Trump wants Greenland so he can sell the strategic minerals to China and pocket the cash. Like Venezuela, but with rare earths rather than oil.

Some important new government policy that Native Americans might be interested in:

The Trump administration and his axis in Congress and the Supreme Court are in an undeclared war against the people of the United States. It’s going to get worse before it gets better.

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

Good reminder that there is no place to put thoughts that you are having right now about what should be done. Keep them in your head. Consider ANYTHING you type as something that will be seen by the DHS. Notebooks are not safe either.

There’s a lot I don’t know about what 2026 might bring, but I promise you this: the #ScholarSunday threads will continue! Here’s my 257th of public scholarly writing, podcasts, new & forthcoming books from the past week. Add more below, share widely, & enjoy! 🗃️ blackwhiteandread.com/scholarsunda...

The latest from A Sea of Words. lincolnp.substack.com/p/ships-of-f... Feel free to read and share.

This is one of our favorites!

If president I would use my unitary powers and compliant Congress to impound all funding for Supreme Court and turn its current building into a homeless shelter. Justices would still exist, per Art. III, but serve pro bono; they & clerks could meet and hold trials in chief’s living room. Save $!

Never believe the fuckers who say "why bother, they already won"

A truly horrifying state of affairs for college and graduate students. And if they can’t be bothered to read, what should we infer about society as a whole? This is not a “when I was in school” screed. It’s much darker.

Greg Bovino calls NANCY SINATRA "a main cause of violence"

Spread the word: Trump is pro-drug dealer, pro-child sex trafficker, and pro-rich people. TL;dr: Trump hates the 99%.

ICE Über Alles.

I have escaped from domestic violence. The domestic violence was not just contained to the home, but also involved weaponization of systems. I hope to do a fuller accounting of what happened one day to bring light to this problem. For now, here is my "Thank You" note to Joe Biden & the VAWA.

Occasionally you don’t follow a story because it feels marginal or just doesn’t click. But it’s there and you want to be part of the conversation and someone drops a one-piece explainer—and you haven’t laughed that hard in months. This is that story. www.theringer.com/2025/11/25/n...

Scientists: have you been the target of an online harassment campaign, doxxing, or weaponized FOIA requests? I'd like to talk to you about steps you had to take to protect your digital security for an upcoming Nature story. (You can be anonymous if necessary.) RTs appreciated.

I shouted out "Who killed the CDC?" When after all It was a Kennedy

Trump filed lawsuits over jokes, tweets, and news articles, but not once over any of the countless allegations of child rape. I feel like more people should mention that.

NEW: The Indiana Senate voted 29-18 to reject a proposed, Trump-backed December session aimed at redrawing the state’s congressional map. The vote keeps the state’s current map intact, marking yet another rebuke of the president’s national gerrymander push.

79-year-old Paul Bojerski was born to Polish parents in a WWII German refugee camp. His family legally emigrated to the U.S. when he was 5. He’s been taken by ICE in Florida. www.orlandosentinel.com/2025/11/16/s...

Very important point.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Speechless at Inuk artist Billy Gauthier’s newish sculpture, Silatsualimâk, Anânavut (The Earth, Our Mother), at The Rooms. Carved from a fin whale skull, the installation next to view of St John’s harbour is spectacular even on a gloomy evening.

Securing defections from the authoritarian regime is the centerpiece of any successful pro-democracy resistance. Politics isn’t fandom—when someone leaves the authoritarian coalition, we should take it as a win.

If a man said what Megyn Kelly said, you would assume he was a trafficker. This young lady is wise beyond her years, but she is still a “child”and she would like a word…

Rooting for Lauren Boebert was not on my '25 bingo card.

Imagine one of the worst people on Earth saying this about you, and the you happens to be Donald Trump, the President.

No, MS Word, I do NOT want you to summarize the document I AM LITERALLY WRITING MYSELF. Why would I need that? God, I hate how intrusive this s--t is. I just want to make it go away and it appears that our institutional version of the software does not have any of the off switches for it.

www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u... Have to wonder if @senangusking.bsky.social agreed to this “deal” on Josh Hawley’s recommendation, as he did when he voted for a staunch anti-abortion judge. With friends like King, who needs Susan Collins?

Why do Trump and MAGA Republicans hate the Americans so much?

omg

Jared Isaacman, the billionaire Space X fanboy picked to take over NASA, plans to eviscerate the agency

The rest of the world gets it. American media fails.

You say you'll change the constitution Well, you know We all want to change your head You tell me it's the institution Well, you know You'd better free your mind instead… youtu.be/BGLGzRXY5Bw?...

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

Heads up on this. Truly frightening.

I really wish I had time to write more about the history of Social #Democracy in #Finland and the Nordics, in part because I think it would be valuable to understand that #welfare state wasn't built in a day. And that the work is both boring and neverending. Utopias are processes, not destinations.

🫤😒

have to hand it to the federal government of Nigeria for S-tier trolling if nothing else

Mike Johnson is holding the nation hostage and denying an elected official their voice... Why? Either Mike Johnson is in the Epstein files and/or someone in the Epstein files has compromising information on Mike Johnson. Any other theories?

Excellent guide.

House Speaker Mike Johnson is not taking enough heat for the current catastrophe. He’s an easy mark. Cry havoc.

There are apparently more preservation laws protecting wooden window frames in San Francisco than the literal White House which is fascinating

Such an important point. We ignore this at our peril.
