Caving to these guys will not save you. You will alienate your core consumers, and then lose autonomy as these proto-autocrats push for more acquiescence

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

In case you’ve forgotten how we used to treat this sort of thing… There would be bipartisan calls for investigations Impeachment would be a foregone conclusion Several people would’ve resigned or been fired by end of day Back when responsible adults were in charge, not this insane clown posse

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.

Holy shit: the weirdo running Social Security added administrative burdens to service delivery in Maine after its Governor disagreed with Trump over trans athletes. The idea that public services should be provided consistently and honestly seems beyond them. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/24/u...

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

“Sometimes I’ll post a news tip, and I’ll get a bunch of replies asking for the source. I have to be like, ‘I am the source. Me! I am the reporter.’ Some people don’t think news is real unless it’s attached to a New York Times or a Washington Post link.”

ICE misread the tattoos of an apparently innocent man and the U.S. government deported him without due process to a Salvadoran prison for terrorists last week. It is obscenely irresponsible to suggest we are not yet in uncharted territory.

So the Trump administration’s argument is that this dude, not a court, should have the final say on who ends up in an El Salvadoran prison. Does that make you feel safer in America?

So we’ve got two competing schools of what the Democratic Party should do next. One of them is hosting the largest political rallies in history in places like New Hampshire and Arizona, and the other one just got $120 million from Silicon Valley and is on a book tour.

Outright lie from Bondi, whose on Department of Justice submitted a sworn declaration that “many” of the people sent to El Salvador had no criminal record of history in the United States at all.

The whole point is not just the state disappearing whoever they want, it's you being in the habit of accepting the state choosing whom to disappear, without question. It's submission to the state. Same as with Gitmo after 9/11. The state's judgment must not be questioned.

If a law firm won't risk everything to defend itself, what makes you think it will risk anything to defend you? My advice: Find a law firm that will not back down and will never bend a knee.

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks… “The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government. 🧵

This ridiculous deflection is such a non sequitur. Due process is what distinguishes us as a people from the monsters who do commit heinous crimes. If there’s no due process, we’re a society that can just lynch people on an accusation, with no need to get it right.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Trump's only move. Blackmail. He's doing it to everyone: law firms, companies, colleges, states, Canada, NATO, Ukraine. He was impeached in the first term for it. It's the only "art of the deal" he's ever known: strongman mafioso extortion. He'll re-run the same play forever until America collapses.

What Mike Lee is saying here is bog standard, American neo-Nazism. Read any George Lincoln Rockwell publication from the 1960s and this will be the starting assumption from which everything else proceeds. And by “Marxist,” Rockwell meant “the Jews.”

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

Utterly insane for an academic institution to put the demands of fascist goons above the will and safety of its students. I’m sending my kid to college in 2026. Why would I send her to a place like Columbia?
