When student loan borrowers are in default, how does the Trump regime respond? By garnishing their wages. When billionaires see their wealth hit record highs, how does the Trump regime respond? By extending their tax cuts. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Do not let Trump gaslight you into believing he has a mandate or is all powerful. Most Americans don't support his cruel agenda. His approval ratings are in the gutter. Individuals and institutions are fighting back in courts and winning. Keep up the fight.

Christians, Christianity, the teachings of Christ and Christian practice are not being challenged. Conservative Christian control of society is being challenged, and that's what they care about.

Really need journalists to push back on this bullshit. When they say this, just ask them point blank: "Are you saying that because one Latino man committed a murder, another Latino man deserves a life sentence? Do you think all Latino men interchangeable?"

The Border Patrol and ICE will lie about you in court proceedings so they can make their sick quotas. Then they’ll claim it as “evidence” to try and deport you.

Naturally, when members of Pete Hegseth’s own inner circle at the Pentagon, all Trump-supporting Republicans, come forward to describe his reckless and incompetent behavior, which is consistent with his reckless and incompetent behavior his entire life, MAGA blames the media.

Every time the Justice Department tries to claim the military isn’t actually banning transgender people, Pete Hegseth tweets that it is. This is likely to come up at oral arguments at the DC Circuit Court of appeals — conveniently scheduled for tomorrow.

As we resist Trump’s tyranny, America gains solidarity. As we gain solidarity, we feel more courageous. As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime. As we weaken Trump and his regime, we have less to fear.

What’s been hardest for me to understand about the conspiracy prone Right isn’t their willingness to believe almost anything, it’s that the types of things they distrust (research, expertise, harm reduction, not-for-profit objectives) are almost always fundamentally or necessarily decentralized.

The Trump regime's repeated attacks on "DEI," "wokeness," immigrants, and the trans community have one clear purpose: If we are angry at each other, we don't look up to see how big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

The Trump regime is now using US Attorneys to intimidate academic journals by sending them letters demanding they explain how they ensure ‘viewpoint diversity.’ Journal editors should be public about this and coordinate to refuse to comply with these fascist tactics.

One thing that’s heartening amid this Trump Admin depravity is the number of people speaking out. When they came for the first targets, we’re not being silent. We’re collectively saying hell no. The line has to be drawn here.
