I've spent a lot of time in countries where graft and grifting are the norm and I assure you it is worth a truly immense cost to prevent that from taking hold in our society.
You do not want to live in that kind of society.
Took evidence. Not confirmed that it was destroyed, right
Apparently the Florida Bar refuses to go against lawyers holding federal appointment. But now she’s fired so…
Ethics complaints filed by law professors, former judges, legal ethics experts were dismissed before - maybe the next step is for refiling with the Florida Bar Association
Turning away the world’s best and brightest is shattering one our greatest national assets, one of the precious national treasures ensuring American children’s future.
The way things are going all the little Nazis from that event will form a line at the Treasury and US taxpayers will be forced to give them our money for “making them” act like the Nazis they are. Just like the J6’ers who lied about us, attacked our capital, and then took our money for good measure
The most disgusting people are getting paid by the American people for betraying the American people
Let's be very clear about what's going here: this is Trump using contrived and fictional litigation to pay off his retainers out of the US Treasury for alleged wrongs they suffered. It's theft. www.politico.com/news/2026/04...
It’d be nice if we could focus strategically as a nation on our own longterm stability and prosperity and not continue to waste time and resources (for decades on end) yielding the floor to Republicans waging stupid culture wars and running up the debt for the benefit of the wealthiest
A Chinese strategy paper by Wu Xinbo argues that America under Trump is an empire in a state of profound rot and decline, and this presents distinct opportunities to China. Beijing's objective should not be to attack or provoke America,
Always have an enchanted time at the California Academy of Sciences
Listen: Joined ABC Radio National in Australia today.
Unpacked Trump, World Liberty Financial, the UAE stake nobody knew about until the WSJ found it, and why 83% of a US president's stablecoin sitting at a sanctions-violating exchange is not a good thing.

Yep. You could hear the righteous anger building in her response, too. I appreciate her a lot
I would follow AOC and Lina Khan into battle
i wouldn’t put “executing facts” past them tho
Nothing to worry about, just the Heritage Foundation publishing an article on how the Republican Congress can refuse to seat Democrats www.heritage.org/election-int...
@jvl.bsky.social I read your piece on expanding the court. Yes. Any pro-democracy coalition in this age must rediscover boldness
We should reclaim Voltaire’s Écrasez l’infâme as the cause of ending abuse of power, religious intolerance, superstition, and fanaticism everywhere in the halls of power
Now we depend on oil and here we are

This is your periodic reminder that Democrats introduced legislation in 2021 to ban gerrymandering nationwide and every republican voted against it except two who were absent.
FVCK YES.
So done with Smirky McLiesalot
If pre-Trump Republican governance was about hiring firefighters who turned a blind eye to arson, now it's hiring arsonists themselves as firefighters. DOJ suing to help the KKK. HHS rolling out an Exotic Diseases For All program. Government as malevolent trolling. Sick stuff
Can I just say how annoying it is, not just these insane Republican policies, but the arrogant condescending and prickish way they go about everything? They constantly have to insult people. They intentionally time their actions for maximum shock, insult or injury. I hope there’s karma in this world
Weird that he is still publicly blathering on about 2020 as he had private comms leaked that showed he thought the whole effort to pretend Trump won in 2020 was wrong
@andycraig.bsky.social thought continually vindicated

The CDC has now completely killed publication of this report on the efficacy of the COVID vaccine.
This is the first time the CDC has spiked a journal article that had already received both scientific clearance and editorial review.
Not his fault, obviously. Wonderful people like Diane Rehm also deal with spasmodic dysphonia
Also this: 👇
Yeah why would Trump prioritize the wellbeing of the Argentinian and UAE economies and citizens over that of America’s economy and citizens… follow the 💰
Pouring US money into Argentina benefited Bessent - a close ally of and donor to Trump. UAE conflicts of interest are even more direct.
