Take a minute to read this whole deep-dive on Brad Schimel's no-holds-barred loyalty to Donald Trump. This link is paywall-free. And then share it with anyone you know in Wisconsin—or who could donate or volunteer to help Susan Crawford in the April 1 Wi Sup Ct race. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/13/u...

Ho-ly crap. What a despicable thing to say. Good lord.

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

Just heard from a friend who is a true hero veteran. His company was destroyed in 30 days by the VA when they canceled 5 contracts without notice. 23 Americans mostly veterans out of work and a veteran owned small business destroyed. For nothing. They're dismantling the VA not "reforming" it.

I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing. This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it. No more looking away. Face up to what it is.

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen. Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !” globalnews.ca/news/9793403...

Hi Bluesky! Glad to be here.

Since we’re discussing states to add, I know a U.S. District that has a population greater than both Vermont and Wyoming that deserves a look.

The crisis of democracy didn't end with Trump's victory—it got worse. When North Carolina's state Supreme Court is blocking certification of a state Supreme Court election, the house is on fire.

It will never stop amazing me that the number of Trump-skeptical Republican/Conservative types who became PRO-Trump after January 6 is much, much larger than the number of pro-Trump R's who abandoned him after 1/6. I feel like this says something important about human nature. But I'm not sure what.

Reposting for posterity.

Trump going with 25% blanket tariffs on Canada and Mexico on day 1

Probably the best one item summary you’ll see

Just wanted to share my appreciation for those of you supporting me and @theleap.bsky.social. We had a lot of readers come to this story today from Bluesky, more than any other social platform. It does not go unnoticed how much you guys rock. THANK YOU for supporting our #Packers coverage.

The Packers look great! Go Pack Go!

I talked to Chris Murphy abt the trap Trump sets. He attacks elections, they defend democratic instititions He attacks vaccines, they defend pharmaceuticals He attacks the reporters, they defend the media It may be virtuous. but Dems become the status quo party www.thebulwark.com/p/sen-murphy...
