Elon Musk’s DOGE goons just seized control of grants.gov—locking out agency officials and grabbing oversight of $500B in federal grants. They're using it to defund diversity, punish universities, and block aid to immigrants. 1/2

NEW: The Trump admin confirms that Columbia junior Yunseo Chung is the redacted name in Marco Rubio's letter declaring her and Mahmoud Khalil threats to US foreign policy. The letter came only two days after her arrest at a Barnard pro-Palestinian sit-in. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Greg Abbott’s stalling the TX-18 election to help Trump’s agenda—keeping a safe Dem seat empty for 7 months. @isaiahrmartin.bsky.social isn’t just another name on a ballot—he’s the next-gen fighter. He’s calling Abbott out and ready to raise hell in Congress for people the GOP tries to silence.

QUID: Tim Cook donates $1,000,000 to Donald's inaugural slush fund. PRO QUO: Tim Cook's #1 revenue generator is exempt from crippling tariffs on goods made in China. #Corruption

Ron DeSantis funneled $10M from a Medicaid settlement into his wife's nonprofit, which promptly used it to fight a weed ballot initiative he opposed. Now he's raging at lawmakers demanding answers. It reeks of corruption, and subpoenas are likely. Another petty tyrant caught red-handed. 1/2

Trump's EPA just moved to reverse state and local bans on toxic "forever chemicals" that can lead to birth defects and cancer.  So much for "Make America Healthy Again." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/05/trump-pfas-toxic-forever-chemicals

North Carolina Governor Josh Stein said that FEMA will stop matching 100% of the money for Hurricane Helene recovery in North Carolina. Donald Trump’s administration refused Stein’s request to extend its 100% reimbursement period for another 180 days calling it “unwarranted.” Appalling.

Big news: The North Carolina Supreme Court rejected the GOP's challenges to tens of thousands of ballots... but *accepted* GOP's challenge to thousands of overseas ballots — all cast only in 4 blue counties — which could (likely?) be enough to overturn the supreme court race.

This right here 🔥 “If there was market manipulation, it is a crime. Someone needs to go to jail… I want the documents. I want the Signal chats too, because I don’t trust them — that they weren’t sharing all this information across their Signal chats.” – @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Palantir, AKA Peter Thiel. He is salivating because he wants to rule everything and have people beg for a slice of bread at the corner of slave street. These people are greedy and evil.

Democracy isn’t dying in darkness it’s being dismantled at the hands of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social won this election fair and square back in November. Her opponent is a petulant Confederate cosplayer who can’t handle losing. Concede Jefferson Griffin.
