Whatever happens now, we absolutely cannot allow Trump's refusal to seek Congressional authorization for what appears to be a large scale military attack on another country vanish from the media discussion, which already appears to be happening.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

I’ve been saying this for months. The only way out of this mess is economic pain. It’s sad for all the people who actively voted and campaigned against this - especially the poorest and most vulnerable among us, but it’s the only way.
Trump voters are gonna have to feel pain, personal & economic pain, before they ever move off of him

I) First, fascism is not inevitable.
Research on autocratic movements show that only about 3,5% of the population need to resist to stop them.
Fascism thrives on the silence of the friends.
That why visible resistance matters.

We need more scientific institutions to show this level of courage, no matter the risk. In fact, we need *all* institutions to stand up*.

If they are so great, why announce them after the market is closed
CNBC reacts right after Trump's "Liberation Day" tariff announcement: "And the market reaction after hours -- I’ve never seen anything like it. This -- I think, fair to say -- is worse than the worst-case scenario of the tariffs that many in the market expected the president to impose."

"Even a rogue marshal’s service, in other words, is not an insurmountable obstacle to courts enforcing the rule of law. If courts have the courage, the legal tools are there."
