Just now. Anyone else remember when a nice spring/summer storm would go through, and when the lightning stopped, you could go walk in the rain? We don’t get that anymore. We get storm bursts and torrential rain and hail and tornadoes. Global warming? I think yes.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Fascism is when a leader uses the power of the state to control or coerce private institutions—like Trump has tried to do with universities and private companies such as Apple. His attempts to dictate what schools can teach or how businesses should operate are textbook authoritarianism. Harvard

BREAKING: As markets open today, the dollar is crashing, investors are fleeing the US, and the White House still has nothing resembling an economic plan.

When I think of Trump I'm reminded of Sun Tzu's quote, "an evil man will burn his own nation to the ground to rule over the ashes."

It appears that the guy who tried to burn down Gov. Shapiro’s house on Passover was – predictably – a MAGA white supremacist.
The normalization of political violence on the right is terrifying.

Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.
