If the Olympic athletes had said they approve of ICE and that things under Trump are great, MAGA would be applauding it. They don’t oppose athletes getting political, just athletes who hurt their feel-feels.

fwiw Andy McCarthy — conservative lawyer, Fox News legal analyst, National Review contributor, professional hater of Biden, Obama, and Democrats — is diving into Trump's corruption and acknowledged the UAE-crypto scandal alone is far worse than anything alleged about Biden

It’s not overstatement to say that some form of ethnic cleansing is where this is headed. It’s history. Governments based on lies and cruelty, racism and violence, blind allegiance to one person and rigid adherence to dogma always are. It’s called fascism. Unless we say no.

If you still think the Trump WH is being played by Russia, then the one who is being played is you. The fake negotiations, the "two weeks" delays, the threats and calls, it's all a charade. Trump has worked hand in glove with Russia to try to force Ukraine to surrender.

If Donald Trump asked, how many House Republicans would vote to dissolve the chamber and let the president rule by emergency decree? (And how would that be any different from what's currently happening?)

Just for your situational awareness: our President and his thoroughly corrupted DOJ are trying to imprison legislators of the opposition party for up to 20 years because they said a true thing POTUS doesn't like. We are governed by gangsters.

Voter suppression. Again, the goal is to intimidate, disenfranchise, seize, undermine, and steal the 2026 midterms and 2028 election. They’ve checked every other box in authoritarian behavior.

Part of the reason I respect Thomas Massie is because he’s standing up to Trump while running for re-election. A lot of these people only find courage after they leave or announce retirement—Thom Tillis, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Don Bacon, etc.

I once appeared on TV convention coverage with Rev. Jackson. Just the two of us, analyzing speeches. I didn't know what to expect -- he was a legend. What a delight! He was funny, kind, and incisive. As generous a listener as he was a talented talker. I'll never forget it.

Trump could have written and submitted a tariff bill for enactment by Congress. It happened often in the 19th and early 20th centuries. He didn't do that, because the point of the exercise was arbitrary presidential power - and the corruption possibilities that flow from

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics. "It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

The law matters. The law, here, is King. The law is not always on the side of the right or the left. Thank God we have judges who still understand that.

This is the point. I have zero problem if Trump or Vance want to be there and party. Hell, send a Senator if you can't make it. But this dude is the head of the FBI. That some people don't get the difference is the result of tribalism and a government of fucking content creators.
