This.
Possible to start to tell a unified story: "Trump is personally too old, crazy, and confused to run things, so at any given time the question is which co-president is in charge. At first it was Musk, & we got the crazy chaotic DOGE era. Then Navarro: a trade war that crashed markets. Now Miller..."

The state of free speech in Trump's America
A central promise of President Trump’s 2024 campaign was that, if elected, he would “restore free speech.” In September 2024, at a campaign rally in Wisconsin, Trump said, “I will bring back free spee...

There's this horrible scene, and so far, two journalists - a British man, and an Australian woman, have been hit by "less lethal" rounds.

Masked people smashing car windows and dragging people out of cars and putting them in unmarked vehicles - people don't want to live like this.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

"The administration has laid off thousands of workers from coast to coast who had supervised education, child care, child support and child protective services systems, and it has blocked or delayed billions of dollars in funding for things like school meals and school safety."
Multiple nonprofits serving exploited children declined to speak on the record to ProPublica, fearing that doing so might undermine what chance they still had of getting potential grants.

“Look at what happened to the law firms,” one official said.
The Trump Administration’s War on Children
The administration is quietly putting America’s children at risk by cutting funds and manpower for investigating child abuse, enforcing child support payments, providing child care and much more.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t.

Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me.

A generation of Americans gave their lives for democracy and the American idea.

This Memorial Day, we face our own test — not of war, but of character.

Fear is rising. So is cruelty. The question is: who will we choose to be?

I wrote about that here.

DUE PROCESS is long overdue for Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Rep. Dan Goldman is demanding answers from the ever-defiant, infuriatingly non-compliant Homeland Security Director Kristi Noem.

This progressive judge is Democrats’ best hope to take down Elon Musk
Susan Crawford can strike the first electoral blow against Musk and Trump’s plans for oligarchy.

So, US health and science agencies are no longer able to study or take part in public health messaging? The right has used the so-called “censorship” narrative to censor any and all research seeking to understand and/or intervene in their bullshit machine.
🚨 NIH sent out another data call, this time for projects "related to any form of censorship at all or directing people to believe one idea over another related to health outcomes… e,g., any contracts to promote COVID vaccine uptake," I'm told.

These data calls have recently preceded terminations.
