He doesn’t care if people suffer. He just cares about never admitting he’s wrong.

If you’re in a position to stand up to Trump today, try not to be a pussy.

It's important to remember that the soldiers back in Nazi Germany who ran the camps ended up still getting hanged for "following orders".

Have you heard anyone in DC openly tell MAGA that they're going to be held accountable for what they're doing? You've seen our crowds. Nobody is going to tolerate this third term run nonsense.

Good morning resisters Canada’s federal election is just around the corner ❤️🇨🇦 April 28th is the day that we will either move forward with Mark Carney or go back with PP the Trump wannabe It’s a no 🧠er. Mark Carney is the clear choice! Your life depends on it #MarkCarney4PM #NeverPierrePoilievre

I have the same suspicion. Both this and the decision to send planes to El Salvador on March 15 in spite of Boasberg's order seem to come from him. Then he goes out and shrieks on TV, including on TV that SCOTUS watches.

NEW: Unemployment fears hit worst levels since Covid as tariffs fuel inflation outlook, Fed survey shows. This is 100% Trump and the GOP. www.cnbc.com/2025/04/14/u...

I have never in my life heard a US president lie and disparage a former presidency like this Mother Fucker does every day! #trumpTraitor #trumpAssHole

You don’t have to be particularly sharp to decipher the code here. But if you need someone to say it, this is a major technology company and a sizable defense and intelligence contractor publicly declaring, with only the thinnest patina of deniability, that its cause is white nationalism.

After the attack on Shapiro’s residence, I feel like it’s important to remind people how easy it is for people to become irrevocably radicalized online. Right wing media (both “new” and legacy) is using the same tactics we see groups like Al-Qaeda use to recruit.

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

How many Republicans will complain the "coolest dictator" didn't wear a tie in the Oval Office? NONE! Because they need the torture prison in El Salvador to slake their thirst for extreme cruelty.

A reminder that it isn't just Trump. It's every collaborator, co-conspirator, and accomplice who is assisting him or letting it happen without putting up a fight, whether they are Republicans, MAGAts, Democrats, Independents, or non-voters.

April 20th is around the corner. Many of us think it will be the day the regime declares martial law. Are you prepared for that? Do you have supplies? Do you have ways to keep you and your family safe? Link to this great vets prep videos www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjRNhJpt/ #SheShed #Voices4Victory

Trump is waging war against professionals, intellectuals, scientists, education, writes Franklin Foer. We've seen this movie before - in Mao's China www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

This can’t happen soon enough. He’s an aspiring, modern-day Heinrich Himmler.

You can learn a lot from history. Like the fact that some things don’t change. PS. The governor and the judges photographed here as a part of the Old Boys Golf Club were all Republicans. PPS. Looks kind of like Harlan Crow’s gatherings, doesn’t it?

L - The official photo from the Kremlin of US Special Envoy @SteveWitkoff putting his hand over his heart as he greets his friend Vladimir Putin again this week. R - Putin’s latest missile attack killing at least 21 people, including 7 children, on Palm Sunday. Putin’s stooge.

Senator Sanders and Reps. Ocasio-Cortes, Jayapal, and Khanna rising to the occasion.

This is a version of the great white replacement theory - a racist conspiracy belief. Stephen Miller claims the Biden administration deliberately flew “illegal aliens” into the country so they could vote. And Elon Musk, a superspreader of conspiracism and extremism, endorsed Miller’s claims.

Trump has been trying to bully Maine Governor Janet Mills. A fight he is not winning. Her unwillingness to back down, similar to Boston Mayor @wutrain.bsky.social, is a lesson that could be well learned by some universities and law firms in our midst. 1/ www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/12/s...

Trump’s isolationist policies risk ruining America’s reputation on the global stage & China is ready to reposition itself to take America’s place as a manufacturing & trade leader. @ianbremmer.com joins me at 10A ET to break it down. #Velshi

Even doge admits Elon musk is cutting cancer research

In recent weeks, the number of people travelling from Europe to the U.S has plummeted — by as much as 35%. The sharp decline in tourism is a direct response to Trump’s punishing policies — including tariffs and the horrific treatment of immigrants and foreigners.

ICYMI, new piece/thread from me:

How it started // How it’s going

Trump: Will you and your family be celebrating next Sunday? Aide: Yup! Easter is one of the kids’ favorite holidays. Trump: (writing out a birthday card to Hitler) What the hell is Easter?

The fear among academics and lawyers now talking on the record on just about any topic that involves the federal government or the White House is really extraordinary and worrisome, and getting worse, it seems to me, every week. Dissent by an establishment figures becoming verboten in the US

Tale as old as time. Big businesses who make friends with the kleptocrats get special exemptions from the regulatory burdens so they can lock in their market position, rather than removing the regulatory burdens across the board.

Russia is still committing war crimes pretty much every day.

As I’ve said, yes, this was their aim all along. That’s why they didn’t just send these people to Gitmo. This is an attempt to find a step beyond Gitmo where the court says, “Well, our hands are tied.” It’s an awful, lawless gambit that must fail, but that is what they want it to be.

People have recently started boycotting the products of the rich elites. The only contribution the far right has made to the world is, to some degree, saving people from the consumerist frenzy created by capitalism. LOL!

"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...

Homeless workers now have to submit *proof of employment* to be allowed to sleep in their cars in one of the richest counties in the U.S. Welcome to America: people shivering overnight in subzero temperatures, steps from luxury ski resorts, for the privilege of keeping the local economy booming.

In Iran if a 12-year-old girl is raped and impregnated by her father, she must carry the baby to term, or be thrown in prison for life. Wait, sorry, no. That's Mississippi.

Bring him home…👇 No more excuses. Bring. Home. Abrego. Now. ✨ #BringHomeAbrego

Do YOU think this is part of the problem?

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego

Exiling people beyond the protection of US law without due process is not only unconstitutional, it's a rejection of the entire American revolutionary project. Sending people "beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences" is one of the grievances enumerated in the Declaration of Independence.
