This Is Exactly the Right Time for Democratic Infighting
Tim Walz says we 'don't have the luxury' to fight ourselves. He's wrong. The Democrats who created Trump will create the next one too.

The Big Fucked Up Bill, is NOT a spending bill.
It’s a government restructuring bill, that consolidates power in the executive, defunds critical services to the point of absurdity, removes the power of our courts to enforce the law and dramatically curtails voting rights.
It’s Project 2025

Utterly privileged to narrate Magdaléna Platzová's Life After Kafka - highly recommend must reading for fans of exquisitely deft literary explorations.
My piece on Alex Zucker’s translation of LIFE AFTER KAFKA, by Magdaléna Platzová, is here:
“The Poison of the Letters”: How Magdaléna Platzová Reclaims Lives - Words Without Borders
“Life After Kafka, with its mix of research and imagination, arrives at an auspicious moment given the flurry of activity around Kafka’s life and work,” writes critic Cory Oldweiler.

Did not have 💯 agree with Rand Paul on my bingo card, but here we are.
MUST WATCH: Rand Paul finally snapped. He torched Trump’s tariff regime and nuked GOP silence in broad daylight.
This isn’t policy—it’s economic terrorism wrapped in a red hat.
House Republicans: your spine is on backorder. Get it together.

Trump was asked on Meet the Press if he's obligated to uphold the constitution.
His answer: "I don’t know. I’m not, I’m not a lawyer. I don’t know"
His answer: "I don’t know. I’m not, I’m not a lawyer. I don’t know"
Trump, asked if he has to 'uphold the Constitution,' says, 'I don't know'
Trump said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that he’s following lawyers’ advice as he tries to execute rapid deportations, arguing that giving immigrants due process is time-consuming.

The Rubber has officially hit the road
🚨BREAKING: It seems very clear that the Administration decided not to abide by the court's order. The question now is what will the judge do. Does he proceed with contempt or something short of that to defuse.
Upping the stakes is the fact that the AG and her senior staff signed this notice.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.
This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.
