EXCLUSIVE — The Onion has a full-page ad in today’s NYT featuring part of an editorial calling out congressional fecklessness towards Trump. They also sent a copy of their latest issue to every lawmaker.

Yet Luigi launched a thousand hand-wringing op-eds from the chattering class. Makes you think
A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

Whatever Iran decides to do in response is 100% the fault of Trump and Netanyahu.

Maybe when Americans are at risk yall will finally realize how pointless and destructive war is and stop letting these white supremacists to drag you into global conflict.

Trump turning 'will I attack Iran?' into a reality TV show is probably one of the better options here because he will draw it out indefinitely to keep the focus on himself and then get distracted by something else.

Stop using the term “illegal immigrant” and “illegal immigration”: It’s inaccurate, misleading and harmful. Good slide from UN Refugee Agency

Saying Cuomo (67 year old sex pest) is the future of the national Democratic Party really means national party leadership are intent on driving us off a cliff. This really is the time for our own tea party moment.

Georgia can’t lead on civil rights while criminalizing the poor.

@warnock.senate.gov and @ossoff.senate.gov supported the a bill that fuels racial profiling & ICE raids on our unhoused neighbors.

We’re calling on them to undo the harm.

I appreciate white women putting their bodies on the line because brown shirts roughing up white women is still something that will bother a lot of Americans. If it were a Black woman, you’d have a very different response. Also Trump is itching to use Black protest as a reason for martial law, imo.

Consider this. 6 people in plainclothes approach you, and begin to cover their faces. At least one appears armed. As they grab your phone and backpack, they do not prove who they are. They say they're going to take you, but they're not saying why.

What would you call that?
NEW—After a day of uncertainty on where agents took Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk, she appears to be in a Louisiana facility.

1400+ miles from Somerville, Massachusetts, where she was taken.

A judge ordered to not take her out of state without 48 hour notice. She was detained last night.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

The seeming lack of concern about the “DEI” purges is either naïveté or willful ignorance of the fact that this is not about diversity training or hiring goals but about enacting a neo-segregation across American life.
Interesting. New contracting memorandum from Secy of Defense says military contracts shld stop including language that bars contractors from running segregated facilities.

Regardless your specific view on this, consider what it means for the Trump/Vance administration to halt aid to Ukraine, but then in the same week rush $4 billion more to Israel as it blocks all aid into Gaza
