This, precisely, is what I think Dem voters want from their representatives: direct confrontation with people who are used to bullying others both as a matter of substance and style. You don't have to back down to these fucking clowns.

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more. The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law. No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

Every time I get a journalist call for comment now I close my remarks with “members of a government that believes it is not bound by the rule of law are not entitled to its protection.”

"Vote for the bill so that the president can refuse to spend the money you just voted for" is whole other level of saying the quiet part out loud.

Any Congressperson who votes for this is just voting for the abnegation of Congressional authority. Might as well just go home afterwards, because there's no point in hanging around and cosplaying a real legislature.

Campus disinvitations are fascism but the government singling out a legal immigrant he doesn't like and unlawfully deporting him is just the free marketplace of ideas

FEMA has canceled firefighter training amid uncertainty over Trump cuts. The agency is evaluating “programs and spending to ensure alignment” with Trump admin priorities. All in-person National Fire Academy courses are canceled effective immediately. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

If Trump dreams of erasing artificial lines of separation drawn many years ago, can I interest him in a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere

"Nothing prepares you for the first time you see a toddler in a jail. The media can desensitize some of us to seeing men, especially brown men, in prison scrubs and behind bars. But seeing a kid in that setting truly shocks the system. They don’t manufacture prison clothing for people that small"

If organs of state security and demagogues and mob leaders are acting in concert to crack down on dissent it is unequivocally fascist. I don’t mean this to be a polemic: it's the only appropriate term from political science and theory for this practice. www.unpopularfront.news/p/the-abduct...

You literally could not make this up. Xi is looking at US science policy in the 50s & 60s as a great success while Trump and an unelected Musk are literally gutting every remaining successful aspect of US science.

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

I've been pretty alarmist but even I thought the unlawful arrests of political enemies would take longer than 6 weeks.

The fact that Elon Musk doesn't realize that Free Agency Day is a much bigger deal on Twitter for NFL fans (and the league in general) than the Superbowl is proof positive that there's no reason for the league (or fans) to use it as their default social media platform when it comes to breaking news

This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

Trump is the author of this hell but he writex it with tools preserved, expanded, and ultimately sustained by first Obama and later Biden. Detaining a legal permanent resident for campus protest, under the flimsy pretense of aiding terror, can only be done with tools Bush built & Obama sustained.
