Trump posted: ‘All federal funding will STOP for any college, school, or university that allows illegal protests. Agitators will be imprisoned or permanently sent back to the country from which they came. American students will be permanently expelled or, depending on the crime, arrested. NO MASKS!’

Jeff Bezos is making @washingtonpost.com a "Pravda on the Potomac".
Truth: Bezos' move to make @postopinions.bsky.social a libertarian mouthpiece is accelerating the Post's transition into a right-wing, authoritarian supporting outlet like Putin's Pravda.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.
