This 14-minute talk by David Brooks is worth a listen. youtu.be/QSa52TR9tCA

I’ve had occasion to say this to multiple groups over the last few days. People always asking, “Why isn’t anyone doing anything?!” Maybe the someone who can do something is…you.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

This is Luke Farritor. He is the 23 year old that fired all the staff in charge of our nuclear arsenal. Don't worry, though. He completed an internship with SpaceX, so I'm sure he is clearly qualified to determine whether our nuclear arms should be adequately staffed by qualified persons. 🤯🤯🤯

The Trump-Vance-Musk regime is not only undermining democracy in the United States. It is also laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world. And the oligarchy is cheering them on. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/paying-off-putin

Replacing a four-star fighter pilot with a little-known, retired three-star Air Force general who "endeared" himself to Trump www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

Unfortunately I won’t be to DC in time, but this rally for Ukraine is happening in Lincoln memorial. Attend if you can and Slava Ukrainii!

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

America in 2025.

Trump and Hegseth’s Reckless Purge of Military Leadership Endangers National Security. Common Defense calls on Congress, military leaders, and every American who cares about democracy to speak out and stand against this dangerous coup in the making.

Do they have Nextdoor in Russia? Because in all fairness, cops would’ve been called on them in my neighborhood too. Average Russian citizen is glad Trump won, speaks volumes. www.google.com/amp/story/s/...

Elon Musk’s AI said he and Trump deserve the death penalty

"The crowd again started shouting 'tax Elon,' 'tax the wealthy,” “tax the rich' and 'tax the billionaires.'" The county went 68% for Trump www.lagrandeobserver.com/news/local/r...

I am so sick of this shit. It’s a Sieg Heil. It’s a Nazi salute. Anyone who sees it knows. It’s ridiculous that legal departments presumably won’t let media call it what it is. Bannon made “a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally”? Fuck off.

He sold his soul and morals in the hope and promise of power and money. He’s more dangerous than the orange one as he’s always been corrupt.

Oop

American Pundits: It was an exuberant and controversial gesture of uncertain significance… Actual Fascists: It’s a Nazi salute.

Check out the recent GOP Town Hall in Georgia. This needs to happen everywhere. Hold your congressmen accountable!

I believe he is a danger to our nation, a threat to our safety, careless with our people, and reckless with his power. I believe America is less secure, less diverse, less compassionate, and less decent under his leadership. I will not obey him. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/i-do-not-o...

There is zero ambiguity here. It’s nauseating.

what in the world

He still hasn’t done anything to bring down the price of eggs or gas. Planes on the other hand…

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

To the @GOP senators and Congressmen who claim to support Ukraine, you do have some power… if you’re unwilling to exercise it then don’t pretend to care about your country more than your political career:

i think it's time to throw some cybertrucks into the boston harbor, yall

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.
