It’s fucking infuriating that the authoritarian regime has troops in the streets and all you hear in coverage is concern about “anarchists and extremists.” The fascists are fucking extreme. Corporate media is a curse on this society.

If you strip away the egos and shitposting, the Trump-Musk feud is really an argument over how comprehensively to screw over poor and working people—over how best to make our society a meaner, crueler, less equal, more savage place. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1962...

🔥🔥🔥🔥 Pay attention. This happened last night outside immigration court in NYC. A peaceful, lawful protest about the ICE arrests inside court earlier. Unprovoked, NYPD SRG violently started arresting people. Trump’s America

The mask is coming off of the Network State cult. Here is Network State evangelist Balaji Srinivasan boosting Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong calling for the creation "10 or so" new tech cities on federal land. Of course, Trump has already announced plans for 10 new cities...

In 2024, Ernst Van Zyl of Afriforum—a White Afrikaner group that has been accused of treason re: Trump’s actions against South Africa—acknowledged that “there is no white genocide” in South Africa. But Trump just used the white genocide myth to justify giving White Afrikaners refugee status. 1/

Here is a list I recently sent to premium members of what each of us can do to stand up for democracy and defend our elections. Democracy Docket is dropping the paywall and publishing it because we must all feel the power we have to stand up to Trump and protect our democracy.

I can't help but feel we are rapidly approaching the point where attempts to disappear individuals, hold them indefinitely, and brutalize protesters is going to be met with retaliatory violence. The indicators are all there and the chance for wild, paradigm-changing clashes is growing.

Just amazing: Trump grew angry over a Biden-era program with the word "equity" in its name, so he ended it. But a key part of the program was sending money to red states to expand internet access in rural/MAGA country. Now they might not get it. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1950...

Have you heard about Trump's proposed new "Golden Dome" anti-missile system that'll cost about $30 billion to build & will be a subscription service run by Tesla & Palantir? If the U.S. forgets its monthly subscription $, North Korean ICBMs will rain down nuclear destruction on NYC, LA, & Dallas.

Plenty of folks have posted the clip of Jessica Tarlov talking about the Fox News poll graphic on Special Report with Bret Baier. I thought it would be fun to combine them. The polls weren't looking great for Trump last week - even on Fox News.
