Trump Officials Blame Mistake for Setting Off Confrontation With Harvard
An official on the administration’s antisemitism task force told the university that a letter of demands had been sent without authorization.
So the White House story is now:
“We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.”
The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

You forgot the giant tax cut for the rich that was passed, that will blow out the deficit by trillions. Even if they dismantled all social services & cut all programs, it would barely make a dent in the new deficit. It's perverse politicians funnel money you the rich & expect the poor to pay taxes.

Funny how there’s silence and no dire warnings of blackouts when a relatively new coal fired power station goes offline due to a major failure

This week a senior LNP member repeated a Trump slogan - & has been seen in a MAGA hat
Numerous Liberal Party members are preferencing an extreme christian party & One Nation
But - there is little to no media focus on this.
We are badly let down by the 4th estate #auspol

America, as an entity, has become a gangrenous mass. Subverting decency, subverting Christianity, subverting democracy, subverting the constitution, subverting the rule of law, just so a hateful minority can get their rocks off and the elite can grab power. Treat the gangrene or die.

I wonder how the Supreme Court feels about granting Donald Trump immunity for official acts now that one of those official acts is telling the Supreme Court to shove their ruling and fuck the fuck off.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but if you have to TASER your constituents in order to hold a town hall, you might be a fascist.

A tweet by Sarah Longwell (@SarahLongwell25
) reads: "He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. Don’t you see what’s happening here?"
I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

That human-shaped, piece of toxic biofilm, triggers my slapping reflex so strongly, that I can feel the impact of hand on face, and hear that satisfying sound IN MY SOUL.

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US.
When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

Every word uttered by Temu Trump continues to increase my rage. He is desperate to whore himself out to the highest bidder like the original orange peril...but he forgets that Aussies have mandatory voting and preferential voting. His policies will bury him. Very few will put him first or second.

You know who should lose their tax exempt status and be taxed as political entities for pushing politics loooooooooong before Harvard? Christian Nationalist megachurches that supported Trump and his current brand of fascism.

Trump and the Republican Party had no problem picking up the phone and asking Romania to return their dear friend and child rapist, Andrew Tate, but want us to believe they can’t do anything about Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

The rise of fascism always follows the same course. It could be considered monotonous in its predictability, if the outcomes of these actions/policies weren't so horrific.
