Well, give them a break. After all, they're all very tired from becoming suddenly irresistable to women a month ago and spending all their time with their new Chinese and Russian "girlfriends"

A lot of people assumed Corey Booker stopped talking after he broke the filibuster record but he's actually still going. At this moment he's explaining that we never would have had a Fast and the Furious franchise without the trailblazing Gone in 60 Seconds starring Nic Cage

Does the deployment of the Insurrection Act allow the President to restrict travel or outlaw the sale of guns and ammo?

If he does, are their legal constraints (assuming he complies with the courts) to prevent him from deploying this in more than a very narrow limited way nominally on border control, or does doing so give him carte blanche…

@lawfare.bsky.social Per this. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential... there is a possibility that Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 on or about April 20. (See Sec. 6b.)

You may be fearing your 401k is no longer enough for you to retire. But with all the cuts to NIH and Medicare you also won't live as long. So the policies are integrated.

Can't wait for them to impose a tariff on those bazillion dollar B2 Stealth bombers whenever they come back to the US. "Oh, that's crazy stupid, that would never happen" you say? My reply? "DOGE"

They are afraid of losing money. Guess how much money (and attorney jobs) they'll lose if the Trump coup succeeds and there is no need for them at all?

I can't tell if they're cowards or just comfortably numb lounging in a cloud of normalcy bias. In the mean time they are normalizing Trump/Musk/DOGE and validating what they are doing just by their deafening silence.

Early voting has started in Wisconsin, where Elon Musk is trying to buy another election. Winning on April 1 would secure the liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court through 2028. Help us get out the vote for workers’ rights champion Susan Crawford: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Musk's PAC offers $100 to Wisconsin voters in pitch against "activist judges"

The move reflects how Musk is throwing his considerable wealth behind Trump's priorities — including an upcoming election in Wisconsin for a crucial seat on the state's Supreme Court.

Watching Schumer. We're doomed. He has normalized Trump/Musk/MAGA/DOGE and this coopted version of SCOTUS. He has zero clue what we're up against. I want my AOC @aoc.bsky.social

I tried to tell him basically "hey, don't worry, there's no way they're coming after you guys" but he wasn't having any of it. He said, "you can't say that with any certainty and neither can anyone else". Regardless of your politics, this level of fear is not a Good Thing.

He came over, both scared and very angry. He'd just ordered an AK style rifle and a bunch of ammo. He said "I'm not the only one doing this. If they come for us again, we're not going quietly this time."

You know who hasn't forgotten? Those whose parents, aunts, and uncles were placed in those prisons. I know one of those people. Happens to be a veteran, to add to the complexity level here.

There is no reason to think that Trump will stop at deporting some "evil" group of Venezuelans. He has already threatened to imprison journalists, for just one example.
