Couldn't agree more with this. It's jaw-dropping to see the patty cake people are playing with him after what was a full constitutional assault that, oh by the way, is almost certainly going to lead to tens of thousands of people in the global south dying needlessly.

"Hey parents, republicans want to look down your kids pants every couple months from middle school to college graduation" seems like the lowest of low hanging fruit.

Insane this isn’t a bigger global story. Climate change is causing glacier collapse in the Alps. The Swiss town of Blatten was destroyed yesterday. The few buildings that survived the 3.5 million cubic metres of landslide are now slowly drowning as the collapsed mountain damns the river. (🎥 AFP)

If a platforms' official position is "we'll allow nazis and racists, but not sex workers", then they aren't upholding free speech, they're upholding nazis and racists. Hope this clears things up for people.

I think the presser yesterday made clear that 95% of what this administration is doing is decided at "a senior staff level", and does not involve Trump. Th only things he gets involved in are those that will enrich him personally.

NEW: This opinion piece in today’s Washington Post is one of the most important it has ever published. Shadi Hamid on the urgency of calling the Gaza crimes what they so patently are: a genocide. I don’t like violating paywalls, but make no apology for doing so for this. It’s essential.

Maine set the precedent for easily shutting down threats related to trans athletes. Newsom isn't scared of Trump, he's thankful for cover to do what he wants to do anyway.

It's the hallmark of the ruling class to divide those under them into arbitrary groups, and pit each of them against one another. The division line doesn't matter: race, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc. All they need is an arbitrary, perceptible difference.

While this is absolutely happening, there is also a high volume of fake Palestine accounts DMing people en masse soliciting donations. As they are so adept at doing, scammers have seized the moment, and the real victims are left in their shadows.

FYI to media outlets, you're misleading your readers if you repeat this at face value. There's no lawful way for him to redirect these grants elsewhere. It's a lie to distract from how the GOP budget guts educational funding, including Pell Grants at trade schools.

Periodic reminder:Substack profits off Nazi pages bc they don't want to be "in the censorship business,"but they also won't host adult content,so they ARE in the "censorship business." They just think Nazis are better than pornographers. This is why I will never give Substack a single shiny nickel.

We're now exactly halfway through the 90-day pause on April 2nd tariffs, and the only "deal" the Trump administration has done is slightly lowering the tariffs on British Aston Martins. Meanwhile, we're starting 50% tariff on the EU in a week. This whole thing has been a disaster

It's remarkable how quickly someone expressing any criticism of Israeli actions/policy can be labeled an antisemite/Nazi, and that label just sticks without question.

Cis Americans, if you do one single thing today please let it be to contact your representative.

Speak up

Billionaires and CEOs know Trump and Republicans are gutting Medicaid and SNAP to pay for their tax cuts. So where are the billionaires who should be saying, “Wait…don’t cut my taxes if it means kids go hungry or die from treatable cancer”? This is why the rich are villainized by every day folks.

Was this insider trading? Today, Nvidia, $NVDA, announced it was partnering with Navitas Semiconductor Corp $NVTS. You can see that TODAY and ON MAY 16th SOMEONE BOUGHT LOADS OF CALLS. $NVTS gets zero options, LITERALLY ZERO. $NVTS is up 195% in afterhours. Insane this trading is allowed.
