#USApol: the view from here… the lunatic, rabid, blackshirt right has taken over the asylum… the mad king flails, descending into drug-addled insanity. Citizens watch in horror (except for cultists)… courtiers fawn and flatter, plotting succession. No-one is trusted. Watch it crash and burn…and soon

In a huge coincidence, a Bitcoin billionaire just-so-happened to put up massive leveraged bets against Bitcoin and Ethereum right before Trump posted about new tariffs on China, prompting a market crash.

$200m in profits instantly. $200m we know about, because they likely used many accounts.

Satoshi-era whale shorted $1.1B in BTC and ETH 30 minutes before Trump tariffs, banking $190M-$200M as liquidations hit $19.33B.

Trump influencers deployed to Portland to shape the public’s understanding of events in the city. Online content is blended to serve the regime's policies. Loyalist counter-protest & provocateurs are part of an emerging tactic called stochastic terrorism. www.opb.org/article/2025...

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

It's day 13 of the shutdown. What's Trump doing?
 
Negotiating a budget deal? No.
 
Preventing premiums from doubling? No.
 
Stopping 15 million Americans from losing health care? No.
 
He's meeting the Pres. of Argentina to reward him with a $20 billion bailout.

Rev. David Black hasn’t been the only clergy member attacked by federal agents. “Every time we have been attacked w/pepper bullets … it has felt like it came from anger that we were there, and not from any determined safety need or protocol,” said Rev. Hannah Kardon. “They are unhinged.”

Clergy member shot w/a pepper ball by a federal agent outside of an ICE facility says that showing up for immigrants “is an act of solidarity and a deep desire for those who are inside the facility to know that they are not alone.” New at @americasvoice.bsky.social:
Clergy Member Shot With Pepper Ball Outside ICE Facility Says He Could Hear Agents ‘Laughing’
Rev. David Black, who has since joined a lawsuit against the administration “alleging violations of the First and Fourth Amendments,” says he protests to let immigrants know “that they are not alone."

If Republicans are going to label you a terrorist for peacefully protesting Trump's failing presidency, abuses of power, and treatment of blue America as an enemy nation, let's turn out in even bigger numbers.

On the pod, @jilldlawrence.bsky.social and me on this:

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump
As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.
