Two things happened last weekend.
1. A group of pro-Trump billionaires took control of TikTok's U.S. operations.
2. TikTok appeared to begin suppressing content about ICE's activity in Minneapolis and criticism of Trump.

Buttigieg: Some say you can’t talk about any of the things that were wrong about America because that must mean you hate America. To me, anytime we talk about something that wrong, it’s because some of the finest moments that brought out the greatest character of this country is how we put it right.

Once again, hatred will not be tolerated. I work 24/7/365 to share factual information. One ends up disagreeing with something prompting a whole campaign of hatred.
Learn to disagree, learn to be decent and polite. I do not conform to living in such world where rudeness is normalized.
Be well.

Here's a lengthy, nuanced, and thoughtful new interview with Pete:

It's part of a series that GQ is doing on American men. I don't love the title they chose, but the discussion itself is worth reading.

The Trump administration is canceling the DOT’s rule to get passengers compensation for extreme airline delays - just the latest example of them siding with corporations and against customers.

It was only 5 months ago that Trump said he would only go after the worst of the worst. Now they are disappearing people including U.S. citizens. Next they want to create a national database of citizens. Will states send back individual voting data?

Just making up as he goes
“Ending Ukraine war in 24h was sarcasm”
“Problems with Putin and Zelenskyy”
“He prevented nuclear wars”
“He had Pakistan and Modi in his office”
But then slips that Iran didn’t have the nuclear weapon

C-SPAN caller to Tapper: "When are you going to examine what's going on with Trump? ... this president has been pure chaos, which indicates to me that there is something wrong with him. We will never get a straight answer on his medical exam, and yet you have gone after Joe Biden with a vengeance."

UPDATE: It gets worse. The updated legislative language makes over 250 MILLION ACRES of public land available for sell-off.
🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands.
Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

The Republican tax bill includes the biggest cut to SNAP in history — taking food assistance from people who will go hungry without it, all to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
We must do all we can to stop this betrayal of American families.

Millions of people who use the food assistance program SNAP are facing changes: on what food they can buy, how much money they'll receive or even if they'll still qualify for the program.

Martin Luther King Jr. was labeled radical by the white establishment. The FBI spied on him, trying to take him down.
He still chose nonviolence. Peaceful protest was his power—even when they called him dangerous.
“Radical” doesn’t mean you’re wrong… it means you’re getting close to the truth.
