“We are going to need cross-movement solidarity, with the understanding that criminalization is the means by which this administration will seek to crush dissent, destroy lives, and obliterate movements.” Solid analysis as usual. Basically: welcome and protect each other, + shut the fuck up.

From the get go of the second Trump administration, it was clear that the president would try to pass a bunch of executive orders without any clear indication that he, or his trusted advisors, actually knew if it was legal. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/wha...

Authoritarian leaders scapegoat vulnerable communities to gain and consolidate power, but we have the power to defeat the threat. We catalogue the Trump admin’s attacks on trans and nonbinary people and what you can do for our LGBTQIA+ community and democracy.

Sunglasses in studio interview, slurred and halted speech, can’t find the words he wants to use, can’t seem to form a coherent sentence…. Generally I wouldn’t have an attitude about drug use, but this man’s high as a flippin’ kite, and currently looting the public coffers. Seems like a bad idea.

The White House X account was of course trolling, and provoking outraged responses like this is part of their goal. But there’s no contradiction in an act being trollish and unambiguously serious in its fascist intent and effect... latest @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2025/02/19/d...
