Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning. It's Fascism 101.

OMG: The DoJ is actually arguing that some people were deported using the AEA shortly after WWII was technically over, but because the president said the war was still ongoing, the courts conceded. HOW on EARTH is that at ALL similar to this?

AOC, @aoc.bsky.social, making the case for free speech alongside universal healthcare is so KEY for the left, because it's time progressives reclaimed the mantle of fighting for free speech from the faux free speech warriors of the right.

Look, vandalism is not the answer and it shouldn’t be tolerated but there’s something very wrong with an administration that cares far more about protecting a car than it does about protecting children from being shot in their classrooms.

NOW: motion hearing underway in Judge Boasberg's court on whether to vacate his TRO barring the Trump admin from deporting people under the Alien Enemies Act. JUDGE: "Did you not understand my statements in that hearing? Did you tell DHS it was an order from me to turn the planes around?"

Yesterday the DOJ continued to defy a federal judge by refusing to release information about the Venezuelans deported to El Salvador. This doesn’t look good for the administration, as they are hiding truth that everybody already knows — they are lying.

The Trump regime is threatening to shut down the Social Security Administration in response to a court ruling blocking DOGE from further infiltrating the agency. If your Social Security check is late or doesn't arrive at all, remember who is to blame.

This moment in our country's history is depressing, but it's also illuminating. We're finding out, in real time, whom among those in power will hedge their bets, trade complicity for personal preservation, and retreat into cowardice in the hopes they'll be spared. And we will remember their names.
