Trump’s net worth: $2.4B in 2024 to $6.3B now, riding a crypto empire he legally shouldn’t even be running. Sen. Dan Sullivan turned $3M into $8.29M in stock trades while in office. Nick Begich just stays quiet and keeps cashing the checks. That’s not winning for you. That’s winning OFF you. 💰🧾

This opening of the 1619 Project has long been the most ringing sentence for me about this country, its founding, and its founding document. Its truth could apply to everyone who sought to broaden and deepen equality and rights.

Reporting on the SCOTUS birthright case doesn't reflect how alarming it is that the ruling was so close. It also glosses over the danger of a Roberts Court that attacks voting rights, minority protections, and campaign finance laws — all while making it easier for corporations to poison us. Hello?

As an American, there are always disappointments to register and arguments to engage; amid the chaos of our battered, monied attempt at self-governance, dissent is constant. But this feeling of being utterly ashamed of America and embarrassed to the core by its president is new, raw and unnerving.

I’ve started using the term “ethnic cleansing campaign” to describe the ICE occupation here in Minnesota. This is deliberate because the reality on the ground is that, at a given moment, any non-white person can be kidnapped by masked federal paramilitaries regardless of their constitutional rights.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.
