Emerging from the darkness of this era will require us to acknowledge that the previous status quo, including many institutions that may have served us well in another era, have been failing for my entire lifetime.

This is your reminder that a prison without due process is a concentration camp.

Chris Murphy: "Why did Trump choose these 3 countries to go for his first major foreign trip? It's not because these are our most important allies or the most important countries in the world. It's because these are the 3 countries willing to pay him off ... this is the definition of corruption."

RAMAPHOSA: I am sorry I don't have a plane to give you
TRUMP: I wish you did. I'd take it. If your country offered the US Air Force a plane, I would take it

Trump’s DOJ says DOGE isn’t an agency—just “advice.”
They axed workers, killed contracts, gutted programs.
Now they want SCOTUS to block watchdogs from seeing how.
This isn’t secrecy.
It’s sabotage—wrapped in a loophole.

Golden Dome is a missile defense fantasy so staggeringly unworkable it makes Fyre Festival look like a military success. It will never work. It will never be built. But Elon Musk and defense companies will make billions.

The absolute disgrace taking place today in front of cameras in the White House is yet another reminder that for all the talk of Joe Biden's failures, the people who failed America the most are our citizens. Empowering this guy (again) was a foreseeable disaster we'll be lucky to survive.

Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Auschwitz — a complex of over 40 concentration and extermination camps — was not located in Nazi Germany either.

If Stephen Miller can lie about Abrego Garcia and his case on national TV, he can do it in federal court under oath. Judge Xinis should demand his appearance, question him under oath, then jail him for Contempt when he commits Perjury.
This lawless administration has to be subjected to rule of law.

DOGE has just completely gutted the IMLS, firing all staff, closing down their email addresses, and leaving any funding for 2025 in question.

DOGE fired all IMLS employees and closed down their emails. It is assumed all funding for 2025 coming from the federal agency will not be happening.

“Please understand that this action is not punitive but rather is taken to facilitate the work and operations of the agency.”

that Noem video reinforces my belief that there is a streak of sexualized sadism on the US right that goes back to lynching imagery but began in its most recent form with the enthusiasm for torture during the Bush years.
