Nearly everything Trump is doing now was laid out in my 2020 bestseller HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT, which apparently was indeed hiding in plain sight. The book has a transcript of Trump explaining his plan in 2014. It also lays out the current plans of his partners. All of this could have been prevented.

Lawyer for U-M protester detained at airport after spring break trip with family Dearborn lawyer says feds tried to seize his cellphone at Detroit Metro Airport as he returned from spring break trip with his family.

“While in the interrogation room, Makled said, a man in plain clothes entered and began speaking to him. He said he recalls the man telling him: ‘We know you're a lawyer. We know you take on big cases.’”

What 'Weird' Reveals About the Democrats' Messaging Crisis There are no magic words. But moral attacks your base loves are the core of a winning strategy.

What can the rise of "WEIRD" and its quick murder at the hands of consultants teach us about the Democrats' messaging crisis?

For @gilduran.com and @george-lakoff.com's @theframelab.bsky.social, I looked at why elected Democrats fear pleasing their base.

The two most powerful Republican politicians in America - the president and co-president of the United States - are publicly praising and defending and excusing the crimes of a far-right foreign politician who leads a party founded by a Holocaust-denying neo-Nazi.

We are in a very, very dark place.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

Murky dolphin deaths at Florida theme park prompt law enforcement raid State investigation under way at Gulf World after four dolphins have mysteriously died in past six months

Never go to a dolphin or whale show. “Dolphins are charismatic and social beings who deserve more than a lifetime in unnatural and cruel conditions. Entertaining tourists is not a justification for their suffering.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Well, they lied. Obviously.

This seems less than ideal. #PhonyStark

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

Since Trump has claimed Elon doesn’t run DOGE, we wanted to make sure you know who is running our government. This list has been updated with 15 names.

CDC employee shares his story as more than 150 rally in support of fired workers Ryan Sloane spent a career in journalism before pivoting toward public relations.

Ryan Sloane, who has spent a career in communications, was not afraid to give his name or say that he was weighing his legal options. He cursed with righteous anger during his interview with Decaturish and said his firing was done in a “chicken s*** way,” via email.
