Please watch and share. It can be easy to get a little lost in the details, but the ENTIRE THING they're doing is absolutely built on a foundation of lies and flagrantly illegal.

In a great show of resistance, head coach of NBA’s Golden State Warriors, Steve Kerr, wore a Harvard Basketball t-shirt after a game the other night. Kerr made it clear: β€œYes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Trump administration sues Maine over participation of transgender athletes in girls sports The Trump administration is suing Maine’s education department for not complying with its push to ban transgender athletes in girls and women's sports.

Maine Gov. Janet Mills:

"This matter has never been about school sports or the protection of women and girls, as has been claimed, it's about states rights and defending the rule of law against a federal government bent on imposing its will, instead of upholding the law"

The possibility of abduction by a sovereign and imprisonment abroad is one criterion that separates democracies from dictatorships.

The Declaration of Independence called the British king tyrannical for transporting Americans, β€œbeyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offenses.”

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prisonβ€”accused of no crime, with no trialβ€”they can do it to anyone.

Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Jawdropping.

You would expect this in a dictatorship, not the United States.

This country is unrecognizable.

Why is Trump’s Commerce secretary urging the public to buy Tesla stock? Howard Lutnick told a national television audience to buy a specific stock tied to the sitting president’s top campaign donor.

"If Lutnick's Democratic predecessor, Gina Raimondo, took such a step -- urging Americans to buy stock in a company led by Joe Biden’s top campaign contributor -- it seems likely that more than a few congressional Republicans would call for her resignation..."

This is just the beginning. It's what dictators do. They're going to contract the economy so people are only focused on basic needs and will be compliant and won't protest. I've been to enough countries to see this play out. If our military doesn't intervene, we will become a fullfledge dictatorship

Hey DOGE bros - found some of that wasteful spending you were looking for.
How many gov employees could have kept working and feeding their families with the estimated $2.5M this stunt cost?

I just voted NO on RFK Jr. to lead HHS. None of his empty promises could undo the harm his past statements have already had on people’s health. He’s a flip-flopper, a conspiracy peddler, and a danger to our country.

He’s driven by self-interest, not by protecting Americans.

What I don't see is the big thank you to Israel anywhere in the nyt. It amazes me that if it wasn't for Israel's destruction of Hezbollah and the other terrorist groups in Syria, this never would have come to be. Not that the nyt would ever acknowledge this or make this connection

This is all the Russians have been able to take in almost a year, at the cost of about 1500 men A DAY.

I understand that there are thousands of Russian young men who have gotten out of Russia or were in other countries when the war began and have no plans on returning. The US should give asylum for all Russian males ages 18-27 who want US citizenship. North Koreans alone cannot do it
