"State Terror: A brief guide for Americans"
Revisiting a piece I wrote in April 2025
"In the history of state terror, the escape from law into coercion takes three forms... the leader principle; the state of exception; and the zone of statelessness."

Does this mean Tom Homan will get the Presidential Medal of Honor? Trumps been pretty consistent in this….
"Homan indicated he would facilitate securing contracts for them in exchange for money once he was in office...

"On Sept. 20, 2024, with hidden cameras recording the scene at a meeting spot in Texas, Homan accepted $50,000 in bills..."

www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...
Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

Dear @msnbc.com

Hire @TerryMoranABC immediately. Give him a new show.

Rachel is on fire 🔥
Trump already can't handle the amount of protests against him, and that number is about to increase with No Kings Day this Saturday.

I think @jaketapper.bsky.social wrote a book on the wrong president.
Trump to UAE president: "We have a term 'groceries.' It's an old term but it means basically what you're buying, food, it's a pretty accurate term but it's an old fashioned sound but groceries are down."

Bob Menendez got sentenced to 11 years in prison for accepting gold bars from Egypt - Trump can get 11 years in prison for accepting a Boeing jumbo jet from Qatar.

Here it is. A timetable of 100 days of corruption.

Breathtaking. Heartbreaking.

We cannot let this stand.

If a company shows the tariff costs I will respect that and buy from them.

If you hide those tariff costs, I’ll shop elsewhere.

I love the term collaborators in this post. That is exactly it.
The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC.

Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

Well fu*k him!
The White House has just released a new official statement as the economy crashes:

“The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.”

Did you lose your NEH grant here in New Mexico? Submit a complaint to the NMDOJ. You had a contract and it’s being ignored, which is illegal. Here’s the NM Dept of Justice Complaint Form. nmdoj.gov/get-help/sub...

Anyone who takes any Oligarch at his word hasn’t studied history.
Witkoff on Ukraine: "There's a view within the country of Russia that these are Russian territories, that there are referendums within these territories that justify these actions ... I just don't see that [Putin] wants to take all of Europe ... I take him as his word."

Here’s a cheat sheet with all the phone numbers for the US Senate. I have a feeling we’ll be calling them a lot in the near future.
