A hallmark of fascism is to attack the judiciary.

Flashing. Warning. Signs.

If you're a billionaire, then you'll barely notice a few thousand dollars a year in higher prices at the store from these Trump tariffs - plus you can count on him to get you another big tax break for the wealthy. But for everyone else, this is a big deal, and a bad one.

Seriously, who voted for this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=_65n...

Talk about "entitlement" wtf

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Trump’s silent purge of top officers is escalating. Retired leaders must speak up—before silence becomes permission. If not now, when? New from Brian O'Neill

Heartbreaking and disgusting that this is happening in our country

Thank you to EVERYONE who pitched in to make this happen! Victory!!!

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

Seeing folks on the other site claim that Alien Enemy Act removals are not reviewable by courts. The statute explicitly requires "a full examination and hearing," and there are literally *dozens* of reported cases from the War of 1812, World War I, and World War II: law.lclark.edu/live/files/9...

Just so we’re all clear, the Supreme Court *expressly ruled* that the president cannot fire FTC commissioners without cause in 1935’s Humphrey’s Executor. Trump’s action here is brazenly illegal under any interpretation of the law as it stands. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Thanks to President Trump, we are finally cleansing our country of … kidney-transplant specialists who “fly through the night to pick up donated organs before performing emergency surgery” www.nytimes.com/2025/03/16/u...

Looks like more and more people aren't happy with the wanna be dictator

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

Who knows how much this will matter but this is one the most comical failures of researching your brief I’ve ever seen.

The top criminal prosecutor in the U.S. attorney's office in Washington quit today, citing pressure by the Trump administration to open what she viewed as an improper criminal probe of a federal contract. ca.news.yahoo.com/senior-u-pro...

yes it's true that Pete Hegseth could simply decline to spend the 150k on an emergency paint job and new drapes. but that would be silly given all the money we've saved medicating hiv positive babies

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more. - US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID - $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes. - Food stranded in Houston - Aid stopped in transit. The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

The richest man in the world is sitting at the Resolute desk, about to defund your public school. Trump should stop him.

I know it's a big ask but could we please have some Republicans just say no to trump?? If a bunch of kids being bullied stand up to the bully as a group, they can shut the bully down. It really only takes 2. Do what's right and cross the aisle. Our country just may hinge on it

This is scary AF. Guess I better hang onto my Handmaid's Tale outfit 😥🤢😡

Government officials and leaders: Be like James Dennehy.

Musk has as much legal authority to shut down USAID as I do to shut down Tesla, which is to say: none.

Let me say this clearly. The tariffs are a money grab. Less money in the hands of the American people due to the new 25% tax on goods. More money to distribute to his cronies in the form of tax cuts. See how it works?

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.
