Mass resignation marks a new kind of defiance in the second Trump era
The Trump team has rarely if ever faced such resistance from within the government, a move that may pave the way for further defiance.

At least $12 *trillion* from global oligarchs is hidden offshore in secret tax havens worldwide. And it is headquartered right here in the USA.

Instead of cutting lifesaving programs like the VA, Medicaid, and food stamps, we should be cracking down on tax havens for the ultra-rich.

47,000+ Palestinians killed. 111,000 injured.

Trump’s response? Forcibly expel Palestinians to make Gaza “a real estate development for the future. A beautiful piece of land.” 

No. Gaza must be rebuilt for the Palestinian people, not billionaire tourists.

Donald Trump's second term instantly kicked off with an onslaught of cruel and sometimes unconstitutional orders.

These orders take aim at a long list of perceived enemies: trans families, immigrants, Democrats, and so forth.

Here's who is on the target list—and how they plan on fighting back.

Just finished reading @peterbeinart.bsky.social new book. I feel like buying 50 copies and just handing them out for free at my synagogue. It’s such an important contribution to how Jewish life and self-understanding needs to change. I can’t recommend it more highly.

I’m so tired of them. I’m tired of their lies. I’m tired of their disgusting amorality. I’m tired of their faces, their voices, their smirks. I’m tired of their inability to say — let alone do — even one thing remotely kind or humble or appropriate, ever. So tired.

I absolutely love how quickly Canadians started placing signs in their businesses to discourage customers from buying any American products and I also love how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau specifically targeted Red States in retaliation. I love you Canada, I’m rooting for you.

Questions for the Canadians out there. There seemed to be a pro Trump conservative movement that dragged down Trudeau.

Is that movement getting stronger or weaker ?
