“At MGIMO, we were taught to cite international law while violating its spirit, to defend norms while dismantling them and to speak of peace while justifying and waging wars.” www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/04/14/i...

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

You lost your 401k... and did Trump make money doing it? He posted "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!" just hours before pausing the tariffs. It's time for everyone to ask House Republicans why they aren't fighting for an investigation into this.

Trump said if America elected the wrong president, the market would crash. Well...

Once you get into business with the Mob, you can never get out.

“We’d (who is we?) have to look at the Constitution” - the deep state of the people, by the people, for the people will be sure to make ourselves heard.

Swalwell: This is what kicking the shit out of fascism looks like

It is not a distraction - Trump is stating his intention and asserting there are means by which he can do it…

www.thecrimson.com/article/2025... The Harvard Crimson lays out the threat from Trump EO grabbing foreign students off the streets secreting them to LA prison. 30% of grad students and good number of faculty are foreign, now silenced and living in fear. Predicts soon the rest of us will suffer same.

ICYMI, new piece/thread from me:

Good morning. Listen, you have to just decide. They are not taking the Black Smithsonian. Resolve it in your spirit.

At a packed town hall Democratic Rep. Jim McGovern proposed a general strike to combat the Trump administration's assault on the federal government.

NEW: According to the @nytimes.com, the Trump administration is planning to argue that its invocation of the Alien Enemies Act allows it to enter the homes of any person who they believe are subject to the declaration WITHOUT A WARRANT. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u...

At some point the press needs to stop adopting right-wing framing that this is a "DEI purge" and call it what it is — white supremacist violence against our collective past. www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/...

Quite a fun moment when the security contractors who had been terminated by the USIP but had switched their allegiances to DOGE entered the property with an unconfiscated key and headed immediately to the gun safe.

Remember last time Trump was president and unmarked vans swept up people off the street and he tried to get the military to use force against protesters? If you think the administration's vindictive defiance will stop with immigrants, you're naive. Gift link: wapo.st/43Ssl2Q

Government waste: The Army Corps of Engineers knew that releasing water from two California reservoirs at a Trump's direction would not reach the southern part of the state as Trump promised but did it anyway on his order. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

What is the narrative of innocence?
