Exhausted yet? It’s been three full days since Donald Trump returned to the Presidency and he’s already drowning us in outrages. Susan B. Glasser breaks down the Week One distractions, late-night devilry, executive overreach, and the Administration’s infighting.

If you're looking for a place to do some work, the public library is like a coffeeshop where you don't need to buy anything and there's a lot more space and you can stay as long as you like and you don't get any coffee.

Thank you 🔥🔥🔥

MURKOWSKI comes out against Hegseth for DOD, first GOP opponent. "The leader of the Department of Defense must demonstrate and model the standards of behavior and character we expect of all servicemembers, and Mr. Hegseth’s nomination to the role poses significant concerns that I cannot overlook."

Donald Trump revoked the civil rights act of 1965. They can now discriminate against race, gender, sexual orientation, religion. Here in Canada Pierre Poilievre is walking down the same path by disregarding transgender people. Human rights in Canada need to be protected.

Let go of the love fairytale

Libraries & librarians have never been more important. If we care about the future, we must make sure every school, every community, every child has access to a library & a librarian. And we have to give them all our support, so they can do their vital work, which benefits us ALL! #SaveLibraries

Nor am I!

This, from @clintsmithiii.bsky.social, has been on my mind today.

A reminder - don't use Amazon, but go to bookshops, which play a far more vital role in promoting literacy just by simply making books more visible, and allow you to find things by chance rather than by what the algorithm decides.
