Insanity

Trump Gaza is finally here.” Donald Trump just posted this AI video on Truth Social about the Gaza Strip. This is a reminder that in recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly said that the U.S. will “own Gaza” and has said its 2 million residents will be relocated.

Always #Ukraine

Trump's attack on NIH funding is a reckless attack on science, innovation, and the people who depend on them. It will gut critical research, kill jobs, and put lives at risk—especially in the #MA7, a global hub for cutting-edge research. My full statement:

He has no idea what he’s talking about and yet strong opinions Do not normalize!!!!!!

“The most immediate task for the anti-Trump coalition in these early months of 2025 is to avoid more mistakes,” @davidfrum.bsky.social writes. “Build unity from the center, rather than indulge the factionalism of the ultra-left.”

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

Donald Trump, allegedly the “leader of the free world,” has attacked Canada, Ukraine, and Taiwan harsher than he ever attacked Russia, China, and North Korea. Let that sink in.

It is astonishing that mainstream media is covering this like it is a shruggie vibe 🤷‍♂️

Yes, I am!

APPALLING!!!!

Canada and Mexico will suffer severe economic blows from the tariffs Trump announced on Saturday. Their strategy is to make sure Americans feel the pain too.

Pay attention!

Ronald Reagan: “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.”

Do not NORMALIZE this!!!

"When you are selecting not only for loyalty, but defining that loyalty to mean affirming morally odious values and factually absurd premises, you are reducing your hiring pool to the shallowest part," Jonathan Chait writes:

Seems like we all agree RFK Jr. cannot be the next Secretary of Health and Human Services. www.wsj.com/opinion/rfk-...

The president now holds more than half of his wealth in crypto, Danielle Allen reports. With his memecoin $TRUMP, “he has turned himself—and therefore his office—into a for-profit joint-share stock corporation.”

Helps with stress! Paint what you love!

RFK Jr is DANGEROUS!

At every point in our history, immigrants have helped us tackle our greatest challenges. Immigrants should be celebrated, not demonized.

It’s almost like they want to keep America stupid—less financially stable & thus more controllable.

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

A ‘SULK’ Of FOXES in the White House!

I spoke with Anthony Romero, executive director of the @aclu.org to get his take on the whirlwind of executive orders and headline-making political maneuvering that kept Washington busy this week, including all the talk about birthright citizenship.

Canada, Panama, and Greenland are not enemies of the United States. Fascists are though, both foreign and domestic.

Trump II has begun. Many people are asking: “What can I do now?” Here are 10 recommendations. Please let me know your thoughts, and if you have anything else you'd like to add to the list.

Sunday’s Zoom with @hcrichardson.bsky.social was full of wisdom on how to navigate 2025—focus on what you can control, find your people, and never stop learning. So, what’s your game plan to make it through the year?

Trump was outraged by Bishop Budde’s remarks, and predictably so. Those vested with an abundance of worldly power should find the radical Christian message of mercy hard to hear, Elizabeth Bruenig writes:

Remember what the Bishop said

A little break in the political chaos…the beautiful, very cold, Berkshires

Donald Trump’s baffling declarations on foreign policy were once the stuff of paranoid political thrillers, Tom Nichols writes in The Atlantic Daily.
