This shows the administration’s lies. Frame by frame. Don’t watch it if you don’t want to see lots of violence. But it does show the blatant lies.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

Another one from MLK, from the book, Where Do We Go from Here: Chaos or Community: The step backward has a new name today. It is called the “white backlash.” But the white backlash is nothing new. It is the surfacing of old prejudices, hostilities and ambivalences that have always been there.

From the Birth of a New Nation speech (excerpts):
the oppressor never voluntarily gives freedom to the oppressed. You have to work for it. . . . Freedom is never given to anybody. For the oppressor has you in domination because he plans to keep you there, and he never voluntarily gives it up.

Why ICE Can Kill With Impunity
Over the past decade, US immigration agents have shot and killed more than two dozen people. Not a single agent appears to have faced criminal charges.

Not ominous at all. I'm sure they want their list of Jews for wholesome reasons. It should be no problem. What could go wrong? It's not like we know of any historical precedent, or anything. /sarcasm
At a time when multiple federal departments run by Donald Trump have posted Nazi slogans or imagery or songs in the last week—with the total number of incidents being impossible to count just on one hand—Trump is now demanding lists of Jews from U.S. institutions.

Time to wake the fuck up, all.
UPenn faculty condemn Trump administration’s demand for ‘lists of Jews’
Groups say EEOC demand for names and personal details echoes dark history and threatens safety and civil rights

Apologies if it's behind a firewall. I didn't see an option for a gift link.
The Real Stakes, and Real Story, of Peter Thiel’s Antichrist Obsession
Thirty years ago, a peace-loving Austrian theologian spoke to Peter Thiel about the apocalyptic theories of Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt. They’ve been a road map for the billionaire ever since.

Slapping tariffs on Canadian potash and immediately thereafter lifting sanctions on potash from Belarus. More lazy writing. It's so transparent.

LONG RAMBLING EMOTIONAL THREAD:

It's World AIDS Day. Since the Administration has decided to keep it quiet, I'd like to share my introduction to AIDS.

I grew up in Seattle. My mom remarried a man who had a brother who was a King County Sheriff's Deputy. His name was Terry and he was gay. 1/x

When Canada did this, it was brilliant. It was for this reason that I spoke with my financial advisor about moving into foreign assets. They were worthless, but I still think it would make sense to have some accounts outside the US to hedge my risk. It's a matter of when, not if the economy tanks.

Meanwhile, here's an example of the horrendous things found in Hillary Clinton's emails—the only story worth covering for any serious news outlet in 2016, apparently.

This email is also regarding a child who suffered abuse from a grown man.
