"We call on the world to stop the injustice & stop the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people," says Oscar winner Basel Adra to applause from the audience. 'No Other Land' just won the Best Documentary Oscar. Also a fantastic speech from fellow winner Yuval Abraham on "ethnic supremacy".

The Most Embarrassing Person in Washington is... The front-runners change hourly, almost kaleidoscopically, as charlatans, freaks, morons, and the generally absurd elbow one another aside in our ongoing competition of self-humiliation. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

In a blatantly unconstitutional power grab, Trump is freezing funding for life-saving programs like Medicaid, food and housing assistance, childcare grants, and school meals — even though that funding was already approved by Congress.

Everything is extremely chaotic but the best info we have so far suggests that Trump’s “stop funding” EO would cover: Medicaid ESSA funds IDEA Snap School meals WIC Head start grants Child care block grants Pell grants Student loans Higher Ed grants Housing vouchers CTE Devastating beyond words.

Last week it got down to -35° in International Falls. Yet Donald Trump appears to have just halted the bipartisan program that keeps folks’ heat on through the winter. LIHEAP isn’t the *woke agenda.* It’s life or death for many Minnesotans.

80% of funding from the IRA goes to GOP districts—this is just one example. Congress passed this funding. It’s not Trump’s to stop on a whim. This is a violation of the law and basic decency. He will put people out of work & stop programs that help pay their bills. www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

Congress approved these investments and they are not optional, they are the law. These grants help communities in red states and blue states and support families, help parents raise kids, and lead to stronger communities. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

No number of pardons or lies will change what happened on January 6. Donald Trump can’t change history. It was domestic terrorism, it was treason, plain and simple.

You may think firing federal employees is a DC problem but the person who delivers your mail is a federal employee. 85% of federal employees live outside the DC metro. In many places, they are around 10% or more of the local workforce. #giftlink www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

See where federal workers live in the U.S.

As a government shutdown looms, see where U.S. federal employees live. Only 15 percent of the 2.19 million federal employees work in the Washington metro area.

(Besides friends) Nature is my salvation in the scorched earth of our post-election world. Here it is still quick and easy to find hope and joy.
