Commentary: It isn’t just the DEI or climate grants getting the axe from President Trump. Science agencies face up to 55% cuts across the board. This means Ohio students will be denied opportunities for cutting-edge careers given to previous generations buff.ly/rvom6rH

Elizabeth Chudleigh showed up nearly naked at a royal masque. She married a Duke *and* an Earl and went on trial for bigamy. She seized every chance to be the center of attention at a time when women were supposed to be models of gentle virtue. My latest newsletter: buttondown.com/charliejane/...

Republicans are predictably screaming about judicial overreach again, and it cannot be emphasized enough: if they think tariffs are so important and they have a popular mandate for them, there is nothing stopping them from passing them in Congress.

Emil Bove was also the key figure in dropping charges against Eric Adams in exchange for his political cooperation, causing seven professional prosecutors to resign rather than rubber stamp a dirty deal. Here's a @resist.bot to tell your senators to vote hell no.

Couple things: 1. Elon is full of shit. Ignore the credulous media. He won't stop wreaking havoc. 2. We're winning, but it will take time. Take to the street, fight back, make your voices heard. Dump your Tesla, sell your stock. Join a #TeslaTakedown protest or create your own at TeslaTakedown.com!

This is an important point! We have been in this "emergency" for months now and they keep delaying the tariffs! There is *nothing* stopping Trump from getting Congress to impose these tariffs in an unquestionably constitutional way!

NYC, it is happening here. ICE agents in plain clothes waited outside a courtroom earlier today to kidnap people.

reminder if you have a Senator on the Judiciary Committee: when you call, ask them to place a hold on the nom. ask them to follow Schiff's precedent of putting a hold on Martin (if he's your Senator, ask him to do it again) & talk about how much you liked that a hold was placed. 1/2

NEW: The pastor who led #TargetFast is calling for an electronic protest of Dollar General over its retreat from DEI policies, starting with flooding their email and phone lines to get them to change course. We can learn more, pledge to participate and get their contact info at targetfast.org.

We're still 2.5 weeks out from #NoKings and we are at *1200* events scheduled nationwide (and also in Canada and Europe). Trump wants a nice military parade for his birthday. We're going to make sure all he sees are photos of a much larger turnout of Americans telling him to fuck off.
