Let me just say this right now because this seems to be a growing "joke" trend among climate writers: What Trump is doing is NOT climate action, "degrowth", or a Green New Deal. Trump is systematically destroying the world economy to benefit the rich and make life more deadly for everyone else.

"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

🧵DISMANTLING DEMOCRACY I've been keeping track of Trump actions - now up to 192. Here, I dig into 69 actions specifically targeted at undermining democracy, rule of law & suppressing dissent. It's been 12 weeks of assaults on democracy. based on christinapagel.substack.com/p/a-republic... 1/18

Dass Trump nun schon darüber spricht US-Staatsbürger in Gefängnisse in El Salvador zu stecken bestätigt einmal mehr: Repression wird immer zunächst an denen ausprobiert, die sich nicht wehren können. Irgendwann betrifft es dann alle. Solidarität muss daher die Grundlage jeder Gegenstrategie sein.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

UP FIRST: A whistleblower who works at NLRB says that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data. And, the Trump administration froze over $2 billion for Harvard after it rejected demands.

Hohe CO2-Preise und Klimageld waren immer das Konzept von Union und FDP. Jetzt soll es nur hohe Preise geben - ohne #Klimageld. Wer so agiert wirft das Land der AfD zum Fraß vor. Die Gelbwesten lassen grüßen. Klimaschutz braucht Gerechtigkeit! #Merz www.welt.de/politik/deut...

Die USA sind offiziell kein Rechtsstaat mehr.

Wahnsinn. Dieser nie dagewesene Anstieg der CO2-Konzentration in einem Jahr ist jenseits aller Erwartungen und müsste in zig Sondersendungen erörtert werden, wenn wir als Gesellschaft noch bei Trost wären. Müsste... gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/...

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

Ein Blick auf den Rückzug des Staates aus dem Demokratieschutz. Ein lesenswerter Artikel, der das Demokratieparadoxon beschreibt u. als Plädoyer für ein #AfD-VerbotJetzt verstanden werden kann. Danke Joscha Frahm.

Warum brauchen Politiker die Lüge? Was passiert mit den Menschen, die diese Lügen hören von denen, die sie womöglich gewählt haben? Wissentlich lügen und wissen, dass sie sie lügen - ein Angriff auf Vertrauen und Gewissen. Siehe auch www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xss8...

Ein gründlich recherchierter Artikel, der zeigt, wie fragwürdig mit dem AfD-Gutachten umgegangen wird. Das ständige Hinauszögern und die Ausreden macht fassungslos. Unbedingt lesen! 👇 www.tagesspiegel.de/politik/waru...

Habe ich eigentlich mutuals, die ebenfalls im Mai auf die re:publica gehen? #rp25

Big shout-out to Benson Boone and his band for bringing Queen’s Sir Brian May (a stroke survivor) out to rock the Coachella stage ✨🎸🎤 Lukewarm crowd response notwithstanding, this clip is well-worth 3 minutes of your undivided attention. Gotta trust me on this, team. This is epic:

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

Big Journalism is still doing stenography instead of showing the reality of the Trump regime's headlong race into fascism. At TechDirt, @mmasnick shows how journalism could work if it located a spine. www.techdirt.com/202... 1/2

🧬 Variant Evolution Rate Since 2020 We witnessed a huge weekly growth advantage in new variants for the first year after Omicron arrived, and then to a lesser extent after Pirola. Now we have 9 months of the lowest growth advantages since 2020. 🧵

If SCOTUS can revisit Roe v. Wade, then they definitely can revisit Trump’s immunity…declaring it an ‘oopsie, we had an off day. He doesn't have immunity anymore.’

If President Trump can wrongly deport a Maryland father to a prison in El Salvador and then defy a 9-0 Supreme Court order to facilitate bringing him home, who’s next? This threatens the rights and freedoms of everyone in the United States.

If you are National Guard or active duty military & you are ordered to violate the Constitutional rights of your fellow Americans, call the Gl Rights Hotline 1-877-447-4487 There is support, you don't have to go through with it.

Trump is going to ship US citizens to foreign work/torture camps, with no due process, for life. No one is safe in Trump's America, there is no constitution, there are no checks & balances, just the whims of a corrupt madman.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Hallo! Wir sind Covid Safe Cologne (CSC) - eine neu gegründete Gruppe mit dem Ziel, sichere Treffen (outdoor sowie zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt auch indoor) im Kölner Raum zu veranstalten für Menschen, die covid-bewusst leben und FFP2-Masken tragen, um sich vor Infektionen zu schützen.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

Here is the situation if I’m understanding it correctly: 1. They are deporting lawful immigrants erroneously to prisons overseas 2. They are claiming no recourse to return these individuals 3. They say they are open to deporting citizens in the same way

@revolvingdoordc.bsky.social has been tracking Trump's dictatorial dismissal of the power of judges to enforce the Constitution since mid-February here:

Most people haven’t heard of this test, which is available in the US. It accurately predicts Alzheimer’s (not just if there’s a risk, but when). It is modulated by exercise and likely other lifestyle factors. Here’s (almost) everything we know about it erictopol.substack.com/p/the-breakt...

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

Today, Trump with Bukele, Oval Office: They love you. They love what you do. I want'em to do yeah home grown criminals next. [Louder] I said home growns are next. The home growns. You gotta build about 5 more places. [laughter] It's not big enough. link: x.com/nayibbukele/...

This is a now or never moment. The way we respond over the next few days, as individuals and institutions, is crucial. And currently we're missing the mark. If we don't act now we will lose everything.

HAPPENING NOW: Rümeysa Öztürk (repped by ACLU) has a hearing before Vermont federal judge William K. Sessions III. Öztürk is the Tufts PhD student snatched off the street by ICE and now facing deportation for cowriting a pro-Palestine op-ed in the student newspaper. 🧵

📣 Update zur #Petition: www.change.org/HygieneNeuDe... 📣 Erst einmal vielen Dank für eure Unterschriften!😍🍀 Gestern hatte ich euch ja darüber informiert, dass ich den Petitionstext um die Pro-Argumente ergänzt habe. Heute möchte ich euch das Update teilen, welches ich der Petition beigefügt habe

📣 www.change.org/HygieneNeuDe... 📣 Wir haben die 100 geknackt! Erst einmal vielen Dank dafür ♥ Ich habe gestern noch die #Petition #HygieneNeuDenken ergänzt um die wirtschaftlichen und finanziellen Aspekte. Die möchte ich auch hier mit euch teilen ↓

Trump’s dress code now includes loyalty pins with his face—like Mao & Kim. FCC chair Carr was seen wearing one. Gold versions are sold online. Miss the memo, and you're marked as disloyal. That's how dictators roll. It's a warning: obey, or be targeted. This is cult behavior enforced by state power.

"the state can just summarily imprison someone without filing charges or holding a trial" doesn't just overturn democracy it overturns 1000 years of common law, like throwing out the entire legal system entirely and saying all people in America are the state's property.

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.
