What is happening at the Pentagon right now is the purge of people loyal to the Constitution to replace them with people loyal to MAGA. Trump is taking over democratic institutions so they cannot oppose him anymore like last time. That's autocratic legalism 101, another attempt to end democracy.

Prediction: the Nаzi salute will become common within 2 years. RWers will half-аss it for plausible deniability, memeify the backlash, then start fully doing it "as a joke" "to troll the libs" "for being hysterical enough to think we were doing it in the first place"

Extending the hand of friendship to people who don't apologize or change isn't forgiveness. It's permission.

Sadly, it would not surprise me in the least if this is confirmed to be true. As soon as he was nominated for HHS, I predicted that RFK Jr. would replace several (or even all) ACIP members with antivax fake "experts."

These kinds of threats only work if the threatener can credibly commit to not doing the thing that they are threatening. And Trump can't commit to not pulling out of Europe, so Europeans should just do what is best for themselves. So, no, German pols shouldn't embrace the AfD

If global policy makers can learn anything from the last eight years, it's that making concessions to Trump nets you zero security -- even if your concessions are total, abject, humiliating capitulation

There’s not a word in this story about the corrupt nature of this dismissal. Not a concern voiced, not a question raised, not even an acknowledgment that he’s the president’s biggest donor and he’s acting as an unelected, unconfirmed tyro wielding unchecked power over spending and the civil service.

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

Just a reminder that fascists, authoritarians, dictators of all stripes destroy archives— books, museums, databases, &c— because those things provide windows onto a plurality of other ways we might organize the world. And so preserving, defending, and spreading that knowledge harms those regimes.

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

White House social media posted a video of migrants detainees being marched onto a plane and joked the sound of their chains is ASMR. Just digging deeper into depravity and dehumanization. If you can still support this regime, you're dead to me. www.rawstory.com/white-house-...

Current American foreign policy is about draining power from the US and its allies, thereby creating atmospherics in which Donald Trump feels good and Elon Musk converts lost state capacity into personal profit. The weakness, in other words, is the point. snyder.substack.com/p/affirmativ...

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

I get we're all numb to this but another way of looking at Trump pushing 25% auto tariffs is the world's richest auto executive trying to ban much of his competition

This is right, and scientists should read this thread. Musk’s last decade of behavior is driven by a fight: tech billionaires against Silicon Valley engineers and scientists. Now he’s bringing that class war to government. And NIH/NSF. He wants to oppress scientists.

Arguments about persuasion are comforting in their familiarity but they're so detached from the shape of the present crisis. It'll take Congress, or the Courts, or a police force responding to orders from either (or an undeniable mass of citizenry in DC) physically obstructing Musk to stop DOGE.
