Superb piece by my friend @stevenbeschloss.bsky.social about supporting foreign criticism of Trump's America. It's not unpatriotic of us to feel this way. It's a rejection of fascism and an endorsement of the need for freedom around the world.

Such hostile nonsense from Americans in power just now. I wish we would listen to people who have suffered for reporting the truth, like Stanislav Aseyev, combat veteran and survivor of a Russian torture camp.

Some updates: 1. A federal judge extended a restraining order blocking the National Institutes of Health from cutting research funds until she rules on a permanent injunction. 2. The IRS will not allow a member of Elon Musk’s team to access individual tax returns.

Got to say I LOVE the Trump Administration negotiating to get Rare Minerals from Ukraine, for 2 reasons: 1. It reduces our dependence on China for Lithium and Graphite (China provides near 70% of world supply) 2. More than 50% of those minerals are in Russian Annexed land.

It’s almost as if…Biden tried to fix the economy and the MAGAts hated him for what he tried to do (example, the Inflation Reduction Act). Where are they now that the Orange King hasn’t brought prices down?

This is a great development. In the end the case probably still goes away, one way or another. But Judge Ho won't just rubber stamp the corrupt deal and wants to fully explore the options. Also, you've gotta love the citation to the Michael Flynn case - that will drive Trump world crazy.

A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

The question at the end of this: “So America, how do you feel about that?” In the comments, 1) How do you think a Tяump voter would answer? 2) How do you answer? I’ll start: 1) “Who cares? Ukraine started it.” 2) “Deeply ashamed.”

Of course. But being the party standing up for those fired will mean a lot to those fired and their families. It will also show the country that they are trying to bring order to chaos. And if they can get any Republican support at all, that's huge leverage for March 14

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees with General Milley that Americans do not owe our allegiance to a King, Queen, or a wannabe dictator. We owe our allegiance to the Constitution. Fuck the nonsense trump says about being a king.

Unlike the Naval Academy Board, the Kennedy Center isn’t an arm of the executive branch. Its board has fixed terms, not presidential whim. According to @normornstein.bsky.social, there’s a strong case to fight back.

Dear business owners that voted for Trump, You could have had $50K in capital and a robust SBA. Instead, DOGE is cancelling all your government contracts and putting you out of business so he can have the contracts for himself.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.
