His slip of the tongue reveals who’s really in charge. trib.al/mIvP0yE

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

You should not control a nuclear arsenal if you cannot tell the difference between fiction and reality. The story needs to be told through the lens of mental illness
Trump has gone totally mad. It's 25th Amendment time all day, every day. He's living in a totally invented, fictional world. And he's old and in ill-health.

It's outrageous, reckless, choose your word that Republicans haven't done more to deal with this.
Trump: "The restaurants were all closing, now you can't get into a restaurant. They're opening up new restaurants. It took 12 days for us. We sent in not politically correct military. We sent them in based on merit."

The president says there are very few stores left in Portland, Oregon, and the ones that are left are made of plywood.

I know we’re numb to this, but in any other time he’d have been removed by the 25th Amendment by now
Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

"Career prosecutors determined that there was no evidence to support these charges. They were pushed out and replaced with individuals whose only qualification is their loyalty to a single man, not to the Constitution or the law. That is corruption. That is abuse of power...we must all speak out."
INBOX: National Bar Association President Ashley L. Upkins calls the charges against New York Attorney General Letitia James “unjust and dangerous” and a representation of "the continued weaponization of our nation’s justice system for political gain."

You can bet your ass I voted YES on California’s PROP 50 because fascist republicans will stop at nothing to cheat/rig elections and destroy democracy and that must be countered every time if we are to have any democratic freedoms left. Vote YES on PROP 50. 💙👊

The president does not have this power. He’s acting unconstitutionally to commit crimes against humanity— murder on the high seas.

Lest it be forgotten, the president may be immune re: official acts (assuming these are), but subordinates committing extrajudicial executions are not so entitled.
“.. it appears to justify an open-ended war against a secret list of groups, giving the president power to designate drug traffickers as enemy combatants and have them summarily killed without legal review.”

The year is 2003.

17-year-old Stephen Miller is sitting in the back of a school bus talking about torture, as in “Torture is a celebration of human life and dignity."

Miller looks directly into the camera and describes the torturing Iraqis in gruesome detail, as his peers laugh uncomfortably.

Returning to a subject I was discussing this morning on X, I think a single video like this does more to radicalize people against ICE than any loaded rhetoric any politician has ever used, and DHS should think very hard about the consequences of supporting this kind of behavior from its agents.
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Donald Trump is in the part of the process at this point....where his expectations about how much fucking much control he wants...and how much he actually has...will reflect a gap that dwarfs the Grand Canyon. America is not going to allow this authoritarian bullshit to exist.

I understand why you frame your remarks as speaking for Illinois: “Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.”

Well said.

But you’re one of the few rising to the occasion, and the times require more than speaking for your state.

Speak for America.
The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.

In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

I’ve had my disagreements with Newsom in the past but I cannot deny that he is meeting the moment here and is willing to speak with stark clarity about the danger posed by Trump and act accordingly by fighting back on redistricting
Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"

Everyone should know when you post quotes from people like Nick Fuentes and say, “I didn’t have agreeing with Nick on my bingo card,” your posts — if you have a large account — are shared in Neo-Nazi circles as a sign that their movement is growing.

Please don’t give Neo-Nazis a propaganda victory.
