Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

This is on the heels of his administration’s cuts of over $800 million to police, prosecutors, courts and more across the country.

Trump is defunding the police to help pay for a tax cut for billionaires.

White House seeks budget cuts for Justice Department law enforcement offices, sources say
The White House is poised to ask Congress to cut funding for several of the Justice Department's law enforcement offices under a budget proposal that would likely hamper its ability to carry out the Trump administration's pledge to crack down on violent crime, three sources familiar with the matter said.

Because the reporting across outlets hasn’t mentioned it I want to stress that Justice Jackson referenced the courageous & resolute stance of federal judges J. Shelly Wright in Louisiana and Frank Johnson in Alabama who issued school desegregation orders in the face of “Massive Resistance” to Brown.
Powerful remarks from Justice KBJ last night. There was tremendous appreciation and gratitude in the room for her willingness to speak to this important issue so candidly and forcefully.

“When famously squaring off with President Donald Trump over education funding, Mills said she would see Trump in court. She did just that, and on Friday she won a settlement for her state, for the kids and for people everywhere who needed to see a certain asshole bully get punched right in the eye”
Our latest: Janet Mills beats Trump and lets him hear about it. Janet Mills wouldn’t bend the knee. Instead, she kicked the ass. The orange ass, to be specific.

Hold steady folks. An EO is not law and “Trump says” is not the last word.
The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.

BUFFALO, NY: We are mobilizing to protest the arrest and detention of a group of UFW farm worker leaders we believe are being held at the Batavia ICE detention center.

We believe targeting known union supporters in the name of immigration “enforcement” is an outrage. These workers must be released.

This isn't hypothetical.

The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

Here’s the thing about a strike: we can’t call one until we’re ready. If we do, the government will know to just wait us out. We won’t be able to last as long as we need to to be successful.

And this doesn’t just mean everyone needs to sign a strike card. There’s so much more.

Every time an authoritarian con-artist is held accountable, every time the mask slips in a courtroom, the spell weakens.

It takes pressure. It takes a public that doesn't flinch when the volume gets turned up. It takes faith - not in the perfection of institutions, but in their potential.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID.

This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC.

What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.
Elon Musk: "We will make mistakes. We won't be perfect ... so for example, with USAID, one of the things we accidentally canceled very briefly was ebola prevention."

If this goes into effect, it will crush higher ed in the U.S.: mass layoffs, slashed services, and even higher tuitions. When coupled with the government firings, it will cause a sharp recession just as the Republicans slash nutritional and medical support for the poor.

And that’s the point.
I completely missed that Republicans introduced a bill to increase the endowment tax from 1.4% to 21%. If passed, Harvard would go from paying ~$35m to $525m/yr in federal taxes (that’s 8.2% of its current operating expenses)
