News reports say he's gonna indict Josh Bolton next week. He's a war criminal for sure, but it will be on some bullshit charges. Wild shit happening in the DOJ.

Just to be clear, racist dog murderer Kristi Noem once accused President Biden of trying to federalize the National Guard which is EXACTLY what the totalitarian orange felon is doing by making them his personal army to instill chaos and promote fear/violence. Fuck fascism.

SCOTUS gave Trump the gift of immunity.
Does not extend to his ICE Stormtroopers on the streets or to the guards in the towers.
They wouldn't understand the ongoing deception no matter how hard you tried to explain.
Trump ,on the other hand,understands and laughs as they do his illegal bidding.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

Today, I signed a series of bills that close gaps in maternal and prenatal care, improve health outcomes and access to child care resources, and protect vulnerable women.

Women in California deserve the services and resources they need to live full, self-determined lives.

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

It’s really great to be able to drop your ballot in a mailbox and 24 hours later get both an email and a text confirming it was received. The sort of voting efficiency the GOP loathes.

The President of the United States is a child rapist & batshit crazy malignant narcissist…

He doesn’t want to go to jail so he never wants to leave office…

He is trying to foment civil war so he can evolve a police state & forego elections…

BECAUSE. HE. IS. A. CHILD. RAPIST.

There it is: $20 billion for Argentina at the same time they’re taking markets away from our farmers.

But no $ for health insurance for Americans?

Day 11 of the Republican Shutdown.

Donald Trump is back on the golf course.

House Republicans have cancelled votes for a third straight week.

And Democrats are continuing the fight to protect your healthcare.
