20 ARMED men bust into your home. They claim they’ve got a search warrant.

They make you stand in the rain w/your 3 daughters in their underwear.

They seize your phones, laptops, your cash life savings.

The suspects listed on the warrant? They don’t live there anymore.

This video is for all US citizens who are currently overwhelmed by Trump's more than 200 executive orders.

THIS should be retweeted to the MAX.

I never saw a more helpful video.

(It's about two minutes long. It's worth a lot.)

Elon Musk’s involvement in Wisconsin has turned what could have been a sleepy off-year election into a race with incredible national significance.

“The Wisconsin Supreme Court race is the first referendum on Musk-ism."

Read @ariberman.bsky.social's dispatch.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court election is a referendum on Elon Musk
“We'll find out whether Musk's millions are more powerful than the fury that Musk provokes among voters.”

Big deal (and not unexpected):

U.S. intelligence community assessment of Venezuelan TdA gang connections to Maduro regime "stand starkly at odds" with Trump assertions in #AlienEnemiesAct Proclamation and at odds with DOJ claims in court filings!

In Deportations, Trump Tied Gang to Venezuela’s Government. Intelligence Contradicts Him.
To invoke wartime deportation powers, President Trump asserted that Venezuela’s government controls a gang. U.S. intelligence analysts think that is not true.

Judging by today’s Russian papers, Moscow’s rather pleased with Donald Trump. One paper: “Trump is ready to make significant concessions to Russia.” Another: “Events are developing in the right direction: right & beneficial for Russia.” #ReadingRussia

The lawsuit, filed by Elias Law Group on behalf of the three national Democratic committees, challenges an expansive executive order Trump issued earlier this month that would give him unprecedented power over key regulatory agencies that were designed to operate without direct White House control.

As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

1/ The nascent Tesla boycott movement got me thinking back to the 80s anti-apartheid movement. How it took off and literally changed the world.

If the South African apartheid regime could be brought down, perhaps one South African oligarch could be? www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Elon Musk, apartheid, and America's new boycott movement
If you think mass protests can’t combat evil, remember what we did in the 1980s.

Tate left the US (and UK) because he thought it would be easier to get away with (multiple) crimes somewhere else. Pretty compelling evidence that the US federal government is now an anti-American criminal enterprise.
Andrew Tate being allowed to come to the U.S. and avoid facing trial for sex trafficking in Romania is beyond stomach-churning. This man is a HUGE influencer and uses his platform/following to further abuse women who have accused him. Now he won’t face justice, reaffirming his lies to his followers

During Trump's first term, the country’s 23 Dem state AGs notched key legal victories but in an improvised, reactive way.

This time around, they had a plan.

1. On Wednesday, Trump posted a music video on social media promoting his plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza of Palestinians & redevelop the area into a luxury resort destination

It was a troll, but his plan to "clean out" Gaza and turn it into a luxury destination "better than Monaco" is not a joke
