“Dear media, I can’t stand the headline "No agreement between the US and Denmark” any longer. If an armed man storms a bank, you don't run the headline: "Robber and cashier can't reach an agreement on money transfer." Stop framing imperial aggression as normal diplomacy.”

Liebe Medien, ich kann die Schlagzeile "Keine Einigung zwischen USA und Dänemark" nicht mehr sehen. Wenn ein Bewaffneter eine Bank stürmt, titelt ihr doch auch nicht: "Räuber und Kassiererin finden keinen Konsens über Geldübergabe." Hört auf, imperiale Aggression als normale Diplomatie zu framen.

A Republican elected official proudly declaring he has no problem with agents of the state shooting unarmed citizens in the face if they annoy the regime.
It is impossible to make democracy work with a party that not only tolerates people like this, but elevates them to positions of influence.

Rep. Randy Fine: "If you impede the actions of our law enforcement as they seek to repel foreign invaders from our country, you get what's coming to you. I do not feel bad for the woman that was involved."

My biggest pet peeve is when companies in Philadelphia don’t use up to date images of our beautiful and dynamic skyline.
I think I’ve officially met my match for the worst representation of Philadelphias skyline…

Such a good point on SCOTUS hypocrisy when it comes to Trump vs Biden:
They let a nationwide injunction kill Biden’s student loan relief when they had a chance to rule on it.
5 months into Trump’s presidency, suddenly nationwide injunctions are a grave threat to executive power and they must rule.

It will be a minor note in the history of all this but the utter inability of Schumer to understand what's happening and to respond appropriately is historically bad in its own way
Schumer on the Democratic response to Trump's shakedown of Harvard: "We sent him a very strong letter just the other day asking eight very strong questions."

“…why do you not bestir your-selves, why do you allow these men who are in power to rob you step by step, openly and in secret, of one domain of your rights after another, until one day nothing, nothing at all will be left but a mechanized state system presided over by criminals and drunks?”

Schumer’s answer is bad in various ways, among them:
- there is as yet no charge or even official statement that Khalil broke any law
- not all violations of the law are deportable offenses
- the assault on the 1st amendment and widely-reported, grave due process violations deserve mention
- there is as yet no charge or even official statement that Khalil broke any law
- not all violations of the law are deportable offenses
- the assault on the 1st amendment and widely-reported, grave due process violations deserve mention
Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats have a post up saying ‘Free Mahmoud Khalil’ while Chuck Schumer, leader of the Senate Dems, from New York!, can’t bring himself to condemn the detention of Khalil. Shameful.

Viewed in the very best light, this an argument for making the country to suffer material damage so that Donald Trump ends up owning it. It’s an argument for not resisting the chaos in the government, the chaos in the markets, and the damage to the economy—for letting it all stay bad.

Curious what counts as a blaring red flag for America if this doesn’t.
A federal court petition demanding Mahmoud Khalil’s release provides details of the Columbia University activist’s arrest. Trump said ICE “proudly” detained Khalil in compliance with executive orders that target noncitizens who, in his view, engage in activities that are contrary to U.S. interests.

Fox News reported that JD Vance had to move to an “undisclosed location” due to protests at the Vermont resort where he’s skiing this weekend. For inflicting misery on the world and here at home in America, this is exactly the energy that should greet Vance wherever he goes for the rest of his days.

Nothing about kids dying from measles is normal. Anti-vaxxers like RFK Jr. and the Republicans who enable them are responsible for every single one of these deaths.

True late stage capitalism grifts here. Gut every agency for “efficiency” then bend every corrupt act to drain the remaining cents out of the American people. We either get to sit around and wait for a drained and poor fascist state, a la Octavia Butler; or demand a dramatic rejection of power.
Tesla, whose chief executive, Elon Musk, has been advising President Trump on how to cut government spending, is likely to receive a lucrative contract to supply armored versions of its Cybertruck pickup to the State Department, according to public documents.
