Now that the NYT and The Atlantic are reporting on the panopticon DOGE is building, I'll re-up this thread

Publication day at @uminnpress.bsky.social ! The Rage of Replacement is about the dangerous politics that swirl around the "great replacement" narrative -- and the broader far right politics of fear over population change. Summary in thread. Feel free to spread the word!🧵

In a major win for democracy, a recent anti-voter executive order that threatened the freedom to vote for millions of Americans was halted in court.

We'll keep litigating this case to block the entirety of this illegal executive order.

ICYMI: New York's small donor public campaign financing program has been hailed as the nation’s best state law to deal with money in politics. But rumored changes in the state budget could make the program less effective.

Alright, I think people knew of the tariff pause and traded it beforehand.

You can see before Trump posted "buy" on Truth Social, traders opened $QQQ $TQQQ and $SPY calls

RIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS, someone opened $SPY 509 calls, expiring TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those calls are up 2100% in one hour.

NEW: In his official capacity, U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick called on Americans to buy stock in Elon Musk's Tesla during an appearance on Fox News.

This is a clear violation of well-established federal ethics rules. He must be held accountable.

The Alien Enemies Act proclamation is out. Obviously this is an illegal invocation of a wartime authority for peacetime immigration enforcement.

Many thoughts to come, but the first is that they messed up the drafting for what they're trying to accomplish.

The courts need to hold him in contempt! Ignoring a federal ruling is completely fucking lawless! Something must be done immediately and the courts don't necessarily need the US Marshals to make arrests. 🤷‍♀️

FFS. This again. Elon now using his amplifying machine to promote Rogan's effort to "just ask questions" about what is perhaps the most cherished doctrine of the white nationalist universe: that all other people can demand a nation of their own to preserve their identities -- so why not whites? 🧵

Right out of the gate they are detaining U.S. citizens and saying their “papers”are fake. It was always a lie.

@thiswasatriumph.bsky.social nice collection. Which would you keep if you had to choose? KMM or Superspeed? SM4 or Bluebird 18?

It’s time for Supreme Court term limits. Staggered 18-year terms would bring regular turnover to the bench. The result would be a Court that better reflects public values.

On July 18, 1937, nearly 1,000 uniformed American Nazis marched at a German American Bund gathering in New Jersey. With swastika banners flying, the march was a chilling reminder of the growing support for Nazi ideology in the United States during the years leading up to WWII.

In the column of information we've had that didn't sink in.
