Admin has played its hand so poorly from the day in march they deported him contrary to orders to today that he actually may see freedom (US promised that would never happen) at least temporarily.

My problem with getting rid of Trump before his term is up is then we'd have Vance. I think he might actually be worse.

Trump hired
Loyalists with no skills so they would not force him out with the 25th amendment! I do not see this happening at all!

Because Republicans.

They choose to keep this demented monster in office.

The 2025 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to María Corina Machado, the Venezuelan opposition leader who has become a symbol of democratic resistance against an increasingly authoritarian regime, even as she has been forced into hiding and barred from holding public office. https://wapo.st/42AcHaX

Chris Murphy @chrismurphyct.bsky.social · 2d

Just bone chilling. And when the imprisonment of critics is combined with his offer to enrich and immunize his loyalists, this is how democracies die fast.

But it's still our choice. Don't let him silence you.

Buc-ees in Texas.

It’s not a tourist destination, folks.
It’s a Greg “Fascist” Abbott destination. You know, the sycophant invading other states at 🤡’s beck and call?

For the love of freedom, stop going there. Other stores sell roasted nuts and gas.
Promise.

Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.

The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other states—and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into another—is extremely dangerous.
