We Are Witnessing the Self-Immolation of a Superpower With Donald Trump’s actions in Greenland, Minneapolis, and Venezuela, a foreign enemy could not invent a better chain of events to wreck the standing of the United States.

"Annexing Greenland is as unpopular with Americans as almost anything ever polled—just 17 percent of Americans support [it] and an astounding 4 percent think it’s a good idea for America to take Greenland by military force. To put that in context.. about 13 percent of Americans believe in Bigfoot."

If we want New York City to continue to be the theater capital of the world, workers need dignity and respect.

In Times Square today, I stood with the actors, stage managers and musicians of @actorsequity.bsky.social as they begin bargaining to say: America’s unions are with you!

Pritzker: It’s time for us to be done with optimism about their motives. Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research… Autistic kids and adults who are loving contributors to our society don’t deserve to be stigmatized by a weird nepo baby who once stashed a dead bear in his car. Our military service members don’t deserve to be told by a washed-up Fox TV commentator, who drank too much before being appointed Secretary of Defense, that they can’t serve their country simply because they are Black, gay, or a woman.

Van Hollen denied entry to CECOT, notorious El Salvador prison where Abrego Garcia is illegally held YouTube video by Senator Chris Van Hollen

We were just denied entry into CECOT — the notorious prison in El Salvador where Mr. Abrego Garcia is being illegally held.

We were there for one simple reason: to check on his well-being, which his family and lawyers have not been allowed to do. We won’t stop fighting.

Law Firms Made Deals With Trump. Now He Wants More From Them. To avoid retribution, big firms agreed to provide free legal services for uncontroversial causes. To the White House, that could mean negotiating trade deals — or even defending the president and his ...

So the nation's * best [most expensive] law firms negotiated with Trump with less skill than a 5 yo might negotiate the sale of a lemonade stand.

If Trump can deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a prison in El Salvador with ZERO due process and then DEFY a 9-0 Supreme Court order to facilitate bringing him home, who’s next?

This threatens the rights and freedoms of everyone in the United States.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

Mr. Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted by the Trump Admin and, by their own admission, wrongly deported to El Salvador. He shouldn’t have to spend another second away from his family.

I'm flying to El Salvador tomorrow morning to check on his condition and discuss his return.

The great thing about fighting back against this stuff is that if you end up losing anyway you get the same outcome you’d have gotten from complying but you don’t have to fucking hate yourself too.

Our local manufacturing capacity is increasing. We’ve produced a similar but sturdier Cybertruck, named the Bergerblock (Left Photo.)

We’ve also produced a facsimile of the humans we expect to purchase our Bergerblocks. Our artisan designer named it “Fragilis Masculinis” which is Latin, we think.

New York — Actors’ Equity Association, the national union representing more than 51,000 professional performers and stage managers working in live theatre, released the following statement from Executive Director Al Vincent, Jr. in response to the executive order “Exclusions from the Federal Labor-Management Relations Program,” issued last night by President Trump:

“Donald Trump has now taken direct aim at working people by attacking the collective bargaining rights of our federal workforce in what’s being called the largest union-busting act of our lifetime, if not in history.

The workers targeted by this executive order are not only the indispensable pulse that keeps our country running, they are our friends, neighbors and colleagues. They’ve been on the front line of protecting our democracy, and their lawsuits against this administration have placed them in the crosshairs of political retribution."
