My dad was a successful businessman for decades who built a life for himself after serving in Vietnam. He always advocated for paying *more* in taxes because he was grateful to have what he did and saw it as a honor to be able to give back to his country and to those who needed it more. I miss him ♥️

The original Notice to Appear (the immigration court version of an indictment) against Mahmoud Khalil was a complete mess; a sloppy disaster with multiple outright errors and alleging only the charge of "Rubio says you have to leave"
Now ICE has filed new charges, alleging immigration fraud. 🧵

There is absolutely no way Greenland should let in a representative of an overtly hostile nation, in fact the wife of someone explicitly threatening to “take” it. Turn her plane back.

It's just so weird that the entire federal government is working so hard to protect the interests of one extremely wealthy freak

I feel confident in predicting history will judge this decade or so as the absolutely stupidest time in American history.
Honestly our kids and grandkids will read about this time and be shocked that adults existed.

I think this is really vital to convey to non-news-junkies. Not only is DOGE not making anything more efficient, nothing they’re doing even makes sense as an ATTEMPT to make anything more efficient. That is the marketing; it’s not the actual function.
Strange how this sounds like a parody of the former Soviet Union.

This is very good. The work is to turn this collective sensibility into solidarity.
It’s been a bad week for institutional resistance to Trump. But that doesn’t mean opposition to Trump is waning. Quite the opposite. danieldrezner.substack.com/p/the-plural...
The Pluralistic Ignorance of the Trump Opposition
Institutions are failing to stand up for their principles. That does not mean Americans as a whole are not resisting what is happening.

A vast conspiracy. Enemies everywhere. Un-American forces have overtaken “every last institution” and especially the state. Radical counter-measures urgently needed.
It is the permission structure that governs rightwing politics and fuels the desire for “counter-revolution” on the Trumpist Right.

This is the most openly corrupt act by a sitting President in the history of America. It is now 4.40 PM - and Politico, WaPo and NYT are simply refusing to cover it. NYT wrote 35 articles speculating on the POSSIBLE corruption of Clinton Foundation. Which was never found.
This is so surreally corrupt it’s hard to even grasp. US media is incapable of processing it - directly using the White House to promote a meme coin with hidden ownership structure.
