Fascism didn't come out of nowhere. We are living a formula that has been lived for generations. Once upon a time, it was the Jews who were the key to unlocking that formula. Today, it is immigrants.My Until we unpack that, fascism is here to stay. My latest:

Van Hollen: "If the president gets to shred the Constitution and ignore the Supreme Court in this case, it is a very short path to the president ignoring court orders in other cases. So every American should care about this."

Billerica MA showed up! #handsoff

Disgusting….RFK Jr. fired the entire staff of the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)….cruelty is the point and always has been t.co/DDrag1YQoV

And loving America means fighting to make it better.

Murphy: "Newsflash: These guys are incompetent. They don't know what they're doing. We hired a weekend Fox News host with no diplomatic or management experience with a checkered personal history of abuse and alcoholism to be our chief national security official. And it's going very badly."

Cory Booker. 👇👇👇

An excellent emendation to Paul, Weiss’s Wikipedia page. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul,_W...

Greenland thanks Hegseth for shutting Vance up…

No matter your station in life, there is astoundingly little separating you from those men in that cage behind Kristi Noem. No charges, no attorneys, no hearings, no trial. Just conjecture and brute force could be enough to justify completely dehumanizing you, too.

JUST IN: The 9th circuit court of appeals won’t clear the way for the mass firing of probationary employees at six key federal departments, leaving in place a lower court’s order reinstating thousands of terminated workers.

SCOOP: Court filings show that from the earliest days of the second Trump administration, Elon Musk's DOGE had a plan to infiltrate US Treasury payment systems—and turn them against USAID.

Himes: "Apparently all this mayhem is cheered by the president of the United States and by 20-somethings with laptops and names like Big Balls. But I've been doing this for a long time, and I know that Moscow and Beijing and Tehran and Pyongyang cannot believe their luck."

This isn't how gov't is supposed to work: The acting commissioner of Social Security admitted “I was ticked at the governor of Maine for not being real cordial to the president,” so I ended a program in Maine. www.pressherald.com/2025/03/25/s...

This is a real Truth Social post from Trump sharing a screenshot of an Elon Musk tweet. So if you were wondering, this is what they’ve decided to go with regarding today’s debacle🙃

"Right now, there is a decision this country needs to make. Will this be a country of rule of law? Or will it be a country of rule of billionaires?" -FTC Commissioner @bedoyaftc.bsky.social, who was one of two Democratic FTC members illegally fired by Donald Trump.

This is real.

Even if you think Paul Weiss and Columbia made the only choice available to them in the circumstances (and that's not what I think, to be clear), you have to recognize that there's no future for our democracy if every powerful institution approaches official extortion in this way.

Under threat from Trump, Columbia University agrees to policy changes. Columbia put its Middle East studies department under new supervision and overhauled its rules for protests and student discipline, acquiescing to an extraordinary ultimatum by Trump. #MomSky apnews.com/article/colu...

NONE of this is normal

BREAKING: 34,000 people have showed up in Denver, Colorado this evening to see Bernie Sanders and AOC fight oligarchy and authoritarianism.
