C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

We should all applaud Judge Ho’s appointment of former Bush SG Paul Clement to present a perspective distinct from those of the indicted NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the Trumpservient DOJ prosecutor Emil Bove. Well played! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/n...

We wanted to know what the average Black person thinks of Donald Trump. So we asked the communications director of the Houston Young Republicans, who grew up in a mixed race family in a majority white Long Island suburb.

This is, in no uncertain terms, a rout. The New York Times published an unfortunate op-ed trying to legally justify Trump administration's #Birthright citizenship order. Here, five leading scholars show, with analytic precision, how that op-ed was "fundamentally flawed and irresponsible."⬇️

Desperately sad to look back & remember the Mueller report was fully suppressed. Bill Barr is responsible for it! He later warned us about Orange but still didn’t release the report. ANOTHER TRAITOR. It’s all completely INCOMPREHENSIBLE… These steps in the coup & seeing them with such clarity

NEW: Judge Dale Ho appoints Paul Clement to present “friend of the court” arguments on the government’s motion to dismiss Eric Adams’s charges.

submitted 1 day ago • 47 comments

Paul Clement is a conservative's conservative. Personal politics aside, his legal bonafides are not debatable. Very credentialed. If Clement submits something saying Judge Ho has options in the Eric Adams case, SCOTUS - particularly THIS composition of SCOTUS - will listen.

Feds, we chose this path to serve a greater purpose. In these times of cruelty and fear, remember: our work still matters, even when the public forgets. Every life we impact is a strike back against false kings. Stand tall, stay strong, and hold the line. We are needed, now, more than ever.
