Grandmas & clergy with small signs @RepChrisTodd & the GOP didn’t like (“Jesus was a refugee”) who said nothing were carried out by troopers despite Alison admitting she was who talked 👇🏽

📸 👇🏽Signs in the audience as Rep. Chris Todd & Tennessee Republicans pass their special session immigration crackdown bill, having grandmas and clergy carried out by troopers
Part of the bill makes it a FELONY to even VOTE for sanctuary policies

Seems that China will soon have a clear path to lead the world in a lot of fields. US leadership is just beyond stupidity.

They…turned off…National Institutes of Health grants? That’s nearly $50 billion of scientific research.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.
Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

The Washington Post editorial this morning essentially equating Biden's questionable pardons with Trump's outrageous Jan. 6 pardons was unconscionable. The newspaper I've been part of for 48 years has utterly lost its soul.

President Donald Trump threatened to withhold federal aid from California as it works to recover from devastating wildfires, recycling several baseless claims and attacks against California’s Democratic leaders during his first sit-down interview since his inauguration.

the thing most people, and most notably white people but this applies across the board, is that resistance to oppression is neither a marathon nor a sprint but a diverse and multi-faceted effort, much of which will result in no victories whatsoever

In 2025 America, you can commit any crime as long as you're wearing a MAGA hat.
A violent insurrection? You're a patriot. Killing people at a BLM rally? You're now pardoned. Beating up police officers at the Capitol? Freedom fighter. Sexually assault a woman? You're in Trump's Cabinet.

It’s been obvious all along he gave zero shits about the economy. Also, imagine winning and still complaining like this.
Hannity as Trump rants about Biden not pardoning himself: "Let me get to the economy."
Trump: "I don't care."

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.
Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.
