This is not just about media that is critical of trump, trump wants to silence all media that speaks the truth. We are already being governed by a fascist, this is just the next step in solidifying his power. #WakeUp

#ProudBlue Thank you, Heather Cox Richardson for spotting this brilliantly accurate focus on Trump's firm resolution to hurt the defenseless wherever possible while showing absurd fake grandiosity the rest of the time.

Yes, Trump does have political instincts. And you can often tell when Trump senses a topic is a political loser because he claims to know very little about it and starts passing the buck.

Michigan State faculty passed a resolution urging the university to form a mutual defense pact with Big Ten schools to fight back against Trump’s attacks on higher ed. Shared defense fund. United front. No backing down.

Don't you love when the GOP pretends to care about children... ‘In Three Months, Half of Them Will Be Dead’ Elon Musk promised to preserve lifesaving aid to foreign children. Then the Trump administration quietly canceled it. #StopElonMusk #USAID #DOGEscam www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Florida: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez (20) is being held in the Leon County Jail, charged with illegally entering Florida as an “unauthorized alien." Lopez-Gomez is a U.S. Citizen, born in the USA. He showed his U.S. birth certificate in court. The judge held him in jail anyway. This is Fascism.

It seems to us that America policy is a lot like “whose line is it anyways”. A people that cheers the launch of fiancés and celebrities into space but frowns upon bringing an innocent back to his family on a plane. The rules seem made up and nobody is keeping track.

The statement by the team of Columbia University graduate and legal green card holder Mahmoud Khalil is heartbreaking. Anyone who cares about freedom of speech should be against the Louisiana judge ruling to deport him.

Nepotism at its best. Pete Hegseth fired hired “DEI” Special Advisor. He then promptly hired his brother into the position.

When I was 17, I opened my first checking account w/a couple hundred bucks. I didn’t meet the min monthly deposit, so they kept charging fees until I owed them money. It stuck with me—I still won’t bank w/BofA. There’s no upside to this move for anyone who isn’t rich—just cruelty for cruelty’s sake

Pete Hegseth accidentally texted a journalist at The Atlantic the U.S.' plans to bomb Yemen: "The reason I knew this is that Pete Hegseth, the secretary of defense, had texted me the war plan at 11:44 a.m. The plan included precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing." JFC.

This administration is incompetent and endangering our troops. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared war plans in an encrypted chat—including a journalist—two hours before strikes on the Houthis in Yemen, the White House confirmed.

Top intelligence committees need to begin an investigation into Pete Hegseth's epic Signal chat mishap. ASAP. There should be televised hearings so all Americans have transparency on how such an enormous breach of national security could take place in first place.

The Trump administration just shut down a food safety committee to prevent bacteria in baby formula. They are also threatening to fire employees who prevent deli meat from being infected with Listeria and applesauce from being laced with lead.
