This is great stuff from @jamestalarico.bsky.social, running for Senate in Texas:

“The most dangerous form of government is theocracy — because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.”

Q: Who is Mike Johnson being threatened by? I mean, if he's not bringing the House back, releasing the Epstein files ... he seems scared

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think so ... Do I think he's really up to the task? No.

Let’s be honest: there have already been several bizarre moments from Trump this morning alone that would justify invoking the 25th Amendment.

He is a seriously unwell individual.

NEW: Trump meant to send a Truth Social DM to Pam Bondi about indicting his rivals. That sounds like official business, so I'm filing a FOIA for her DMs, plus those of five other cabinet members. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/my-latest-...

My Latest FOIA: Trump's Truth Social DMs

Recently, Trump posted a message to Pam Bondi that was meant to be a direct message. I want to know what other official messages he's sending to cabinet members.

Let’s identify as ANTI-FASCIST! The right wing attack on Antifa is counting on people not knowing that Antifa means Anti-Fascist, and, as we found out with their war on “Woke” , they may succeed.
Let’s make it harder for the right….we’re Anti-Fascist, and why aren’t you?

The prosecution of Tish James is the product of a broken system that allows lawless billionaires to rule alongside corrupt politicians.

It’s as much a story of New York City as Washington, D.C.

But it's here in New York where a new era of politics will be born.

I watched a Republican member of congress state on MSM they were going to propose a resolution to honor Trump with the Nobel peace prize.

No one on the panel called him insane or corrected him on how the Nobel prize works.

Journalistic malpractice runs rampant on MSM. Every day.
