By saying the campaign is “about a lot of things” — drugs, oil, migrants, mental institutions — Trump effectively admits there is no unified legal basis. Under both U.S. and international law, use of force must rest on a specific, articulable justification. #holdfast #steadystate

This week, the authors of Project 2025 released their sequel. Project 2026 lays out 7 initiatives before the midterms. In today’s Let's Address This, I break down what’s at stake, offer concrete ways to fight back, and share why hope and action still matter.

Our bad take of the day comes from Mark Cuban. Medicare already serves every American over 65 and does it fairly well. National healthcare gives bargaining power to the govt. Cuban knows that European countries do this and pay FAR LESS for the same treatments and have better outcomes.

NEW: @governor.ca.gov Gavin Newsom just deployed @caloes.bsky.social fire and rescue resources — including 150 personnel — to Washington state to support flood response efforts.

Ridiculous. 🙄

It's too late at this point...

See how they sound when it’s one violent brown skinned criminal?

Europe and Asia both need to do it. Hell, just Canada and Japan dumping bonds would kill the US economy.

In case you ever needed proof that the Heritage Foundation is not a conservative organization, here we have them cheering on the Federal Government threatening to strip all funding from a state that does not make political decisions the President likes. Any true conservative would be howling.

ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground. Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse. Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

Aaaaand there it is, folks: Trump’s serious quo for FIFA’s silly quid. www.cbsnews.com/news/doj-mov...

Always a favorite actress. I'm with her, too.

This is still VERY illegal. The Trump admin says anyone who pays $1 million will be deemed to have "exceptional business ability" and become eligible for an employment-based immigrant visa. But there's nothing stopping someone from just getting a loan or using parents' money.

In January, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services will roll out a pilot program that will use AI to review Medicare patients' requests for care. Insurers will get rewarded when they deny care. What could go wrong?

www.tiktok.com/t/ZTrQGUW1W/ ICE has been illegally holding 400 CHILDREN! Kids. In detention, FFS!!! It’s disgusting at a level I cannot get my head around.

Just sick.

“.. THIS IS THE WAY A FASCIST TALKS: vilifying an ethnic minority, blaming them collectively for crimes, rallying crowds against them .. And this is the way a fascist audience responds: chanting .. and applauding his slurs ..” @saletan.bsky.social www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-atta...

This, but with skill regression, too.

But the woman would've been too emotional, right? 🙄

Trump has given up on his biggest campaign promise. Now he mocks the cost of living crisis and calls affordability a "con job." Meanwhile, corporations that have the power to jack up prices, suppress wages, and bust unions are laughing all the way to the bank (and funding Trump's ballroom).

For once he speaks the truth

We need more of this across the USA! Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has approved a set of new laws designed to strengthen protections for immigrants and limit abusive immigration enforcement practices.

The conflation of "foreign criminals" and "illegal migrants" is disgusting. Vile when some people don't have a safe route to flee from the utter detestation & brutality of war. It's all grim enough without the Labour Government pushing further misinformation.

Our lawyers were at the Supreme Court defending the will of the people, not the will of billionaires. We aren’t going to allow Republicans to erode campaign finance protections. Along with the DCCC and DSCC, we’re standing up for the people and fighting for fair elections.

The DOJ has confirmed that President Trump blocked the release of more than 4,100 documents requested as part of a lawsuit brought by injured January 6 police officers. With this action, the president is directly blocking a case alleging that he helped to fuel the deadly riot. trib.al/o6IVFjF

Firing over 100 immigration judges. Arresting immigrants outside of their immigration hearings. Pausing asylum decisions. And now? Cancelling citizenship ceremonies, the final step to becoming a U.S. citizen. Just remember that Trump never cared about "legal immigration."

Make him say it out loud: "We want another cold war situation to try to validate the military spending with the younger generations. But we're creating the Axis this time."

THIS 👇

Corporations and ultra-rich individuals with numerous business interests cannot be trusted to prioritize the public’s right to know over their own bottom lines. When billionaire conglomerates take control of media, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

Its gonna come to blows, and even then...

Florida’s voucher audit is a warning: the state lost track of 30,000 students and hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars that should have supported public schools. Kids pay the price when there’s no oversight. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...
