The neo-Nazi party made huge gains in the German elections thanks to the backing of the world‘s biggest billionaire and most prominent publicizer of white nationalist conspiracies on the planet. Good thing there’s no comparable relationship in the US for our media to explore.

I clipped this. It’s worth listening to in full. I’m thrilled Bouie brought up polls about maintained support for DEI from 2025. I’m looking at Pew polling about BLM from the same time frame and triple checked it because public support also hasnt declined to the degree some discourse would suggest

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

"Put simply, 'child care or war' is a false choice. The U.S. has the money to pay for child care, even if we are also funding a costly, unpopular and arguably unconstitutional war. That money is just stuck in the wrong hands." My latest for @ms.now : www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

Trump says the U.S. cannot afford child care in wartime. History says otherwise.
The U.S. government did “take care of day care” once – and used the defense budget to pay the bill.

I’m alive today because a doctor with more than four decades of experience treating Black patients recognized my symptoms from a very small number of cases he’d seen in his career. This may seem quaint in light of big data and AI, but if it’s your life at stake you’d think (very) differently.

Why did I think they simply canceled all of them. Nope it was discriminatory
As evidence, the filing notes a list Mr. Fox compiled of what he called the "craziest" and "other bad" grants, which he planned to highlight on DOGE's X account. He used three dozen keywords, including
"L.G.B.T.Q.""BIPOC," "tribal, "ethnicity,"
"gender," "equality," "immigration
"citizenship" and "melting pot." (A majority of the two dozen grants deemed "craziest" related to L.G.B.T.Q. subjects.)
In the deposition, Mr. Fox said the list reflected his "subjective" judgment about whether a grant might be out of line with Mr. Trump's executive order.
"Crazy' is one way of saying it," he said.
"Most incriminating' is another way."

Last year, this guy (left) from DOGE used ChatGPT to find NEH grants that were too “DEI” for Trump, and canceled them, including mine, as shown by the letter I received last April (right). Huge new NYT article on the back story link below
Picture of DOGE guy Nate CavanaughScreenshot of my DOGE letter “Dr. Joseph Rezek
Dear NEH Grantee,
This letter provides notice that the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) is terminating your federal grant (Grant Application No. FEL29509824) effective April 3, 2025, in accordance with the termination clause in your Grant Agreement.
Your grant no longer effectuates the agency's needs and priorities and conditions of the Grant
Agreement and is subject to termination due to several reasonable causes, as outlined in 2CFR§200.340.
For instance, NEH has reasonable cause to terminate your grant in light of the fact that the NEH is repurposing its funding allocations in a new direction in furtherance of the President's agenda. The President's February 19, 2025 executive order mandates that the NEH eliminate all non-statutorily required activities and functions. See Commencing the Reduction of the Federal Bureaucracy, E.O. 14217 (Feb. 19, 2025). Your grant's immediate termination is necessary to safeguard the interests of the federal government, including its fiscal priorities. Any objections or appeals to this termination will be managed in strict accordance with the President's Executive Orders,

The Trump admin keeps insisting that a lot of the accusations in the Epstein Files were baseless, and surely some were. But the FBI held FOUR different interviews with one of Trump's accusers and then SIX more with another accuser, which suggests the agents thought *these* women were on the level.

How will the U.S. pay back the illegal tariffs? Every reporter should reference this and ask Trump exactly how much money is on “the tariff shelf.” Cut ‘em a check. The “tariff shelf” is among the more unhinged of Trump’s many unhinged statements on his illegal tariffs.
