Call her and let her know you want her to do this.

A different sense of justice. The DOJ quietly closed 23,000+ criminal cases in the first 6 mos of the Trump 2, abandoning hundreds of investigations into terrorism by violent white supremacist groups, white-collar crime, drugs and other offenses as it shifted resources to pursue immigration cases

WE ARE UNDER-REACTING‼️ If you needed any more proof that the Voting Rights Act is still necessary, just look at what’s happening right now: red states rushing to wipe out Black representation the second SCOTUS gutted it. What went down this week is going to have devastating consequences. 🧵

In America, fringe right-wing courts in Texas want to supersede the judgment of regulators and scientists about the safety of pharmaceuticals and substitute their own views which are transparently predicated on theology and not science. It's MAGA jurisprudence in a nutshell.

This is all extremely true. "Institutionalism" was a crucial failure in getting us to where we are.

The Epstein files are not the only documents the government is hiding.

Trump administration is increasingly ignoring US courts, new analysis shows www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

"When Trump attacks democratic institutions, he does so in the manner of a car wreck — so flagrantly destructive as to command public attention. When SCOTUS undermines our democracy ... it feels more like a slow poisoning: the attacks may be harder to notice, but they are just as deadly."

Trump wanted campus crackdowns. Colleges couldn't wait to oblige.

Trump is mentally unwell. That has never been more clear.

The edits CBS made here are severe, and depict a man who is much more petulant and incoherent than the broadcast would suggest. trib.al/xaPuJZc

A shell company backed by Don Jr. and Eric agreed to merge with a major tungsten mine in Kazakhstan that just last year secured $1.6 billion in U.S. government support. trib.al/mwTfxXl

ICE reportedly spent at least $25 million on AWS during the second Trump administration. Amazon Web Services also holds contracts with Palantir, the surveillance-tech company behind much of ICE’s deportation operation. Now, the company's workers are organizing against America’s deportation machine

Right out of the authoritarian playbook

One insurance denial for Teressa’s husband stated, “your newborn does not meet the criteria for coverage.” “This is when I really start to think they’re just denying,” she recalled. “They’re not even looking. They’re just ‘deny, deny, deny.’” (Published Sept. 2025)

Donald Trump has nearly tripled his net worth since being elected president a second time. The Trump family is also taking in billions from foreign governments and profiting off of the presidency itself, violating the Constitution’s Emoluments Clause. trib.al/ongt4fe

President Trump's sons have met with top officials from eight foreign governments during his second term—while the Trump org expands worlwide. Is Trump’s presidency being used to enrich himself and his family or serve the needs of the American people? Of course.

Looting happens in every war. What's different in the IDF operations in Lebanon is that the command authority gives it a wink and a nod. That didn't happen before. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

"In the age of gig work, volatile income is another source of systemic insecurity around our labor. It makes planning for the future or even giving consistent time to family and other obligations, far more difficult." The latest from our friends at the @economichardship.bsky.social:

BREAKING: 5th Circuit Court of Appeals is requiring that mifepristone be distributed only in person at clinics—citing safety. Since 2000 Mifepristone has allegedly caused the death of 28 women—Viagra has a 10X higher mortality rate. GOP was never pro life—they’ve always been pro control of women.

The US bombing campaign in Somalia long ago faded into background noise for the US public and lawmakers. Unfortunately, the lawless US boat bombing campaign may follow a similar trajectory. Unauthorized killing on autopilot.

CEO pay rose 20x faster than worker pay in 2025, and adjusted for inflation, workers’ wages have fallen 12% since 2019. On May Day, a reminder that the drastic gap between workers and C-suite executives is itself a policy choice.

The U.S. Senate is far and away the least representative legislative body in the democratic world. It’s an aristocratic relic of a bygone era and has essentially no purpose in the modern world.

U.S. tech oligarchs putting themselves in the same position as German heavy industrialists circa 1941. Maybe it will continue to pay off for them. And maybe it won't. The goal should be to make sure the "won't" is as painful as possible. bsky.app/profile/bcfi...

Call me crazy, but maybe, just maybe, presumptively immunizing the president for crimes might have something to do with this.

The $25 billion estimate that a top Pentagon official gave to lawmakers on Wednesday for the total cost to date of the Iran war is a lowball figure that does not include the cost of repairing extensive damage suffered by US bases in the region. www.cnn.com/2026/04/29/p...

RIP VRA, 1965-2026. John Roberts’s life's work has been dismantling what these civil rights leaders gave their lives to build. And if the public doesn't like that, as he told us in 2009, that's just "too bad." www.weekendreading.net/p/americas-s...
