New York Attorney General Letitia James @newyorkstateag.bsky.social · 14h

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

(This shutdown is making the case for #MedicareForAll better than we ever could)

🤦🏻‍♀️ he talks in circles. What he is saying is they consider the protests to be an "Incitement to Imminent Lawless Action: Speech designed to provoke immediate illegal activity." He's saying that the people are trying to overthrow his regime. Like his followers did on January 6th. 🙄

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."

It was intentional. He is the puppet setting up for those waiting on the sidelines. They are a much larger threat to democracy.

This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. These are the good guys.

🚨 This is protecting the American people. “Full force” is not defined by the military. More of this!

Anyone else remember that old SNL sketch in which Jon Lovitz is playing Michael Dukakis and Dana Carvey is playing George H.W. Bush and they're debating and in mid-debate Dukakis turns to the camera and says, "I can't believe I'm losing to this guy"?

Yeah, *that*

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running don’t.

And Speaker Mike Johnson won’t let the House come back to work. So basically they’re on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks.

Did I get that right?

Every day is worse than the one before. When will it stop? I'm not interested in living out the life that Margaret Atwood dreamed up in the 80's.

I wish all air traffic controllers would call in sick for a few days. Shut down the airports. See how long it takes Republicunts to come back. The 🍊💩🤡 won't be able to golf and Cosplay Kristi will be stuck in Portland.
