This week feels like a potential tipping point. A lot of people seem to finally understand the stakes---universities, press, even very conservative judges waking up.

OMFG!! "We were talking internally about these demands but nobody authorized actually sending them." I call bullshit. Harvard stood up to the bully and the bully is now looking for a face-saving way to run away and sob in the corner

Congressman Sean Casten on the choice all public figures must make under the Trump regime:
Courage is contagious. So is fear. All public figures right now - elected or otherwise - have a choice about which contagion we are going to spread. If we put democracy first, we choose the former. If we put our personal self-interest first, we choose the latter. /fin

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

A note on JD Vance's repulsive response to the deportation of a Salvadoran in "error": The whole point of his stunt is to show that Trump feels free to remove people even when the law *doesn't* justify it.

I spoke to the man's lawyer. Absolutely hair raising stuff:

The Lawlessness Is the Point
The Trump administration just admitted that a Salvadoran man was deported in error. Shockingly, Trump and JD Vance don't seem to want to fix their mistake—and the implications of that are dark.

If you’re not watching Cory Booker live now on YouTube, do it. This is historic. And it’s great to hear the other democrats speaking also.

Cory Booker is badass. That is all.

This guy is great.
Auto parts cross the Canada-U.S. border six times on average before final assembly. In a trade crisis, that’s a vulnerability for our workers.

It’s time to build up that supply chain right here in Canada.

Breathtaking.
