Every social theory undergirding Trumpism has been broken on the steel of Minnesotan resolve. The multiracial community in Minneapolis was supposed to shatter. It did not. It held until Bovino was forced out of the Twin Cities with his long coat between his legs. The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Exclusive: US aid cuts leave food for millions mouldering in storage These food rations could feed over a million people for three months, or the entire population of Gaza for a month and a half, according to a Reuters analysis.

Food for millions wasted, children left to go hungry, and America’s reputation permanently damaged.

Joe, my brother and my friend

You’ve led with strength and heart through every storm. Now we stand with you. Praying for healing, peace, and continued courage. You are not alone.
With love and respect,

'US tells Russia crimes it commits are acceptable' — What recognition of Russia's occupation of Crimea would mean for Ukrainians, Crimean Tatars The U.S. is reportedly considering officially recognizing Russian control over occupied Crimea as part of a potential peace agreement — a territorial concession that would kill the existing world orde...

The Kyiv Independent asked Ukrainians and Crimean Tatars to share their stories about Crimea and what would it mean for them if the U.S. would acknowledge and support Russia's annexation of their homeland.

Wow.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Many are asking what should we do now?
“We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’”

Thank you Marc. I don't know what we'd do without you (and our other legal warriors) # MadRespect 🫡 🇺🇸

My Open Letter to Elon Musk From Marc | Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” This is my response.

I am the great-grandson of a man who led his family out of the shtetl to a strange land in search of a better life. I am the grandson of the three-year-old boy on that journey. As you know, my name is Marc, but my Hebrew name is Elhanan—after the warrior in David’s army who slew a powerful giant.

This is supremely fucked up. I mean, I read about this earlier, but to see it in writing is devastating.

“Not surprised. Disgusted.”: Capt. Sully Sullenberger responds to Donald Trump’s attempt to blame the D.C. plane crash on DEI

Sen. Warnock: 'We gotta have a handful of Republicans who understand that they work for the people of America and not for someone who wants to be a king. That's the moral decision for my colleagues on the other side of the aisle. I pray to God that they find the backbone to make the right decision.'

I voted for VP Kamala Harris and Governor Walz.

It felt nice saying that.

Tragic. But this is just the first of so many stories.

The Commander in Chief is politicizing the deaths of not only 67 lives, but three Servicemembers.

His hatred for those who serve knows no bounds. His disdain for women knows no limits. His empathy for those left behind is nonexistent.

Absolutely DISGRACEFUL.

THIS is how you communicate, folks

Criminal records of Jan. 6 rioters pardoned by Trump include rape, domestic violence Dozens of Jan. 6 defendants who received pardons from President Trump had past criminal convictions for charges including rape, manslaughter, domestic violence and drug trafficking.

NPR has identified dozens of Jan. 6 defendants with prior convictions or pending charges for crimes including rape, sexual abuse of a minor, domestic violence, manslaughter, production of child sexual abuse material and drug trafficking.

Very fine people indeed.🙄

Letz go,!! 🙏🏾

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week.

Don’t let him.
