Let’s be clear: This is yet another sign of the Trump administration’s crystal clear embrace of authoritarian ideas, practices, and influencers. From @davidcorn.bsky.social:

Asking Ukraine to negotiate with Putin is like asking the United States to negotiated with Bin Laden after 9-11.

Continued prayers for Pope Francis.

A pro-Hitler paid advertisement is being served to users of X, encouraging them to rethink their opinions of the genocidal Nazi leader.

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

The Lord loves the righteous; the Lord cares for the stranger; he sustains the orphan and widow, but frustrates the way of the wicked. (Psalm 146:8)

Great story from Noah Lanard. Why does Elon Musk keep amplifying white nationalists and racists? Anyone have an explanation for that? Whatever could it be? www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

"[Trump's DOJ] champions the cause of the bad guys, it slaps around career professionals for doing their jobs and upholding their oaths to the Constitution, and it communicates...that the Department has no higher interest than glorifying the President."

Posted around NYC, Chicago, DC and other cities. Be creative. Do something!

“Only a coward like Trump wld need to implement his vision through a stage-managed blitz of executive orders; he’s terrified of a deliberative process that wld expose his agenda as the malignancy that it is” — insightful piece by @dominicpreziosi.bsky.social @commonweal.bsky.social

Pete Buttigieg responds to Trump:

Anyone naive enough to think that the government can deny rights to one group without putting another’s at risk is in for some surprises. The Trump administration’s actions make clear that exploiting voters’ fears about trans people was part of a larger plan to undermine protections for other people

The campaign against trans rights is also about stripping away everyone’s protections against discrimination, reviving, as Douglass put it “the moral blindness” of those who “persuade themselves that they are safe, though the rights of others may be struck down.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Kamala Harris: NO NEW TAXES on anyone earning under $400,000. Trump: HIGHER TAXES on everyone earning under $360,000. See the difference? 👀

Did somebody think that their "Trump immunity" gave them license to pull a firearm on a police officer? If he did, it didn't turn out well for him.

There is literally a book written about this www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

No number of pardons or lies will change what happened on January 6. Donald Trump can’t change history. It was domestic terrorism, it was treason, plain and simple.

Donald Trump doing a favor for 1,500 criminals is what's known as a professional courtesy. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Donald Trump has many plans for his return engagement at the White House. They are starting right now and several will require police-state tactics.

I see that Melania chose to wear her Hamburglar hat to honor the criminals in the nation--and next to her.

They shut down their own app for a day, then turned it back on thanking Trump. What an obvious scam this was. Disgusting on the part of the Tik Tok owners, Trump, and all his sycophants who reversed their positions on it one second after he did for no reason other than he did.
