Really important story - army officials asked soldiers to identify themselves if they don't agree with Trump's politics that way he'd get only supportive soldiers in uniform during his political rally on base. Heavier soldiers were also barred from participating.

The government’s response to Gavin Newsom’s lawsuit-which seeks to prevent Trump from using military troops against protesters in Los Angeles Claims that such intervention is necessary to stop a “rebellion” If the Supreme Court lets him get away with this, it’ll be the end of the First Amendment

Downtown LA tonight: No riots, but some will see this and still say, “That’s what I voted for” instead of “Love thy neighbor.”

These people are such tedious dipshits. We're not colonizing the galaxy, pal, we're getting cooked in our own living rooms and shot by police for peacefully protesting our neighbors getting sent to foreign prison just because their parents brought them to the USA when they were 4

Lol

Late posting this, but here's today's Indivisible newsletter with action items in the lead up to No Kings Day! ezralevin.substack.com/p/how-to-pre...

They’re ripping kids out of their parents’ arms—again. In America. In our names. DHS raids don’t just “enforce law”—they shatter families like glass on pavement. A child’s scream isn’t collateral damage. It’s the sound of a democracy losing its soul. This is cruelty by design.

Not a doctor. Not a scientist. No. A longtime heroin addict and current steroid enthusiast who perjured himself in confirmation hearings in order to pursue a twisted agenda that will kill more Americans than Osama Bin Laden.

🆘 Donald Trump is: ✅ WEAK ✅ RACIST ✅ SCARED ✅ BIGOTED ✅ HATEFUL ✅ CRIMINAL ✅ IGNORANT ✅ SOCIOPATHIC ✅ ANTI-AMERICAN Stand up to fascism by protesting peacefully. Exercise your first amendment right and speak out against this administration. We want NO kings in America!

SHARE this as a reminder to EVERY member of our military: “We don't take an oath to a King. We don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator” “We take an oath to the Constitution." #FreedomToDissent

There's a lot to unpack here. But the "why do people in the developed world die from chronic diseases at higher rates than in poorer countries" is because we survive long enough to die from chronic rather than infectious disease. This is epidemiology 101. It's not a mystery.

Republicans have included 300 MILLION in the budget for......Trump's golf trips. You heard that right. But there is no money to feed hungry kids school lunch.

Good time to remember: The last time Trump was president, he ran up more than 25% of ALL the debt in the entire history of America $7.8 TRILLION DOLLARS And he’s about to do it again — so he and his billionaire friends, Musk and Bezos and Zuckerberg, can get tax cuts

No lies detected! #ResistTrump

The time has come for the judiciary to scrap the presumption of regularity. It is yet another outdated norm that we can no longer afford. Those fighting to preserve democracy already face a daunting task without judges reflexively giving Trump the benefit of the doubt.

The DOGE coup continues.

Rubio publicly criticizing an ally for cracking down on right-wing extremism. And Germany hitting back. We are in a new world

Make no mistake, this is a targeted attack from this criminal administration designed to stir up fear, and intimidate. Classic behavior of a dictatorship. #Resist #UnitedBlue #ResistanceReborn

It takes a massive brass neck to have your administration attack another president for being disrespectfully dressed in a meeting and then turn up to the pope's funeral in a blue suit.

Listen up! There are several special elections and local elections coming up. Please check your state & make sure you vote. Complacency & apathy got us in this situation we are in now. Use your vote like a damn shovel to dig us out! #ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #OneV1 #MomSky

They will continue deporting citizen children if they aren't stopped Arresting judges for doing their jobs is unconscionable We need to stand up against all of this! Contact your Congressmen! #Voices4Victory #MomSky

We’ve talked about this before, but we wanted to expand on it a little more. Late last week, Elon Musk’s so-called “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) effectively took control of the Department of the Interior without a single Senate confirmation, public hearing, or vote.

There are times when a decent person would quit rather than preside over a sick farce. This is one of those times.

Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum: “We are going to change the law to prohibit foreign governments from carrying out political and ideological propaganda in our country.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/w...

Stay loud stay visible stay brave

Yes, it does.

Staple this to RFK Jr’s forehead.

History always has a lesson.

Really feel like we all have to talk more explicitly and repeatedly about Stephen Miller as the actual Shadow President because that is what he is, he is almost certainly running the vast majority of day-to-day stuff and is responsible for much of the worst of it

This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason

Someone with a Russian IP address used a DOGE account to attempt to login to the NLRB computer system.

Autism is not a disease, therefore, cannot cause an epidemic. Autism Spectrum Disorder is an inherited neuro developmental disorder. It is more commonly diagnosed bc it’s better recognized. RFK Jr never misses an opportunity to demonstrate his profound ignorance. Leave it to the professionals.

📌"He's betrayed our national security. He will do so again. He's compromised our elections. He will do so again. You will not change him. You can't constrain him. He is who he is. Truth matters little to him. What's right matters even less. Decency matters not at all." -Adam Schiff to GOP in 2020

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US. When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

there's so many layers of fraud and abuse in this story that "someone might have been trying to log into the NLRB's systems with a valid Doge username and password from russia" doesn't even make it into the first 5,000 words

The court system is a coequal branch of government. If the administration isn’t going to follow their orders it’s time to hold some senior officials in contempt.

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

I want to write a report fully detailing the conditions in CECOT via curatorial journalism—there is so much people don't know—but I'll tell you honestly that writing my last three reports on this subject has broken my spirit. My health has been affected. This is the worst topic I've ever written on.
