Trump claps for himself at his arrival at the US Open – a denial-anxiety response to the audible boos being directed at him.

This is an old formula used by authoritarian regimes. Stoke chaos and blame scapegoats to justify the use of force.

"This is supposed to be an oversight hearing" -- Schiff helpfully ticks through all of the incriminating questions -- and there are many of them -- that Bondi refused to answer during today's hearing

The CBS takeover by Larry Ellison and Bari Weiss is the most foreboding move in a while, and I’m not saying that lightly.

It will have an effect on the 2026 elections: CBS will now lie to people and normies will believe it.

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · 14h

Pam Bondi admits she spoke to Apple to "get the ICEBlock app taken down." Sounds an awful lot like coercion to suppress disfavored speech to me. A clear violation of the 1st Amendment.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 18h

Bondi claims that the ICEBlock app was "criminal in that people were posting where ICE officers lived"

Josh Hawley's entire demeanor and world view is that of a spoiled middle school child who thinks he's untouchable.

No Josh Hawley, your white skin and position of power does not make you immune from investigation.

Wise words and hope. Thank you, Jane Goodall.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Governor Whitmer was almost kidnapped by armed thugs. Governor Shapiro‘s house was set on fire. Nancy Pelosi‘s husband was violently attacked by someone looking for her. Melissa Hortman was assassinated in her home with her husband and dog…and now this. The left is the victim, not the perpetrator.

SOUTH CAROLINA… “Judge Goodstein was walking on the beach when the fire started. Her husband, Arnie, was in the house with children and perhaps grandchildren. The family had to escape by jumping from a window or balcony...” www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

I’m. So. Tired.

I don’t just want you to pay attention to Chicago because I want you to understand our plight. I want you to see how hard people are fighting and know wtf you’re made of. We’re not just fighting for this place. This is for all of us.

"The Department of Homeland Security blatantly lied about the victim of a recent shooting committed by an ICE agent during an immigration arrest in Chicago." newrepublic.com/post/201297/...

ICE Shot a Man While Trying to Detain Him. He Had No Criminal Record.

ICE have tried to justify the fatal shooting.

Trump's government wants to cull Americans, en masse.

While 78% of Americans support extending the enhanced premium tax credits for the Affordable Care Act Marketplace coverage.

End the shutdown. Healthcare is a human right. Full stop.

If your coping mechanism for authoritarianism is "I'm not an immigrant, so this won't happen to me" – you're NOT fucking coping.
