I can't tell if it's because I'm too NYC focused but does it feel like the news cycle spent more time crashing out on the fact that NYC picked a brown Muslim dude as is primary candidate then it did on a right wing extremist who shot 2 Minnesota legislators killing one, her husband and dog?

Remember in “The Giver” when the main character starts to see thru the programming and brainwashing that he lived his whole life? Yea that’s how I felt to have my eyes opened to everything in this country the last few years.

Terrific, sobering article from @alexhh.bsky.social. It's frankly terrifying to see the mounting evidence of censorship and repression in "the home of the free", underscored by eliminating the VoA, set up in 1942 to counter Nazi and Japanese propaganda. Trump is shutting out the truth.

In this interview Schumer says he agrees with Trump’s decision to pull $400 million from Columbia. A university in his own state. And he’s unconcerned about the unlawful arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, one of his constituents.

He is a traitor who needs to resign.

Murphy: "This is not a normal political fight. What Trump is doing right now is absolutely insidious. He is every single day acting unconstitutionally, he is trying to destroy the rule of law ... this to me is a moment where we need to be restraining POTUS's power, not giving him new authorities"

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is *on its face* a violation the equal protection of the laws.

The CFPB has returned $21 billion to 205 million consumers who were scammed at the hands of predatory banks. You can root out waste, fraud, and abuse... or you can eliminate the CFPB. But you can't do both.

So Sisi is threatening to call off his White House meeting if Trump continues to push for Palestinian displacement.

This comes after the Jordan king said after meeting Trump that he “reiterated Jordan’s steadfast position against the displacement of Palestinians."
