UK: Prince Andrew arrested.
South Korea: Former President Yoon sentenced for life.
Brazil: Former President Bolsonaro serving a 27-year sentence.
USA: President Trump demands $10 billion payout from taxpayers.
Fun discovery: on an apples-to-apples basis, Trump's tariff taxes are larger than the tax increases in the House-passed version of Build Back Better in 2021.
Of course, the distribution of Biden's tax hikes on corporations and millionaires are different from Trump's tariffs.

Good for him.
Trump’s endless empowerment of federal immigration agents has resulted in yet another senseless killing. This brutal crackdown has to end.
I cannot and will not vote to fund DHS while this administration continues these violent federal takeovers of our cities.
The real “domestic terrorists” are in the White House.
The victim, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, was reportedly a law abiding US citizen & an ICU nurse at the VA. He was licensed to carry a firearm.
Trump & Miller are responsible for his killing & are now lying to the American people.
I just checked—it turns out that Art. II, Sec. 1 of the Constitution of the United States does *not* say "The executive Power shall be vested in a bunch of sociopaths who think they can do whatever the fuck they want and make shit up as they go along."
When it comes to stock market performance, just like Davos, Trump is a loser. Only India did worse last year, Canada's market rose more than twice as much deanbaker22.substack.com/p/when-it-co...
Somewhere in the D.C. suburbs, John Roberts is probably watching news reports from Minnesota and thinking, "you know, what we really need to do is give this man and his confederates *even more* unchecked power to act with impunity"
Murderers and their cheerleaders. A Nuremberg reckoning better come for them all.
Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now
This was murder. Pretti did not initiate the confrontation. He didn’t strike them. He didn’t brandish his gun. They tackled him, beat him, disarmed him, and shot him.
this is all to say that should democrats win the house and senate this november, they should hold similarly dramatic — which is to say televised and highly publicized — hearings on the conduct of ICE and CBP, with testimony from victims. we want as much of *this* as possible in the record. (3/?)
Defund. Abolish. Prosecute.
ICE is lawless and destructive.
semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003
when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out
“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

That's some Gold Standard Science right there. OMG
Awesome
@govwesmoore.bsky.social I see the announcement protecting access to COVID boosters and other vaccines. Have you joined the Northeast Collaborative as well? Asking as a constituent....

With the $45 million being spent on the president's parade here’s what that money could do for veterans instead:
House 3k veterans for an entire year in transitional housing
Provide full PTSD treatment for 3.75k veterans for a year
Deliver job training to 9k veterans through 12-week programs
The lesson people infuriatingly never seem to master is that there is no creating a police state just for other people. If you create a police state with no due process for immigrants or accused criminals, then that's the system you've created for yourself.
Go Blue! Yay Julie
