Call your congresspeople. Much of these are popular recreation areas. This is a way to privatize the places that people hike and camp in. Once we lose these areas we never get them back.

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.

Bay Area reporters: - Remember: The plan to build new tech-run cities is called the Network State. The idea is based on Curtis Yarvin's infamous "patchwork" essay, which Balaji Srinivasan rebranded as the "Network State." "Freedom Cities" is propaganda branding. Don't buy it.

Two of the three states with the largest population of people in the U.S. illegally are the red states of Texas and Florida. Trump, notably, does not name their cities when calling on ICE to execute more aggressive immigration raids. He does, however, name LA, Chicago and New York.

Sen. Rand Paul: "I just never liked the idea of the parade because I grew up in the '70s and '80s and the only parades I can remember are Soviet parades or North Korean parades...Then there's the cost, I mean we're $2 trillion in the hole. I'm not for it."

MAGA terrorist Vance Boelter is a far-right missionary who launched verbal attacks on trans folks preaching that “people don’t know what sex they are because the enemy has gotten so far into their mind and their soul.” This is what’s radicalizing killers: extremist Christian nationalism in action.

If you are not familiar with the term "pluralistic ignorance" you might find it fascinating to listen to this podcast episode. It's related to what Naomi mentions below, and helps explain why there's a delay in people in "red" areas realizing everyone has turned, and why protests help change that.

I think a good rule of thumb is if your preferred source of news referred to yesterday's protest as "tens of thousands" and not "millions", you need to find a different news source.

And to be clear, our troops were in no way responsible for yesterday’s parade fiasco. They had to show up. They couldn’t be forced to show enthusiasm they didn’t have, however.

The Tea Party protests in April 2009 had about a third of a million people involved, and the political media treated it like a game changer for the Obama presidency. The No Kings rallies were AT LEAST ten times bigger than the Tea Party protests. Will the press keep pretending Trump is popular?

This is huge. The Trump administration wants to vastly expand the practice of shipping people to random countries they have never been to before, and are now making this part of a threat; either the countries accept taking third country nationals, or they get banned from visas.

This is journalism malpractice 101, and it should be taught in J-schools as such. What in bloody hell does "widely accepted mean"? It's not "widely accepted". It's true. The other alternative is false. Full stop.

According to the latest WaPo/Schar School poll, Trump’s handling of deportations has 37% approval, 52% disapproval. And Quinnipiac has it at 40% approval, 56% disapproval. But @facethenation.bsky.social insists “public approval is so high on deportation.”

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, massive.

Conservative protests are always treated as an organic cry of anger that manifests the distress of the unjustly ignored American heartland; protests from the center-left are always written off as noise from inside the bubble.

Trump turns 79 today. He is not only the oldest person ever inaugurated as president, but older today than three of our four living former presidents -- older than Obama (out of office for 8 years), Bush (out of office for 16 years, and Clinton (out of office for 24 years).
