🚨⚖️📚Trump’s team is paying furloughed troops with money taken from a 2-year-old budget—an illegal move under the Anti-Deficiency Act. Heather Cox Richardson says it bypasses Congress’s power of the purse, the same principle behind the Revolution. A quiet but massive step toward authoritarian rule.

Trump and his grifting family needs to launder the billions in bribe they continue to receive in crypto!! What do you think his sons have been doing. They are doing shakedown of countries and corporations on tariffs and other favors. This bitcoin and crypto order allows them to launder those bribe.

This whole thing is to distract all of us from the passing of the "One big beautiful bill." All while they turn us fully into an authoritarian regime.

If only we had warned folks before the election that the real plan wasn’t border security…it was mass deportation in the interior, federalizing the National Guard, ripping people out of homes, families, jobs, and schools.

Oh wait…we did.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

Look what I found when I searched "ICE uniform" in Google Shopping.

None of us have any way of knowing if the "ICE agent" pushing you into a car, isn't just some unbalanced vigilante into cosplay. These are very dangerous times.

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

Why another protest? What is it going to accomplish? Shouldn’t we be [insert alternate tactic] instead?

These are good-faith questions, and they stem from very reasonable concerns. So let’s take a step back and talk about the role of a peaceful mass mobilization like No Kings.

Trump has wanted a police state with himself sitting at the top as its undisputed boss since his first administration.

The standoff in L.A. shows how truly eager he is to turn America’s vast warmaking powers inward on his domestic foes and critics.
