Historians of the future: Rest assured, millions of us know all this in real time. We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends. trib.al/0islLh9

Thank God for Rachel Maddow. If not for her inspiration, journalistic integrity, and masterful, historical storytelling, I don’t know that I could breathe during this moment. She makes coping amidst chaos possible. And Lawrence O’Donnell too!

Fantastic and necessary piece from @hakeemjefferson.bsky.social (deleted earlier post because typo) stanforddaily.com/2025/04/22/w...
Here’s the truth: White Americans — white men especially — who didn’t need to compete against a broad-based pool because of gender and racial discrimination; who have long enjoyed access to neighborhoods and networks, jobs, clubs, and government programs that systematically excluded others; and who continue to enjoy the presumption of expertise even when they are far outside their depth — have long been the original beneficiaries of race and gender-based affirmative action in this country.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

So, the Trump admin was able to bring astronauts stuck in space back down to earth, but it won’t lift a finger to bring a Maryland dad they “oopsie” imprisoned in a gulag back from El Salvador? Do I have that just about right?

With the Insurrection Act looming, now is the time to learn how it might unfold and the strategic ways to respond.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Light green background with red text reads “March 22 rally and learn. To protect National parks.  Saturday at noon at a National park near you.” Three geometric blue birds surround the text. Light green background with read text that reads “Ranger fact: irruption birds, like these redpolls, are birds that move unpredictably. As needed, they will gather in large flocks and work together.” Two blue geometric birds frame the text, one above and one below.
