Judge Ho said NO to DOJ’s attempted corrupt dismissal of Eric Adams’ case. Usually prosecutors and criminal defendants are ADVERSARIES. But because Trump DOJ henchman Emil Bove is on defendant Adams’ side, Judge Ho appointed Paul Clement to be on the side of the American people. Points of light.

I’ll never forget courageous students at Virginia Commonwealth University walking out of their own commencement ceremony last year to protest against KKK GOPer Glenn Youngkin as he was speaking. This is how all GOP fascists should be treated.

Donald Trump can do a lot of things. Bending my will…or yours…is NOT one of them. You have to make the decision to do that, for him. Just refuse to do so. They can take everything, but we’ll still have our will. With that, we can do ANYTHING.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

"The larger dynamic is that Trump isn’t merely pushing to redefine the boundaries of the law or even the Constitution," Jonathan Chait writes. "He is rejecting the principle that the law constrains him at all."

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Elections in Ukraine must be held only after sustainable peace is achieved, ensuring a free, fair, and democratic process that reflects the will of the people, writes Olga Aivazovska of Civil Network OPORA in her op-ed.

Three weeks ago I told you, “Republicans WILL turn on the Trump admin!” I meant it. It’s been happening every day. The pace is quickening.

A former Soviet intelligence officer alleges Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.” Alnur Mussayev served in the 6th Directorate, responsible for counter-intelligence support in the economy. One key objective was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.”

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

Hey @rachelgilmore.bsky.social, I know this is a US initiative, but maybe you could convince them to go international?

This is really something

As former GOP Congresswoman Liz Cheney so eloquently said in a January 6th Committee hearing, “To my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible: There will come a time when Donald Trump is gone. But your dishonor will remain.” #ResistTrump

EDITORIAL | Why The Independent will not be silent in the face of Trump’s assault on truth and democracy

Republican Senators who voted for RFK Jr. have the best healthcare in the world, paid for by you. They don’t care about what’s going to happen to your kids, your parents, or you.

Simply horrible people (every single one ) and a confluence of musk world and maga that brought it about.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

Last night in my newsletter, Civil Discourse, I used presidential polling numbers to show that Trump isn't inevitable. We can find our way out of this. joycevance.substack.com/p/on-being-i...

"Donald Trump and Elon Musk never believed in anyone’s free speech except their own," David A. Graham writes in the Atlantic Daily:

"Presidents only get so much political capital. Trump has decided to invest his finite capital into supporting Putin's authoritarian regime in Moscow..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

"Key congressional Republicans have powers they’re choosing not to use... "Senator Susan Collins, for example, believes the White House and DOGE may be breaking the law. She doesn’t, however, seem eager to use her considerable influence..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Last week, she was exclusively interviewing Pierre Poilievre. This week, she was linking the Delta plane crash in Toronto to DEI in a social media post. Just...sickening. Let's talk about the truth behind these "meritocracy" arguments: youtu.be/0e745p8UKQY

Trump is Team Putin.

"Let’s focus on the global about-face, because however grievous the other depredations, they are, at least in theory, reversible. Abandoning world leadership is not." And focus we will. Your must-read of the day:

Trickle up economics.

Hello folks! Once again I’m preparing for my Friday newsletter “ask and act” where you ask questions about what’s going on in the world, and I tell you what we can do about it. Here is last weeks edition 👇🏼 Let me know what you want to know about! open.substack.com/pub/oliviaju...

The hypocrisy of the GOP knows no bounds 👇

Trump’s vicious attack on President Zelenskyy is an attack on democracy. Zelenskyy has shown the world what heroism.Trump is a convicted pervert and felon. Trump and Putin are gangsters. We are now in a global fight to defend the democratic order. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRsf...

Need a Project 2026 that reaffirms actual American values and reclaims, just as aggressively, the territory that our enemies paid to capture. However, it must not rebuild what they are destroying the same way. We can do much better than the system that allowed this to happen.
