It's positively stunning in the worst possible way how many once-respected entities, institutions have capitulated to Trump.

Ross Douthat turned “Interesting Times” into a complimentary transcription service for fascism. When your “interview” reads like a campaign brochure, you’re not a journalist—you’re a publicist.

The #Trump admin is trying to deport *another* student, 21-yr-old #YunseoChung, a legal permanent resident, under the statute authorizing Secy of State #MarcoRubio to remove people deemed threat. She's lived here since childhood.

Chung wasn’t a leader or heavily involved in the protest movement, she only attended a few.

The #US is seeking to deport a person w/a #GreenCard since she was a child because she went to a #protest.

Today is a really good day to do something. Read the Constitution. Have a talk with a stranger about DOGE. Volunteer at a food bank. Be kind to people. Whatever you do, don’t just throw your hands up in the air & assume Trump gets away with it all. We are still a rule of law country. Insist on it.
