Here’s a video of Stephen Miller in high school screaming that he’s “sick and tired of being told to pick up my trash, when we have plenty of janitors who are paid to do it for us.” This is the sociopath shaping our immigration policy and so much more

Well we still have famine to look forward to. How great for us.

What they aren’t showing on Fox News

I am sounding the alarm as loudly as I can that Donald Trump has turned the Department of Justice into a cog in his authoritarian machine to prosecute his political opponents.

“Ending a $5 million research study when it is 80% complete does not save $1 million, it wastes $4 million.” ✊🏼🧬 www.standupforscience.net/bethesda-dec...

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

At least three have been important sources of vaccine misinformation - very bad www.washingtonpost.com/health/2022/... science.feedback.org/review/scien... sciencebasedmedicine.org/unethical/

Mike Johnson has lost his mind and is opening the door to dictatorship. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

CNN Reporter to Police: He’s press, he’s with me Police Officer: You grabbing me? Get away from me

Seth gets it

Humiliated by China, Harvard, Elon Musk, and the federal courts, Trump has launched a war inside America on vulnerable people inside America. Like any bully, Trump is fundamentally a coward.

Since we featured the Stand Up for Science letter in the Good Trouble segment of the Daily Beans podcast this morning, signatures have gone from roughly 5,000 to 15,000! You can add your name by clicking the link below:

@mark-carney.bsky.social Do Canada a huge favour. Cancel ALL US military contracts. Especially as it applies to the F-35 fighter jets. What’s the US going to do? Sue Canada for breach of contract? Why should we care since they are not respecting current trade agreements! I. AM. CANADIAN. 🇨🇦🍁

Love this!

Yes. Folks, this is not a distraction. Any action that hurts millions of people can never be a distraction. Trump covers up crime with scandal. Deploying military forces on US soil to hurt innocent people isn’t a scandal. It’s a crime. Focus on the people getting hurt. That’s who matters most.

Maddow: I also feel like there’s not very much about that that I don’t understand. Like, it’s the same everywhere. This is blond Berlusconi, you know what I mean? This is inarticulate Viktor Orbán, right? These guys are all the same. The authoritarian playbook is the same everywhere

RFK Jr. wants to Make America Healthy Again. But he's ignoring the country's leading cause of preventable deaths: smoking.

Federal law grants students experiencing homelessness a right to extra support and protections. Advocates say President Trump's proposed budget would strip that law of its power.

Trump's attitude: Who cares if these students are homeless for the rest of their lives! Losers!

This administration wants us uninformed!

NEW: A data broker owned by the country’s major airlines, including Delta, American Airlines, and United, collected US travelers’ domestic flight records, sold access to them to Customs and Border Protection (CBP). www.wired.com/story/airlin...

When planning your next vacation here are some good tips on avoiding ICE, the US Marines, having your phone seized and illegal detention.

Turns out, the “Don’t Tread On Me” states’ rights gang is rather partial to heavy treading.

This stuff doesn’t look very protect-and-serve-y

Make no mistake. At that range, an error? And even if it were an error, they have the right to shoot out cameras? Dear god, do you see what is happening? What's next,people falling out of windows?

Don’t be fooled. This “big, beautiful bill” will raise prices on most and cut and gut programs for working low income Americans all to give the fewer wealthiest a massive tax cut. This is wrong. youtube.com/shorts/gFkLl...

It’s not a surprise that the man who purposely incited a violent attempt to overthrow an American election would now purposely incite violence on the streets of Los Angeles as a justification for military force against American citizens. Not a surprise at all.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

If you're a Marine or other service member being mobilized to Los Angeles and you'd like to apply for conscientious objector status, call the GI Rights Hotline to get some guidance on your options: 1-877-447-4487

You can see why MARINES are necessary.

For Trump, violence against the police is just fine so long as it’s committed in his name.

If what was happening in LA was such a “national emergency”, why was the “president” in NJ smiling for the cameras at a UFC fight?

JUST IN: Health Secretary RFK Jr. has removed all 17 members of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. He says replacing them with new members will help restore 'public trust' in vaccines.

This is a reasonable suggestion. Anyone who wants to be a Democratic leader should be willing to be in LA now. And I don’t mean with a TV crew, or behind a lectern, or giving interviews, but simply to stand with the community and engage in congressional fact-finding. And to tell any reporter that.

Trump went full Col. Jessup for this 😂

Imagine waging a holy war against wind power, gutting mine safety, and forcing Americans to foot the coal bill—all while tweeting job openings for black lung gigs. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process. So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel. Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

An anti-voting lawsuit filed Friday is demanding full access to Utah’s voter registration list — including records that are private or classified as protected under state law. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

again, it is super easy not to hit the people with giant cameras and mics if you aren't aiming for them!!!

Murphy: "Everything that's happened in the last 7 days - the fight w/ Musk & now the deployment of the National Guard - is probably also a distraction from the main story, which is that Trump is trying to pass probably the most unpopular piece of legislation he will attempt to move through Congress"

The CDC is being gutted. Experts are being pushed out. Science - and people’s HEALTH - is under attack. We can’t do this alone. We need voices, bodies, solidarity. 📍Please come out Tuesday to support. Stand with us to #SaveCDC Because when public health falls, we all feel it.

I don’t support Trump wasting at least $45 million in taxpayer money on a military parade for his authoritarian birthday. Give that money to Veterans. Don’t forget to subscribe: www.dworkinsubstack.com/subscribe

ICE crossed a line in LA

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.
