I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.

The Pentagon Threatened Pope Leo XIV’s Ambassador With the Avignon Papacy
The Free Press has documented a closed-door Pentagon meeting in which a senior Trump official lectured Pope Leo XIV’s ambassador on American military supremacy.

Miles Taylor @MilesTaylorUSA The Trump administration is quietly trying to build medical dossiers on all federal employees. Their prescriptions. Therapy appointments. Abortion records. For millions of people (and their families). They won’t say how they’ll use it. But I can venture a guess. Quote CBS News @CBSNews · 9h The Office of Personnel Management is asking insurers that cover federal employees and retirees to hand over details about their medical visits, their pharmacy claims, and more. https://cbsn.ws/4tBfdJ7
This seems bad.
Profoundly true but sadly moot.
One good use of the supposed two-week ceasefire is to get back to talking about the Epstein files
I try to avoid watching Hegseth, because I hate that our secretary of defense is such an embarrassment. But I had an interview scheduled at the time of his remarks this morning, which the station carried before coming to me. The juvenile braggadocio, the brazen lying, the unctuous piety--sickening.
The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion.
In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose 29%.

The White House Correspondents Association is planning to "honor" Trump at its dinner three weeks from now.
No way.
It was egregious before. Now it's obscene.
A madman surrounded by cowards and enablers
Ditto. I feel like I've been swimming in molasses emotionally and intellectually. The cognitive dissonance of the past decade has been brutal.
The bitter truth of our world is that unless and until enough GOP in House and Senate say to Trump, as GOP said to Nixon, ‘Enough, you’re done,’ he cannot be checked right now.
His permitted corruption, violence, desecration is their crime.
This is not foreign policy, it’s a deranged mad man threatening to wipe out an entire country.
It's past time. The 25th Amendment must be invoked.
One of the funniest Cartoons I've seen in a while. Lol 🤣 Enjoy
Annoying dork Elon Musk made it deeply uncool to get a thrill from space travel.
Thank you, NASA, for fixing that with Artemis II.
We won't last 33 more months of this.
This must stop.
We must make it stop.
Wait one damn minute.
Steve Hilton has an endorsement from Charlie Kirk on his TikTok page.
But the “endorsement” is an AI video… posted by Hilton after Charlie Kirk died.
We don’t need a fact check for this one. This is just weird AF!
Given Trump’s Easter threats to carry out new war crimes in Iran, we should think one or two steps ahead about a coup attempt connected to the war. And then deter it. (1/17)
“Donald Trump appears disposed to allow the most successful political-military alliance in modern history to be destroyed. Vladimir Putin could not be happier…That would be a true tragedy for Europe and, indeed, for the United States.”

“The simple fact is that we have a president who is irresponsible, reckless, and indeed unhinged. And he’s all the more dangerous because he is unconstrained by both his subordinates in the executive branch or by Congress.”

I hope this is what's happening. On the other hand, Trump is fucking insane and everyone who supports him is actively evil, so who knows if he just wants to say, "Fuck it" and play God.
Precisely. That's one reason this is so terrible.
“You starve your public schools to feed your private schools and charter schools,” said one superintendent about the state’s efforts to grow charter schools. “Our foundation was set up for a free and appropriate education for all kids. All kids!”

The Iran war is destroying US hegemony.
Iran is using this moment to dismantle a key pillar of US power — the petrodollar.
For the last 50 years nearly all oil has been purchased in dollars. But Iran and China are starting to kill off this pillar of the US empire.

Of all things that keep me up at night, this one is especially troubling. Second term Trump has removed every individual who would block crazy orders, or try to tell him no. Now imagine him growing increasingly unhinged with dementia, ordering even more insane things. With no one trying to stop him
Lawmakers introduced a whopper of a bill that would ban nearly all abortions, explicitly outlaw self-managed abortion, make it a felony to provide abortion-inducing drugs to a pregnant person, designate mifepristone and misoprostol as controlled substances, and more.
Catch up on the latest news:
I've warned for years that Republicans planned to reroute federal family planning dollars to crisis pregnancy centers—groups that won't even talk about birth control.
I re-upped that prediction just last week. A day later, this Politico piece dropped.
