The MAGA crowd is now calling to ignore the conservative-majority Supreme Court — and arrest anyone who enforces its ruling. Really? This is what fascism looks like.

NEW: A draft Trump executive order radically slashes the State Dept. under Rubio. It calls for eliminating Africa operations and embassies; using AI in policy making; and closing the bureau of democracy and human rights and that of refugees. We got a copy. Gift link: nyti.ms/4jpcBJM

Donald Trump dedicated his Easter message to attacking the “Radical Left Lunatics,” “the worst and most incompetent President,” “Sleepy Joe Biden,” and once again falsely claimed he won the 2020 election. Ah yes, the true spirit of Easter: rage-posting about your political enemies.

Right-wingers from the fringe to Fox News are rolling out a new argument in favor of Trump’s tariffs — they will help boost America’s masculinity by promoting the sort of backbreaking blue-collar work that their fathers did.

SCOOP: The Trump admin appears to be going into a visa database to quietly change students' immigration status. It's coming entirely by surprise — setting students up to be detained without warning. It's Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk — on a wider scale.

If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you. If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you. If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you. We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out.

Between the arrogant tech twerps who think “we’ve got this,” and the malicious characters behind them who want the system to break, so they can fix it through privatizing with tech bros and private equity, there’s a LOT to worry about here.

If you’re okay with a woman being snatched off the street for free speech and peaceful protest and detained with no due process …you have fully lost the plot on what AMERICA is supposed to be.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans...and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. Who are the real freeloaders?

I hate to break this news to Schumer, but if Repub Senators won’t strongly condemn & investigate such a blatant breach of national security at the highest levels during the first military action taken by the Trump Admin, they aren’t going to rebel when they defy court orders.

One of the smartest people I know received a top score on a big NIH grant that was so good it was converted to an even bigger grant to do super important work on earlier cancer detection. But she’s not going to see a dime because they don’t actually want to make America healthier at all.
