The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker. Just to level set

The Trump administration is using NSPM-7 to compile the names of alleged domestic terror groups. It won’t tell us who’s on the list.

#NoKings in Philly, aka “THE I LOVE AMERICA” RALLY. Uplifting, patriotic, and PEACEFUL. NO KINGS 👑 , GO BIRDS 🦅 Philadelphia 10/18/2025

Trump’s masked gestapo just shoved a Common Defense member and Air Force veteran to the ground and arrested him for peacefully protesting in Illinois. The lawlessness of this regime must end — and he must be released immediately!

So much to mourn here. ICE shot and killed a single father just after he has dropped his two kids off at daycare. Their justification for stopping him was traffic violations form 12 years ago. Their justification for shooting him was that he was driving away. A completely needless tragedy.

Get up to speed on meme/gamer culture. Here's a rabbit hole starter kit: darrenloprinzi.substack.com/p/an-ugly-bu...

SCOTUS allowing ICE to racially profile will embolden Trump to use ICE & military against his political opponents, potentially demanding citizenship checks at polls & intimidating Dem voters in 2026. Already seeing such tactics with occupation of LA, DC & Chicago www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Thanks to Donald Trump’s reckless policies, Genesee County is losing a new semiconductor plant. Thanks for nothing, buddy. michiganadvance.com/2025/07/16/l...

🧵 Trump is in trouble. He boxed himself in. He promised transparency, and now we are getting the opposite. Bondi says there is no Epstein list; Trump says there IS a list but it was written by "Crooked Hillary," etc. 1/x

Here's something I wrote about the Epstein, Trump, Bondi, & MAGA saga. #Epstein #MAGA #PamBondi #EpsteinFiles #EpsteinList open.substack.com/pub/darrenlo...

The Trump administration is looking to make sweeping cuts at the nation’s weather agencies, including the closure of all federally funded meteorology labs. www.theassemblync.com/environment/...

In 1776, people took a risk to stand up to power and demand better. That spirit still matters as much as it ever did. 🦅 1/x #FourthOfJuly Fourth of July

Biden built an industrial policy. It was working. We were on a comeback. This Republican budget bill - which destroys the clean energy industry in the U.S. - is a choice to surrender to China.

When Republicans hold power, they hurt people, tank the economy, and distort our democracy to preserve their power because hurting people and tanking the economy is unpopular.

1. This is torture. 2. The US is a signatory to the United Nations Convention Against Torture (UNCAT), which went into force in 1994. The US is now violating a treaty it ratified. 3. No wonder the Trump regime did not want Abrego Garcia back in the US where he could testify to their crimes.

NEW: Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s lawyers seek permission to file an amended complaint in his civil case in Maryland. Among other things, the amended complaint “includes Abrego Garcia's first-hand account of torture and mistreatment at CECOT…”

The devastating effects that the One, Big, "Barbaric" Bill would levy onto the American people is staggering. A blatant smash 'n grab. Just read this partial analysis by the numbers, and the way MAGA has been straight-up lying about it. #Medicaid #OBBB #BBB www.perplexity.ai/page/maga-re...

Here's my update on where we're at with MAGA's Billionaire 'Smash and Grab' and what we can do to stop it.

I wrote a little something about Creeping Normalcy & the Boiling Frogs regarding the current state of our politics; which only half of us are outraged about *now* but the other half's 2014 versions of themselves would've been outraged too. Hope you find it useful. open.substack.com/pub/darrenlo...

This. Is. Insane. Read this, please.

An army of moms are are currently with Senator Cantwell in Washington DC right now rallying to stop the Big Ugly Bill and save Medicaid and SNAP. We can't let Trump's aggressive rhetoric towards Iran distract us from the fact that his budget will destroy Medicaid. #MomSky

🧵OOF!!! Check out this Twitter thread by a political optics + vis comms expert who runs a live event production firm. He went to Trump's parade & this is his scathing critique., complete with video/photo proof. What a SHIT SHOW! Our military deserves better. threadreaderapp.com/thread/19340...

I wrote a little something about the hope that the nationwide "No Kings" protest gives me. #NoKings #Philly #Philadelhia #SaveDemocracy @indivisible.org @indivisiblephl.bsky.social #Indivisible open.substack.com/pub/darrenlo...

Our military deserves better than this empty charade. Yikes. The tank squeaking over silence is incredible.

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Yes, Trump the saboteur's tariffs are bad and doing enormous harm to the country. But he's not finished. The budget bill he's trying to pass will essentially bankrupt the United States and do an incredible amount of additional and lasting harm. Learn more 👇 www.crfb.org/blogs/senate...

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Here's something I wrote about how we've been trying to reach MAGA voters the past 10 years, how it's obviously not working, and the need for a different approach. #MAGA #Politics #Division open.substack.com/pub/darrenlo...

Whoa!! Democrats going full savage on Pete Hegseth! Love to see it 😂🔥

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read. He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

Fact check: TRUE!

"Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in. The attempts were 'near real-time'... "Whoever was attempting to log in was using one of the newly created DOGE accounts..." www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

SCOOP --> The cop who initially attested to Abrego Garcia's alleged MS-13 membership was subsequently suspended and indicted for serious professional misconduct: Sharing case info with a sex worker. This undermines Trumpworld's smears. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1940...

Across the hundreds of agencies that regulate nearly every aspect of American life, from flying in airplanes to processing poultry, Trump administration officials are working with Elon Musk's team to launch a new phase in their quest to dismantle much of the federal government: mass deregulation.

There are great conferences and science in the US, but with the way things are right now, it’s too risky to attend.
