A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

Pentagon to cut ties with Ivy League and other top universities, Hegseth says Hegseth accused Columbia, Yale, Brown and other universities of being "breeding grounds of toxic indoctrination.”

The other thing that drives me batsh*t crazy about this is the blatant pull-up-the-ladder-after-me part of 👇. You went to Princeton & Harvard, man. Surely, if they were good enough for you, the guy who passed up West Point for the Ivy League, they’re good enough for everyone else in the military.

Trump and Republicans are:

-Trying to ram through a bill that would disenfranchise millions of voters
-Considering an EO that would allow Trump to take over elections
-Proposing to station ICE agents at polling places

They’re trying to rig their way to victory. We won’t let them.

Great piece by @ewong.bsky.social puncturing the myth of Trump's "isolationism" and explaining how his actual approach is "an embrace, and even a celebration, of Western imperial histories."

#OtD 27 Feb 1973 armed Native American activists occupied Wounded Knee, South Dakota, in protest at corruption and US treaty breaches with Native Americans. Despite state violence and killings they held out for 71 days and galvanised huge support stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9898...

JUST IN: A federal judge says the Trump administration has been “terrorizing” refugees — violating the promise America made to them when they fled persecution at home — by locking them up illegally. He blocked the policy for those in MN storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Not once does the phrase "in a move likely to anger China" appears!

@gbrockell.bsky.social knows what she is doing, with these ongoing reports on ICE deportation flights. (And the companies that profit from them but try to keep out of the news.) I have subscribed to her site. gillianbrockell.ghost.io

oops. White nationalism is a helluva drug.

Their paths crossed at #GreenIsland, a #Taiwanese penal colony where thought prisoners grew their own food to supplement supplies ferried by boat. He admired her beauty and tenacity. She recognized his literati talents and fortitude. This is their story.
