- Reposted by clpick“If you read or share only one article today, make it this: HOW TRUMP HAS POCKETED $1,408,500,000 … Historically, one thing that has helped bring down authoritarians is public awareness of their use of power of the office for self-enrichment.” @leahmcelrath.bsky.social No paywall: archive.is/ZmfJC
- ”[Trump] is running a crypto scam where he can receive millions of dollars anonymously. Meanwhile the DOJ has shut down the crypto investigations unit. Truly no corruption scheme like this in our history — at least out of the White House.” @timmiller.bsky.social @thebulwark.bsky.social

- Reposted by clpickJeffrey Epstein, Trump, Peter Thiel... The insidious plot to destroy America was always the billionaire's dream. Devastate American working class families and buy up everything on the cheap — and turn America into a fascist authoritarian oligarchy.
- Reposted by clpickTHEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!
- Reposted by clpickThe first critic review of Melania on Rotten Tomatoes got 1 star. Excerpts from the review: "Superficial, willfully deceitful, unrelentingly boring, strengthens a perception of her as a chilly, lifeless socialite. Propaganda imagining the first monarch in U.S. history for a future non-democracy."

- Reposted by clpickA Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
- Reposted by clpickAOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”
- Reposted by clpick🔥 @timmiller.bsky.social: “You’re telling me he was scared for his life? Are you sh*tting me?? The car is barely moving. He orphaned her child, then called her a ‘f*cking bitch’… it’s not a tough call. This was murder.” Full @thebulwark.com video: youtu.be/oc9gwMDxYAQ?...
