Truth and facts first, always. We don't let anyone rewrite history, be it Jan 6 or whatever anyone fancies. We don't let extremists "own" patriotism. We don't back down. We're not going back!

It's alright... No one will think of Mike Lee as a decent person

Trump has no proof these guys are who he says they are. What better PR coup than to parade them in court,
denounce drug trafficking, embarrass Venezuela, and clearly justify these attacks? I would not be surprised if Tramp was lying... again. Why tell the truth when lies are a better story.

Karoline Leavitt is a complete disgrace.

Her violent and unhinged rhetoric is going to get someone killed.

These extremists are sick people.

"Trumpism will persist as the dominant feature of Republican politics at least to 2028 and almost certainly to 2032. We’re talking about a full generation of Republicans who *only* understand politics in the context of an authoritarian project."

Mike Johnson on CNBC: "I think it has a lot to do with the 'Hate America Rally' that's gonna be on the Mall on Saturday. You're gonna have all the antifa and BLM and pro-Hamas people, all the Marxists will be on the Mall."

The Pentagon’s new media policy blocks journalists from reporting out anything that isn’t approved by Pete Hegseth.

Pentagon reporters walked out of the building rather than sign on.

The freedom of the press has never been more crucial. Kudos to these journalists for protecting it.

If "bold decisiveness" means using the awesome power of the US to blow up small boats that may or may not carry drugs (we're dealing with a administration stuffed with professional liars, starting with Tramp himself), that's not bold or decisive. It's cowardly and probably illegal.

Opinionated News Guy @lcribasusa.bsky.social · 2d

It's because they're so shameless, they're all emboldened by the reckless immunity given to him by SCOTUS. They're happily parroting the fascist tropes

😂💩😂💩 the most amazing is how they self humiliate with a straight face. Gone is any sense of shame, dignity or honor
