“Without the threat of contempt, legal experts say the Trump administration could ignore court orders with impunity.” Project 2025 was once a secret. Now it’s being written into our country. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Trump refers to Leonard Leo as a “sleazebag”

"Last month, civilian Navy officials...pulled...books including one that critiqued 'The Bell Curve,' a 1994 text that argues that Black men and women are genetically less intelligent than white people. But the academy kept 'The Bell Curve' itself on its shelves." www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/u...

The two pictures are 11 years apart. On 10 May 1933 the Nazi party staged ideological spectacle of burning of 'un-German’ books. 2nd image: Auschwitz II-Birkenau, burning pits outside gas chamber V, 1944. #Auschwitz warns us of where ideologies of hatred can lead to.

Trump on China: "They made a trillion dollars with Biden selling us stuff. Much of it we don't need. Somebody said, 'oh, the shelves are gonna be open.' Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, and maybe the two dolls will cost a couple of bucks more."

The single most important thing you can do right now is make the protests so big that they truly shock the world. Pass it on.

BREAKING NEWS

@50501movement.bsky.social has called for nationwide on Saturday April 19th. Fitting since It’s the 250th anniversary of the beginning of the Revolutionary War. Over the next week, we’re going to explore the founding documents and how they’re relevant today.

So apparently the drug Mounjaro turns you into a Trump-and-Netanyahu-enabling sellout www.nytimes.com/2025/04/08/o...

They’re going to keep pushing until something stops them.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Three million Americans marched today. Here’s why we wrote about one American who didn’t.

@maddow.msnbc.com Gettysburg PA in a deep red county turned out over 600 people.

No! @nytimes.com They were not out there by the 100,000s to “bemoan” anything. They are pissed and demanding DEMOCRACY. 😤 www.nytimes.com/2025/04/05/u...

For those listening to this rant, those numbers are not tariffs. The European Union, e.g., has weighted average tariff rates of ~ 3% and arguably lower on US goods. So they are clearly including VATs and who knows what else? This false reciprocity is nonsense. For more: www.piie.com/blogs/realti...

And this is why we instantly block every single number that ever texts us for money.

This is hilarious. #Greenland

Yes, Pete Hegseth and Michael Waltz violated all sorts of national security protocols by sharing military secrets with a journalist. But at least they were White when they did this. by Charlie Kirk
