Democrats should start now talking about how these Trump administration Toadies will have to go to jail once Trump is gone. They have to normalize it now so it doesn't seem shocking later when it happens. I.e., the Merrick Garland syndrome.

Leaders taking their troops into such forbidden cities are probably also issuing lawful orders and the troops following them are therefore following unlawful orders.

American service members are prohibited from following unlawful orders. Military leaders are also prohibited from issuing unlawful orders. Whoever is approving sending troops into cities where judges have ruled that they should not be sent is probably issuing an unlawful order.

Q: Do you agree that the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois should be in prison?

MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I like that we are moving, by fits and starts, to a new, better understanding of the current corruption of SCOTUS and how to fix it.

Good stuff here from @joshtpm.bsky.social.

I'll say this once more:

@kairyssdal.bsky.social, of public radio (APM vs NPR), giving daily lessons on putting things clearly and honestly.

Enough of this "falsely" and "without evidence" and "departure from norms" wiggle talk.

The man lies. Is deluded. Steals. And constantly breaks the law
He lied. Gotta use the word
NEW: Trump falsely suggested today that rank-and-file FBI agents fomented the Jan. 6 attack that a mob of his supporters unleashed on the Capitol, leaning into conspiracy theories as he accuses a second FBI director of committing crimes
