Why is President Trump attacking the Postal Service?: Your questions answered www.epi.org/publication/...

European universities offer ‘scientific asylum’ to US researchers fleeing Trump’s cuts https://twp.ai/1WGBY6

Pam Bondi had stern words for Democratic House Rep. Jasmine Crockett. Crickets on the actual domestic terrorist who drove into a crowd of protesters at a Tesla dealership tho. 🙄

Pete Buttigieg has entered the chat.

Swalwell: Hegseth is still the Secretary of Defense? This moron texts out our war plans, putting our soldiers at risk, and he’s not gone? Every one on that chat—they just fire off texts not knowing who is on the chat? They all should be fired if they don’t resign.

Is Bondi going to prosecute this guy federally as a domestic terrorist?

Congrats to The Atlantic for getting what must be a ton of traffic not at all related to a hate read.

100 special police forces sent to Nuuk, Greenland from Denmark to beef up security amid US invasion threat.

I prefer this portrait for him, no?

France has warned Donald Trump against trying to invade Greenland by military force or economic coercion. French foreign minister Jean-Noel Barrot said the European Union would not “let other nations of the world attack its sovereign borders, whoever they are”.

Pat Bondi: "That a nice First Amendment you got there. Pity if anything happened to it. BTW, DMs are open for bribes."

How many Signal chats with sensitive information about military operations are ongoing within the Pentagon right now? Where else are war plans being shared with such abject disregard for our national security? We need answers. Right now.

DOGE has repeatedly failed to find evidence of widespread Social Security fraud. So why does the Trump regime keep bringing it up? It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires a giant tax cut.

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

Trump is ordering the DOJ to go after me & other lawyers because he’s losing! Now is not the time for capitulation—& most of us are standing up We’ll keep fighting & we’ll keep WINNING as I’ll discuss tonight @8pm ET w/ Anderson Cooper @cnn.com

Gifted link from Aaron Rupar about the Signal group chat that Hegseth, Vance, Gabbard and others put together and mistakenly invited the editor of The Atlantic to participate. They planned on deleting the group chat later - clearly illegal. Just stunning. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Atlantic journalist says Trump officials included him in war plans group chat https://twp.ai/1WCzks

And here we go -- Fox News is now saying we should get rid of "due process" because it's too cumbersome. Brian Kilmeade: "But I also think it's not practical to think that we can do due process on 8 million people." www.mediamatters.org/brian-kilmea...

Former US attorney for Eastern District of Virginia Jessica Aber found dead at 43

It never got a lot of attention, but Aber put a WHOLE LOT of child predators w/ties to law enforcement in prison. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/f...

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Lesson to @columbiauniversity.bsky.social , Paul Weiss, Judge Beryl Howell, @schumer.senate.gov : Don't surrender to bullies

This is insane

This is the story that Karoline Leavitt said probably wasn’t accurate when it was first reported by Reuters because she said they aren’t reliable.

Donald Trump rose to power by stoking fears of scarcity. The liberal response should be to embrace the politics of abundance—but liberals first need to get out of their own way, Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson argue.

Nice work in Tottenham

A Canadian woman was kidnapped at the US border by CBP and ICE agents. She committed no crime or illegal crossing but was forcibly kidnapped and thrown into an ice concentration camp.

Started / Going

I care deeply about who Michigan will elect as Governor and send to the U.S. Senate next year, but I have decided against competing in either race. I wrote more here about my decision and how I view the work required of us all in this moment:

How are those tariffs going?

No one seems willing to think about how getting nuclear weapons creates a pretext for attack against those weapons. If UKR had kept its nukes - aimed mostly at us, btw - the Russians would have attacked them many years ago. Iran has played this game of "almost, but not quite" very cleverly.

Emergency Video: Dems are falling into GOP trap, plus all about what is happening in the Govt funding fight, and how dems can push back. This is your one chance to have some DOGE accountability, and on Ukraine. (link to full video in reply)

Still boycotting Amazon 3/7-3/14 like a boss.

I completely agree with AOC.

Trump just turned the White House into a Tesla dealership—hawking $60K cars to bail out Musk while everyday Americans watch their 401(k)s tank. Funny how he feels sorry for Elon losing money but doesn’t give a damn about the people suffering under his wreck of an economy. Oh, and it’s illegal.

It’s totally unacceptable, Elon Musk is giving Trump political operation ANOTHER $100 million as he giggles with a chain saw and cuts staff, veterans, and needed services. This is NOT what our founding fathers envisioned, an oligarchy in all but name.

The Trump regime disappeared Mahmoud Khalil a permanent resident for practicing the 1st Amendment. He’s only the first if you let them. It won’t end until millions more are missing. Heed this warning. #3E #EndImpunity

Donald Trump campaigned on the fact that he believed Kamala Harris would cause a recession. In reality, the only candidate who would have caused a recession is Donald Trump, and the American people are feeling it today.

These tariffs are a Trump tax. Instead of putting a stop to them, Congressional Republicans are rolling out the red carpet for more.

“In the long run, a more normal kind of American administration will return. With it will also return productive and predictable relationships,” writes @eliotacohen.bsky.social. “But after the past two months, there cannot, and should not ever be, trust.” theatln.tc/gZ7STJIs

I cannot overstate how much I love the fact that Williams & Connolly put *14* individual lawyers’ names in the signature block of their complaint. W&C is sending a clear message: We are not afraid. BRAVO.
