The United States is in an unprecedented crisis. A convicted criminal has attained the presidency. And he has decided that a crime is not a crime if it is committed on his behalf.

Looking forward to this!

Hungarians showing how to win big in an unfair election: organize AND protest AND vote AND demand profound change.

One of the ways news media often fail us is by giving us the microscopic rather than the telescopic view. Everything I mention in this essay is well-documented, but the dots are mostly not connected to make visible this death by a thousand cuts our country is undergoing.

The time to do something is now, and we must act.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”

His job is to destroy the United States

This is very very big. Like a big deal and massive cuts. These can’t even be seen as budgetary since you don’t get much savings in the context of trillions budget. They want the US out of R&D out of science research.

Transgender people have always existed and always will. Trans people everywhere deserve safety, joy, and equality. 🩷🤍🩵 #transdayofvisibility #tdov

This was GREAT!!! Williamson is super smart and this was an eye-opening conversation about taxation and democracy.

I have a crazy way of reporting on 'No Kings' that's different from the NYT...I go out and talk to protesters about what they think Sure, size matters, but so does the passion of a movement offering the 4-letter word that beats back dictators Hope My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

Guess what. You should hate fascists for the way they hurt people and you can do that without being homophobic or ableist or fatphobic or transphobic. Related, no politician deserves your trust if they’re doing any of this or if they’re throwing vulnerable people under the bus.

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States. This would provide Donald Trump with a pretext to try to cancel or “federalize” the coming Congressional elections. snyder.substack.com/p/the-desire...

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

License plate readers. Cellphone location data. Social media monitoring. Now, real-time facial recognition on the street. DHS is building a surveillance apparatus—and you're probably already in it. Our latest with @france24.com:

Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones. Russia helps Iran track American forces. And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil. Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

In case Gaza and now the Iranian school didn’t make it clear, militaries using AI to pick targets and execute strikes is just going to result in escalating tragedy and atrocities that leaders can shrug off and blame on the technology, making war crimes “acceptable” and part of the strategy of war.

1. My newest Anti-Trans Legal Risk Map is here. For trans adults, Kansas is the newest "Do Not Travel" warning, only the 3rd state to achieve that warning. For youth, a change to the map increases risk to Medium in many states. Nationwide risk remains extreme. Subscribe to support my journalism.

🚨BREAKING: An election-denying former Donald Trump campaign staffer who was subpoenaed by the FBI over his role in the attempt to steal the 2020 election is now taking credit for writing the sweeping voter suppression bill passed by the House Wednesday that could disenfranchise millions.

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship. Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

Playing softball in the snow with shelter dogs awaiting adoption on Valentine’s Day, Ian and Jaggar face off in an encounter that falls far outside the range of Cupid’s arrow. But if they give each other another chance, what started out as the worst day ever could turn into the best. #mmromance

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.” What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

The banality of evil is shocking. An ex-Big Lots warehouse for cheap consumer junk is bought by ICE to ship as many as 7,500 handcuffed human beings, as the Trump regime builds a U.S. gulag archipelago The unthinkable comes to Pa. coal country. My special report www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

Three rules in FBI firearm training: 1. Always point your weapon downrange 2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot 3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like

Exactly right, and therefore important not to give credit for an investigation of an obvious atrocity. Appropriate responses are apologies, resignations, firings, impeachments. The individuals who killed people should be tried before a judge and jury.

The president should be impeached and convicted, as should everyone responsible for these outrages. ICE should be disbanded. So should the Department of Homeland Security. And the people who have killed should be investigated and brought before judges and juries.

When you're a paramilitary force, they let you do it

In the early 1930s the SA was roughing people up, creating chaos in neighborhoods, seeking to terrorize with the occasional killing. By the late 1930s it had been supplanted by the SS, which was much better trained.
