Every authoritarian who successfully destroyed judicial independence did so because civil society failed to unite in time. The key difference? Whether people mobilized.

NEW: Judge Boasberg DENIES Trump’s motion to vacate his TRO in the Alien Enemies Act case. Since the plaintiffs are likely to succeed on the merits because they deserve due process, the TRO is appropriate. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This morning the White House is attacking Judge Boasberg as a "Democrat activist," which is odd, since he's a registered Republican.
Leavitt: This judge is a Democrat activist. He was appointed by Barack Obama
Reporter: He was originally appointed by George W. Bush and elevated by Obama.

Not hypothetical anymore

Judge blocks Trump admin from deporting 5 Venezuelans amid plans to invoke Alien Enemies Act A federal judge on Saturday preemptively blocked the Trump administration's reported efforts to quickly deport five Venezuelan nationals under the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) of 1798. The move from U.S. District Judge James Boasberg came just a few hours…

Everything Musk oversees stays together for a while, but falls apart over time: Cybertrucks, SpaceX rockets, Twitter... It's only a matter of time before we see a rapid unscheduled disassembly of the Trump regime. We just have to keep pulling back the facade until it falls apart, too.

Remember: Wealth can’t be separated from power. Power begets wealth and wealth begets power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging our markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of billionaires.

Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are hitting the road this coming week for Sanders's 'Fighting Oligarchy' tour, which is focused on "the takeover of the national government by billionaires and large corporations."

Events will take place in Nevada, Arizona, and Colorado.

March 13, 2025:

Donald Trump just congratulated Chuck Schumer on his decision to vote YES on the Republican CR.

@schumer.senate.gov , you are on the wrong side!

With NATO’s Secretary General sitting next to him, Trump said about annexing Greenland: “I think it will happen.”

There is no bottom for this very stupid man.

These Are the 10 DOGE Operatives Inside the Social Security Administration The team working at the Social Security Administration appears to be among the largest DOGE units deployed to any government agency.

I’m not an economist but this seems bad

Opinion | DOGE says it’s saving $100 billion. It’s about to lose a lot more. Cuts to the IRS will backfire by giving tax evaders a free pass.

"the plan to shrink IRS staff by up to 50% would — very conservatively — lead to a $400 billion increase in uncollected taxes over the next decade. It could easily mean more than $2 trillion in losses..."

We need more honesty and courage like this to break the spell—urgently.

“I’m going to say this at risk of my job,” reporter Steve Liesman said on CNBC. “But what President Trump is doing is insane. It is absolutely insane. It is about the eighth reason we’ve had for the tariffs.”

If they are “confused” then it’s time to rethink the intellectual soundness of the nation’s top business leaders.

I don’t think they’re confused.

Republicans snuck a provision into the rule for the CR that would preemptively surrender congressional authority to block tariffs.

When House Republicans vote for this rule today, they will also be voting to support Trump's tariffs and all the resulting damage to the US economy

oh hell yeah
