Oh, no! You shouldn’t reveal the location of antifa’s HQ!

How much does Fox News pay if you go on one of their shows and claim to be a "Former ANTIFA Member"?

Because I'm ready to spill tea on the Real-Housewives-level shenanigans that go down in the 72-story ANTIFA corporate headquarters. Especially by the lab assistants on the Molotov Cocktail floor.

I guess Kash Patel will not be investigating and Pam Bondi and Howard Lutnick will not be pushing the 25th?

Hi. I’d like to report a deranged and delusional man in the White House who’s inciting violence and represents a danger to public safety. Can law enforcement please handle this matter?

People keep saying that Trump is prosecuting his political enemies but that’s not what this is.

She’s not a political enemy, she’s a prosecutor who charged and tried a criminal. The criminal got away and now has the power to exact revenge. A mobster ordering a hit. That’s all this is!

It’s hard to overstate how grotesque is the prosecution of Letitia James. I hope John Roberts—who unleashed this malignant, vengeful career criminal on our beloved country—is enjoying Trump’s utter abuse of power and trashing of justice and the rule of law.

Have the Trump psychotics found the leader of antifa yet? Are they aware that Gen Eisenhower, that noted anti-fascist, is no longer with us and can’t be arrested? Perhaps they can dig up Winston Churchill & bring him to ICE HQ?

Anyone who lived in NY in the ‘90s knew Trump was a con artist & a two-bit hustler who bankrupted businesses over and over. There’s a reason 9 out of 10 people in Manhattan didn’t vote for him. But Mark Burnett convinced millions of reality TV-watching Americans he was a successful businessman.

Pam Bondi’s defensive attacks against Senate Democrats questioning her was not the flex she thinks it was. All it did was vividly point out how she has abandoned Justice Dept. independence to serve the desires of her authoritarian boss.

As @marcelias.bsky.social notes, we must take seriously a White House occupant who is threatening our fellow citizens.

Marc Elias @marcelias.bsky.social · 1d

Donald Trump is calling for the jailing of his political opponents in Chicago. His DOJ lackeys have already indicted a NJ Congresswoman for conducting ICE facility oversight and James Comey. John Bolton's house was raided.

We must treat these latest threats seriously and all stand up against them.

Finally, a clear message explaining what’s worth fighting for against Trump Republicans and their cruel, sociopathic cuts.

Charlotte Clymer @charlotteclymer.bsky.social · 2d

"So, Democrats have three words for this: no fucking way. It's literally life or death. We will not let Republicans blow up our health care system."

This is, hands down, the best comms work Chuck Schumer has done in YEARS. Surprisingly good.

There are lots of cultists who actually believe Trump’s lie that he’s deploying the military because he wants to stop crime.

Trump is ignoring a judge's ruling, ignoring the sovereign right of governors to deploy their National Guard, ignoring the truth, lying about violence to justify his invasions.
