One of the wilder political things in recent history is that Project 2025 publicly released a 900 page document laying out their plans to roll back 100 years of human progress and then during the campaign Republicans just said "no we're not :)" and then they won and now they're doing it all.

Can't believe all these priests are going all in on this Jesus guy. I checked: he has a prior run in with local law enforcement for causing trouble in the temple and he's also an immigrant from galilee. Also this Barabbas guy is doing way better in the polls

This is, weirdly, the most purely fascist shit anyone in the administration has said so far - Your health is an asset of the fatherland - Illness is a failure or a moral failing - You have a duty to maintain your health - Healthcare is not a right, it's a finite resource - Die for the fatherland

“…the reports…will no longer call governments out for such things as denying freedom of movement and peaceful assembly. They won’t condemn retaining political prisoners without due process or restrictions on ‘free and fair elections.’” apple.news/Afn5usfmGRcq...

Say more, Senator. Who, specifically, are you afraid of? Who do they work for? To which political party do they belong? What are they doing/saying in particular to make you afraid? Why will you not explicitly call out the perpetrators and organizers of this mass campaign of terror?

A consistent pattern here is that they will absolutely destroy a functioning system, alleging fraud, and when they can they will replace it with a cronyist alternative profiting the politically connected.

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

Foreign Friends with Travel Plans to the U.S. for Conventions: A bit back I said you should maybe reconsider those plans. I would like to amend my prior statement. Cancel them. Cancel them now. We cannot keep you safe from our own government. Take your holiday in Spain or something.

The Trump administration wants to send anyone it wants, including U.S. citizens, to foreign prisons. Keeping Abrego Garcia in El Salvador is key to that lawless plan. At Law Dork, I go through it all:

Trump defying a 9-0 Supreme Court decision is the reason I say "if we still have free and fair elections in the United States" when I talk about 2026 midterms.
