a friend in the Twin Cities told me that the debate about whether or not the US will fall into civil war is moot there - the war has already come to Minnesota as federal funds are choked off and the capital is invaded by the President's personal army

The crackdowns are intensifying. The Maduro regime remains in power, with Delcy Rodríguez in command. This was never about democracy or protecting the people of Venezuela. They continue to live in danger and fear while Trump cuts deals with the regime to seize their oil.

On day 8 of our Administration, @governor.ny.gov and I announced the beginning of universal childcare in NYC. No longer will New Yorkers be forced to choose between starting a family and continuing to live in the city they love. This only happened because of you.

Trump holds a meeting of oil CEOs at the White House to project support for his Venezuela plans. But the companies are skeptical.

Weird to be commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Am Rev while living under a government that has a) sent armed troops to occupy cities perceived to be too rebellious, b) rendered largely irrelevant the representative branch of government, and c) claimed imperial right to rule other countries.

In reality, Trump’s ’liberation’ of Venezuela was just like his ’liberation’ of, say, LA, or Iran: he went and made noise, fucked some shit up, but, some unprovoked murders aside, the places remain as they were, more or less.
