Part I focuses on the worldview of the people behind “Project 2025.” They see themselves as noble defenders of “real America” against a totalitarian “woke,” “globalist” assault. “Project 2025” is their declaration of war on multiracial pluralism: 5/

“Project 2025” Promises Revenge, Oppression, and Autocratic Rulethomaszimmer.substack.com The Right’s plans for a return to power are driven by a radicalizing siege mentality and a desperate desire to restore dominance

This is a really good time if you're not already connected to local groups and organizations organizing around particular issues to find ones in your communities that could use your talents and skills.

This seems bad

A senior House Democrat says efforts to replace Biden at the top of the ticket have stopped because, “We've all resigned ourselves to a second Trump presidency."

Trump rally shooting upends congressional Democrats' crisis over Biden's candidacywww.axios.com Rep. Dean Phillips said it would be "unpatriotic and unprincipled" to focus on anything besides the shooting.

So I hear there was a fire in the Reichstag.

Brunson's not taking a pay cut, he's taking less money now instead of more money later. A cut is when you're making less than you did before. I wish people would stop saying that. #nba #knicks

Jalen Brunson is a legend.

Yale Law School and Yale School of Medicine's recent report challenges the UK’s Cass Review on gender-affirming care, accusing it of misrepresenting data and drawing unsupported conclusions. www.transvitae.com/y... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

Yale Exposes Errors in UK Transgender Youth Cass Reportwww.transvitae.com Yale's new report criticizes the UK’s Cass Review on gender-affirming care, highlighting misrepresentations affecting transgender youth healthcare policies.

I think DSA pulling its endorsement of AOC over Palestine is stupid, but otoh if it's 50-50 on Biden staying in the race then the fact that he's suborned genocide in Gaza is a big mark against him.

Today I was delayed getting to New York from Boston to do an interview about climate change because we haven’t adapted our transportation systems to climate change. *chefs kiss*

As a side note, this is John McEntee, Trump's Director of White House Personnel and the primary architect of Project 2025. On Tik Tok he said he gives counterfeit bills to homeless people so they will be arrested when they go to spend them.

fuck man, I don't even know what to say anymore. One political party wants to burn everything to the ground and institute theocratic, kleptocratic autocracy. I think this is bad, just one man's opinion.

No surprise to see Bibi taking advantage of the chaos in the US.

Conservatives Go to War — Against Each Other — Over School Vouchers School choice advocates are intent on expanding the availability of vouchers to fund private education at the expense of public schools, but rural residents of these targeted states are putting up some of the strongest resistance.

The right wing majority on scotus legalizes bribery and criminalizes homelessness because to them, rich people deserve rights and poor people deserve nothing. If they were deserving they’d be rich.

I think they should’ve just left the second round in the evening, against the debate.

One of my favorite authors interacting with one of my comrades. Very cool.

the book I ordered in....2008 just arrived. thank you @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com for rescuing this project! past time for a re-read

The Knicks need front court depth and a back up point guard. Who do they draft? An 18 yo project from France who noone will ever hear from again. #nbadraft

Good joke, but I always thought the Empire being established and falling in about 20 years was the most unrealistic part of Star Wars. It would take 100s of years, too long to focus so much on a couple of people from one family.

The galaxy falling back under the thrall of the Empire used to feel like the weakest aspect of the Disney sequels but now they feel like the most realistic. It wouldn’t even have taken 30 years, give it just 4 and the Star Wars news-anchors would be asking, how can Palpatine win the debate this week

The Knicks have to sign Anunoby, but New Yorkers are not gonna be happy if he makes $40 mil a year and only plays 50 games in the regular season and misses a chunk of the playoffs every year, and that’s putting it mildly.

I don't think you can have an honest conversation about the "partisan divide" unless you're honest about the fact that one of just two major parties is waging a fascist assault on democracy, the rule of law, and truth itself

Is the Partisan Divide Too Big to Be Bridged?www.nytimes.com From the urban and rural divide to the partisan gulf, from religious groups to warring factions on campuses, organizations and funders are cropping up with hope for common ground.

As they finalize the new NBA TV package, they should keep in mind that ESPN‘s coverage of the finals has pretty much sucked. Take away Mike and Doris and not much else is worthy of the moment.

Wow the Celtics really can't play defense without either Horford or Porzyngis in the game. Where's Tillman?

People who think Pride Month is being "shoved down their throat" (interesting turn of phrase there) have never been Jewish in December.

The moderates are bankrupt, all over Europe & here. If the right is going to be resisted it's going to have to be by the left-which means getting & keeping it together enough to do it. & basically outside the electoral process, which the left is almost completely shut out of, exc maybe in France

Hundreds of thousands of people are marching against the far-right in France today, as the far-right has never been so close to power. Images from Paris’s March, where a lot of signs are focusing on demanding that left leaders stay united to counter the far-right:
