Folks are underrating how much more appealing expansionism—in Canada, in Greenland, etc—is going to become for certain parts of the U.S. once this looming debt crisis bursts.

Palestinians gunned down while trying to reach food aid site in Gaza, hospital says

Musk promising to cut $2T by "running the Govt like a biz"—but succeeding only in starving 300K people to death by gutting US Aid—proves again that billionaires don't know how to manage money except to exploit & kill low income people. Stop trusting billionaires. Start taxing them out of existence.

Marco Rubio has announced that the Trump regime will deny visas to any foreign nationals who criticize Israel, “because the United States condemns antisemitism against Jewish people.” There's so many horrifically fascist things wrong with this framing and this policy. Thread... 1/6

Anybody that's Gen X & older that claims that we didn't care about race back in the day is fucking lying to you. Talking all that, "We weren't easily offended" bullshit. When they were clearly offended by school integration. 1/4

The 2018 steel tariffs just called to remind you that steel is produced by a tiny sliver of the economy, but used as an input by a much broader swathe of manufacturers. econofact.org/steel-tariff...

SCOOP: The State Department's new reorganization plan includes the opening of an "Office for Remigration," a term popularized by far right extremists and neo-Nazis in Europe. The office will coordinate directly with DHS "to advance the President’s immigration agenda." My report:

The lowdown on MAGA's ambassador to Canada. This guy is bad news. There is a reason Trump put him on the Canada file. charlieangus.substack.com/p/trumps-mag...

“In a stable democracy, the government’s legitimate use of force is guided by law, with clear boundaries that prevent abuses of power. However, in a fractured government experiencing a constitutional crisis, those boundaries blur.” www.theunpopulist.net/p/there-is-n...

I only wish the Dem establishment was smart enough to understand why AOC is seen as the leader…and to embrace it…and to realize those pushing back on her and her message are the problem.

wrote about Biden's failure to crush fascism, and why Ds really need to do better next time. if they get a next time. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/biden-shou...

This passed 215-214. We're going to lose our healthcare because 3 senior Dems have died this year. We lost Roe because Ginsburg didn't retire. We lost the election because Joe ran for reelection. Our country is being destroyed because geriatric Dems can't retire and let go of power.

Preemptively, I want to remind @liberalca.bsky.social and @mark-carney.bsky.social that most of us voted for you to *stand up* to the US & disentangle ourselves from their grasp. Building consensus & cooperation is all well & good, but so is decisiveness & resolution. Remember what the owners said.

Trump muses about wanting more foreign gifts as the Pentagon accepts the $400M Qatari jet. Between this, Trump’s multi-billion dollar Middle East deals, and his crypto ventures the risks of foreign influence peddling are high. Trump sees the presidency as an asset on his balance sheet.

If other countries shot at a Canadian delegation, they wouldn’t get off with a finger wagging. Canada needs to sanction and boycott Israel.

We could call that plane Emolument One.

*Right after* the UK, France, and Canada warned that they will take "concrete actions" if Israel does not de-escalate its violence in Palestine, Israel shoots at diplomats from those nations.

🚨According to litigators, ICE just put a dozen men on a flight (which may have already taken off) to SOUTH SUDAN, a country on the brink of civil war, in direct defiance of a court order requiring ICE to give people an opportunity to raise objections before being sent to a country not their own.

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

"The bare minimum will reach the population - simply so the world doesn't stop us and accuse us of war crimes." www.bbc.com/news/live/cq...

The Director of the FBI is openly lying to the American public about Canada being a major source of fentanyl. In the first three months of 2025, a grand total of 1.35 lbs of fentanyl was seized by border officials at our border with Canada — 0.06% of total seizures.

This guy might have been good enough for Biden. But he really doesn't have a clue about Canada. When you threaten our right to remain an independent nation we will reflect on your advice and then file it in the folder entitled, "just fuck off back to Washington."

The transfer of white Afrikaners to the US was fast-tracked after refugee resettlement officials came under pressure from top admin people to make it happen quickly, sources at NGOs who were informed of this tell me. Trump wanted this done. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/1953...

BREAKING: The Trump administration is working on a plan to permanently relocate up to 1 million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to Libya, five people with knowledge of the effort told NBC News.

NEW from me — ICE is actively searching for job candidates with backgrounds in construction management and engineering via a third party recruitment agency. This comes on the heels of the @aclu.org uncovering ICE's plan to expand their detention facilities in 10 states. My report:

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc. And get the money out

Since I administered the WH emoluments rules, let me explain why this is forbidden Trump expressed interest in it before it was offered He is going to use & benefit from it a while in office And he's going to keep using it after he leaves! Functionally, it's a gift to him & so it's illegal

ABC reports Trump to take “flying palace” from Qatar and use it as temporary Air Force 1 before converting it to a personal possession.

Dan Quayle's political life ended when he misspelled "potato" in public. But this dangerous moron can do career-ending things over and over and never pay the price. That's the power of Citizen's United. The rich can simply buy public opinion.

NEW — I’ve obtained audio of new acting FEMA head David Richardson threatening staff in an all hands meeting this morning. As first reported by Reuters, he told those who resisted change in the agency, “Don’t get in my way…I will run right over you.” Listen to the clip here:
