NPR published a story 5 days ago about three high ranking Trump officials with clear ties to Hitler-admiring antisemites and it barely made a ripple. These are the kind of stories that used to end political careers. Now the subjects of the stories just hold up a middle finger and keep plowing ahead.

My family found a home here after fleeing the pogroms in Ukraine.

This country accepted us as refugees when we had nothing except the shirts on our backs.

We've seen what can happen when we don't speak up about the dangers — it's time to raise the alarm now.

Carney: The system of global trade anchored on the United States.. is over. Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over. The 80 year period when the United States embraced the mantle of economic leadership… is over.

There are trans Americans right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist.

Well, I am. We are. We will.

Thanks for the shoutout!
"The story drew on private recordings of a series of speeches given in 2023 and 2024 by Russell Vought obtained by our colleagues at Documented, a news site with a remarkable knack for uncovering information powerful interests would prefer remained secret."
NEW: In October, we published secret recordings of Russell Vought discussing plans to eviscerate entire agencies and decimate the morale of federal workers if Trump won a second term.

It's hard to imagine a more prescient piece of journalism, our editor-in-chief @sengelberg.bsky.social writes.
The October Story That Outlined Exactly What the Trump Administration Would Do to the Federal Bureaucracy
Historians have hindsight when they look into the past; journalists have the facts on the ground and context to help them look ahead. That means we can sometimes be surprised by how prescient a story ...

The CFPB is one of the American people’s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse.

Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

I’m going to re-up the fact that yesterday Trump appears to have just shut down virtually all federal transportation, water, energy, & broadband spending… has there been any coverage of this?
One of Trump’s executive orders, on energy (www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...) includes this element, which appears to be asserting the admin will pause all funding from both the IRA & the infrastructure law, which funds highways, transit, water, broadband, etc.

"It is imperative that we all recognize our shared responsibility to aid and encourage the construction of enough housing to ease our housing shortage."

That's why we exist! Please read and widely share Hamilton's article.
Los Angeles' inability to upzone single family neighborhoods even in the face of a state mandate and the threat of losing Congressional seats and an acute housing shortage goes to show: Housing is the issue where progressive values crumble.
