Latest #cartoon. This sums up Trump's ongoing relationship with El Salvador's dictator, Niyab Bukele, and their open disdain for the U.S. judiciary and the American way of life.

Why didn’t the nation’s top 20 law firms sign a friend-of-the-court brief against Trump’s vindictive executive orders?
In unity, there’s strength to confront Trump.
In disunity, cowardice.
Some thoughts... robertreich.substack.com/p/in-unity-t...
If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him?
No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens.
Fascism is here.
15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment.
Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling.
We must overturn Citizens United.
Every day, it corrupts our politics and erodes our democracy.

Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries.
They're eventually paid by us at the check out line.
And they're regressive — taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.
SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit.
While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall.

It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.

It's time to start reminding people: LILIES ARE DEADLY FOR CATS. The leaves, the petals, the stem, even drinking a bit of vase water or licking a few grains of pollen from their fur can cause fatal kidney failure. ⚠️ www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

#Trump is eyeing a third term, in violation of the #22ndAmendment. He hinted at "methods" he could use to subvert the Constitution and hold onto power. You should be very concerned right now.
Oh, and #fascism scholars are fleeing to Canada right now.

Latest #cartoon. The House speaker is telling GOP members of Congress to stop holding in-person town halls. They're shifting to teleconference calls, in order to screen out angry constituents and control the narrative about the reaction to #DOGE and the dismantling of government.

Latest cartoon about the frightening lack of due process in #DonaldTrump's decision to deport Venezuelans in the United States to a notorious Salvadoran prison. Their families and attorneys are coming forward with evidence that some of these people were innocent.

a tabby and white cat is pictured sitting on her haunches, looking directly at the camera. Behind her is her is the blue and gold Ukrainian flag.
Have courage
Stand up to bullies
Be like President Zelenskyy
I'm struggling to get over what we saw today.
The amount of gaslighting, cruelty, ignorance, abject cowardice, arrogance, indifference to human life, and deceit we saw from Trump and Vance...we saw behavior we associate with enemies of the United States inside the Oval Office.
That's traumatizing.

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Latest #politicalcartoon. It was extraordinary—and appalling—to see the #Trump administration’s #UN delegation vote this week with Russia, North Korea, and other despotic countries on anti-Ukraine resolutions. The U.S. government is abandoning its European allies in favor of its enemies. #cartoon
