We now have a king, or a president attempting to be one. We now routinely side with big and autocratic against the small and democratic.

Is it time to consider the once-unthinkable, breaking up?

"The American idea is worth fighting for. But not indefinitely," writes @billmckibben.bsky.social.
Will Trump force America to break up?
He seems determined to try.

Rümeysa Öztürk, Tufts student held by Ice, vows to continue legal action after jail release
PhD student says she is excited to get back to her studies during what has been a ‘very difficult’ time A Tufts University student from Turkey has returned to Boston, one day after being released from a Louisiana immigration detention center where she was held for more than six weeks after being arrested for her political speech. Rümeysa Öztürk told reporters at Logan Airport on Saturday that she was excited to get back to her studies during what has been a “very difficult” period. “In the last 45 days, I lost both my freedom and also my education during a crucial time for my doctoral studies,” she said. “But I am so grateful for all the support, kindness and care.” A federal judge ordered Öztürk’s release Friday pending a final decision on her claim that she was illegally detained following an op-ed she co-wrote last year criticizing her university’s response to Israel and the war in Gaza. She filed a lawsuit challenging her detention now assigned to US district judge William Sessions in Burlington, Vermont. He granted her bail after finding she had raised substantial claims that her rights were violated. Continue reading...

A new wave of research into genocide is overturning stories about victims going meekly to slaughter.

Resistance was frequent, both among the Armenians (against whom the Turks began a genocide #OTD in 1915) and among Jews during the Holocaust.

Genocide resisters, long overlooked by history, step into the spotlight
Recent studies on mass violence have turned the spotlight on the resilience of targeted individuals and communities.

The Trump administration has deported a 2-year old U.S. citizen to one of the most violent countries in the world.

Why does the House Republican majority continue to enable this disgusting, unchristian-like behavior?

These people are unfit to govern.

If Jesus Christ showed up today, this regime would immediately deport him to a foreign supermax prison without due process. And then they would brag about it on Twitter.
They'd Deport Jesus

Morning Bluesky.

A draft Executive Order seen by the NYT suggests the US is about to abandon Africa, which would be a big win for Russia and China.

The drastic overhaul of the State Department would eliminate almost all African operations and close embassies and consulates.

Looks like Trump was just isin the project 2025 people to get in power. In reality it’s the kremlin that is directing things now. Trump is a Russian asset, no doubt about it anymore.
