Trump is already planning for the 20*30* Census. This time, not only does he want to stop counting noncitizens, he wants to stop counting race and ethnicity. Can't have an unconstituional racial gerrymander if you pretend not to know where Black people live.
My latest in @thenation.com
The Trump Plan to Cook the Census Books
From adding a citizenship question to not tracking race and ethnicity, the administration wants to minimize Black and brown political power.

100% correct. And, every time somebody says they want to see Citizens United overturned, I think it would be helpful if they talked through the path they see us taking to get there. What are you going to do about the Supreme Court to make meaningful campaign finance reform possible?
As someone currently running for office, we need publicly financed elections and the complete overturn of Citizens United. Our political process should not be indistinguishable from a scam operation.

Babies were found with dead brain tissue similar to what follows cancer and the kind of bleeding seen after a stroke.

Their autopsies all came to the same conclusion: Their deaths could have been prevented with the long-standard vitamin K shot.

Babies Are Bleeding to Death as Parents Reject a Vitamin Shot Given at Birth
A lifesaving injection given at birth to prevent severe bleeding has become collateral damage of the anti-vaccine movement.

He has shown nothing but utter disdain & lack of respect for the troops, dead & alive, since 2016, & this has done absolutely nothing to change how the GOP is treated as the default party of national security. It's the military/foreign policy equivalent of "the GOP is the party of deficit hawks."
Trump pissed on the graves of a lot of Korean War vets today.

North Korea is currently rushing ballistic missiles to Russia for use in mass murdering Ukrainians.
Trump allies himself w/Kim Jong Un against South Korea: “Based on my very good relationship w/Kim Jong Un, I am not happy that the US has agreed to Joint Military Exercises…I recently asked the President of SK if they would like to join us in the Denuclearization of Iran, & they said, ‘No thanks!’”

While Americans are understandably frustrated that the FDA has been unable to pinpoint the cause of the cyclosporiasis outbreak, everyone needs to know that Trump fired 9 of the 11 FDA staff who had been tracking diseases for decades. The leader then resigned in disgust, leaving one person.

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.

Yep. @polphilpod.bsky.social and I made this point in this essay on Elon Musk's real fascist worldview, which all of you should read if you haven't yet, because (we immodestly insist) it breaks new ground.

Memo to people who think expanding the Supreme Court would make it “too political”:
THE COURT IS TOO POLITICAL NOW, and it’s badly misaligned with the values and views of the American people.
Fight the fascists. Don‘t reward them for hijacking our government.
I just listened to a panel with David French and someone from the Brennan Center vociferously argue against expanding the Court. French said it would lead to “the dissolution of the republic.” About a third of the audience applauded. We need to get a policy culture that’s willing to do what it takes

Donald Trump lied when he said there are 280,000 noncitizens registered to vote in 4 states. He is saying this to threaten states to turn over their voter rolls to the administration and agree to remove the names of people Trump doesn't want to be able to vote.
