Music and books. Both give me anxiety.

Mainstream media is doing a woefully inadequate job of highlighting the horrors ICE is committing across the USA. My hunch is that is by design.

Having exausted all other options โ€” having seen all other defenses fail โ€” all our hopes for being rescued from one of the most deranged and stupid national leaders in history now rest with the highest and final authority in this country: the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to โ€œthe leftโ€ and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Killing off our research facilities and talent pipelines is perhaps the biggest, dumbest self-own in American history.

A 10-year-old U.S. citizen girl recovering from brain cancer, was detained at an immigration checkpoint while heading to an emergency medical checkup and promptly deported. Thanks to Trump and Musk.

MORE OF THIS. Thank you @billkeating.bsky.social. This is the energy we want from Democratic leaders right now. Please stop with the offensively obtuse compliance to "decorum" when engaging these ghouls who only know cowardice and cruelty.

Hey, you know that Mahmoud Khalil is still in custody after being illegally detained in what is a gross violation of our country's First Amendment rights....right? I want to be sure you know that because I haven't seen you say anything about it.

USDA halts more than $100M in funding for University of Maine System programs The move temporarily pauses USDA funding for Maine's university system after President Donald Trump threatened to cut off the state over Maine's decision to allow transgender athletes to compete in sp...

I'm appalled by the USDA's decision to pause funding to the University of Maine System.

This will hurt our farmers, halt critical research, and impact students throughout Maine.

Once again, our state is being targeted for retributionโ€”all because our officials are standing up for the rule of law.

Noam Chomsky: "Social Security is actually in pretty good shape despite what everybody screams about. But if you can defund it, it won't be in good shape.[...]Thatโ€™s the standard technique of privatization: defund, make sure things donโ€™t work, people get angry, you hand it over to private capital."

Have to say, Man Unitedโ€™s new stadium plans look impossibly far-fetched. As if theyโ€™re capable of beating anyone 3-0

@markwarner.bsky.social, Mahmoud Khalil, a legal resident, was illegally detained and is currently disappeared. It's a clear violation of our 1st Amendment rights. Join with your colleagues and speak out against this now!

Right now there is clear, overwhelming opposition to Mahmoud Khalilโ€™s abduction across the moderate, liberal, progressive & left spectrum. This kind of loud unity is what authoritarians are afraid of. To keep it up we need every institution & public leader to join the chorus.

MASSIVE protest marching through Manhattan right now against the ICE arrest of Mahmoud Khalil.

Endless stream of people chanting โ€œNo cops, no KKK, no fascist USA.โ€ Easily a thousand people. Zero NYPD presence.
