Among the 5 ways to fight fascism is to peel off enough Members of Congress to hold up Trump's agenda. 3 signs on the front page of the Politico that's beginning to happen consistently. The tariff one will mean that Dems can force a vote on the Canada tariffs tomorrow.

Trump is demanding $10 billion because a contractor (not an IRS employee) leaked some of his data. OK, then. It seems only fair that each of the 300,000,000+ Americans whose personal tax and Social Security data was leaked by DOGE receive the same renumeration. That's $300,000,000,000,000+.

Counsel for civil rights lawyer Nekima Levy Armstrong, lead defendant in the St. Paul church protest case, notified the court of the White House’s deepfake image of his client. It’s evidence the government’s “nakedly obvious bad faith.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The Whitehouse subsequently posted on Twitter an altered photo of Ms. Levy-Armstrong being arrested to make it falsely appear that she was crying and making her face darker. …  The government's fourteen page Indictment makes clear that the government is persecuting Ms. Levy-Armstrong and her co-defendants by attempting to turn a non-violent political protest directed at a federal government official into a federal felony
case

Ms. Levy-Armstrong respectfully requests that the Court fully consider the release conditions of her co-defendants, her own irreproachable background and status in the community, the lack of any violence associated with the incident underlying the Indictment, and the government's nakedly obvious bad faith.
