Ugh yes so annoyingly gleeful!!
It's not just the authoritarianism — it's how shameless, how *gleeful* this administration is about it
RIP 🙏🏼
New in PN: The lawyers who caved
"If these shining stars of the legal profession are willing to betray the very legal system that gives them their value, one has to ask: is that system really working the way it should?"
Amen!

Annie Lennox Sings For GAZA‼️
WHY? - For Gaza by #AnnieLennox
You can’t talk about cleaning up crime in D.C. while a 34-count convicted felon is running the country.
I’m a U.S. citizen who was wrongly arrested and held by ICE. Here’s why you could be next.

True true. But Jordie please don’t use a filter on your videos. You don’t need one.
A government filled with posters
I don’t have a lot of sympathy for very wealthy, privileged people who are capitulating to fascism and/or staying silent because they’re “scared.” People are being dragged out of their homes and people who could be next are *still* speaking up. Silence won’t protect you but it emboldens them
This is very sad.
I’m brand new to Bluesky. What are starter packs?
If Biden made a gaffe this egregious and embarrassing it would be front page news in the New York Times. But now it's just Trump being Trump!
The free speech purge is here. PBS was 1. Colbert was 2. Kimmel is 3.

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.”
Nailed it.
"From masked ICE agents to threats against an alleged conspiracy of leftist NGOs, a sense of chaos demoralizes opposition and silences critics. American institutions are sorted into those who are with or against the administration. The empire came home." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/18/o...
We’re protesting outside the Broadview ICE facility and an agent came out to tell us to go away.
We said we’re exercising our First Amendment rights so he shot the ground with pepper balls and said, “Your First Amendment rights are on the sidewalk.”
NBC: Do you think it's appropriate for Brendan Carr to threaten companies if they didn't take action?
JOHN THUNE: *walks away*
Trump administration doing mass arrests of local elected officials.
They're escalating on all fronts.
"They're making comedy illegal. Brendan Carr pressured ABC to cancel Jimmy Kimmel – and Disney cancels Jimmy Kimmel. This canceling from an administration that lectured us about cancel culture. That's why today I'm introducing a motion to subpoena Brendan Carr."
Rep. Ro Khanna
I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.
