Trump has issued 1500+ pardons and counting…a who’s who of drug kingpins, crypto scammers, violent insurrectionists, terrorism financiers & corrupt politicians.

In Trump’s oligarchy, the rich and powerful can pay their way to reside above the law.

Millions of people marching is a sign that what trump is doing is wildly unpopular and authoritarians need some kind of public buy in, in order to completely dissolve all of our rights and freedoms. Republicans won’t act as the guard rail, the Supreme Court won’t act as the guard rail….

A week after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, the U.S. saw journalists fired, comedians silenced, military speech policed, and a study on far‑right terror deleted. Amid the crackdown, activists and pro‑democracy outlets fought back. #4R

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.

But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

So.

It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year.

I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

I don’t know why this is hard for folks to understand. The layoffs aren’t just about probationary employees. They are going beyond that. It won’t stop. It’s all about making agencies non-functional.

I wrote about how Congress has turned into a senior center.

How many AOCs are never elected because 80-year-olds refuse to step down?

How many young lawmakers don’t acquire leadership roles — and miss out on years of experience — because seniority is prized above anything else?
