MAJOR BREAKING: Senator Elizabeth Warren just told Call to Activism exclusively that she’s calling for a formal investigation into “insider trading” among Trump’s friends:

"Did Trump or those with inside knowledge help wealthy investors cash in on his tariff flip-flopping?"

This is a pretty big attack on the First Amendment. And an encroachment on universities' powers to decide what protests to allow and who to expel.....
We need to talk about Trump’s threat to defund universities unless they arrest and expel protesters.

We’re watching classic fascistic institutional capture in real time and if this continues unabated we’re going to look up and live in a world without escape. The time to fight is now.

Lawfare’s Ben Wittes makes the case that it’s not as easy for Trump to simply defy the court (& get away with). Judges, whose judicial rulings have been spurned, may still have recourse to enforce the law against lesser actors of corruption. This might reduce blood pressure

Find your local disability rights organization and send them something. Also, find your local mutual aid groups. Write to your elected representatives.
Home and Community-Based Services waivers help disabled people stay out of institutions. For @motherjones.com, I reported on how disabled people's independence is threatened by attacks on Medicaid that fund HCBS waivers (and others). www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Trump's war on Medicaid will institutionalize millions of people
The GOP wants to fund billionaire tax cuts—and let disabled Americans pay the price.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

The U.S. has two tsunami warning centers, both operated by NOAA. Employees were terminated from these centers today. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center covers Hawaiʻi, and now it is less safe to be near the beach.

One of the people fired from NOAA today is the director of the Ocean Acidification Program. That program also leads the U.S. government's effort on marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR). The destruction of American science is incomprehensible.
