The casual cruelty of the Trump regime is arguably the most damning and sickening element of its police state tactics. The shooting of 2 Nat’l Guardsmen will no doubt worsen matters as Trump calls immigration the nation’s worst nat’l security problem. Nope, he is. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
ICE detains Texas father as son’s health declines: ‘Don’t forget about me’

📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.
Prosecute her and everyone involved.

It’s tempting to call the Trumpian move to de-professionalize professions like nursing unbelievable. Except that nothing the regime is doing is unbelievable anymore. Anti-democratic, racist, misogynous, crooked, and intolerable, yes, but it’s hard to disbelieve what’s happening to us every day.

Trumpistas clearly believe that U.S. military personnel SHOULD obey illegal orders and anybody saying they shouldn’t is a traitor. The upsidedownism of the current regime worsens by the day.

Today on Volts: the subset of cleantech known as "electrotech" -- solar, batteries, heat pumps, etc. -- is marching toward inevitable victory, not because it's low-emissions (though it is), but because it's more efficient & cheaper. I discuss the good news with @kingsmillbond.bsky.social.
Clean electrification is inevitable
