Following Elon Musk, the world's richest man, two speakers at CPAC, Steve Bannon, who was pardoned by Donald Trump, and Mexican actor Eduardo Verástegui, have now given Nazi salutes. This is a major scandal + should push us all to mobilize, protest, and call out #CPAC for what it is: a Nazi rally.

Don't be gaslit: They are Nazis. This is a Nazi salute. They are not hiding it, or dog whistling, they are announcing it. They have come out as Nazis. Show the people in your life these images all together. Make them understand this is not an accident, or a fluke. It is happening here.

Trump take egg, Trump crash plane, Trump make hockey team lose.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

"'Spain needs to choose between being an open and prosperous country or a closed-off, poor country,'" [Sanchez] told parliament in October. "'It’s as simple as that.'" Not just Spain.

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

When someone says any variety of “if you fight back they’ll authoritarian crack down you” I always wonder what they think is going to happen if we don’t fight back

Not that anyone cares but a bunch of senior doj officials resigning over a corrupt instruction to drop a case was what triggered the Nixon impeachment, and in the Trump era it's just the 2pm scandal of a random Thursday and every day now has ~3 such scandals that would have ended any prior admin

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who killed so many children in Samoa they ran out of child-sized coffins, has been confirmed to lead Health and Human Services. The vote was 52-48. All Dems and Mitch McConnell, whose fault this is, voted no. All other Republicans voted yes. The blood will be on their hands.

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Fuck the billionaires. Show up for your co-workers, classmates, and neighbors. Don't let them divide us. Check out this guide from @crimethinc.com to find out how you can #MeltICE. crimethinc.com/2025/02/11/e...

It's getting tiring to keep saying this, but for posterity's sake I will: any previous administration would have been instantly sunk by this. Before January 20, 2017, this would have been the most stunning corruption scandal in the history of the American justice system. Now, it's...a Thursday.

This is where you go to tell the National Park Service to restore the word "transgender" in its entry on the Stonewall monument. (Scroll down.)

I know I have been posting a lot. But we don't have time to waste. If not now, when. If not us, who. If you are scared, I get it. But doing something can lessen the fear. If you need suggestions of what to do, let me know.

as a point of order, an executive order claiming authority that the president doesn’t have, ordering something that isn’t legal

The image of the night.

Musk's propaganda focusing on individual items in US AID's budget is part of the authoritarian assault on the concept of "a public good." By turning every penny the US gov't spends into a topic of public deliberation (and potential ridicule), they are trying to turn people against democracy itself.

Someone needs to give JD Vance a job so he has something to do besides tweet and read Mein Kampf all day.

This article lays it out plainly. There's nothing to repeal. Costco doesn't have a DEI program. It doesn't have a diversity policy. It simply doesn't use discriminatory hiring practices. These AGs are in hysterics bcuz Costco refuses to segregate its business.

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models. In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded only 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta). Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.

This is a crime against humanity. www.democracynow.org/2025/2/6/hea...

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it’s OK to take time away from all of this and it is going to be better for you in the long run to try and take time away and feel things whether that’s grief anger sadness etc those are normal feelings for what is happening right now.

NEW: A Houston man and Jan. 6 defendant has been arrested for a child sex crime -- two weeks after he was pardoned by Trump and released from a six-year prison stint for assaulting police with bear spray and a metal whip.

This is not a U.S. Marshal, Federal Protective Service, or any other federal law enforcement officer. This is a private security guard from Triple Canopy. He has no authority to block members of Congress who have oversight of the EPA from entering the building.

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that *actual racism and discrimination* divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist

Just in case you thought that removing DEI criteria would mean that everyone is competing equally: NIH is removing grad students from underrepresented backgrounds from the applicant pool altogether. Their applications will not be considered. Other students, not from these backgrounds, will be.

With all of the Trump/Musk mayhem, don't ignore the GOP's continued assault on free and fair elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

A bit of professional disappointment that Wired beat me to it. But glad the info is out. I can confirm the key details of this report based on my own reporting -the name of the DOGE operative and that yes the reports about read only access is categorically false. Not only does Marko have full …

In a disgraceful act betraying millions of their own residents, Iowa, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming all write to oppose birthright citizenship.

Every lawyer who signs their name to a brief or pleading arguing the president can cancel birthright citizenship by executive order should be disbarred. I'm dead serious.

It’s not legal it’s an ongoing active coup

This Fiona Apple narrated explainer PSA on how to film (and release footage from, not livestream) ICE arrests is exactly what we need from people with production skills right now and is worth about 3 million celebrity “imagine” covers in terms of survival utility

This has a big "I'm willing to fight to the last drop of your blood" energy to it.

is it good or bad that a billionaire oligarch with close ties to foreign dictators is currently downloading the most sensitive information the us federal government has about its citizens to his own private servers?

Several conversations today w people in the key executive departments. And while the particulars are hard to pin down my impression is that the Musk take over stuff is considerably worse than is being presented in the press. By this I don’t necessarily things they *done* yet but the level of …

Thousands in the US protested in St. Louis against Trump's ethnic cleansing campaign and concentration camps. #3E #USprotests “A lot of people are very scared right now. I am scared too,” “But I have to go out despite the fear because we have to defend our rights.” www.stlpr.org/government-p...
