We have failed to fight forever wars successfully since Vietnam. Not Afghanistan. Not Iraq. And Iran's much larger and with a larger population than those other countries combined. This is a completely avoidable disaster.

Real insane part of this clip is Hassett saying in the beginning that NY Fed researchers “should be disciplined” for…writing an economics paper that comes to a conclusion the president dislikes? A conclusion that matches the vast majority of economic evidence on tariffs? Nuts

Trump & his cult are on a mission to destroy U.S. science leadership: slashing research grants, strangling the science workforce — threatening a brain drain — & trying to gut federal science agencies. The graphics in this piece are jarring. We must stop them & California must lead. 🧵

i think this is exactly right. fascism is the Death Drive as ideology. it's why the catastrophic end of the Nazi Party does not deter people from worshipping Nazis. that the Nazis destroyed Germany along with the rest of Europe is part of the appeal.

The DOJ just took down pages with detailed descriptions of Trump engaged in child rape and other pedophilia. We don't know if they have been corroborated, but we already know this DOJ will deny everything on behalf of their client.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents. Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center. Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

Illustration like that from a Richard Scarry kids' book, but about ICE terror raids. One of the captions says "Kavanaugh stop," for the cruel and discriminatory practice that Brett K. authorized.

They literally always accuse protesters of being paid because 1) it shifts the terrain of the debate and 2) it reassures their base that no one legitimately holds a contrary position. They take comfort in thinking that anyone who disagrees with Trump is either brainwashed or a cynic.

The IRS enforcement and audit capacity is greatly reduced, enabling more tax evasion and avoidance, but Trumpworld is making it easier to investigate left-leaning groups antithetical to Trump's 4Cs - criminality, cruelty, corruption, and chaos. This opens door for even more IRS politicization.

ICE are domestic terrorists who are unconstrained by the rule of law or the Constitution. They are drunk on their own power and empowered by the criminally corrupt Trump regime. Make no mistake - these are fucking fascists harming American citizens who have every right to be there.

I think it likely that Good was terrified when Goon 2 started breaking into her car. I think Ross, BECAUSE OF THE RECENT EVENT (where he also broke the rules) may have feared for his safety. But ALL OF THIS--all of it--arises out of rules of engagement that come from the White House.

It's also a dereliction to present fabrications as legitimate opinions worthy of debate. I don't think the vaunted news/opinion barrier makes any difference here. Opinion pages have never been unbounded or unedited. Outright lies are not important to hear or share and cannot meaningfully be debated.

Much of the opposition was about tourism; as a sometimes visitor to NYC, the place is so much nicer with less traffic. I am more prone to visit (and to linger and buy stuff) when I don't have to constantly risk a painful death from gridlocked cars in crosswalks jockeying for position.
