This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

someone should tell Trump they don't give the Peace Prize to people who blow up boats and murder those on high seas nor to those who deploy military against their own people. NEVER.

I'm cohosting a fundraiser in the DMV area next week for @drannieandrews.com, who's scheduled to perform a LindseyGrahamectomy on the United States Senate next year. If you're interested, you can DM Annie's finance director, @hreneeharvey.bsky.social, for the contribution/RSVP link.

This powerful JB Pritzker response to Trump's lawless threats is another reminder of what I tried to argue this morning: Pritzker understands Stephen Miller's theory of this moment, and he's responding accordingly:

Without provocation, masked federal agents indiscriminately shoot peaceful protesters with rubber bullets from the rooftop of the Portland ICE facility.

The simple truth is that Trump is a criminal. Now he and his accomplices are back in power, and they’re using that power to smear the honest agents and prosecutors who investigated them. www.thebulwark.com/p/bondi-host...

The attorney general came to the Hill to deliver a message to Democrats: Your ‘oversight’ couldn't matter to us less.

We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it.

But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan.

Here's a 🧵of the speech. It's important.

So yesterday a reporter asked Donald Trump about the writ of habeas corpus, and he had no idea what it was.

"I don't know," he said. "I'd rather leave that to Kristi."

Well, It turns out Sen. Hassan asked Kristi Noem about it in May, and this was Noem's response:

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus?

NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country

HASSAN: That's incorrect

"Garbage" is far too kind a description of what the Washington Post's ed page has become.

- Indicting political rivals
- Suppressing dissent
- Rewriting history

These are all chapters in the authoritarian playbook, and Donald Trump is following them step by step. Now is not the time to stand on the sidelines; it’s time to make your voice heard.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
