The builders behind Alligator Alcatraz and other detention sites are top DeSantis donors.

They scored no-bid or “emergency” contracts worth tens of millions—while funneling cash into his political machine.

Congress has approved the first national school voucher plan, which will help all but the wealthiest families pay for private school and other educational expenses. But states must opt in, which could limit its reach.

the way calling for the deportation of any visible non-white person is rapidly becoming normalized is a huge cause for concern.

Gavin Newsom didn't choose this fight, but now that he's in it, he's relearning an important lesson: fighting MAGA is a good look.

it is nigh impossible to meaningfully differentiate this culture of violence from the jim crow era. a nation under occupation and set back, quite literally, by half a century. those are the table stakes.
A Florida sheriff warned protesters in a press conference on Thursday that "we will kill you, graveyard dead" if they throw weapons or point a gun at officers.

Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey made the remark at an event with local law enforcement that declared Florida as "The Anti-Riot State."

A pop-up shop that sells pro-Trump and other conservative-coded memorabilia, was set up on-site with campaign-style merchandise on Army property. Soldiers were seen purchasing "Make America Great Again" chain necklaces and faux credit cards labeled "White Privilege Card: Trumps Everything."
Really important story - army officials asked soldiers to identify themselves if they don't agree with Trump's politics that way he'd get only supportive soldiers in uniform during his political rally on base. Heavier soldiers were also barred from participating.
