you and I might see this as a direct threat to living in an open society, and a horrendous insult to everyone who fought and died to kill fascism in Europe, but the dems will see this as a fundraising opportunity, and then do nothing

@washingtonpost: Analysis by Aaron Blake: Republican lawmakers have been remarkably reluctant to say anything critical of President Donald Trump. With foreign policy, many Republicans are criticizing Trump in a way they have generally avoided.

This is unheard of in American history. Absolutely insane in peace time.

We need to organize a protest right fucking now. This is blatantly illegal. Trump has zero authority to do this. Over my dead fucking body.

Right in front of our eyes, we’re seeing the destruction of the US, and the beginning of a dictatorship run by a career criminal & his enablers, drawn from the worst among us. Nobody seems to be taking effective action against this, while many calmly accept this fate like lambs led to the slaughter.

“Not wavering” under the pressure of the White House actually is an achievement and one that’s worth praising. It’d be nice if other media outlets cared about journalism enough to stand alongside them.

"They're putting persecuted Christian refugees in camps in the jungle" sounds like something Glenn Beck would accuse the Obama administration of doing and yet now it's a pillar of the Republican agenda.

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

Wow. Mike Lawler met with the Westchester County Legislature today and when JOSE ALVARADO - an elected County Legislator and Vice Chair - brought up concerns about ICE, Lawler actually wondered out loud whether Alvarado was a citizen or not! #NY17

RFK's not-so-veiled threat to take mental health drugs away is even worse than it looks at first blush. He wants to replace these medications with labor camps. This fits with the larger, eugenics-informed Trump/Musk agenda. www.salon.com/2025/02/19/r...

Chancellor Crystal Hines Martin of Hinds County, Mississippi has issued a prior restraint order so ludicrously unconstitutional it’s only consistent with deliberate misconduct or abject ignorance of the relevant law. Disgraceful and lawless. /1

I lost my job at the National Science Foundation yesterday, along with 167 of my colleagues, including some dear friends. This was the best job I've ever had, and I thought it would be my last. The PI community has been sympathetic and supportive, without exception. I will miss working for you.
