How Rubio became a Nazi: open.substack.com/pub/gregolea...

spent yesterday afternoon in D.C. at a rally of union workers standing in solidarity with fired federal workers on the 100th day of President Trump's second term. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gR0b...

I wrote for New York magazine about deportations to CECOT in El Salvador, which are bound up with a tradition of US extrajudicial actions in the Americas and further the long arc of concentration camps.

Swalwell: What are we doing here? What in this hearing achieves lowering costs for the American people? Do you know how far you’ve deviated from that goal? This is where you are: today, you will make it easier to deport more American citizen children with cancer.

This 👇🏽 Well said. Free speech is being used by the radical right wing to attack liberals but also to attack the founding principles of our country. It started years ago and the goal posts kept getting moved. Disgusting.

Such a moving show this morning with the amazing Katie Phang. @katiephang.bsky.social Katie, you will be missed on @msnbc.com Thank you for using your platform for speaking truth to power. I will be following you on @meidastouch.com and everywhere.

This is wild: Trump is offering visits to the White House to people who invest in his bullshit crypto scheme. It is pay-for-influence in the most naked possible way. Just because the corruption is out in the open and unhidden doesn't mean it's not corruption.

BREAKING: The Interior Dept just used a fake “energy emergency” to greenlight gas and mining projects on public lands. It’s a lie. There is no energy emergency. This is a giveaway to big oil.

Love this. Not only is the University of Alabama not bending the knee for Trump, they basically said “f*ck off.”

Beautiful. Leaders have an opportunity now.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

🔥 @ninajankowicz.com to the European Parliament: "Before I describe the details of Russia's recent online influence campaigns, I would like to call upon you to stand firm against another autocracy: The United States of America."

We cannot let them kill Head Start.

Sobering and important article to understand this convergence of political poles.

•••••BREAKING••••• Rep. Don Bacon, a prominent Republican on the House Armed Services Committee, is now the first sitting GOP lawmaker to state publicly that Trump should fire Pete Hegseth. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Larry David appears to be responding to his friend Bill Maher here with this NYT Piece “My Dinner With Adolf”

Important from @davetroy.com Convergence (of our political poles) Has Already Started We are already seeing signs of convergence across the current political landscape...where both sides are dissatisfied with the status quo and demanding new solutions and new blood. america2.news/convergence-...

A murderer in church. His sins are unredeemable. What do you think he prays about? (If at all) Because of Putin, millions of Ukrainians cannot go to Easter service - we have curfew, and Russia destroyed or damaged hundreds of churches, killed almost 70 priests and pastors.

An emotional farewell for MSNBC host Katie Phang from Rep. Jasmine Crockett. @katiephang.bsky.social @jasmineforus.bsky.social @repjasmine.bsky.social

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

20,000 in ruby red Utah on their feet, in community, and ready to organize for a better world. A better world is possible.

Columbia may have signed its own death notice. Word has it that tomorrow Columbia will announce an agreement to formal oversight by Trump. This, if true, will signal the death of Columbia as we knew it - a premier teaching and research institution. I explain it here: youtube.com/shorts/W7Rr7...

One puzzle of Trump’s trade war is that he simultaneously argues America is the greatest country on earth and a victim of global trade. That contradiction suggests a deeper insecurity, understood less through policy than psychology and ideology. 🧵 1/

15,000 people RSVP’d for this monumental event. OVER 36,000 people stepped up and showed up to be part of the Fighting the Oligarchy event in L.A. on Saturday!! Our movement is absolutely massive, and building by the day!!

Note that this is for *Americans* to learn those lessons. Europeans learned those lessons, and more (like with 40 years of Soviet repression) the hard way. Do Americans want to?

This is how Kaganovich talked about Stalin.
