I’m just posting this because it makes some sense of all the nonsense. www.facebook.com/share/v/1CY4...

I just declared a peacetime emergency to ensure we’re providing every possible resource for those fighting the wildfires in Minnesota. As fires remain active up north, I’m grateful for the tireless work and coordinated response of those on the frontlines.

If Earth stays at its current levels of warming — below policymakers’ goal of 1.5 degrees Celsius — polar ice sheets may melt, causing seas to rise and displacing millions in coastal communities, a new study finds.

Unfamiliar with the role of science in America’s national defense, or the history of science innovation in the defense of sovereign nations?

Dear press: Why do questions of mental acuity activate only with the prior but not the current administration? Asking for a nation.

JUST IN: Pittsburgh voters have approved a ballot that bans the city from privatizing the local water and sewers system. The measure passed by a very large margin. This was one of my guide of the main races to watch today: boltsmag.org/whats-on-the...

These are deeply, profoundly, tragically abnormal times riven by cruel, hateful, reckless and ignorant people bent on dismantling our government, strengthening Putin, stoking fear, breaking our spirit, enriching themselves and ruling over the ashes of public liberty. We won’t let them succeed.

Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary, bungled answers on Tuesday about habeas corpus, incorrectly saying that the legal right of people to challenge their detention by the government was actually the president’s “constitutional right” to deport people.

Is it too much to ask for an IRS Commissioner who understands the law?

Fact checking alone isn't enough when these people speak Fact-twist-checking is the new gold standard. Sheesh.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Forget about the legal case. A man was wrongly deported and placed in a notorious prison with leaders of a gang out to get him. Anyone with an ounce of basic human decency would fix the mistake and return that man to the United States

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night. So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

They are coming for our forests and parks- call Congress and tell them no sale of our parks or trees! Sharing a soft pastel painting of a perfect spot to relax…we all need a relaxing space today💕 #art #landscapepainting #softpastel #evergreens #nationalparks

America, what has happened to you? No one will invite you over to play until you get you shit together. Seriously reconsider and hire back the smart kids. www.instagram.com/reel/DGx8pzy...

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

People were mean to him on Twitter, so he bought Twitter. People were still mean to him, so he bought the US government. And he is going to use it to hunt down those bad people!

Exactly!

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos. Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

Monica shared this.

It’s like Watergate, only in this version Nixon directly mails the tapes to Woodward and Bernstein

It took 63 days for the current administration to commit arguably one of the most egregious security breaches in modern history. Worldwide. And his response is that he thinks the Atlantic is a shitty magazine?

The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

So Witkoff was in the Signal group and also in Moscow!!! WTF...

I was told I was overreacting. Now they’re about to fire 83,000 people from the VA. A third of whom are veterans themselves.

This was delicious. Reports are saying Canada is making energy deals with Blue states while responding with tariffs on Red states.

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

I never thought leopards would eat MY face

This is insane

We have overcome near-death experiences before. We shall overcome this one too. Not by denying we are in a constitutional crisis. We are. But we can and will prevail if we face the truth unflinchingly and never abandon the long twilight struggle against evil. open.substack.com/pub/roberthu...
