Who’s thinking about how our country will hold Trump and his minions accountable when this nightmare is finally over?

We know he’ll pardon himself, family and anyone left in his circle who hasn’t lost favor by then.

Federal commission? State courts? What else?

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

When I heard about Senator Graham’s death last night, the first thing I thought about was not all the things he said and did in service of Donald Trump. I thought of the time before Donald Trump when he was a brother to Senator John McCain.

A time when senators from different parties could fight about politics and still be friends. A time when a conservative Republican from South Carolina could say of my father: “If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, you’ve got a problem. He’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in politics. As good a man as God ever created.”

That is the Senator Graham I will remember today. Not because I have forgotten what came after. Because in that memory there is hope. Hope for a country where brothers can fight like hell over policy and still share a meal, and a laugh, and the loss of the people they love.

I will choose to remember the time before Trump. Because I believe in an America after Trump.

They knew about Corinthian columns when they built the WH. They chose the simpler Doric on purpose, because the WH is not supposed to be an ornate, gilded palace of a mad king.

This is America in the summer of our 250 anniversary.

Shame on ICE. Kudos to protesters!

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: (Chicago suburb, St. Charles) ICE agents smashed a handcuffed man’s face into a stone wall, then assaulted a U.S. citizen, multiple times, once they realized they were filming.

In the video, multiple ICE agents have a man in handcuffs. While he is completely under their control, and not resisting, they smash his face into a stone wall.

A U.S. citizen begins asking for the man’s name, while filming... note that he is not interfering, blocking the agents, or preventing the arrest in any way…. But that doesn’t stop the ICE agent from chases after him, while another agent threatens him with a taser.

As the citizen is actively backing away, the agent continues walking toward him, and aggressively shoves him backwards.

Even after the detained man is being escorted to the vehicle… and the legal observer is nowhere near the agents, or their cars… that same ICE agent continues shoving the U.S. citizen for no apparent reason.

And while he is standing on the public sidewalk, another agent walks over and points a taser inches from him, and then turns around and points his taser at other innocent people, who are just standing and watching.

Americans have a First Amendment right to record government officials performing their duties in public. Threatening, intimidating, or assaulting someone because they are documenting law enforcement, violates that right.

And slamming a person face, who is handcuffed and not resisting, into a stone wall is excessive force.

This is exactly why it’s important to always record anytime you see ICE agents.

Because when there isn’t video evidence, we’re told to trust the government’s version of events. And more often than not, their version is filled with lies.

But when there is video, the people filming often become the next target… just for documenting what is happening.

And that’s what makes this so alarming.

This is happening across the country, almost every single day. Americans are watching videos of people being thrown to the ground, beaten, threatened, shoved, tased, and intimidated by federal agents… while never seeing anyone held accountable.

When a government refuses to investigate or discipline agents who violate people’s constitutional rights, it sends a message that they can keep doing it.

And that’s exactly what we’re seeing.

The Constitution means nothing if the people sworn to uphold it can violate it without consequence.

And as long as this administration refuses to hold ICE agents accountable, Americans should expect to keep seeing videos like this… because impunity breeds abuse.

[CharlieWaukee @cyoungwi]

You call it TDS. Most American's call it ACCOUNTABILITY.

Republicans have shamefully looked the other way as Trump as savaged our country.

For friends who somehow still believe he has your interest in mind, this is worth reading.

[619Joe@Blow# @619JoeBlow]

"Narcissistic Personality Disorder" (NPD) is a mental health condition characterized by a persistent pattern of grandiosity, a strong need for admiration, and difficulty with empathy that significantly affects a person's relationships, work, or other areas of life.

Common features can include:
An inflated sense of self-importance or uniqueness.
Fantasies of unlimited success, power, beauty, or ideal love.
A belief that they should associate only with "special" people.
A strong need for praise and admiration.
A sense of entitlement.
Taking advantage of others to achieve personal goals.
Difficulty recognizing or caring about other people's feelings.
Envy of others or believing others are envious of them.
Arrogant or dismissive attitudes or behaviors.
It's important to note that:
Having confidence, ambition, or occasionally acting self-centered does not mean someone has NPD.
Many people display narcissistic traits at times. NPD is diagnosed only when these patterns are longstanding, inflexible, and cause significant impairment or distress.
Diagnosis should be made by a qualified mental health professional after a comprehensive evaluation.
Treatment often involves psychotherapy, such as long-term talk therapy, which can help improve self-awareness, emotional regulation, and interpersonal relationships. There is no medication specifically for NPD, although medications may be prescribed to treat co-occurring conditions such as Depression or Anxiety disorder.
If your interest is related to a specific situation—such as wondering whether someone you know might have NPD or wanting to understand how it differs from everyday narcissism—I can help explain those distinctions.

For anyone who is worried about the communist threat facing America, here is some important information:

No one was eating the dogs or the cats.

No country emptied it's asylums or prisons into America.

Schools were not setting up litter boxes for kids.

America did not win the war in Iran over 30 times. It lost.

Other countries didn't pay the tariffs, you did.

DOGE didn't cut $2 trillion from the budget. It cost more than the tiny amount it did cut.

There is no communist threat. Not one person who has won a primary for Congress this year is a communist.

A political party that can't run on its record because it has been such a massive failure resorts to baseless fearmongering. That's all.
