These two posts: * “We need to treat antifa and BLM like terrorist organizations,” said Joe Kent, Trump’s pick to lead counter-terrorism efforts. * Trump to Bukele (president of El Salvador): “Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It’s not big enough.” 1/

He wants to deport citizens. Doesn't matter if they're law abiding or not. He must be stopped.

In Trump’s America, unless you’re a “real American” — ultra-white, blue-eyed, tattooed with eagles, waving flags from lifted trucks, and sitting on inherited wealth — your citizenship is negotiable. The rest? Expendable at whim.

An independent vaccine advisory committee to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention met to discuss and vote on vaccine policy for the first time since the change in administrations.

The plan for NIH is in, source with full 64 page proposal for all of HHS is linked. Reported in WaPo. This is catastrophic. Reduction to 8 centers. 40% cut in budget. 15% IDC cap. This will decimate science across America open.substack.com/pub/insideme...

I wish I had Bezos's money to get him back www.reuters.com/world/americ...

Would men need to provide a marriage certificate to vote? No? Just women? Got it.

The Trump administration on Sunday evening doubled down on its assertion that a federal judge cannot force it to bring back to the U.S. a Maryland man who was unlawfully deported to a notorious prison in El Salvador last month.

@gregcasar.bsky.social: "Donald Trump must, by law, fire Elon Musk in 50 days."

Turns out autocracy is bad for business

DEUTSCHE: “.. we reluctantly downgrade $GM to Hold from Buy given structural uncertainty around US industrial/tariff policy. While the stock already trades at a low multiple, we worry it may be an impaired asset for several years.”

We must follow the lead of opposition movements in other kleptocracies: Put corruption at the center of our arguments. American government & foreign & domestic policy are being transformed to benefit not Americans but Trump & Co. Only voters can stop this change. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

While I understand that these facts are not formally before the Court, how can CJ Roberts see these many stories and still move forward under a presumption of regularity with this administration in the cases the Court is seeing?

Court order defied. Yes, another. The Trump admin hasn’t taken steps to bring back Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who by their own admission they erroneously sent to a Salvadoran prison, and missed a deadline. As @gregsargent.bsky.social writes, deliberately avoiding the legal process is part of the point.

China's tariff on US Goods on April 3rd: 0%. Zero. None. Nil. Goose egg. Didn't exist. Today: 125%.

here's today's post: "maybe he’s just a fucking idiot after all" — so much for the Art of the Deal. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post —

STRAIGHT UP AUTHORITARIANISM!!! DOGE is secretly monitoring staff — scanning messages, watching for disloyalty— and using AI to do it. No one should have to work under these conditions.

208 members of Congress sign on to an amicus brief arguing that eliminating birthright citizenship isn’t just unconstitutional, it also violates multiple laws passed by Congress which require and/or acknowledge jus soli. Cc: @evanbernick.bsky.social litigationandresponse.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

🚨NEW: The NC Supreme Court's GOP majority will retroactively nullify 2,000 to 7,000 ballots from military and overseas voters unless they quickly prove their identity—but only those who voted in a few Democratic counties. Could overturn Justice Riggs' victory. appellate.nccourts.org/orders.php?t...

Here is Steve Witkoff securing his spot in the history books when people point out that the US Trump regime sided with Putin during World War 3.

This is the incompetence levels with which these people are deciding the fate of human lives with no oversight

Scoop: DOGE now controls how grant opportunities get posted across government. DOGE engineer removed users’ permissions to post to Grants-dot-gov without telling them. Now requests flow thru DOGE-controlled mailbox. with @carolynyjohnson.bsky.social + @hannahnatanson.bsky.social

I don’t even know where to begin with this. Spouting derogatory terms (in what world did he think it was appropriate to use that term?!?), conspiracies, and just utter nonsense. Safe to say we are not going to be making America health again under his watch. Inexcusable.

Senator Elizabeth Warren asked the Securities and Exchange Commission to investigate whether President Trump violated securities laws while reversing course on his global tariffs.

it was/is a huge national security scandal and nobody involved should ever be in a position of public trust again

The SAVE (Men's Power) Act will literally prevent 50-75M women from voting Republicans, independents, Democratic. It won't care. You can't vote all bc you took your husband's name This was explicitly done to attack Democratic base bc women lean to Democrats Amazing this wasn't blasted by MSM

This isn't freedom.

This week in Trump/Musk corruption: Friends make bank buying right before tariff pause announcement & then selling. Musk forces agency to use only his own platform for comms. Trump meme coins … well who the hell knows who’s buying them to put $ in Trump’s pocket Most corrupt Administration ever.

I am bringing three other State AGs to town for a community impact hearing on next Wednesday April 16th, focusing on the harms caused by the illegal actions of the Trump Administration. SIgn up here. coag.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Putting aside the merits (do all 80-year-olds have ready access to social media?) this is an incredible conflict of interest. Musk is using his position to grant his business a monopoly over access to a public service.

Freedom of ONLY xtian religion. Hell no. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

I said this a month or two ago and it is being proven daily by The Regime. They cannot handle complexity in science. They are only interested in a simple explanation, even if it’s completely wrong, because they are ignorant, arrogant fools. Their hubris will kill people.

Person born decades before the internet is wondering where Autism “epidemic” of people learning about Autism resulting in them getting a DX of ASD … It’s … literally Autistic people sharing info with each other on the internet and the multimillion dollar efforts to raise Autism Awareness.

From SCOTUS decision: "The United States acknowledges that Abrego Garcia was subject to a withholding order forbidding his removal to El Salvador, and that the removal to El Salvador was therefore illegal." (The reason we have due process.) www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks.
