The president of the United States had his Justice Dept. raid an election office and seize ballots in order to cast doubt on an election he lost. Yet, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day.

just a reminder: if fire hydrants near where you live are buried in snow after this week’s storms, it’s a mitzvah (and a gooooood workout!) to dig out around that hydrant so fire crews can get to it faster if need be.

Great thread
I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

MAJOR: The Trump Administration has been caught lying about the D.C. shooting suspect.

The truth: He was vetted by Trump. He had a CIA badge, worked with the CIA in Afghanistan, and granted asylum by Trump in April.

You know about Trump and Zelesnkyy’s call, but have you heard about the call between Trump and the Saudi Crown Prince?

Watch my statement below. Mr. President, release the transcript.

If you are a service member or civil servant ordered to perform an operation in spite of concerns you raised about their legality, you have lawful options to blow the whistle. They do not involve leaking to the press.

Consult with qualified counsel. You can honor your Oath without breaking the law.
Boat strikes put US service members in legal jeopardy:

"Some junior officers have asked military lawyers, known as judge advocates general or JAGs, for written sign-off before taking part in strikes .... It does not appear that such memos were furnished, said one of the people."

❤️ 🇺🇸 Tyrants feared those who fed the hungry and taught the free to stand. USAID was not charity, it was conscience. On No Kings Day, America remembered what power once meant: to lift, not to rule. The fight for democracy rose wherever someone still believed we belonged to one another.

Listen to Assistant Chief Craig Dobson

This is a true police leader.

-Speaks slow and calm about upcoming event.
-Understands and relays that this is a family event like earlier No Kings protests.
-No negative statements before the event even starts
-Keeps a friendly and upbeat tone

As an aside, @andykroll.bsky.social smashes it in his portrayal of how Russell Vought built a parallel presidency. A harrowing read about the man determined to traumatize the federal workforce. Thank you!

Donald Trump and Russ Vought are using the shutdown to punish the American people who rely on programs delivered by our dedicated federal workers.

Russ Vought must come before Congress and explain to the American people why he believes he’s above the law.

There are no press releases during the shutdown, making it difficult to find this kind of news.
But the AK Air/Army National Guards, and the USCG, are conducting SAR operations. The flooding is in remote areas, and affecting primarily small villages, it appears.

Three key points:
1) The admin has been planning mass firings to begin in October since February
2) The work necessary to carry out mass firings is illegal during a shutdown, violating the Antideficiency Act, which carries a criminal penalty
3) This harms America, ridding us of talent and expertise

Mother fucker! The House has been in session only 15 days since July.

Its October!

GOP are loser slackers! Imagine if you only showed up to your job 15 days in 4 months.
They get 175k a year in salary.

"We took the freedom of speech away..." needs to be blasted across the nation.
Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

This is true, and has been since 1.0. Remember, we are millions. You don’t have to keep up and defend all. Pick your battle, laser focused. Be on deck when you’re needed to jump into other issues. We are a team. That’s what teams do. Leaders, your job is to tell us what you need, when you need it. ✊🏾
This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.
