While District Courts have defended the Constitution, SCOTUS aids and abets the MAGA fascist regime.

Well, ordinary peaceful US-Americans are now being arrested for disagreeing with our corrupt and idiotic government.

I've been predicting this since 2015.

They're gonna come for me eventually, I assume.

⬆️⬆️⬆️ I boosted this because it is a very good explainer about what is happening to #science funding in the US federal govt under #DOGE and its aftermath. I did not know how grant funding worked until #Trump 2.0. It was a black box even to people whose livelihoods depended on it.

But I disagree that we want to go back to the way things were. OMB had too much power. The US executive branch - controlled by the president - should not decide. Under the #USConstitution, #Congress as the reps of the people should have the power of the purse strings. I hope #WeThePeople can convince them to reclaim their power.

The DOJ’s Assault on Civil Rights

The Justice Department just made it much harder for employees to prove discrimination and much easier for employers to avoid liability.

What a mess: “MAGA has worked to impose the ideology of evangelical religion on America. In the military … Hegseth has pushed Christian theocracy through extremist Christian-based prayers services with a Christian nationalist preacher who has said women’s suffrage was a bad idea and has defended slavery, and has described Trump’s war on Iran as a holy war.” 🤬
