The fact that our leaders can’t get together and say “hey, literally everyone (including the leaders at these companies!!) want this to happen more slowly so how about…you can’t build an AI data center unless it meets requirements including zero CO2” is embarrassing.

Reminder Virginia has 3 more referendums on the November ballot Adding language to Virginia constitution: - Protect right to abortion - Remove ban on Same Sex marriage - Restore voting rights to those convicted of felonies once they serve their sentence Expect all 3 to pass

ICE has violated almost 100 court orders. Let me say that another way. 100 times ICE was caught brazenly ignoring the law. 100 times a court told them to immediately stop. And 100 times they ignored the order. That's an out-of-control agency that shouldn't get another dime.

It is hard to capture the crowds and energy in just a few pictures, but here are a few from the #nokings march from Arlington into DC on Saturday.

I had a great day celebrating #nokings! I took the Metro for the march from Arlington National Cemetery to DC at 10:00, came back out for the @wofava.bsky.social Hands Across Arlington at 1:00, then broke out my Unicorn costume to join up with @hrindivisible.bsky.social.

It should make Republicans *very* nervous to compare the listless unattendance of conservatives at CPAC this week with the enthusiastic, overwhelming attendance of liberals at #NoKings events a day later.

The NYT says today’s #NoKings protests had “no shortage of skeptics,” and then quoted exactly one of those skeptics: The chairman of the Ole Miss College Republicans (as of 2025.) But of course, the Times doesn’t ID him as such. He’s just a Concerned Youth.

The marches had no shortage of skeptics.
In Oxford, Miss,, Cass Rutledge, a first-year law student at the University of Mississippi, walked through the No Kings protest and around the town square on Saturday and questioned why people thought Mr. Trump was acting like a king.
"He is, you know, a duly elected president who won the popular vote and the electoral college in a landslide," Mr. Rutledge said.
"And so I'm a little bit confused on how he's acting differently than any other president."
He pointed to the stalemate in Congress over the SAVE America Act, the Republican-driven bill to tighten voter identification and registration rules, which Democrats have called an attempt to suppress turnout based on false claims of voting fraud. Mr. Rutledge said that Mr.
Trump was "going through the process" to try to get the legislation passed.

Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is about—we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.

Some good thoughts for those of us that seem overwhelmed by the flood from the Trump administration. What I tell myself: "It is better to do a few things, even if they seem small, than to do nothing." paultshattuck.substack.com/p/of-course-...

Of Course You're Exhausted. You're Being Targeted.

Your overwhelm is part of Team Trump’s strategy. Here's how to stop doing their work for them and build our capacity for shared civic resilience.

I am not sure how crazy I am about dividing up NoVA so much (look at those slivers in Fairfax County!) but winning back the House is a critical step to bringing sanity back to the US government...and saving my sanity!!

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall. But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

Quick iconic comic cover edit to laud Ilhan Omar.

Captain America comic #1 with an edit to place a caricature of Ilhan Omar over Cap so she is punching Hitler instead of Cap. The comic masthead has also been changed to her name.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting
"They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head."

"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries.
"We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

It is hard to sleep thinking that I now live in a country that both kidnaps foreign leaders in the middle of the night in an attempt to plunder their country's resources and deploys masked federal agents to US cities to murder peaceful protesters in the middle of the day.
