"Creating a ruckus" is his euphemism for wrote an op-ed in a newspaper. The Constitution protects all people under U.S. jurisdiction (not just citizens) from government actions penalizing them for speech, use of the free press, or peaceful assembly.

This jibes with contemporary reporting that the raids hit several residential buildings, in each case killing about 15 people and wounding more. Maybe a little more of the conversation should be about how cavalier we apparently are about bombing civilian homes? www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/3/...

The biggest divide in America today is not between “right” and “left,” or between Republicans and Democrats. 

It’s between democracy and oligarchy. 

The old labels — “right” and “left” — prevent most people from noticing they’re being shafted. 

Know the truth.

JUST BECAUSE THE CLOWN CAR GOES VERY FAST DOES NOT MEAN IT ISN’T FULL OF CLOWNS
the speed at which these guys have broken everything has given a lot of folks who should know better the impression that they are an unstoppable force and the only option is to negotiate the terms of surrender

just because the clown car goes very fast does not mean it isn’t full of clowns
Whatever the immediate fallout of the scandal, what is going to stick around is the impression it gives, of hapless idiots doing ridiculous things. And I think that seriously reduces the appeal of capitulating to these jokers.

The Trump regime's repeated attacks on "DEI," "wokeness," and the trans community have one clear purpose:

If we are angry at each other, we don't look up to see how big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

i wonder if any of the sensible centrists are going to call axios hysterical for making this straightforward observation

This is not dems vs republicans or rural vs urban- this is class warfare.
Trump’s Commerce Secretary just said seniors shouldn’t “call and complain” if they stop getting their Social Security checks: “A fraudster always makes the loudest noise screaming and complaining.”

A 1940's racial equality baseball ad featuring Jackie Robinson and others. MAGA would likely call this DEI.

This flew under the radar, but Trump says his administration won't enforce an anti-money laundering law that requires corporations to disclose information on who really owns shell companies to the Treasury.

"Drain the swamp."

If that’s the case, then the Democratic Party looks a lot like the caricature of a T-Rex.
Trump at the DOJ: "I believe that CNN and MSNDC, who literally write 97.6% bad about me, are political arms of the Democrat Party. And in my opinion, they are really corrupt and they are illegal. What they do is illegal."

Man watches too much TV
Trump: "In major cities like New York, Chicago, and Washington, mothers can't walk their children to the park without fear of being shot, or killed, or raped, or anything. Women can't ride the subway without worrying that a hoodlum will shove them onto the train tracks."

Trump is slashing another 1,000 jobs at NOAA.

The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US.

A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans. 

Again, this isn't about efficiency.
The US agency that monitors weather will cut another 1,000 jobs, AP sources say
Multiple sources tell The Associated Press that the Trump Administration is starting another round of job cuts — this one more than 1,000 — at the nation’s weather, ocean and fisheries agency.

This has never been about cost savings.
The National Park budget is $3 billion.

It produces $55 billion in revenue.

This isn’t about balancing a budget. It’s about Trump and Musk privatizing public lands to add to their rich buddies portfolios.

When their stated motivation is demonstrably false, and it has been proven false, and everyone knows it’s false, it is worth wondering what the real motivation is.
The Trump administration keeps saying that other countries pay for tariffs, but that’s not how they work.

Tariffs are effectively taxes on imported products, which the American people ultimately pay.
Leavitt: Tariffs are a tax hike on foreign countries and a tax cut for the American people

Reporter: Have you ever paid a tariff? I have. They don’t get charged on foreign countries

Leavitt: I think it’s insulting that you are trying test my knowledge on economics
