Each day of Trump’s second term brings more “outrageous news from an autocrat who revels in his contempt for the government he leads, for the foreign allies who deserve our support, and for the Constitution he is sworn to uphold,” David Remnick writes.

“There is no reason why they’re being held,” the judge said. “If this was a criminal case. … I’d throw you out of my chambers.” www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Only the best people

Dear GOP: You'll Never Wash the Stench of Trump Off You or Your Party. Never. hartmannreport.com/p/dear-gop-y...

Ossoff: This is what happens when you have Fox News personalities cosplaying as government officials.

This bitch is unfit to lead

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

The annoying concept of due process

Refusing to Be Complicit

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks… “The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government. 🧵

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

AOC: If you are an LGBTQ kid or family, we cannot throw you under the bus in order to win an election. In this house, we stand together

BREAKING: 34,000 people have showed up in Denver, Colorado this evening to see Bernie Sanders and AOC fight oligarchy and authoritarianism.

Trump’s illegal order to kill the Dept of Ed. Tesla protests erupt. ICE detains legal travelers. Trump wants Ukraine’s power plants. America drops in happiness. It’s all here in today's daily bulletin👇

A congresswoman who makes, what, $174,000 a year, paid for by taxpayers, spends tens of thousands of dollars buying a Texla, just to suck up to Donald Trump's superdonor. Pathetic.

Everyday that this POS lives America is one day closer to total destruction. 2 months of his hatred for America seems like 2 years. My 1 prayer every day is Lord let today be his very last day! I'm tired of his lies, contempt for Democracy, and destruction of stability. I want his dirt nap now!

Trump did what Project 2025 said he would do. joycevance.substack.com/p/education-...

And that’s on that 😌

The good news is that there *are* people meeting the moment. youtu.be/EJxRtjma7lc

“We are witnessing a constitutional system on the brink.” Ruth Marcus writes about the Trump Administration’s flagrant violation of a federal judge’s order to stop the deportation of Venezuelan immigrants.

Gutting the Department of Education would deliver a terrible blow to public schools, and have an immediate and tangible impact on students with disabilities.

The local smiling idiot, so proud of what he’s just done…

Great decision Judge Hollander! Tell DOGE to keep their slimy little hands and bad intent away from our Social Security, and our most sensitive and personal data…

Americans thank you for that reminder, hopefully our Congressional Representatives & Senators remind themselves of this as well!

Happy first day of Spring! 🌱 #PNW #photography #photos

Bernie Sanders announces AOC will be joining him on his 'Fighting Oligarchy' tour and delivers an important message in a new interview on MeidasTouch.

This power grab is unprecedented, unbounded, and unconstitutional.

While the Russian Useful Idiot in the White House is busy claiming bullshit wartime authority to further his efforts destructing Democracy, just a reminder that everything he has said is a lie & everything that he says going forward will be a lie. As for his enablers, screw them.

Musk doesn't seem worried that he and Trump threaten social and economic collapse. On the contrary, it appears that's his goal. Musk swims in a tech-fascist ideology that believes democracy should be replaced by billionaire dictators — like himself. www.salon.com/2025/03/17/t...

Arlington National Cemetery removed links to webpages about Black, Hispanic and female veterans www.snopes.com/fact-check The racist makes me want to vomit.

Trump in the Great Hall of Justice, "The case against me was bull shit." There is applause. In The Great Hall of Justice. For that.

I've been at DOJ for so many important speeches & presentations. Today, my heart is filled with sadness for my former colleagues & our country as a convicted felon who doesn't understand justice or the meaning of the rule of law & why both are essential to our democracy stands there.

NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani confronted Trump border Czar Tom Homan over ICE's arrest of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil. "How many more New Yorkers will you detain? How many more New Yorkers without charge?" he shouted at Homan during a protest Wednesday.

Alabama, like other states, depends on NOAA warnings for early preparedness for events like this. Early preparedness saves lives. But Trump & Musk are killing off NOAA. www.al.com/weather/2025...

Tens of thousands of fired workers at Treasury, Defense and other agencies can get their jobs back, a federal judge ruled.

Americans sour on Trump’s handling of economy, poll finds.

It’s nuts to waste a pardon on restoring the right to have a gun to someone who battered his girlfriend, just because he’s a Hollywood name. It’s government by grift. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/10/u...

A cowardly statement.

The United States Supreme Court has agreed to hear a challenge to Colorado's ban on the harmful practice of conversion therapy.
