Over the past week, we’ve seen a surge in bot and troll accounts mostly pushing pro-Musk or pro-Tesla talking points, along with threats and false claims. Let’s be clear: we don’t allow spam accounts here, and we will not tolerate threats against anyone. This tactic isn’t new.

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Resolution Copper is blocking comments and hiding replies from anyone calling out what they’re doing at Oak Flat. They’re trying to mine on sacred Native American land, with the government’s help, and don’t want the public to push back.

Unhinged

In his Easter message, President Zelenskyy raises an existential question that many Ukrainians have had for years: “how can we not lose faith after everything we're going through?” After all the suffering and devastation. The answer is hope — something strong inside you that keeps you from giving up

My weekend take on Kilmar’s case: Do Americans believe in cruelty? Are we cruel? Do we want our children to be cruel? Forget about the politics of Kilmar. This is a question about whether we are going to make Trump‘s cruelty our own. open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...

Dem politicians who are doing something and saying something to oppose Trump’s attacks on American democracy are quickly rising in the estimation of voters. Those calling those efforts a “distraction” or providing cover for Trump are quickly squandering their political capital.

I have confidence that Madison, Hamilton, and Jay would have agreed with us that a far better name for Sean Davis’s publication would be “The Fascist.”

During the Friday night hearing, DOJ's Ensign told Judge Boasberg "he understood there would be no flights Friday night and that he was 'not aware of any plans' for flights on Saturday ... AT THE SAME TIME, the ICE buses were nearing their approach to the airport exit."

On Easter Sunday, we celebrate joy, hope, and our faith in renewal — even through the darkest of times. To all those celebrating today, our family wishes you a happy Easter.
