Remember when Trump literally had fake electors try to overturn the election?
Nothing happened to them. This is a federal crime. Why haven’t they been prosecuted?

I will be on @maddow.bsky.social’s show tonight to talk about InfoWars. Unlike the site’s current proprietor, I am not presently shirtless.
The Supreme Court has agreed to decide whether Colorado can exclude Catholic preschools from the state’s universal pre-K program because they won’t agree to accept children with same-sex parents.
Don’t forget that Trump threatened to wipe out an entire civilization in Iran.
Congress has tools to rein in this president.
But nothing will happen until Republicans grow a spine and work with Democrats to stand up to him.
Oh
Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court finds that abortion access is a fundamental right guaranteed by the Pennsylvania Constitution, and a ban on public funding for abortion is unconstitutional.
Israel maintains a quota of no greater than 10% Muslims/Arabs living within Israel. And yes, they can vote and run for the Knesset. But don't forget that Prior to 1949, Palestine was 95% Muslims/Arabs. Israelis pushed them out, took their land. 10% is a powerless minority. Israel is not a democracy.
Meta just paid the lowest effective federal tax rate in its history.
Thanks to tax breaks and loopholes, it avoided $13.7B in 2025 federal income taxes.
But now it's planning to lay off 10% of its global workforce (8,000 people) by May 20 — with more job cuts later this year.
Trickle down hoax.
It is likely that Trump's Iran catastrophe will lead to some kind of compensation for all the countries the US has screwed (which is all of them). We would do well now to lay groundwork for seizing assets of the Palantirs and Musk fortune that enabled Trump's rise and invasion.
Just as an FYI, there are 7 Republican Senate seats in play.
Even if we took all 7, Democrats would not have enough votes to remove lardass if impeached. Need 67 votes, would only have 54.
OPINION: "Donald Trump’s presidency is a morality lesson. He is a living example of what happens when a man is given power that far exceeds his character." thehill.com/opinion/whit...
oooooooooooo it's happening!
Tesla saved $400 million on its federal taxes by shifting billions of its U.S. profits to countries with lower tax rates.
Yes: While you paid your taxes in full, giant corporations maneuvered to pay as little as possible — and it’s all perfectly legal for them.
The system is rigged.
A hundred years ago, the U.S. had a nationwide network of short-line railroads that connected most urban and rural communities. By the 1940s, most of it had been dismantled ... by the barons of the auto and oil industries. 😑
Just another day in Donald Trump’s Endless Clown Show.
Three women out. Not a single dude
Donald, after being told Air Force personnel were missing in Iran, had a freakout that got him excluded from an important briefing. He was't worried about the missing pilots. No, he only cared that a failed operation would hurt HIS POLL NUMBERS, as it had Jimmy Carter's. What a self-absorbed prick.
New, from me: Take the Palantir manifesto seriously, if not literally.
It reveals that our tech philosopher kings want public money, but without public accountability. This creates a dilemma for governments unaligned with its techno-fascist vision. 🧵

We’ve hit a point in the news cycle where trump can no longer move people around to make it look like no one’s been fired
well... THAT's pretty eye opening, actually, Mike, to just say it out loud like that.
Did that sound different in your head?
John Roberts' wife is not the only Supreme Court spouse to shake down people with business before the court to give bribes. Ginni Thomas has a "consulting firm" (AKA a PO Box for checks) to funnel money to Clarence. #Corruption
BREAKING: Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has resigned.
All of this is worrisome. And now Palantir is so integrated into gov it'll be hard to get them out.
"The way in which Palantir grew caused unease within its own ranks. A year ago, some former Palantir employees wrote an open letter about the violation of the company’s prior ethical guardrails."
1/ Looks like the FBI director is trying to fight to hold onto his job by currying favor with the president after recent revelations about his personal conduct. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
The new report on FBI Director Kash Patel cites more than TWO DOZEN sources describing his leadership as a “management failure” and national security risk.
The White House and DOJ didn’t deny the allegations, but deflected.
Patel was the only one who issued a direct rebuttal.
That speaks volumes.
Jeffries on Kash Patel: "We have to stop putting all the blame on the people who nominated this incompetent, toxic, malignant individual. What about the people who confirmed him? It's extraordinary to me that Senate Republican confirmed people like Noem, Bondi, Hegseth, RFK Jr, and Patel."
Translation:
This deal is about to be exactly like the JCPOA, minus Obama’s signature
