Seems important that the Speaker of the House does not even try to dispute that the president is unwell.
MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell
JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too
D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals?
J: I didn't see it
D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.

Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago:
"If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."

popular anti-fascism as taxpayer revolt...might have some legs
Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?

The birthday letter I wrote to Jeffrey Dahmer where I said “Jeff — love what you’re up to. In fact, I love all that stuff too. We are kindred spirits with the same hobbies, if you know what I mean!” is being taken out of context
