Demolishing our East Wing, holding SNAP hostage, shutting down the government, ICE thuggery, AI planes dropping Trump feces on No Kings protesters, illegal tariffs, lying about food and gas prices, revenge indictments, and theft aren't as popular as Trump thinks. Gloat with me!

But the shutdown

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down.

All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown.

So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

We Are Not Happy But We Are Not Surprised I watched the entire Ezra Klein/Ta-Nehisi Coates Conversation so you don't have to. But it's definitely worth the watch.

"And Klein just. Didn’t. Get. It. His argument was, 'But we have to win.' And I’m like, 'Who the fuck is we, Ezra?' Because I’m not now and will never be on the side that negotiates away basic human rights. Even if that means I’m in a party of one." michaelianblack.substack.com/p/we-are-not...

ICE agents assault amNewYork reporter at Federal Plaza immigration court; another journalist seriously injured after shove | amNewYork ICE agents assaulted amNewYork's own Dean Moses, and allegedly attacked another journalist, on Tuesday morning as they were documenting the ongoing arrests of

Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband.

Today they attacked two journalists.

We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.

Since the administration's ICE agents are poorly trained ex-militia extremist bullies, if they want to create a war zone, I expect they'll be hiring the TigerSwan mercenaries to act as agent provocateurs.

This was always the goal and don’t forget that this happened because of the Democrats/Joe Biden. TikTok was in zero danger of being banned and the ban was non existent until Biden/Dems worked w Gallagher to revive it because people were using the app to speak out about Israel’s genocide.

Opinion | Trump’s Slavish Stupidity The president could learn a lesson from the sisters of Nativity.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

β€œTrump whitewashing slavery is the ultimate act of white privilege from a nepo baby who is the apotheosis of white privilege,” our columnist Maureen Dowd writes.

He doesn't believe in the right to protest whatsoever. He just said yesterday that he wants any force under his command to do "whatever the hell it wants" in response to a protest. We won't have freedom of assembly a year from now.

Every alarm nationwide should be going off now.

You'd think Trump would at least try to make some money out of all this tech that he doesn't want and sell it to the EU...

"The US is on track to have the largest one-year drop in murder ever recorded for the third straight year in 2025."

- NYC, Philly, San Francisco, Baltimore, Detroit, etc, had the lowest murder rate since the 60s
- Violent crime is down 11% vs last year, property crime down 12%
