This is the biggest, underreported news right now. Republicans are trying to STEAL an election in North Carolina. Straight up. This is a test case for 2026 and 2028. They will never voluntarily give up power again.

www.wired.com/story/judge-... No idea why the judge allowed this. The reasoning against the ruling is common-sense. It’s legally sound. The ruling is the equivalent of saying to the public that, well, DOGE has destroyed your agencies, stolen your data, and confiscated your all assets so it’s okay.

Breaking, per NBC News @garygrumbach.bsky.social -- Judge Paula Xinis in the District of Maryland has ruled that the United States Government must return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by April 7 at 11:59p

He’s crazy, and we are all crazy for allowing this.

Remember all the politicians, pundits, anchors, law firms, billionaires, and corporations that voluntarily bent the knee to Trump and threw America under the bus. They made a selfish choice, thinking Trump and MAGA would be in power for years. Well, the regime is cracking and people are waking up.

America is unprotected. This is deliberate, of course. Trump fired the Director of the NSA. From my vantage point he acted to destroy our country. apple.news/Abm2BM-rKTZS...

Stole it. It was worth it. Now don’t tattle.

Umm. Uh… Wasn’t there something about a chat, Signal, something like that? Anyone remember anything about that? 🐦‍⬛

If you received an email regarding your grant, this is excellent guidance.

Groups across the country have received letters notifying them that their grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities have been canceled, raising alarms about serious harm to museums, historical sites, and a wide range of community projects.

i don't think all that stuff with the tariffs is a very good idea

Hi, stonk expert here! This isn’t funny, markets only do this when they’re in extreme distress.

Join me and @therickwilson.bsky.social for a Substack Live to discuss how Donald Trump has made the economy great again by crashing the stock market and made us safer by listening to conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer's sage national security advice. 2:30 pm ET. thelefthook.substack.com

Trump fired at least three senior National Security Council officials at the urging of far-right conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer. The firings came a day after she provided a list of administration personnel she considered disloyal to him.

Trying to pinpoint the most immediate illustration of the End of the United States of America. I’m going with Roe v. Wade.

A new Gilded Age has arrived — but will Americans fight back like they did in 1899, or are we doomed to follow Russia’s descent into billionaire rule? hartmannreport.com/p/elon-musks...

Saw @hartmannreport.com on Sling after I had watched Stephanie Miller. He would have been infinitely preferable to #msnbc’s Jose Diaz-Balart’s infantile support of the tariffs. #msnbc obeyed in advance and lost its audience. Firing the great @joyannreid.bsky.social announced their complicity.

www.bbc.com/news/article... Uh. This doesn’t seem like something the US should be doing.

Jose Diaz-Balart, declaring “what a shame it is that we make so little in the United States” and suggesting that maybe it’s time to stop “chipping away” at the economy and instead remake it entirely, are positions of a Privileged, ignorant, and biased journalist. #msnbc has become complicit.

I don’t know, but who the fuck is he to “reorient the world economy?” Why are we allowing this insanity? AND WHY ARE SOME IN THE MEDIA REPORTING LIKE THIS IS NORMAL? This is not normal. Jeff Mason, repeat after me, this is not normal. You and #Reuters are so much more intelligent than that.

It strikes me as somewhat grandiose to unilaterally decide that you alone have the right to “rearrange the world order.” But Vance was always recognizable as someone who would say something so - what? Pretentious? Privileged? Entitled?

Asked my smart economist friend about how #TrumpTariffs help Americans or even the rich, because I couldn't see it, and he said, "It doesn't. He's destroying stuff. It doesn't benefit anyone...except our enemies."

What's the point of having billion dollar endowments, rich alumni and "prestige" if you can be cowed like that by a single administration? The Ivy League looking funny in the light.

Some voters got mad about people listing their pronouns, so now we're sending law-abiding, legal immigrants to torture prisons and being hit with the largest middle class tax hike in at least 40 years.

What a perfect day for Newsmax to ring the opening bell on the stock exchange.
