Trump will absolutely not stop unless he is stopped. It wouldn't take much to stop him—he's a coward. But if those who have institutional power don't act, the current crisis will get even worse. He has no self-control and is giddy over the death and suffering he's inflicting.
man, graham platner is not actually young and it’s really insulting our collective intelligence to claim he’s working his way through the youthful confusions of learning how to take accountability for your actions
It has been endlessly enraging to me since this criminal act occurred that the DC cops enabled it. We need to see justice done for this detestable behavior.
SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
Same, wrt your first statement
The latest EV batteries from BYD can charge to 70% in 5 minutes and 97% in 10 minutes.
They're leaving American manufacturers in the dust, and after Trump's all-out war on renewables and EVs, we may never catch up. China is probably going to supply the world.

If we learned nothing else from 2025, it’s that we shouldn’t take for granted that what we love will continue to be funded
If people and libraries don’t buy a certain kind of book, publishers will stop investing in them
That’s also one reason the library book bans are so scary
Guess I'm an anachronism but I always have 2 fiction and 1 nonfiction book in progress. I'm making a wild generalization here but basically if we didn't have nonfiction books how would anyone know anything?
If anyone is up for boosting, Bandcamp is holding a fundraiser for the Trans Continental Pipeline to help trans people escape from Kansas!
As Rep. Jayapal says, our reporting has found that these aren’t isolated incidents. Last October, we tallied more than 170 cases of U.S. citizens detained by immigration agents.
Here’s that investigation she’s referring to:
I know I've plugged this incessantly this week, but if you haven't, you really should listen to my interview with @julieingersoll.bsky.social about Pete Hegseth's religion. Illuminates his obsession with maximum lethality as a religious imperative, and more -->

Fucking lunatics. And grifters playing the role of lunatics to get in with the lunatics
Maybe if our senior leadership is this religiously fanatic we deserve some regime change too
"Trump Says 'I Guess' Americans Should Worry About Iran Retaliating on U.S. Soil: 'Like I Said, Some People Will Die'
Quite the headline from People.com

Good speech. Most US press got bamboozled by Bill Barr's scheme. Trump's collusion with Russia was always real, continues to be. www.youtube.com/live/ylvTFvJ...
"I hope you are impressed," he said to me. "How do you like the performance? I mean, Venezuela is obvious. This might be even better. How do you like the performance?"
"I hope you are impressed," he said to me. "How do you like the performance? I mean, Venezuela is obvious. This might be even better. How do you like the performance?"
"How do you like the performance?"
An illegal war for the sake of spectacle and the amusement of POTUS.
Rubio: “Let me tell you, Iran is run by lunatics, religious fanatic lunatics.”
The constitution's design does not grant the president a kinglike ability to take the country to war by himself, lest he do so for self-serving reasons. That is the entire purpose of dividing that authority between POTUS and Congress. Guess what just happened? www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
Edward Shone, head of communications for Proton AG, told 404 Media in an email: “We want to first clarify that Proton did not provide any information to the FBI, the information was obtained from the Swiss justice department via MLAT." Functionally, though, the material was provided to the FBI.
This is great.
As I wrote in the Globe a few weeks ago, all public officials -- and municipalities, too -- should leave X.
This is morally repugnant behavior! This is par the course for this administration.

What does this imply for those of us who are not Christian, and who labor under the assumption that we're protected by the First Amendment?
Pete Hegseth, if he does not resign, should at least get out of the way and let better men than him talk to the nation and to the press.

Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.
The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. They’re tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.
Replacing the depraved with the merely boneheaded, but both malevolent fiends.
Noem out. www.ms.now/news/kristi-...
But not for the thousands of humans who have been and will continue to be kidnapped, abused, beaten, violated, wrongly imprisoned, and killed.
That senator is Montana's Tim Sheehy.
