Defense Agency Pauses MLK Day, Holocaust Remembrance Under Trump Order

A leaked memo shows DIA suspending MLK Day, Black History Month, and Holocaust Remembrance under Trump’s anti-DEI order. β€œDIA will pause all activities… effective immediately.” This isn’t reform, it’s erasure.

Trump Orders Guantanamo for β€˜The Worst’ Migrants

Trump’s plan to detain 30,000 at Guantanamo isn’t about safetyβ€”it’s cruelty. Labeling them β€œthe worst” fuels fear while reviving a notorious prison for political theater. This isn’t border securityβ€”it’s state-sanctioned dehumanization.

Ann Telnaes, Pulitzer-winning cartoonist for the Washington Post since 2008, quit the paper this week when her editor killed this cartoon (in rough draft form here) depicting WaPo owner Jeff Bezos and other craven billionaires debasing themselves before Donald J. Trump.

There is absolutely no doubt that Elon Musk is a Nazi and an anti-semite -- and he is the President-elect of the United States. This is beyond concerning.

I beg you to re-post this so that every single American is aware of the fact that Musk is a Nazi and that his colleagues are, too.

He’s so utterly contemptible.

Note: not only was most of the money he gave money that he gave to himself, but he actually gave away hundreds of millions less than the law requires him to give.

I just...most of us were raised to know that this conduct is contemptible. It’s so terrifying some don’t.

This is oligarchy, not democracy.

It is already funded 100x over, but if this intrigues you as much as it does me (and apparently a number of other people), there are still 4 days left to sign up. In English. Mix of new and archival. Digital, paperback, or hardback.
