Criminalizing opposition is how Putin, Erdoğan, Orbán, and so many other authoritarian strongmen ended democracy. Conservative and Liberal Americans do not want to live in a country where the President can pervert state power to crush opponents. We reject this lawless rampage.

Newsom: In 2023, Californians contributed $83.1 billion more to the federal government than we received back. And for your viewers: that other state—Texas—took $71.1 billion more than it contributed to the federal government. California: $83 billion, contributor. Texas: taker.

This so directly out of the Nazi playbook. The very obvious plan is to get rid of the independent accreditors and put all universities under jurisdiction of the federal government. This is how Hitler took over German academia and made it a wing of his party.

I don’t see this getting much coverage, but DeSantis straight-up stole $10M in Medicaid $$ meant for poor Floridians & funneled it into a “charity” run by his wife. That cash then got laundered into dark money PACs. This is theft. He should be in prison. www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...
