Nothing remotely resembling an insurrection is happening anywhere in the country. Any violence associated with protest has been isolated, mild, and, in nearly every case, instigated by federal law enforcement. If we let Trump get away with calling dissent an insurrection, our republic is over.

I’ll just come right out and say it. It’s only a matter of time when Trump will make up with some reason that Hamas broke the cease-fire, and he will then aid Israel to take over Gaza. That has always been their goal.

Still amazed that the Vatican has been more responsive to the threat Trump represents than the vast majority of American institutions.

“It is patients who will be the victims of the war on DEI in medical education and training, not just the institutions that the administration seeks vengeance against.” 💯

The BMJ @bmj.com · 2h

The Trump administration and its allies have taken several steps to ensure that medical schools in the US dismantle all diversity, equity, and inclusion policies.

It is patients who will be the victims of this, write @gavinyamey.bsky.social and @michaeldgreen.com

Trump is NOT going to win the Nobel Peace Prize, but his last minute support of a GAZA ceasefire is his attempt at a Hail Mary. When someone else wins the Nobel, Trump will bail.

New Yorkers know Attorney General James for who she is: a champion for justice who fights relentlessly for the people. Donald Trump knows her only as an obstacle to his corruption.

My mom is helping as many individuals as she can in Chicago. She’s a bilingual attorney close to retirement, but wants to do more. Proud of her. She didn’t go to law school until her forties. She was a domestic worker and had four children.

The right loves the accounts, which often rail against supposed voter fraud.

They’re run by a Macedonian who illegally donated to a U.S. House candidate.
