Last July, Project 2025's Kevin Roberts said “the second American Revolution ... will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.”
It was a declaration of war against the American people, a demand for our surrender. Some cowards in law, academia and business have submitted. Many of us never will.

Under Trump, ICE has become a weapon. Protesters are arrested. Immigrants are disappeared. Kilmar wasn't a threat, he was a legal resident who fit a profile. Mahmoud wasn't silenced for violence-he was targeted. This is an American Gestapo. (1/3) #FreeKilmar #DefendDueProcess #BringThemBack

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year.

Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot. The reason the descent into a police state has been so rapid is because the infrastructure was already there. It’s been there since 9/11.

Murphy: Trump Is Dismantling Our Democracy. We Must Come Together And Act Before It’s Too Late. WASHINGTON—U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on Thursday spoke on the U.S. Senate floor to sound the alarm about Trump’s coordinated effort to dismantle the pillars of American democracy. Murphy warned attacks on journalists, universities, lawyers, and the business community are eroding the institutions that hold leaders accountable—paving the way for a fake democracy where elections still happen, but only one side ever wins.

Agreed. Powerful. Also Chris Murphy lays out how our democracy is dying. Alarming. Democrats are not tiptoeing around anymore.

Here's the reality: they've backed themselves into a corner. If they bring him home there will be hell to pay. It's clear that they believe that the lesser hell is not bringing him home. So we need to make that hell the worse hell. Start calling and screaming at all of your representatives now! 1/2

From the great David Brooks of The New York Times, in the May volume of The Atlantic. Everyone should read every word of this historic piece. It's worth the price of a subscription to The Atlantic, without question the most courageous magazine in America today.

Hey "Missouri Right to Life," which is it, you just want to control women, or you don't care if people die?

How is forcing a raped person to report, or be forced to give birth, no matter how she became pregnant, "Pro-life?"

Say NO to gov control of your reproductive health care.

And don't forget ignoring the return of 4 dead Army soldiers from Lithuania. The people of Lithuania showed more respect for US dead soldiers, than their own president ever has. I remember a 💩 ton of bitchin’ whiney ass people on the right throwing a tantrum because Biden glanced at his watch.

'So many children died': Russian attack on Kryvy Rih kills 20

Last night I wrote about Abrego Garcia’s case. Today, SCOTUS confirmed it’s true. Even though their stay is just temporary, he remains in cruel & unusual conditions in a foreign prison with no recourse. It could happen to any of us. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...

Trump is ABUSING HIS POWER to EXTORT compliance, political favors, or payoffs through the arbitrary and capricious application of laws and policies.

This pointless trade war fits the pattern of Trump abusing his power.

On the evening of April 8, our teams in Al Mawasi clinic, southern #Gaza, received an influx of nine people after a strike hit 300 metres away from the facility. Two were dead on arrival, including a two-year-old boy, the seven others were wounded.

Sending anyone from this country to a foreign gulag, particularly without a court hearing, should rightfully end a presidency. Full stop.

If you haven’t seen this, you need to!

Trump is short-selling America—deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them.

Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm.
Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

38% of people living in Mike Johnson's district were enrolled in Medicaid last year.

Yet Johnson is pushing for devastating cuts to Medicaid — all to pay for tax cuts that will predominantly go to the rich.

Is there a better encapsulation of the Republican Party?

Reckless cruelty isn’t strength.

Capitulation isn’t courage.

Cultish allegiance isn’t patriotism.

We used to know the difference.

My detained client was scheduled for a bond hearing this AM in a MA immigration court. He wasn't brought in, and he and his case have disappeared.

I then received this notice of activity on a nonexistent docket in which his name was changed to "N/A"

It's all happening a lot faster than I expected

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.
