The rule of law is dying right in front of us. Impunity for the president's allies, vengeful prosecutions for his opponents.

Exactly, Samuel. If any other nation...did what we’re doing right now...killing at sea under a “counter-narcotics” label...Washington would call it piracy...not policy.
“Exceptionalism” can’t mean “laws for you, loopholes for us.” That’s how empires rot.

Ed Martin seemed to explicitly link the pardons to his “No MAGA left behind” mantra—tweeting the news in reply to a post that said exactly that.

In addition to his role as pardon attorney, Martin leads the Weaponization Working Group, which probes alleged “politicization” of the Justice Department.

Trump’s aid cuts are killing far more Nigerian Christians than Islamic terrorists are. Independent monitors in Nigeria report 33 deaths this year in attacks against Christians (fewer than the 88 Muslims killed). But Trump cut off aid that helped save 270,000 lives a year in Nigeria. 270,000 > 33.

New College is a good metaphor for the whole MAGA project
Chris Rufo/Ron DeSantis overhauled New College and made it "the most financially inefficient school in the university system"

Degree yield is 19%, 2nd-worst in Fla.

Operating funds per student at New College: $83,207
Same category at Univ of Florida: $45,765

A very partial resource for the folks who need it - I found many of these by searching for "SNAP free meal" or "SNAP free breakfast" within Bluesky.

And if you don't need this help, please support the businesses providing it.

A group of Jewish grandmas, or bubbes, have been offering advice and comfort to anxious D.C. residents.

The ‘What Would Bubbe Do?’ sessions give people the chance to ask a bubbe about issues ranging from job loss to relationship struggles.
Bubbes volunteer to do what they do best: Counsel troubled souls
Why crowds of young professionals have been lining up to get advice — and hugs — from other people’s bubbes.

So, the president has no problem asking billionaires for money to pay for his personal golden ballroom, but cannot ask them to pay more taxes so that Americans can have access to better healthcare, education, and housing.
