The Republican reaction to Kirk’s murder has been a campaign of state repression that ends with Trumpist toadies deciding what Americans are allowed to think, do and say. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The same judge who is overseeing the case where the government is invoking "state secrets" to avoid telling the court when the planes took off (which is public) & who was on the planes (many of whom the media have reported)
has the case about the admin sharing war plans with the media.

Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws
Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds.
Gov Mills: See you in court

"One family from our church said ICE pounded on their door so hard they thought it would break down. Ten people lived in that small unit, including several children. They asked to see a warrant. The officers ignored them and continued yelling in English, refusing to answer."
Opinion: I witnessed ICE’s militarized raid in Denver. It was cruelty unchecked.

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

One GOP proposal takes aim squarely at parents raising children on their own by eliminating the “head of household” filing status to reap some $200B more in taxes over a decade from single parents and other adults caring for dependents on their own.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

So a little bit about federal grants being suspended from the perspective of a retired person who was funded by NIH grants for 20-odd years. I first want to extend my sorrow to colleagues who are affected by this. Next, for those of you who don’t work in academic science, I want to share how…1/4

I know a lot of people are exhausted. And many have vowed to check out, tune out, etc.
But that's what they want--a public too exhausted to be outraged and utterly anesthetized to what is happening.
