Moshe Feldenkrais's statement "Make the impossible, the possible easy, the easy elegant" applies to so much more than undoing cerebral palsy movement patterns.

Dear Fearful Republican Senators, I understand you are afraid. Studies on the neuroscience of politics show that those who think conservatively are paralyzed in a situation like this, but that is just your brain talking. Be brave. Don't listen to it or him. Do the right thing.

A leader is shaped by resilience, vision, integrity, and the ability to unite in hardship. Trump? Shaped by tantrums, lies, golf carts, and a spray tan routine. Leadership demands strength; he demands Diet Coke.

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

Democratic politicians aren't reacting with urgency because they're listening to the 80% of their voters who don't know what's going on. Maybe go crazy and do something different for a change: Listen to the minority who know what's going on. Because they're telling you this is a four-alarm fire.

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.” Who needs a gallon of ketchup?

A good mantra: What is the smallest step I can take today that will create the greatest impact?

The DOJ is now ripping pages out of the Banana Republic handbook, demanding its prosecutors drop charges on NYC Mayor Adams b/c he met with DJT & agreed to deport immigrants. Alex, I'll take Quid pro Quo fr $400 Adams is charged w/ taking bribes from foreign nationals www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...

Cuff these "DOGE" dipsh*ts up immediately next time. That's the treatment we've gotten in the past for hacks. Make no mistake, this isn't any different. It's a low level SE attempt.

Stuart worked on 5 Republican presidential campaigns.

The Trump-led sovereign wealth fund (SWF) is not an economic safeguard but a state-capture apparatus. Masked as public good, it centralizes wealth under executive control, enabling elite extraction and shielding kleptocracy behind legal opacity. This is authoritarian asset seizure.

Rise with purpose. Push through doubt. Every challenge is a chance to grow.

Never. Forget. Never. Forgive. ✨

The resilience of the people is the foundation of freedom. No chain is unbreakable when unity and courage fuel the struggle. Oppression endures only when submission prevails—rise, resist, reclaim.

Beware of the tactic leading you to external apps like Telegram for “exclusive” information. It isolates you from diverse sources, exposes you to manipulation, and weakens your critical distance. Demand transparency—if it matters, it can be said here. Stay vigilant.

The Trump SWF is not national investment; it is state-sponsored looting. It weaponizes financial sovereignty to launder oligarchic wealth, converting public assets into private fiefdoms. This is not capitalism—it is autocratic wealth exfiltration.

Telegram collaborates with Russian authorities; we reiterate, do not use Telegram. Furthermore, no legitimate Anonymous account should invite you to join a Telegram channel or any other external application. Be wary of those posing as Anonymous, as they often seek to deceive and exploit you.

Folks, if you're outraged about this, make a call. If you have a GOPer on House or Senate FRC, call them, and read them some of these stories. foreignaffairs.house.gov/subcommittee... www.foreign.senate.gov/about/member... Otherwise, try to share w/local news.

📌I was the managing editor at Stars and Stripes and can tell you that Pete Hegseth is the first SecDef I am aware of to be openly booed by military families on a military base. 📌This is the most significant pushback I have seen to this administration's racist, hostile initiatives.

The Trump admin says ICE has custody of migrants sent to Guantanamo, but it's DOD guards in Camp 6, a war-on-terror prison. It won't say who is being held incommunicado there, but we are publishing a list of 53 men in Camp 6. w/ @carolrosenbergnyt.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...
