JD Vance just dropped the college football championship trophy. I think this is an analogy for the whole Trump administration.

Trump to Bukele on building concentration camps for US citizens after making the Supreme Court obsolete: "Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It's not big enough." The whole room laughs. (via @atrupar)

Half a million people have been waiting for you to say this, Jack. You finally said some things about some stuff. Well put.

Sanders: A woman is walking down the street, a car stops, and these guys — in plain clothes and masks — grab her, throw her into the car, and take off. That happened in Vermont today. That’s the kind of thing that happens in dictatorships, not in a democracy.

There will be many small moments in our lives moving forward that require a little bit of quiet bravery, of holding your breath while you do the necessary thing.

Pay attention. Trump is a big fan of Orban's policies, and if you think that this can't happen here, you're in denial. These things have a way of catching fire. Once it happens in one place, the others feel emboldened to follow in their example. They want to make it illegal for people to be gay.

NO ONE should be sent to El Salvador, you baby-brained losers. My God.
