The sad fact is this lawless pronouncement by Trump is damn-near a quote from the democracy-busting presidential immunity ruling from a compromised Sup Ct.
This is PRECISELY why Justice Sotomayor (joined by Justices Kagan & Ketanji Brown Jackson) said, “With fear for our democracy, I dissent.”

75% of white students who got legacy admission to Harvard were NOT qualified based on merit. SCOTUS instead repealed Affirmative Action—now Harvard Law's Black enrollment has dropped 52%

Affirmative Action Repeal & Rising White Supremacy
The latest Harvard data is a daunting reminder that racist policies are not only systemic in our higher education systems—they're getting worse

MAGA tech bros are complaining Americans aren't educated enough—meanwhile oppose canceling exploitative student debt, do nothing about high university tuition, want to help abolish the Department of Education, and support the hundreds of book bans across GOP run states.
Yeah, good plan.

Republicans are so accustomed to whining from the minority that when they’re actually in the majority and still can’t manage to pass a bill, their automatic reflex is to blame the Democrats.
Republicans wanted the majority. They got it. Learn how to fucking govern.

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.
Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

There is no place in the government with more power to implement Project 2025 than the Office of Management and Budget.

“An emergency room nurse contacted police in 2017 after treating a woman who said that while drinking with colleagues after a political gathering several nights earlier she may have been drugged and was then sexually assaulted by a man she later identified as Pete Hegseth”
Police records reveal new details about sexual assault allegation against Pete Hegseth
The incident has roiled Trump’s transition team since the former president announced Hegseth as his nominee for defense secretary.

BOTH of Trump's AG nominees are perfect examples of the disgusting corruption of our two systems of justice:
Matt Gaetz was nearly indicted for underage sex trafficking - but DOJ let him off the hook
Pam Bondi nearly prosecuted Trump University - but let them off the hook

If House Republicans really wanted to protect women, they'd release the Ethics Committee report on Matt Gaetz' alleged sex trafficking - not try to ban their colleagues from using the bathroom. Stop the bigotry and release the report.

Trump won by 1.68%. Two ways to look at this: 1/ Damn, that was close and America is divided. Or more realistically 2/ Half this country is so morally bankrupt, stupid and delusional that they gave the country to a spoiled rich kid who has never ever walked a singular day in their shoes.

Just absorbing the fact that the first order of business in the new QAnon-inflected MAGA Republican era is to demand that Congress bury its report on sex trafficking and drug allegations against a Republican member of Congress who they're trying to promote to higher office.
