The Trump media ban is revelatory. Of course what Trump has done violates the constitution. But note that no official refused to implement it- violating their oaths of office to us. Tells you everything you need to know - and worry about in the administration’s response to the midterm elections.

EXCLUSIVE: Ten years ago, David Michael Levin was convicted of hacking into government election websites. Now, he appears to have been hired by the Trump DOJ to...wait for it...monitor elections.

Exclusive: Trump DOJ appears to have hired lawyer convicted of hacking election sites to check ‘integrity’
Levin’s involvement in election monitoring could offer a hint of the kind of personnel who will staff the operation this fall, when the DOJ has said it will send 1,000 monitors to the polls.

OK forget about what I said yesterday - THIS is the absolute worst picture of Trump ever taken. So for fuck’s sake, out of basic human decency, do not retweet it and accidentally expose more people to it. Fuckface would be devastated.

@jenpsaki.bsky.social The reason POTUS is trying to silence retired military leaders is because he doesn't want them speaking out when he sends the military into the streets, after he has abolished voting or refuses to leave once he's lost.
