Just realised why they gutted USAID. It was fighting kleptocracy worldwide. It even had a Dekleptification Guide.

Up until Trump 2.0 I’d direct my students to find facts at .gov sites. Now what will we be working from?

This not normal, folks.

Who needs accurate health information? Not the US government.

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

ProPublica: Peter Thiel-backed start up called Ramp. A corporate credit card processing outfit. The game here is pretty straightforward. Trump&Musk are looking to hand some or all of the government’s $700B internal expense card program SmartPay over to Ramp. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/rampi...

Hey, Justice Roberts, is this what you meant by "“facilitate and effectuate the return" of Mr. Abrego Garcia? Because I'm not a lawyer, but it sure as hell looks like contempt of court to me.

Lawless, Isolating, imperialistic. We are on the bad guy list.

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

Way to go Urban Outfitters.

Well written ones that teach in some way about healthy relationships I agree.

The next president MUST be an independent. Read Washington’s final address and think about our parties. I would nominate Mark Milley, both antifascist and with deep recent knowledge of geopolitics. Recently stripped of security detail by Trump. Who would you nominate? Why?
