One Admiral resigned rather than carry out an illegal order, while the other Admiral followed those orders. One Admiral has no job, but he has his dignity and our respect, while the other needs a lawyer and a pardon

They cannot be given authority to forcibly remove anyone from their vehicle this way. Think about how bad actors would abuse this power.

A handful of people were protesting Trump on Friday a couple blocks away from the Kennedy Center in the view of those headed to the World Cup draw.
The protest happening in the shadow of the Watergate Complex might have been a bit too on the nose. But, also, maybe not.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Trump embraced Zohran Mamdani even after Mamdani called him a fascist. Why? Because Mamdani understands Trump only respects strength—and strength means taking away the voters who fuel his power. @saletan.bsky.social breaks down the strategy.
What Mamdani Gets About Trump
When New York’s mayor-elect met with the authoritarian president, he didn’t waste time with denunciations. But he didn’t exactly hold back.

Do we say a man is sane when he calls in the military to fight a war when there is no war? If such a man is not sane, do we have a solution to stop the madness if he’s in the White House?

Instead of putting "tariff" on the tag, some retailers are slipping costs into shipping, fees or relabels.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.
Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.
