ICYMI: my piece on how Trump's move to take control of the independent federal agencies (SEC, FTC, FCC, etc.) is premised on the Supreme Court's willingness to throw out a century or so of law, which it hasn't yet done. "Break the law and see if the courts stop me" is a whole strategy for him.

The truth is Zelenskiy and Ukraine have put up a resistance that no one thought was possible. Trump wants to “settle this war” by giving Putin what he wants. Could this be clearer?

Young voters really don't like Elon Musk. His unfavorability is 54% with all voters. 67% with voters under 30. Feels important for a party that needs to win a much bigger share of young voters.

Gift link. The actual story of the shackled people being deported without even being told where they were being taken — maybe to countries where they’d face torture or death — while their terrified children cried.😢 The White House posted that pic with “ASMR” tag. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w...

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Really interesting @thebulwark.bsky.social interview with Chuck Todd. The AP drama has started to separate the reporters who want to cover power seriously from the throne-sniffers who want to get maximum annual use out of their formal wear. youtu.be/3OphRe1J3Ok?...

Trump is surrendering America. Trump is the opposite of strong. He is a tiny, weak, small, scared, trembling, sissy, husk of a man. There is nothing manly about his fat, sweaty, smelly, gross, makeup'ed self An absolute joke

Trump went to the South this weekend. Not to visit flood victims in Kentucky, but to have his security drive him around a race track. He doesn’t give a shit about you or your needs. He’s on a vanity tour for the next four years.

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy hit back at President Trump's accusation that Ukraine started its war with Russia, saying that the American president is trapped in a “disinformation bubble” and adding that his country was not for sale.

🧵Who is opposing the Trump administration? I analysed 76 actions of the administration since inauguration and then searched for meaningful opposition to each. I grouped the types of opposition and considered what we can learn from both them & actions where opposition has been lacking 1/24

Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an authoritarian like Putin."

The past few weeks have been a master class in myth-busting, starting with the fantasy that the government should be run like a business and the corollary delusion that winning candidates don’t follow through on their agendas. My latest at @thebulwark.bsky.social www.thebulwark.com/p/seven-myth...

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

Trump & Musk have somehow managed to frame recent events as a binary: Either you want to burn it all down, or you support the status quo It’s a false choice, obviously. But Dems/Trump critics have done a poor job articulating that failure in logic and existence of option #3: actually fix things

American institutions—from the media to Congress—continue to underreact to the unraveling of our democracy. Overseas our media would not hesitate to call what we’re living through a full-blown autocratic coup. Here's my attempt at the story they should write: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-trump...
