Millions of us called, wrote, rallied, and protested to protect healthcare. And these 8 people folded, but we won’t. We will remember your betrayal.

Last year the Japanese variety show Gaki no Tsukai had the famous singer Yoko Takahashi go undercover at a restaurant where she fooled everyone right up until she took the stage and belted out A Cruel Angel's Thesis, the intro song to Neon Genesis Evangelion. Just stunning.

“A contest between two sciences (endocrinology and genetics) and two very different social movements (homosexual rights and eugenics) had begun. The hatred that engulfed Germany in 1933 developed from small seeds planted in the nineteenth century. But so, too, did the seeds of rebellion against it.”

So what's next after today's May Day mobilizations?

On June 14, Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday.

But real power isn't staged in DC. It rises up everywhere else. That's why we're planning a nationwide day of action to say No Kings. 🧵

The Trump regime is on the cusp of a showdown with the Supreme Court.

Depending on what the Court does and how the regime responds, it could openly become a dictatorship two ways. Some thoughts... robertreich.substack.com/p/the-two-ti...

It’s called empathy — it’s an endangered superpower. I’m a Planner. Many years of interacting with the public to explain complex projects in a way that was not frightening to a community has made me frustrated with the way important info is so poorly shared by people who should know better.

This is why they want to destroy us. Our superpower is explaining complicated things in a way that everyone can understand. They are going to try to destroy us whether we do it or not. I’m not going down without a fight.

The Trump-Vance-Musk regime is not only undermining democracy in the United States.

It is also laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world.

And the oligarchy is cheering them on. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/paying-off-putin

The Senate has confirmed Kash Patel, who has published an enemies list identical to Trump's, to serve a 10-year term as FBI Director.

He will be a major cog in Trump's vengeance machine to silence and intimidate critics.

Be warned. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/kash-patel-in-his-own-words

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.
