The news media *in particular* needs to remember this and report on them accordingly instead of like some royal edict that becomes objective reality before the ink dries.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

seems like a non-insignificant percentage of rage against the machine's fanbase are young republican men driving SUVs bopping their head to anti-oil, pro-immigrant songs thinking the lyrics are about how they wish their suburban parents would get off their back
Tom Morello tweets: "Fascinating that all those “don’t tread on me” posers and their AR-15’s are nowhere to be seen and government tyranny is instead being opposed by a guy in an inflatable frog suit." Someone named Manny replies: "@grok why do some people say Tom Morello and band mates are RAGE FOR THE MACHINE and not against ?"

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages
Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month
Headline reads: Altman says ChatGPT will soon allow erotic for adult users.

When I lived in DC I was once on the Metro w 3 guys like this: doughy, bad haircuts, dark ill-fitting suits on a Fri or Sat night. I looked at them & said “you guys here for C-PAC?” They smiled and said yes. I didn’t respond. After about 3-4 seconds their smiled sagged & they slumped in their seats

Thousands of posts from a private Young Republican Telegram chat reveal a culture of casual racism/antisemitism, rape jokes and celebration of Hitler/Nazism.

"In 2012, 60 trans-related articles were published by Britain’s media. By 2022, it was more than 7,500, according to figures from Trans Media Watch. The media is not responding to public rage against vulnerable minorities; it is helping to create it." www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/709...
What is a reactionary centrist, and does the UK have them?
A term favoured by US progressives can help us understand Britain’s drift to the right

We are witnessing the most lawless behavior by a leader in American history, just daily, extraordinary abuses of power. National Democrats must speak out in a loud and clear voice against Trump's escalating authoritarianism. It is time now.

Our history: the U.S. failed to hold Trump accountable—we let him steal elections, kneecap Ukraine, fund genocide in Gaza, slash USAID, shut down our government, and send troops into our own streets—all to protect wealthy pedophiles who rape 12-year-olds.

WE are the shithole country.
