This is disgusting! We’ve got a Trump wanna-be leading the House and an openly White supremacist member being allowed to spew his toxic garbage on the House floor.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

Adam Serwer’s observation that “the cruelty is the point” remains the central insight into MAGA culture.

The Trump admin is re-assigning IRS agents from going after tax cheats to going after immigrants. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/u...

Sorry, but 30% of Americans supporting Christian Nationalism is a pretty terrifying stat.

Remember, there was no difference between Harris and Trump.

I’m sorry, we cannot let this get normalized!! When they talk about “ending DEI,” this is what they aren’t saying out loud—until they do.

The interference in private business decisions is as anti-free market overstep by government as you can get. Pressure on business leaders was the white Citizens Council’s vote strategy. It’s all so blatant now. At least it’s hard to impossible to deny our rapid descent into the past.

Caroline Kennedy's letter to the Senate on her cousin RFKJr. is devastating. It is an absolute condemnation of his fitness for office, his lack of character as a human being and must have been deeply painful to write. Any Senator who reads this and votes for this man should be run out of office.

This is 100% illegal. It’s a new escalation in Trump’s battle for absolute control over the administrative state. Federal law explicitly protects Wilcox against termination. That law is constitutional under binding Supreme Court precedent. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
