Opinion | What Can’t Trump Wreck?

#GOPDeathCult obviously fascist, just one measure
On USAID: The study developed forecasting models that predicted the Trump administration’s steep funding cuts “could result in more than 14.05 million additional all-age deaths, including 4.54 million in children younger than age 5 years, by 2030.”

How the Democrats Became the Party That Brings Pencils to a Knife Fight

“Progressives and Democrats are uncomfortable with the acquisition and the use of power in ways that Republicans are not,” Mr. Holder said. “And that time has got to be over. We need to be unabashed in our desire to acquire power, and then to use power.”

Socialist Zohran Mamdani could be New York’s next mayor. This is what the western left could learn from him | Owen Jones He has used clear messaging to redirect anger from the disenfranchised to the economic elites. That the wealthy are worried shows it’s working, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

So what’s the universal lesson? Three Ms are key: messaging, medium and movement. Key to his success are core, endlessly repeated commitments focused on a cost of living crisis triggered by a broken economic system. Anger is redirected from the disenfranchised to thriving economic elites.

Protecting American Energy From State Overreach By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1.  Purpose.

This new White House executive order says that the US Attorney General is going to prevent states from implementing democratically passed laws regarding climate change and clean energy. It scarcely needs stating at this point that this is wildly, unambiguously unconstitutional. Dictator shit.

Ranking Member Angie Craig Marks Trump’s First 100 Days with 100 Headlines

"Family farmers are struggling right now. The instability, poor communication and threats to allies make it tough to regain the market access we’ve lost. We don’t need reckless trade wars. We need to pass a bipartisan farm bill to give farm country the certainty it needs,” said Ranking Member Craig.

Elon Musk’s DOGE Isn’t Stopping Fraud. It’s Making It Easier. A scathing whistleblower report suggests that DOGE coders may have pilfered troves of personal data that would be extremely valuable to business leaders.

Far from meeting its mandate to reduce fraud and abuse, DOGE is best understood as an effort to defraud Americans themselves. Now there’s evidence that the group has stolen sensitive personal information.

The rise of end times fascism The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them

This is a belief system that is genocidal at its core and treasonous to the wonder and beauty of this world. The more people understand that the right has succumbed to the Armageddon complex, the more they will be willing to fight back, realizing that absolutely everything is now on the line.

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

DOGE Is Going to Kill a Lot of Americans The Democratic Party could spell this out clearly and consistently for voters.

"These agencies are being unlawfully defunded in a bid to justify privatization. Before Musk and other rentiers seize public assets, they’re deliberately breaking them to “prove” the right-wing myth of public-sector ineptitude. That’s the kind of thing a fighting Democratic Party could politicize."

Trump’s EPA aims to cut pollution rules projected to save nearly 200,000 lives: ‘People will be hurt’ Moves to roll back 31 pollution regulations risk public health and big annual healthcare savings, Guardian analysis shows

“For every million dollars of favors that Trump’s EPA is handing out to corporate polluters, the public suffers $6m in public health costs through asthma attacks, cancers and heart and lung disease. That’s a great deal for corporate polluters, but it's a bad deal for anyone else who breathes.”

The video of Trump’s deportees arriving in El Salvador is horrific.

This is 21st century Nazism.

Identities concealed, trafficked to a foreign labour camp. No due process, no evidence of crime. Dehumanised.

Where is the global outrage?

The crime is historic; the normalisation catastrophic.
