Movement of Ideas & People is the Thread that Binds Human History. I want to share books & research that showcase it. I also believe Communists/Socialists have a lot in common with Liberals/Progressives. Neo-liberalism ≠ Liberalism.

"The fact that no one is questioning his mental acuity or fitness to serve is beyond wild to me, right?" said Representative Jasmine Crockett on MSNBC. She is 100% correct.

Sending up gratitude for the judges AND, more importantly, the lawyers who are willing to fight for the rule of law.
As of Friday, there have been 46 cases in which federal judges have blocked Trump policies.
The rulings in those cases have come from 39 different judges appointed by 5 different presidents (of both parties) to 11 different district courts across 7 different circuits.
Maybe it's not the judges?

The Confederacy & Segregation came before Fascism & Nazism. In fact, Nazis rejected incorporating a few Jim Crow laws because they thought it was harsh.

this is why i say it's a form of hegemonic suicide. america had the entire postwar consensus built around it and decided liberal internationalism was woke
NATO leaders now speak Gaullism with an accent. Atlanticism is their first language. I do not think that will be the case 15-20 years from now.

President Trump has raised the possibility that he could relax steep upcoming tariffs on China in exchange for the country’s support on a deal to sell TikTok to a new owner supported by the U.S.
Trump Floats Chinese Tariff Cuts in Exchange for TikTok Deal
The social media app could shut down on April 5 unless it is sold to a new non-Chinese owner. Mr. Trump issued an order delaying the enforcement of a federal ban, and told reporters he could extend th...

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.

America chose the Jim Crow Confederate over the daughter of a Civil Rights Activist who herself fought for our rights & equality going all to 2008 Great Depression Crash as California Attorney Journal. May her tribe grow.
America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here.
