DC Metro police is still being cagey. But based on their new statement their role in evicting the staff of the US Institute of Peace considerably worse than I'd suspected. Ed Martin's office intervened, told MPD the staff were intruders and they went with that. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/more-...

Putin had Trump sitting by the phone for what must've felt like hours for the orange rapist. Putin blew off a scheduled call Trump's been boasting about for weeks and met with Russia's oligarchy and laughed about it.

EVERCORE: “.. if the Trump Administration defies a court order in a way that impacts meaningful government spending or undercuts the judiciary’s ability to enforce contracts or effectively mediate commercial disputes .. then we see higher risks of an adverse market reaction.” 🇺🇸

Tesla has been kicked out of the Vancouver auto show on the eve of the event. Elon Musk’s company will no longer be an exhibitor and all references to Tesla have been removed from the show’s website. #3E #EndOligarchy #TeslaTakedown www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/ar...

They’re trying to erase Jackie Robinson from history.

Baseball media: if you do not loudly report on this I do not want to hear a goddamn thing from you about Jackie Robinson on April 15. bsky.app/profile/fbih...

amazing putin and this host guy laugh about trump being a huge cuck live on camera here, as he reminds putin that trump is waiting by the phone

Trump “reveals” what everyone already suspected, he’s been having regular phone calls with Putin. Both Trump and Musk have been in frequent contact with the Kremlin long before the US election.

Very brave. I only represent Republicans, not all Americans in my district. Hopefully those independent voters will let him know how they feel about this when he runs for Senate.

Tanden: This administration is demonstrating incredible weakness against the Russians, who are 1/14 of our economy. We are a much stronger country. And Donald Trump waited for an hour today for Putin.

🚨 The commissioner of Social Security said he canceled Maine’s contract for processing newborns’ SSNs cuz it looked “strange.” I asked if Trump’s clash with the governor had something to do with it. He admitted being “upset” with the governor. www.huffpost.com/entry/leland...

Russia agrees to stop targeting energy infrastructure then immediately bombs energy infrastructure. Trump is putins bitch

Porter: I think what we should be asking Elon Musk and pressing him on is: what makes this change efficient? Imagine a clinical trial that is near completion, only to unravel and lose all that progress—just because Elon Musk decides to pull the plug. That’s not efficient. It’s just destructive.

This seems problematic

This is what happens in the authoritarian countries USIP used to study. Taking over and dismantling independent research institutions is not something we expect to happen in a functioning democracy.

"C'mon people now, Smile on your brother. Everybody get together and love one another right now." Jesse Colin Young, a prolific musician known as the voice of The Youngbloods' era-defining "Get Together," died on Sunday at his home in Aiken, S.C.

HMMM: So the administration reveals in a new court filing (ordered by Judge Bates) that Amy Gleason was actually hired by HHS as an "expert/consultant" on March 4, just a few days after the White House identified her as the administrator of DOGE.

U.S. immigration authorities arrested and interrogated a German national who is a legal permanent U.S. resident at Boston's Logan Airport on March 7, according to the man's mother and his partner. Days later, Fabian Schmidt, 34, was transferred to a federal detention facility.

The DOJ attorney who led the government's team in the Perkins Coie case has dropped out, leaving the deputy associate attorney general as the lead counsel. Dreier didn't argue the case, chief of staff Chad Mizelle did (unusual in itself).

'sold as slave labor to El Salvador' is I honestly think a fair way of describing it

There is literally no one in the department leadership that has any apparent regard for the rule of law. They are all signing onto statements of unprecedented assertion of unreviewable executive power. A band of outlaws has taken over the DOJ.

RIP, Tesla.

BREAKING: Trump fires two Democratic commissioners at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), challenging a 90-year-old Supreme Court ruling that protects FTC members and other independent agency officials from presidential removal for political reasons.

NEW: Minnesota Republican state Senator Justin Eichorn, co-author of the "Trump Derangement Syndrome" bill that just made headlines, was arrested yesterday in Bloomington for allegedly soliciting sex with a 16-year-old girl. minnesotareformer.com/2025/03/18/g...

ICE detained Julio Noriega, a 54 year-old US citizen who was born in Chicago, for over 10 hours on January 31st. He was walking around "Berwyn, Illinois, handing out his resume to local businesses." They didn't show him a warrant. They didn't give him paperwork. And he's now suing.

RFK Jr. & his brain worm would just like to remind everyone that he doesn’t give a flying fuck. ‘If H5N1 were to be allowed to run through a flock of 5 million birds, “that’s literally 5 million chances for that virus to replicate or to mutate,” Dr. Hansen said.😱 www.nytimes.com/2025/03/18/h...

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks. Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again. NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

Thank you for showing up and telling your stories. We’re in this fight with you

During the Salem witch trials, the midwives went first. www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/t...

UNREAL. ICE implies in a sworn declaration that MOST of the Venezuelans sentenced to hard labor in a brutal Central American prison without charge or trial or so much as a cursory hearing had never been convicted or even charged with ANY CRIME whatsoever, not even a trivial one, anywhere, ever!

RFK Jr., Secretary of Health and Human Services, told Sean Hannity that bird flu "doesn't appear to hurt wild birds." That is false. The avian flu can kill wild birds. I've included local news segments about the mass death of wild birds from avian flu dating back to 2022. youtu.be/di5FXvNsb4w?...

DOJ Asserts Trump Hypothetically Has Power To Purge All Female Agency Heads, Or Those Over 40 talkingpointsmemo.com/news/doj-tru...

"Thousands of employees returned to the Food and Drug Administration’s headquarters Monday to find overflowing parking lots, long security lines and makeshift office spaces without chairs and other basic supplies..." apnews.com/article/fda-...

From a source: “Just had a co-presenter for a buildings research conference bow out. She’s a dual citizen and the FBI came knocking to ask her about her involvement in coauthoring chunks of the Paris Agreement. Climate science is being literally (and I mean literally) criminalized.”

We need to be very clear about what the Trump Administration is doing. They’re not “deporting” people. They’re sending them to labor camps in El Salvador, and paying El Salvador to do it. All without any due process to even assess whether these people are actually criminals.

Last month, Jose Franco Caraballo Tiapa, a Venezuelan migrant who was seeking asylum in the US, showed up to his routine check-in with ICE in Dallas, when authorities detained him. His wife believes he’s one of the hundreds of Venezuelan men who were sent to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act.

Hm. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Lee Zeldin on Fox accuses the NYT of doing a "face plant" with their reporting about EPA plans to fire more than 1,000 scientists, then in the very next breath basically confirms their reporting

What a beautiful world we would live in.
