As historians will note in ways that our first draft of history does not — the irony is that there is no one more responsible than McConnell for just about everything about this Trump presidency — starting with the fact that it was even possible. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

We hang together or we hang separately. Could not be clearer what is happening and how universities must respond.

Random observation - the President of the United States *is the exogenous shock.

One week ago, Susan Crawford won in Wisconsin—despite the biggest flood of attacks Musk and Trump could throw at her. Voters showed that they're going to fight back. That's only going to accelerate until the people doing all this to the country lose power. And then we rebuild.

Trump’s tariffs are the largest middle class tax increase in over 50 years. These tariffs are crashing the economy, raising costs & wiping out retirement savings of middle-class families. Now Congress is trying to gut Medicaid, food assistance & veteran benefits. C’mon, explain it to us, Johnson.

I am proud of the law firms that are defending themselves and the legal profession from Trump’s lawless orders. The law is in their side.

Half of all Americans die in hospice care. Easy money and a lack of regulation transformed a crusade to provide death with dignity into an industry rife with fraud and exploitation. (Published 2022)

A reasonable concern.

"In military operations, failing to account for the enemy’s likely response is a cardinal sin. Yet we are witnessing that same shortfall in the economic domain." www.thebulwark.com/p/tariffs-we...

People in other countries know exactly what is going on

BREAKING: Speaker Hakeem Jeffries just threw DOWN the gauntlet—challenging Trump’s little Johnson to a one-on-one debate TOMORROW on the GOP’s extremist budget. Let’s see if MAGA’s puppet has the guts to defend cuts to seniors, vets, & working families. We. The. People. Are. Watching.

To make matters even worse, the Court vacated the TROs based upon a close-to-frivolous substantive argument that's inconsistent w/a binding SCOTUS precedent (Pedreiro) the Court doesn't so much as mention. (See Point 2 & the FN of the post below.) Augurs ill. www.justsecurity.org/109967/supre...

My take. wapo.st/3R3LsPZ

Trump’s fascination with acquiring land and natural resources — and bringing back manufacturing — is a bizarre anachronism at a time when economic competition is increasingly based on advances in robotics, clean energy, AI and other cutting-edge technologies. wapo.st/3R3LsPZ

Man Who Bumped Tesla While Parallel Parking Sentenced To Death

I want to post this again. DOJ had sent Marshals to her home (they were called off) to warn her not to testify yesterday. She testified anyway. Bondi's DOJ is a weapon. Oyer testified anyway. Keep repeating that. She did it anyway. F--k Bondi. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

“The United States has become a secret-police state. Trust me, I’ve seen it before.” - @mashagessen.bsky.social

Experts on fascism say only 3.5% of the ppl can stop a fascist takeover. Let’s keep it up!! “We have a republic if we can keep it” (Ben Franklin). No kings!! No betrayal of the Constitution!

My @gsnhindivisible.bsky.social Indivisible Group are coordinating a protest in Exeter NH for that day!! Follow us for details!!!

“A trillion comments have been wasted accusing the wrong people of Trump derangement syndrome. The real TDS afflicts those who keep seeing a rational actor, or an economic chess game, where none exists.” Me on Trump’s wrecking ball. www.ft.com/content/9f51...

As trillions of dollars in corporate value evaporates and President Trump’s support in the business world is cracking, even Republican members of Congress are debating whether to take away the president’s power to wage a trade war. Listen to "The Daily."

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Did you not think he was going to attack other countries, target his perceived enemies, abuse civil liberties & minorities, tank our economy and destroy what was left of our dignity & democracy? He’s been waiting 78 years to do this it’s gonna destroy the USA unless we stop him.

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

Mark Carney says he has 'seen this movie before', and believes that the US economy is heading for a Brexit-style downturn www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/us-...

I will pay any tariff for a framed copy of this

Reminder: We are not at war with Venezuela. The people deported are not enemies. The law in question should not apply. Among the most dangerous aspects of the SCOTUS ruling is the idea that the president and his people have the right to arbitrarily determine who our enemies are.

He "is not looking for an off-ramp."

Hilarious @michaelcohen212.bsky.social take on which “medicine” Trump may be thinking about when it comes to the economy. One pill does come to mind. Watch: youtube.com/watch?v=wQKw...

Three children and their mother have been released from federal custody after being detained by immigration enforcement agents last month at an upstate New York dairy farm.

NOAA provides notices of extreme & fast-moving weather threats like haboobs, monsoons, flash flooding and wildfires. Trump's cuts at NOAA are dumb and dangerous—they give emergency responders less time to act and put lives at risk. www.kjzz.org/politics/202...

Let’s nutshell it!

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

We fight to give hope — a reminder that there are still those within the government standing up for what’s right. Since Saturday, we’ve faced relentless attacks. We know there will be consequences for our actions, but we will not back down.

No one could have predicted

lol

Last time he told you not "not to worry" half a million Americans died of Covid.

Your money is decreasing. Your chance of measles is increasing. Are we great yet?

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

We wouldn’t be here if SCOTUS had allowed the January 6th trial to go forward as scheduled.

Welcome !
