Hey, SANTA MONICA area people, join me for a TRUMP MUST GO! overpass protest at the Cloverfield overpass, over the 10 Freeway in Santa Monica, because TRUMP MUST GO!

We can expect the government to do exactly that, proceed with disenrolling voters and creating damage they can’t be undone before elections

Yes, all remedies are invented at some time or another. But I see the West Virginia version of MQD as an exercise of political discretion than as a legal rule, so inventing a new remedy to articulate it cannot be justified. yalelawjournal.org/essay/the-bi...

We've released our Q1 2026 Natural Catastrophe & Climate Report. A very active start to the year for societal impacts from anomalous weather / climate events, but this did not translate to abnormal financial loss costs:

John Roberts' wife is not the only Supreme Court spouse to shake down people with business before the court to give bribes. Ginni Thomas has a "consulting firm" (AKA a PO Box for checks) to funnel money to Clarence. #Corruption

Opposing white supremacy is a crime in Trump’s America.

This feels a lot like southern states persecuting the NAACP during Jim Crow.

The military was an infection vector in the Spanish flu pandemic that killed 50 million people.

Warsh may be a reasonable guy and capable economist just playing a role here. But if integrity and independence are qualities we value in a Fed Chief, he does not have them.

Every nominee who dodges this question tells us that they have no meaningful commitment to American democracy.

Seems he implied ‘yes’ by saying he will sell them, but only if confirmed, and 90 days later, and wont disclose method of liquidation that would avoid conflict of interest…

Warren: "Why try to end independence of the Fed? Bc Trump's economic failures are causing him political problems, he wants the Fed to artificially juice the economy Having a sock puppet in charge of the Fed would also give the president access to the Fed's powerful authorities to enrich himself"

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

They drew the maps. They rigged the districts. They counted on us staying home. We didn't. Virginia has a once-in-a-generation chance to take the power of redistricting out of politicians' hands and put it back where it belongs: with the people! #VoteYesVirginiaToday

How the Trump administration plans to interfere with the 2026 elections 2026 will be different from any election in American history. The Trump administration is wielding the full power of the government against our own elections.

This is part of the Administration's plan to DECEIVE voters about the trustworthiness of election systems, DISRUPT the smooth operation of those systems, and use the ensuing chaos to DENY election outcomes that they don’t like. Read more here:

Incredibly proud to be working on this case; equally proud that @protectdemocracy.org is leading the fight against DOJ's illegal access to sensitive and private voter information. This is part of the plan to disrupt the upcoming election, and it's critical that we fight back.

Palantir's Manifesto Is as Subtle as a MAGA Hat Palantir's 22-point manifesto is nonsense, writes Dave Karpf. But it at least it is short enough to be clarifying, he says.

So much of Silicon Valley has reached the conclusion that there is money to be made from American authoritarianism, writes Dave Karpf. With its ‘manifesto,’ Palantir wants to remind you that it reached that conclusion first, he says.

Reminder that analysts thought there was a deal to be struck with North Korea in 2017-2018, not to denuclearize (they won't), but to count/verify nukes, stabilize situation. Trump didn't order any diplomatic work for that and instead did a photo op with Kim.

His diplomacy and his deals are fake.

With things like contagious illnesses, the implications of “personal” choices aren’t limited to the individual who makes the choice

"The common sense of mankind demands that law shall not stop with the punishment of petty crimes... It must also reach men who possess themselves of great power and make deliberate and concerted use of it to set in motion evils which leave no home in the world untouched." —Robert Jackson, Nuremberg

people split hairs about the genocide classification all the time, but Trump unambiguously wrote down his intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national group, and then he broadcast it out

The more I think about it, the more I am pretty confident that "The Pope is weak on crime," is going to go down in history as one of the most batshit things any President has ever written. There is just so much stupidity wrapped into six words.

Palantir manifesto described as ‘ramblings of a supervillain’ amid UK contract fears Alarm caused by posts of Alex Karp, tech firm’s CEO, championing US military dominance and of AI weapons

“…Ramblings of a supervillain…”

Get them out of our government and get our national security and personal data out if their servers. They could become the evil infrastructure depicted in scifi films.
