Powerful story about the mistreatment of the Haitian immigrants in my hometown of Springfield, Ohio. We can’t look away from this
Trump and MAGA have waged a campaign of racist lies and fear on Springfield, Ohio’s Haitian community — from ICE raids to the president’s destruction of Temporary Protected Status (TPS). @swin24.bsky.social reports on the crackdown that is unlike anything else. Read now: zeteo.com/p/trump-spri...

It's hard to avoid recalling this passage from the English historian Tony Judt:
Most incredible about this is that IU-Bloomington has long been the no. 1 university in the world for teaching Asian languages and cultures, with many programs found nowhere else. They're slashing many of IU-B's most distinctive programs with zero thought or debate. They probably don't even know.

By the hour, Donald Trump makes it clearer he is the most dangerous political leader in our history, the greatest threat America faces.
Sending the National Guard into LA, sending masked thugs into US cities, sending tanks to parade through DC next weekend--they are all ominous signs about the kind of country our wannabe dictator is working towards. There's much worse to come. www.thedailybeast.com/donald-trump...

Bondi on Boasberg: "Those inmates, those violent gang members, those violent alien enemies will remain in El Salvador. He cannot get them back, so his jurisdiction is over ... going forward, these terrorists better look out."

Reminder: If they can lie that they're violent and disappear them, they can lie that you're violent and disappear you.

“He’s been talking about it…” Saying the same half-cocked, uninformed, off-the-fly things in 2025 he said in 1985. And it shows.
Lutnick: "Let Donald Trump run the global economy. He's knows what he's doing. He's been talking about it for 35 years. You gotta trust Donald Trump in the White House ... it's broken. Let him fix it ... Let Donald Trump fix the American economy."

Every night @maddow.msnbc.com has a first segment that runs through protests and town halls held in last 24 hrs and if you are feeling like nobody is feeling like you feel or you don’t know what to do: start by watching these and then find your people in your area. They are everywhere.
One of the most striking and consistent threads in Trump’s political career has been his utter contempt for military veterans. What they’re doing to the VA is shameful. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/22/u...

"If someone legally in the United States can be grabbed from his home for engaging in constitutionally protected political activity, we are in a drastically different country from the one we inhabited before," writes our columnist Michelle Goldberg.

“Breaking the law” is so much more accurate and way quicker to say!
President Trump has opened the throttle on blowing through apparent legal limits, often with no clear public explanation for how their actions could be consistent with the rule of law. Here are some examples of the administration’s defiance of statutes. nyti.ms/4aKnKRP

This is insane. Apartheid Clyde is trying to live out his white supremacist fever dreams
Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”
Ethnic cleansing shamelessly encouraged by the United States President.
Van Hollen: "He just said that it will be US policy to forcibly displace 2 million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip. That is ethnic cleansing by another name. He said the US would then own the Gaza Strip and we would develop it and other countries would take these Palestinians."
All Mitch had to do was summon up a conviction in DJT’s impeachment after he encouraged a fucking insurrection. We would have been done with DJT forever.
Aside from Donald, the person i despise most in this world is Mitch McConnell. Donald Trump is president because of this asshole... McConnell solely could have kept him out of the white house. I hate him
