READ: They’re deporting pro-Palestine students, flirting with annexing Canada, and turning Gaza into a resort. It’s not satire. It’s the Trump doctrine: chaos, white supremacy, and genocidal theater. Rev. Graylan Hagler says: stay angry, stay loud, stay in the fight. mondoweiss.net/2025/04/cont...

👩🏻Why are young US folk fashier than ever before? Why is this happening? 🧔🏿‍♂️The US far-right wrote down detailed plans of why they wanted to ban schools from teaching that slavery was bad, the holocaust was bad, transphobia is bad, and being cruel to people to with physical disabilities is bad.

"When the government disregards our contracts, fires our members, and declares our painstakingly won rights to be nonexistent? We have the power of the strike. That is the one power that no president or court or employer can ever take away. Workers do the work, and they can stop doing the work."

I am once again begging people to realize that the law is words on paper and is not self executing. "That's illegal" is not and has never been synonymous with "that's impossible" or "that can't be done." "That's illegal" means "you might get in trouble for that depending on who you are."

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

This has nothing to do with my personal political preferences or beliefs about potential future candidates, it is just my armchair analysis, but we are still in a place where if someone like AOC were to emerge as a presidential candidate, even now their own party would organize to undermine them.

Mr. Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted by the Trump Admin and, by their own admission, wrongly deported to El Salvador. He shouldn’t have to spend another second away from his family. I'm flying to El Salvador tomorrow morning to check on his condition and discuss his return.

My colleague Randy "the Libertarian" Barnett is over at the other site approvingly quoting Christian nationalists, arguing that NGOs should be "banned," and suggesting that Harvard should lose its tax-exempt status because its ideological "sickness" is akin to Bob Jones's racial discrimination.

It uhh didn’t end well for him, but also Ryan is a great reminder of how much more shit Congressmen used to do. He took a job as a substitute teacher after watts riots to investigate conditions in schools. He went undercover at a jail to investigate conditions. You can just do things!

I'm really confused as to why people in 2025 are still claiming the G. Greenwald was a leftist???? He was a libertarian who at first supported the Iraq war. Later he hated drones but only when Obama was using them. I don't understand the revisionist history here.

I keep thinking about trauma. We know trauma shortens lives and reduces quality of what is left. I keep thinking even if the lawyers win and we get the students out of custody, even if the courts win and we get the immigrants back to their families, the trauma will last. Dehumanization haunts us.

It is time for Democrats to go on the attack, and take away tax-exempt status for every church that unabashedly campaigned for Trump. Take off the gloves, start to destroy the opposing institutions that fund the fascist movement.
