We’ve tried to shelter our minds but tonight we’re preparing for the genocide of Science. Entire NIH departments will have no leaders. World renowned Scientists kicked to the curb without cause, & grants will loose their lead investigators. Is this what they want? Chaos? Destruction?

I can’t believe the Supreme Court said the president was above the law and now the president is acting like he’s above the law.

Just because Trump has unlimited immunity doesn’t mean that Musk or the little henchmen do. Trump is telling them to do illegal things and they can be prosecuted.

Trump on Canada becoming a state: "The Canadian citizens would have a much lower tax rate, they'd have much better medical, and they'd have military protection like nobody can have. You know, you have Russian ships all over the place.

@rbhubbell.bsky.social says it’s time for the Dem MOC to implement a Shadow Cabinet. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has been sounding the alarm to do this. Robert’s suggestions who should be on it are in his article. We can add to it. @repjasmine.bsky.social comes to mind. Let’s do this! 202-224-3121.

Instead of saying "I didn't understand the halftime show, therefore it is bad art" maybe try and understand why you didn't get it and think critically about the presentation, symbolism, etc. This is part of the beauty of art and creativity.

I stopped by the liquor store to say farewell to the massive selection of Kentucky bourbon on the shelves. We are the number one export market for Kentucky spirits. On Tuesday, all American booze is being pulled off the shelves. We will drink Canadian whiskey. True. North. Strong. Free of bourbon.

📌QUESTION: How can a private citizen, with zero govt. clearance be walking through the doors of OUR federal departments and the treasury, ransacking the places, stealing information, and NOBODY is stopping him? 📌And what the fuck is law enforcement doing right now? 📌THIS IS A COUP.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Genuine question: is there any authorization, anything at all, for a so-called Department of Government Efficiency? an executive order? Anything? Is anyone working for that “department” a government employee? Or is it just a straight up private sector takeover?

My latest cartoon on Pepperspectives. It's easy to get caught up in the moment-to-moment outrage and chaos that swirls around 45. But there are other dangers to our democracy, and they're counting on us to be distracted by the Tangerine Tyrant. davidpepper.substack.com

I like this app, and I plan to stay, but I urge caution when it comes to giving up your territory in the information war. The project of authoritarian states is to divide the opposition and destroy it from the inside out. Don’t get siloed. www.mind-war.com/p/dont-get-s...

Meiselas: What do you say to Americans who are understandably very nervous right now— Biden: You’ve got to make clear: we’re not going away. We’re not going away. I’m not going away. I’m going to be deeply involved in the environment, deeply involved in foreign policy.
