Completely agree with @sulliview.bsky.social that while the press is doing some strong reporting on Trump/Musk, it's lacking the SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS energy that is required of such a crisis.

"we need the American press to be at its best right now."

The split personality of Big Journalism in covering this nightmare
The reporting is essential. But what about the ability to make sense of the chaos and sound the alarm?

Text SIGN PHTPYP to 50409 to send a letter to your Senators urging them to actively oppose the nomination of RFK Jr for Secretary of Health and Human Services. It's a tool called "Resistbot" and it's very useful!!!

How is turning immigration arrests into reality tv not leading the news everywhere today? Chicago news outlets got it right. Where's everybody else on this folly? A tv doctor is live streaming immigration arrests?! That's disgusting and it's news. Cover it, call it out. 1/

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

She's braver than essentially the entire Democratic Party and the entire media industry
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

The White House ordering DOJ to drop pending prosecutions is a breach of the department’s traditional independence that would be an earthshaking scandal under ordinary circumstances.
To clarify this, Trump commuted the sentences of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers convicted in seditious conspiracy cases. He has pardoned everyone else who was convicted, including those who assaulted the police. And he has ordered DOJ to drop any pending cases.
