Trump's betrayal of the legacy of America's victory in WWII is an unbelievable gift to his opponents who can tap into one of the richest veins of cultural production in US history—WWII nostalgia & rememberance propaganda—to mobilize supporters. 'He's spitting on the graves of our grandfathers!'

I'm going to need a Republican politician to explain to me how they ever see us going back to a functioning legislative process again now that they have rendered the process moot and sucked any good faith out of it. I know there's no good answer, but I want to see them try.

New in PN: Unelected billionaire breaks laws to "restore" democracy "In reality, most of what Musk is up to is flatly illegal. Most egregiously, his deletion of entire depts & Trump’s refusal to spend as directed by Congress violates the Constitution. That’s why multiple courts have enjoined them."

Having read it a bit more closely, I can say that it's far more than a nothingburger; every single source they cite, to a one, directly contradicts their claim that birthright citizenship might not extend to the children of unlawful aliens.

So, a bit of reality for those who are watching Trump lawsuits. A what to expect/understand if you will. By way of background, I have worked in civil litigation on the side of people for decades. I have a lot of experience with class action cases.

I’m sure it’s just my TDS, but I think Trump is proving to be exactly as bad as we said he was going to be and people who acted like we were hysterical should be embarrassed they didn’t do more to try and stop it.

George Washington in 1796 on rising lawless and factionalism: “cunning, ambitious and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.”

Once again I am leaving the Munich Security Conference in a low mood. Amongst all the noise, the US signalled their plans for Europe, so things are becoming clearer. But things are clearly not good. This is what we now know, and what we have to do about it:🧵1/17

“Many farmers voted for Trump [b/c] he promised less regulation and greater prosperity for America’s farmers. The hard truth … like most of the folks who voted for Trump, farmers failed to do their homework about the reality” of the Trump regime. What betting on the farm & losing looks like. 😬

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

We do not debate fascists to win them over. We debate them to ensure that onlookers—those still capable of thought—see their hollowness exposed to the light. Let them speak, and let them be humiliated by the force of truth and ridicule. Simple truths.
