The lies Pam Bondi and Stephen Miller just told about Abrego Garcia on national TV... ...I have no words for them. I am sick of calling things obscene or deranged. These are obviously evil people charting an obviously evil course for our country. The idea of Hell was devised for people like this.

The televised Oval Office meeting with Bukele is mockery. They’re mocking the press, their opposition, the courts, and the entire concept of justice. They’re mocking everyone who isn’t them. The abuser’s playbook yet again.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

What a contrast between how our allies get treated versus little dictators like Bukele. Not a word about him not wearing a suit either, as he petitions the US to expand his country’s mercenary penal colony by sending him more money.

FORMERREPUB.bsky.social reposted

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

The 🍊Slimeball thoroughly screwed the middle & poor to give the millionaires/billionaires a OPEN FREEWAY TO BUY STOCKS at rock bottom #s then he started his golf weekend TODAY.Another $3M plus 4 day VACATION! AMANA,CISCO,UPS,BLOCK,GOLDMAN SACHS,CHEWY, BP,CHEVRON,WAYFAIR, & MOREannounced layoffs!

Ron DeSantis has just made a trip to Montana & Idaho to pressure them into joining the call for a Constitutional Convention.This is very troubling & Scary. I honestly don't know what can be done but something has to STOP THEM from rewriting the Constitution & making the US a kingdom!

I have a great idea for cuts from DOGE... The 🍊POS is again at Mara Largo golfing. Let's set his trips there to once quarterly. Then there is the multimillion dollar trip that the Vance's & Waltz took to Greenland to stay for THREE HOURS! Both are examples of flagrant waste of taxpayer money!

Remember a couple weeks ago when I warned about MORON RFK Jr telling people 2 take Cod Liver oil(it has Vitamin A in it)or 2 take Vitamin A?SURPRISE SURPRISE TX hospitals R now treating children who have liver damage due 2 large doses of Vitamin A!He doesn't care.He believes in Eugenics.Look it up.

We put up with Repubs calling Pres Sleepy Joe,Dementia Joe & other nastiness until they convinced a voter turnout in the favor of the FASCIST MORON we now have.They said Biden wasn't running the country.I would rather have whoever they think was running the US then over the Fuckheads in control now!

VA Rep Don Boyer was hearing from his constituents about the problems with SS.SS authorities told him Wed was the best day with shortest wait time.So he called himself.A recorded message told him the wait would be a 120 minutes to call back & then disconnected. TEARING apart SSA from the inside!

Executive order...Muskrat has been given the ability/right 2 access EVERY states voter rolls with the express purpose of purging MILLIONS of Americans from voter rolls! Won't do U any good 2 register Repub because he is granted access 2 HOW U previously voted.Dems a huge portion of us will B out.

Immediately the🍊POS rescinded $35 insulin as well as the drugs that Medicare was able to negotiate with Big Pharma. Repubs in Congress are pushing forward the ability for Big Pharma to operate offshore with a $140 Billion tax break. Americans pay the highest price for drugs anywhere in the world.🧵

3yrs ago Muskrat bought Twitter for $44 billion. Muskrat owned xAI just bought Twitter(X) for $33 billion.X current valuation is $9.4 billion.The bank sold the outstanding X debt of $12 billion to an undisclosed party. Muskrat says xAI is valued at $80 billion.In Nov 2024 it was valued at $50B.🧵

In FOUR months it gained a $30B valuation? Muskrat eliminated the agency that oversees such transactions so nothing could B scrutinized. My skeptical side says there's something rotten about the entire transaction Muskrats taking over the country quite efficiently 1 move at a time aided by 🍊POS

6pm local news... Everyday they show stocks of local interest EVERY 1 of them was a great big RED DOWN arrow. I'm expecting my next dividend check 2 B accompanied with a letter asking me 2 give them money.I know that won't happen but it wouldn't surprise me.GREED is running the US starting in WH.

🍊 Slimeball said today MUST HAVE Greenland for the US security.We WOULDN'T need security if the STUPID SOB hadn't pushed every alliance we had away in favor of Putin & Kim. If I were Greenland I would IMMEDIATELY kick the US forces stationed out of the country.Greenlanders today "we R afraid."

To be clear, the destruction of the U.S. is the result of putting a deranged convicted felon who would fail a security clearance back in office instead of in jail and then allowing him to appoint a cabinet of unqualified criminal goons who would also fail a security clearance.

US Trump regime official and walking meme JD Vance forced to land at Pituffik Base in Greenland where he interrupted and forcibly sat with young soldiers during their lunch time. He gave an awkward speech met by silence, blank faces, and awkward laughter. #standwithgreenland

Wikler: Musk deleted that tweet because he knows that that tweet was a crime, and it's still a crime in Wisconsin law. It is plain as day. You cannot promise something of value in order to induce someone to vote or refrain from voting. This is Wisconsin statute, and it's a felony to cross that line.

America’s raging inequality is on display. The corrupting power of wealth and giant corporations has never been more clear. Billionaires are running Washington and unleashing a tsunami of big money and legalized bribery. Serious question: Where the hell are the Democrats?

It really is critical that people accept this. You don’t have to understand it, just accept it. The point is literally for kids and people to die. Now, is it foolish that they think THEY are the genetically superior? Sure. But eugenics is definitionally narcissistic and dumb.

jamelle@jamellebouie.net

RFK is a eugenics freak first and foremost and everything falls downstream from that. he *wants* excess deaths. he thinks that only the "fit" should survive.

As a Missouri resident, I could see everything that’s happening coming a mile away because they already did it to my state. Defunded schools, kicked kids off Medicaid, refused the will of voters, attacked marginalized communities, and sold off farmland to foreign companies. We knew.

Per White House pool: Trump has announced a deal with Skadden law firm in which the firm will provide $100 million in pro bono work that the administration approves of. “This was essentially a settlement,” Trump said.

Elon Musk has updated his post with new language apparently after being informed that his previous tweet was evidence that he was committing a state felony. Screenshots live forever.

Relatedly, did we ever get an explanation as to how russian state media was accidentally (???) in the oval office when trump and vance attacked zelensky?

Will Sommer@willsommer.bsky.social

Right-wing YouTuber Tim Pool has made it to the White House pool — someone from his “Timcast” channel will be part of today’s pool duty covering the president. Last year, DOJ revealed Pool was receiving millions of dollars from the Russian gov. Pool says he didn’t know where it was coming from.

Yesss!! We need more Democrats standing up and speaking out on behalf of our party! ✊🏽 Here’s @betoorourke.bsky.social (alongside Gov Tim Walz) with a passionate plea for Schumer to step down in front of an at-capacity town hall in Houston. We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. +…

I have been hearing from people that they have been having issues accessing their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access. Please share!

RFK Jr's move to eliminate the Administration for Community Living, which helps disabled & aging people stay at home instead of being institutionalized, is disastrous. I'm never done shouting about what my mom's institutionalization took from her & from us (so here's my @teenvogue.com piece again).

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent. Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list. This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts. It's straight out of the fascist playbook.
