From the get go of the second Trump administration, it was clear that the president would try to pass a bunch of executive orders without any clear indication that he, or his trusted advisors, actually knew if it was legal. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/wha...

Trump & His Supporters Think He Should Be King #ABlueView🧵1/3 They're so cocky & drunk on their non-existent mandate (tinyurl.com/3bnjr8kk) that they're now willing to not just say the quite part out loud they put it on the WH website: Trump is King & should stay > 4 years.

French President Emmanuel Macron: "Russia has produced a considerable war effort, with the result that Russia today invests 10% of its gross domestic product in arms production. In France, it's 2%. And we've almost doubled our budget since I've been here.

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

Not easy to do, but I think this hits all three words in the oft-said "waste, fraud, and abuse" of taxpayer dollars.

A federal judge has blocked the Trump admin from terminating federal grants and contracts related to DEI. The ruling bars Trump from requiring federal contractors and grant recipients to certify that they don't engage in "equity-related" programs, a term the judge found too vague to be enforced.

George Conway is right. Yes, the military purges are racist, but they are also treasonous. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs was not fired just for being Black. He was fired for being honorable. That's why his replacement is not just White, but also under-qualified and on the Trump family payroll. 1/

It’s not the worst thing, but it’s incredibly ridiculous that the president is spending a bunch of time trying to force a silly golf merger agreement

They are going to ignore court orders. If they ignore court orders, the social contract is dead and buried, the constitution is no longer in effect. It's a rubicon that cannot be uncrossed.

At an anti-AfD/pro-diversity protest today, a man collapsed. 1st aiders took him to the side to treat him. Immediately, a cordon of people formed around them, shoulder-to-shoulder, backs to the medics/patient, to give them privacy & protect them from gawkers & filming. Great move.

Trump’s Pentagon purge has included the top military lawyers. Nobody should be surprised. Dictators politicize the military. Trump wants those with the biggest guns loyal to him, not the Constitution He says he’s demilitarizing it. I call BS. Orwellian to the core. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

I knit a lot of lace on the train over the years commuting to work. I’ll share my most ambition lace project, Evenstar, by Susan Pandorf. Beautiful laceweight merino wool with a beaded edge. Blocked it was 60” across. Not very wearable and a struggle to photograph but I love it. 🧶#showusyourknits
