So Trump imposes blanket tariffs, and only when a CEO pays him $5 million will he offer a carveout. Anyone who thinks he’s “draining the swamp” is either complicit or a fool.

This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills. Inside the text, you’ll find cuts everywhere, and so much money taken from vets you wouldn’t believe it. These guys are frauds. Nice try! Hard NO! Throw it in the 🗑️

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America. Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

I'm not sure why we are pretending this has anything to do with "DEI" anymore. There is a systematic effort to purge any acknowledgement that race or racism or gender or misogyny EXIST

So, the billionaire-appointed centimillionaire in charge of our Treasury wants all those “price of eggs” voters to know that it’s no big deal that everything is more expensive now because paying less for shit isn’t actually the “American Dream.” Is MAGA really that fucking dumb?

There were many attempts to distill Project 2025. I read some good online primers about it. But the vast majority of the country just heard the words "Project 2025" and did not attempt to look into what it meant. And I think this is something to sit with for the future. HOW do you get ppl to read?

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933. I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

I know people who cheer for cutting social programs—not to save money, but because they believe some lives just aren’t worth saving. Social Darwinism with a eugenics twist isn’t rare. That warning bell rang before, but when cruelty gets the green light, it spreads fast.

Once again I am suggesting that you break some rules for practice. Get comfortable with breaking rules. When the rules are hurting other people, the right thing to do is break them. We need people who follow their moral code over the rules of their society, university, employer, and government.
