Today’s Executive Order creating a *nationwide* military “quick reaction force” and setting up an online portal to permit random fascist vigilantes to join soldiers is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in U.S. politics in my adult life. Why is it not getting more attention?

- file impeachment articles every day in the House
- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee
- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

You can’t import another country’s vaccine policy without first importing their actual healthcare system.
Our vaccine recommendations fill structural gaps in our healthcare system, which is widely regarded as fragmented, inaccessible to many, and riven with inequalities.

If the U.S. government is now saying it’s okay to kidnap foreign leaders if they are criminals, can anyone remind Trump that he himself is a convicted criminal?

This must happen for all of Trump’s post-conviction actions as well.
Which of course, means all of them.

A brilliant opening maneuver. Framing his predecessor's tenure as aberrant and illegitimate is both totally reasonable and creates room for radical change.
I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.
He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.
