Trump Hit Brazil With Punitive Tariffs for Prosecuting His Ally But Promised Argentina a $20 Billion Taxpayer Bailout to Help His Other Pal Win Election: An Executive Watch Roundup Our early-October selection of the president's latest and greatest assaults on the rule of law

The level of corruption and frequency of illicit actions emanating from this White House continues to amaze.

It's impossible to read through @tracinski.bsky.social's latest roundup for @theunpopulist.net and think that any of this is within a tolerable range of normal politics.

Cowards looking to instigate violence.

New Class Action Lawsuit Challenges Widespread Denial of Due Process in Immigration Courts The ACLU of Massachusetts filed a class action lawsuit in federal court to challenge the widespread denial of bond hearings to people detained by ICE.

NEW: We filed a class action lawsuit to challenge the widespread denial of bond hearings to people detained by ICE in New England.

All people in the United States are entitled to due process — no matter what the Trump administration says.

The gaslighting on the signature is maybe their most embarrassing thing yet. Just an absolute disregard for the truth, or dignity. @reptimburchett

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional

4 dead soldiers returning home, Tennessee looking like a war zone, and trillions in value lost while the fat guy takes the day off to golf and host a million dollar dinner.

She was MAGA before MAGA was cool.

Wrote homophobic writings as an undergraduate. Stated she held no sympathy for AIDS patients because they were "degenerates". Compared abortion to the Holocaust and slavery. Feminists as "angry, militant, man-hating lesbians who abhor the traditional family". Agreed women play a role in date rape".

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

It’s insane to think that the Trump administration was more welcoming this week to the Tate brothers than to the President of Ukraine.

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

That's just silly. There isn't a Democrat in the White House.

The Attack on Trans Rights Won’t End There Once legal rights begin to fall, they fall for everyone.

The campaign against trans rights is also about stripping away everyone’s protections against discrimination, reviving, as Douglass put it “the moral blindness” of those who “persuade themselves that they are safe, though the rights of others may be struck down.”

The thing about “patriotic education” is that if you have to lie about America to love it then you probably don’t really love it. Ultimately their objection to the flawed universalism expressed in the declaration is the idea that the flaws were bad or that the universalism should be realized.

Read the whole thread. What kind of person gets angry at raising funds to feed children?

Apparently, Martin Luther King Day is a DEI holiday.

These mfers tried this once in 2017 and they are trying again. This is disastrous for higher education and graduate students in this country. I can't believe they want to increase the tax burden of students who make below federal poverty line to fund for tax cuts for the rich. @costasamaras.com
