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...
BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.
Everything's bigger in Texas... especially these newborns' heads...
Does anyone think these unspeakably evil political assassinations of Democratic lawmakers would’ve occurred without the vicious permission structure erected by Trump, Vance, Rubio, and their MAGAts? www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...
Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.
The U.S. Constitution and longstanding federal law strictly limit the use of the military to police civilians. Under the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, active-duty military forces are prohibited from engaging in domestic law enforcement unless explicitly authorized by Congress or the Constitution.
Ah look at him almost believing what he's saying. Gotta drink your Kool-Aid first before you give it to others.
Oh my god we're living in Crazy People. Which, now that I type it out... yeah.
That whole stubborn "Protection" part of the EPA ..
We're literally living in an @theonion.com article.
This 30% tariff with China is the economic version of "No, no - I'm not really dying. But your mom and I are getting a divorce."
30% still feels like the house is on fire a bit. Maybe it didn't explode and take out the neighboring houses with it. But we're still gonna need the fire brigade.
There's the unbelievably brazen bribery aspect, but also - is there not a security concern with letting the President of the United States use a foreign-made and gifted airplane as Air Force One?
Good!!
Day Two
All religion not made in America like Christianity will be subject to a 200% Tariff!
Did he also bop Putin on the snout with a rolled up newspaper?
I'm sure they also meant to include Jewish, Muslim, etc. I'm sure they also meant that.
I've never seen a Defense Secretary be so defensive.
Maybe if the entire pentagon is resisting him, you know... listen to the entire pentagon.
HAHAHA
