The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets. These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.

If you strip away the egos and shitposting, the Trump-Musk feud is really an argument over how comprehensively to screw over poor and working people—over how best to make our society a meaner, crueler, less equal, more savage place. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1962...

A family friend was once again lamenting how nothing she does will be enough so I asked what she is doing [legitimately curious] & she said 'following the news.' To me, this is the concept of "witnessing" run amok. I gently suggested perhaps she could focus on ONE thing in the news & take action.

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

Takes a lot of chutzpah to make a $290 million political donation, assume a powerful position in government, use that power to fire tens of thousands of people and do immeasurable harm to American state capacity, and expect not to have to answer for it afterwards.

DHS lawyers are doing an end run around asylum law while masked ICE agents detain citizens, deport sick children and terrorize immigrants doing it the right way. We’re a nation of immigrants searching for the American Dream. This xenophobic purge is lawless and un-American.
