It was always performative outrage.

I don't expect any of our major media outlets to acknowledge this outright, but this is the thing: These aren't 'steep' tariffs, these are _insane_ tariffs. These are 'nobody in the White House understands decimal points' numbers. It speaks to total economic illiteracy _throughout the White House_.

X post by Timothy Snyder (@TimothyD ...), posted 6 hours ago. The post reads, "The people Attorney General Bondi is calling 'terrorists' have had no trial and no chance to defend them. We do not know they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril."

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

Thank you to my Representative in Congress @keating.house.gov for taking a stand and sending a message.

Since Trump has claimed Elon doesn’t run DOGE, we wanted to make sure you know who is running our government. This list has been updated with 15 names.

been thinking a lot about this quote lately

USAID security officials on leave after refusing access to Musk allies Billionaire and Trump ally Elon Musk has been denigrating USAID, which is the world’s largest provider of food assistance.

Breaking news: The White House has removed two top security officials at the U.S. Agency for International Development, the world’s largest provider of food assistance, after they refused to let representatives of Elon Musk access restricted spaces.

Opinion | Don’t Believe Him (Gift Article) Look closely at the first two weeks of Donald Trump’s second term and you’ll see something very different than what he wants you to see.

Everybody should read this. Talk about coups and the like is not helping, and in fact may give Trump what he wants. What does help is when you laugh at the foolishness of this strategy. He's setting himself up for a reckoning when things fall apart.

Dear World, (An Apology From Decent Americans) Dear World,

Dear Leaders of the Free World,

Fight him at every turn.
Make his life miserable.
Expose his ignorance and sociopathy.
Oppose and condemn and marginalize him.
The decent people of this nation are not with him.

We stand with you.

“When Trump was asked about Capitol attackers who assaulted police officers he said that ‘they had no choice’”.

Incredible writing. Horrifying story.

Two years ago today we were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for protecting The US Capitol on January 6th 2021. Almost 4 years later the efforts to downplay, whitewash and minimize what happened appear to be succeeding. I won't ever stop standing up to them.

Got the same letter last week for my chronic migraine med - been on it for many years and it’s the only thing that has allowed me to have fewer than 10 migraines per month. But yeah, guess that doesn’t matter.

It is interesting that this observation about the “coarsening of society” wasn’t also highlighted by MSM when men were chanting and wearing t-shirts saying “Your body, my choice” just over a month ago.
