“I wonder how much of what Hegseth or Cain or anybody tells the president that he actually understands, because I think that’s a challenge. If you’ve ever talked to people who tried to brief him, he’s unbriefable. He just doesn’t listen. He hears what he wants to hear.” @radiofreetom.bsky.social
Andrew Weissmann: “[Todd Blanche] sought the indictment of six members of Congress for speaking the truth; he sought the indictment of Letitia James three times; he has greenlit issuing a grand jury subpoena that was quashed by a federal judge to Jerome Powell.” @weissmann.substack.com
“We are watching the tragedy of a nation, day by day, but also the tragedy of an individual’s life. Can you look at how Todd Blanche has acted over the past year and a half and even fathom that he is now sitting in the same office that Robert Jackson once sat in?” @michael-feinberg.bsky.social

“The only thing that I find curious is how many of those Republicans still think that clinging to this kind of burning wreckage of the administration is still their only chance of political survival when it seems like the smart move is to start running for the lifeboats.” @radiofreetom.bsky.social
Tom Nichols: “You can tell people all day long that things are great but if it costs more to fill their tank, they don’t feel that things are great, and having Secretary Wright say ‘but Joe Biden’ doesn’t fix that.” @radiofreetom.bsky.social
“It all came full circle with this slush fund, and the American people saw for the first time what this man and this presidency is about. And it is for that reason that I believe that the beginning of the end of this presidency will be remembered in history as this week.” @judgeluttig.bsky.social
How can we on the pro-democracy side protect non-partisan election workers? “It’s really going to come down to state actors and everyday citizens willing to stand up and demonstrate their rights and their capabilities in a participatory democracy.” — @michael-feinberg.bsky.social
“A 60-day ceasefire – let’s think about it for a moment. Are we really saying that if we don’t get good terms from the Iranians that the president is going to restart a major war in the Middle East – on what, Labor Day? Just before an election? Good luck with that.” @radiofreetom.bsky.social

One-man think tank Anthony, I think, has a point: Those $1.6bn will not compensate MAGA, they will likely end up in Trump's own pockets after he failed to successfully sue the IRS.
For laughs, here’s what happened when it officially became his birthday 😬😂 @kenmancan.bsky.social
Trump doesn't want YOU to vote. Joined Women’s Fund RI, Common Cause RI, and RI Secretary of State Amore to call out the so-called SAVE America Act which makes it harder for married women, seniors & military families to vote. Proud to stand with so many Rhode Islanders fighting for our rights!
"It's hard to remember a time before Star Wars. The world was different.… Americans felt deeply mired in the present. It was a time of economic inflation and rising oil prices. And the nation had grown cynical about its heroes and its leaders." — Empire of Dreams: The Story of the Star Wars Trilogy

When you diet for a prolonged period, your body adapts by reducing energy expenditure. Part of that is because you weigh less — and part is due to hormonal changes that make the body more efficient. It’s not a broken metabolism. It’s biological adaptation.

The real value of Trump’s IRS settlement may not be the 1.8 billion dollar fund. It may be the reported release from IRS violations involving Trump and his family. That starts looking less like a settlement and more like protection. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGEJfNFyK-g
