In 100 days, he's demonized Canada, Greenland, Mexico, Denmark, NATO, Ukraine, Harvard and higher education, PBS and NPR; tainted the integrity of the Kennedy Center; turned Social Security, a well-run apolitical department, into an unresponsive debacle. And his wrecking ball has just begun.

The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

If you care more about a car being vandalized than a person with legal status being deported to an El Salvadoran prison, you might be Pam Blondi.

We’re weary of hearing our leaders regurgitate the horrors we already know. We don’t need better messaging; we need elected surrogates who will aggressively confront and challenge, legally and creatively. Who will spend every waking hour working to stop this regime, not talk about it.

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

Time to start impeachment proceedings. If the Supreme Court doesn’t matter, we do not have a working democracy. If we cozy up to an El Salvadoran thug, what are we?

"It's a highly deceptive world that constantly asks you to comment but doesn't really care what you have to say. The illusion of participation can sometimes lead to participation. But more often than not only leads to more illusion dressed in the guise of reality.” David Levithan

What a contrast between how our allies get treated versus little dictators like Bukele. Not a word about him not wearing a suit either, as he petitions the US to expand his country’s mercenary penal colony by sending him more money.

Christian nationalism opposes public assistance to the poor, unless the money passes through church coffers, denies the science that human contributions to greenhouse gases causes global warning, opposes gun regulation, favors privatization of schools.

Subjective take on social media in mid-April 2025: X is a doubly polluted, dangerous cesspool. Threads peaked; posts fail to inspire traction. Facebook shadow bans and loses people weekly. The Post collapsed and disappeared. This is what we've got left.

So Aimee Lou Wood is upset that her intentionally uncorrected overbite invited imitation on SNL. Famously, AG Janet Reno enjoyed her brutal impersonation, even tolerating Farrell copying her palsy, Parkinson's that would take her life. Love your teeth, Ms. Wood but laugh at yourself, too. Be a Reno.
