NEW: The ICE killing of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, the Venezuela attack, the new White House Jan. 6 website—these each convey a powerful & unsettling message from Trump, Miller, and their crew: Violence is ours to use, at home and abroad, to get what we want. Beware.

Please read and share.
The Trump doctrine: Violence is us
The message is clear—be afraid.

When the first two agents approached, they gave her contradictory commands. One said something to the effect of "move your vehicle" while the other said "stop." The second agent is the one who went for her door.

The agents created confusion and then killed her for it.

“One of the ICE agents tried to rip her door open, and another one got in front of the vehicle and then shouted, ‘Stop!’ before firing three times within a second of saying, ‘Stop.’”

Never forget this: The forces undermining our democracy, rigging our economy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. We must keep fighting in 2026 and beyond.

We don’t spend enough time discussing how the entire MAGA movement is kept afloat by the constant threats of stochastic terrorism orchestrated by the president of the United States.

Congress, the courts, much of the media … all kept in line by the mob boss and his army of anonymous goons.

If there's one thing the mainstream news media love to overlook, it's the impact of the mainstream news media. The petite Tea Party in all its elite-backed astroturfiness was hailed like a sacred comet; the historically huge No Kings was played down by the NY Times, among other publications.
The absence of young people in protests against Mr. Trump’s authoritarianism matters, and not just for crowd counts. The No Kings protesters look like, and in many cases are, the same people who protested during Mr. Trump’s first term in office. But older people with signs are old news in the attention economy. As a result, the No Kings protests have had less effect on our politics than, say, the smaller Tea Party protests during Barack Obama’s first months as president, which helped spark a backlash before the 2010 midterm elections. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/24/opinion/boomers-protest-trump-gen-z.html?unlocked_article_code=1.3k8.ui6r.Ag1dMthOacrp&smid=url-share

The Ken Burns documentary The American Revolution premiered last night on PBS. I was (and am) so excited to see how it unfolds, but here are just a few brief thoughts after watching episode one.

This 15-story data tower in the heart of the Amazon collects vital climate data that is shared with Americans in California and across the country.

The Trump Administration can ignore reality and worsen the climate crisis, but California will never stop fighting for our future.

At 16 and 17 years old, Sam and Ben Luhmann for the past two months have made it their mission to follow, investigate and capture federal immigration activity across the Chicago area.
West Chicago brothers are on the front lines against ‘Operation Midway Blitz.’ And they’re only teenagers.
The wave of youth activists who have been galvanized into action by “Operation Midway Blitz” follow a long tradition paved around the world by young activists.

Dreamers were once obvious candidates for a path to citizenship. Now, they’re getting picked up, detained, and set for potential deportation.
Then they came for the Dreamers
Immigrants brought here as children were told they wouldn’t be deported. Now, they’re being targeted anyway.

Approaching the 3rd hour of my flight delay. I sure miss Pete Buttigieg, and a Congress that worked together (yes, I'm old enough to remember that). Thank you TSA and Air Traffic Controllers who are working w/out pay.

I have somehow never read Breakfast of Champions and holy hell in three pages Vonnegut sums it all up - colonialism, racism, income inequality, and a guy who owns a car dealership who reads a scifi novel and takes away the wrong idea
The teachers told the children that this was when their continent was discovered by human beings. Actually, millions of human beings were already living full and imaginative lives on the continent in 1492. That was simply the year in which sea pirates began to cheat and rob and kill them. Actually, the sea pirates who had the most to do with the creation of the new government owned human slaves. They used human beings for machinery, and, even after slavery was eliminated, because it was so embarrassing, they and their descendants continued to think of ordinary human beings as machines. • The sea pirates were white. The people who were already on the continent when the pirates arrived were copper-colored. When slavery was introduced onto the continent, the slaves were black. Color was everything. tonster. Here was the core of the bad ideas which Trout gave to Dwayne: Everybody on Earth was a robot, with one exception-Dwayne Hoover. Of all the creatures in the Universe, only Dwayne was thinking and feeling and worrying and planning and so on. Nobody else knew what pain was. Nobody else had any choices to make. Everybody else was a fully automatic machine, whose purpose was to stimulate Dwayne. Dwayne was a new type of creature being tested by the Creator of the Universe. Only Dwayne Hoover had free will. Trout did not expect to be believed. He put the bad ideas into a science-fiction novel, and that was where Dwayne found them. The book wasn't addressed to Dwayne alone. Trout had never heard of Dwayne when he wrote it. It was addressed to anybody who happened to open it up. It said to simply anybody, in effect, "Hey-guess what: You're the only creature with free will. How does that make you feel?" And so on. It was a tour de force. It was a jeu d'esprit. But it was mind poison to Dwayne.

POTUS has nothing on his public schedule today until phoning it in to a couple of tele-rallies in NJ & VA. At 7pm. Recovering from a long 3 day weekend in Palm Beach while 42M Americans go to work & school without SNAP benefits. USA is being destroyed by a lazy, spoiled predator.
