NEW: June 16 is the 10th anniversary of Trump's escalator ride. In my OUR LAND newsletter, I report on the disinformation operation he's mounted for a decade, which has intensified this past week & could even lead to civil war. Please read this & pass it on.

Trump looks like an utter jackass. Marching soldiers like toys when a real war is going on. Attacking peaceful, productive Americans and dehumanizing them. Now an evil political assassination. He cannot and will not perform his job. Those who voted for him should forever hang their heads in shame.

โ€˜If I die, I want a loud deathโ€™: Gaza photojournalist killed by Israeli airstrike Fatima Hassouna, who had been documenting war in Gaza for 18 months and was subject of new documentary, killed along with 10 members of her family As a young photojournalist living in Gaza, Fatima Hassouna knew that death was always at her doorstep. As she spent the past 18 months of war documenting airstrikes, the demolition of her home, the endless displacement and the killing of 11 family members, all she demanded was that she not be allowed to go quietly. โ€œIf I die, I want a loud death,โ€ Hassouna wrote on social media. โ€œI donโ€™t want to be just breaking news, or a number in a group, I want a death that the world will hear, an impact that will remain through time, and a timeless image that cannot be buried by time or place.โ€ Continue reading...

This is how it's done.

A strong and principled response by WilmerHale to the illegal Executive Order attack - a form of attempted government intimidation declared unconstitutional by a federal judge.

This is how to guard the rule of law.

The world Russia and China see is not a world in which they are partners with the US.

The world Russia and China see is a world in which they have defeated the US.

How can people in the US not see this?

Trump is a traitor to the US.

The assumption that people who have no relationship to an experience are unbiased and those who do have a relationship are biased is a stupid prejudice. Often direct experience dispels established assumptions about rape, prison, etc..... Wrote about that a few years ago.

Just realized it's been probably two weeks since I've referred to Trump as a convicted felon or court-declared sexual assaulter. So much to remember!

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

Every sector of this country appears to be begging for fascism and tyranny and the insane concentration camps Donald Trump just announced for migrants. There appears to be not a single courageous strand of institutional DNA anywhere in the United States. Does that mean our democracy deserves to end?

Where are the defenders of the US as Elon and nameless private agents infiltrate US agencies, commandeer US servers, steal US data, seize US money, march US officials from US buildings? Who sallies forth from the FBI? The CIA? Congress? DoD? The media? This is a coupโ€”and America appears defenseless.

Nobody likes a braggart. Especially when they take credit for other peopleโ€™s accomplishments. And then blame people for their own blatant arrogant fuck ups.

Ken Martin is officially the new Chair of the Democratic National Committee. If you donโ€™t know him yet, youโ€™re about to. Because this isnโ€™t going to be politics as usual. I know Ken. Iโ€™ve worked with Ken. And I can tell you right nowโ€”this man is a fighter.

Boycotting the Super Bowl would be a good start to resistance. Millions of dollars would be lost and a statement that weโ€™re mad as hell and arenโ€™t going to take it anymore.
