Just found out that Barack Obama is an Ethel Cain fan and now I'm sad all over again.
We really had no idea how good we had it having someone kind and cool and smart and hopeful as president when we were wee 18 year old babies.

Behind every person you see in psychosis on the streets, there is a story of institutional failure—a story that goes back at least half a century.

🙌🏼 I’m not sure who had the amazing idea to invite this constitutional lawyer to a senate hearing that intended to prove Biden colluded with Meta to censor conservatives, but she took the opportunity to speak truth to power ✊🏼 on the hypocrite 👑 KING OF FREE SPEECH, Donald Trump, himself. 👏🏼 Brava!!

They’re basically saying “We can’t let them shut down the government that is shutting the government down”
For the democrats saying “we can’t let the govt shut down” you’ve already lost. It’s not on you.
Republicans control everything, didn’t come to you for anything except your vote. Where else can you force changes? You can’t… you’re a willing participant in Republican majority

This likely confirms that the decision to arrest him was made at the highest levels of government, a terrifying return to the policies of ideological exclusion last seen used during the heights of the Cold War. A very, very worrying precedent at the start of this government.

Again, the Secretary of State has no authority to “revoke” green cards.
UPDATE — Secretary of State Marco Rubio has now commented on the Trump admin’s detaining & attempted green card revocation of a Columbia Gaza encampment student negotiator:
“We will be revoking the visas and/or green cards of Hamas supporters in America so they can be deported.”
“We will be revoking the visas and/or green cards of Hamas supporters in America so they can be deported.”
NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.
Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.
His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

I think that theory might be wrong though. I think it may be a comfort issue. But, like, if you can do a town hall with 20 people, you can do an instagram live with 200. If you can do a stump speech, you can do a video essay. The skills aren’t that different, but they do need to be developed.

Even if you take DOGE's savings claims so far at face value, its moves to cancel contracts, end leases and push federal agencies to reduce head count barely dent the government's balance sheet.

That blows past the previous record time, held by Bill Clinton at one hour and 28 mins.
