I was interviewed today re: the relevance of the Declaration of Independence
People think "When in the Course of Human Events" is the imp't part. The preamble.
But the meat is the long list of sins the King committed vs the colonists.
They believed their rights were being violated by a tyrant.

If you let the executive deport people to a foreign gulag just by pronouncing the word “terrorism,” then expect to be called a “terrorist” soon yourself.

The news cycle is exhausting. Friends tell me to tune it out but I can't. "My desire to be well-informed is currently at odds with my desire to remain sane.”
I need a constructive way to channel my rage. To be a small force for good. Tell me how you do this. How are YOU making good trouble?

Trump, Vance, and Musk are playing a game without rules. If we keep acting like the old rules still apply, we lose.

For anyone wondering why Donald Trump refuses to criticise Putin, while hectoring Zelenskyy, here is my piece about the US president's 1987 trip to Moscow. Trump's visit was arranged by the ... KGB.

The Hidden History of Trump’s First Trip to Moscow
In 1987, a young real estate developer traveled to the Soviet Union. The KGB almost certainly made the trip happen.

I've said it before and will say it again -- the Trump administration is not acting like one that fears democratic accountability next year or in 2028. Draw your own conclusions.
it's still just striking to me that we're five weeks into this, and neither trump nor musk are offering up any treats, to anyone. everything is bad news. everything makes life harder. the only thing they're offering is a tax cut for *extremely* wealthy people, at the expense of *everyone* else.

Red states, the ball's in your court! I call my reps often, but I'm preaching to the choir.
Your voice has power. Call your reps & ask why they're allowing vets & elders to lose healthcare, firing scientists, wrecking the DOE & gutting our NPS. Tell them you're watching, hold them accountable.

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.
