do these people not understand how busy we are???????

Judge Merchan has had to spell out the obvious for Trump: he may not taint proceedings in his trial for criminal misuse of campaign funds by attacking family members of judge, prosecutor, or anybody else involved in the trial. https://www.yahoo.com/news/judge-expands-trumps-gag-order-001725793.html? 1/

School food advocates are "delighted" that the federal government will spend $1 billion over the next five years to bolster Canada's school food programs.

In just two troubling proposals, Project 2025 calls for blocking “federal financial aid for up to two-thirds of all American college students if their state permits certain immigrant groups, including Dreamers w/legal status, to access in-state tuition," as well terminating their #DACA status "by eliminating staff time for reviewing and processing renewal applications": https://americasvoice.org/blog/trumps-2025-immigration-agenda/

How do we know Hope Hicks flip was the worst part? Because Trump has a tell. It is his vocabulary malfunctions

His past record was 3 vocabulary malfunctions in a day (several times) the last time that happened was June 6, 2023. That was when he'd heard Jack Smith would indict Trump (was on 9 Jun)

This is an excellent thread on U.S. media and our political situation from a @flux contributor imo. I didn't read the article, but I bet it's good too.

So far, only 2,800 Threads accounts have turned on Federation. Of the ones I see, they’re quite active.

I suspect the reason for the minuscule federated accounts is because Threads users can’t see replies from the Fediverse yet. Why would you turn on federation if you’re oblivious to interactions from the Fediverse?

Nevertheless, we’ll see what happens once communication becomes two-way.

Have you seen the video of the pro-Hamas American Arabs interrupting Easter service in Catholic churches shouting out stuff like #FreePalestine

Anyways, that they're attacking Catholics because of what they are accusing the Jews of doing really indicates to me how much of this is a Russian political technology campaign weaponizing our poorly educated population this election year.

Republican congressman suggests dropping nuclear bombs on Gaza and ending humanitarian aid

IDF and Shin Bet security agency on Saturday announce that four senior Hamas terrorists were killed by Israeli troops at Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital in recent days. https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-shin-bet-say-several-senior-hamas-terrorists-killed-as-shifa-op-continues/

Pay attention to how fascists (excuse me "conservatives and libertarians") use the word "elitist."

They clearly think that America is secretly run by actors and college professors rather than the billionaires they keep giving tax cuts to.

Biden and Obama Absolutely Torch Trump With Record-Breaking Fundraiser

https://newrepublic.com/post/180256/biden-obama-torch-trump-record-breaking-fundraiser

Donald Trump just posted an image of Joe Biden tied up in the back of a pickup as though he’d been kidnapped.

This has become a popular sticker for the backs of MAGA folks’ vehicles.

And in normal times, it would have resulted in a referral to the FBI — and the Secret Service.

Trump targets women when he counterattacks:

- Fani Willis
- Letitia James
- E. Jean Carroll
- Robbie Kaplan
- Judge Chutkan
- Judge Engoron’s law clerk
- Judge Merchan’s daughter

Misogyny is ALWAYS one of his weapons of choice.

And women will be the ones to take him down.
