If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process.

All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Oh dear... every economy, US, China, Europe, Russia, ... is on the brink of collapse according to youTube video suggestions. It's ridiculous.
I can believe that Russia is i deep trouble. Russia had been for some time despite Putin's creative ways to cope with massive sanctions while waging a war.
I can believe that Trump is crushing the economy fast and furious with his tariffs and workforce deportation. Just ask Great Britain ...

"Every time I find one of these lunatics [opposing Trump/MAGA ideologies], I take away their visas," he told reporters on a visit to Guyana.

Having a valid visa means nothing when it can be revoked without notice and ICE/secret police can snatch you off the street and throw you into a detention/concentration camp.

""Wir sehen einen Angriff auf die Hochschulen unter dem Deckmantel des Kampfes gegen Antisemitismus", sagte Erin Beiner von der jüdischen Lobbyorganisation J Street der Nachrichtenagentur Reuters. "Ich kann nicht genug betonen, wie wenig das wirklich jüdische Studierende schützen wird.""

Do This: Tesla Mass Action Protest on March 29th


This Saturday, March 29th, is Tesla Takedown Day, a day of peaceful protest at every US Tesla dealership and as many other dealerships and facilities outside the US as possible.

Here’s a map of planned protests you can join – places, times of day, and so on. They aren’t all at the same time, which might be useful for you. Find one close to you that’s at a time you can make and be there, preferably with a sign. If you don’t want to design your own sign, feel free to print and use one of these, or adapt them to your own ideas. They’re high resolution at 11×17 and plenty good enough at two times that.

Tesla Takedown is also helping people find protests on other days as well. Here’s the home website for the movement, with all the details you need.

Get out there. And good hunting.

#Hamas defiant after #Israeli air strike kills another high profile figure in #Gaza

Published date: 27 March 2025 11:46 GMT

"The Palestinian movement confirmed the death and said that the attack would only strengthen its resistance. "

"Qanoua is the latest high profile Hamas figure to be killed since Israel resumed the war last week, in what appears to be a targeted assassination campaign. "

After a lengthy & detailed discussion of the Court of the Tangerine Tyrant's political attack on Columbia University, @adamtooze makes an interesting argument about the next major problem for the university sector in the USA; the likely attrition against China, which will then cause significant issues for a sector dependent on both Chinese Students & funding for China related academic undertakings.

There may be (more) trouble ahead

"It's not too late to stop this train, although it gets more difficult with every day that goes by, every media outlet that rolls over and pays off, every law firm that grovels before Trump. The key — as it has been throughout history — is to mobilize public opinion...

History suggests that mobilizing 3.5% of the populace of a country is enough to produce change"

Text from article:
It's not too late to stop this train, although it gets more difficult with every day that goes by, every media outlet that rolls over and pays off, every law firm that grovels before Trump. The key — as it has been throughout history — is to mobilize public opinion and pressure politicians to act on behalf of traditional American values of freedom, liberty, and the rule of law.

History suggests that mobilizing 3.5% of the populace of a country is enough to produce change, although recent experience in Belarus and Israel suggests that may depend on how entrenched an authoritarian regime has become, particularly if their legitimacy is enhanced by an external attack (see Reichstag Fire, Moscow Theater, 10/7, and 9/11).

Nonetheless, there are things we can do right now:

— Support independent, progressive media.
— Show up for protests in your area.
— Post your opinions on social media.
— Share this and other like-minded newsletters.
— Reach out to your elected officials from the federal to state to local levels.
— Run for office yourself.
— Join your local Democratic Party and volunteer as a precinct committeeperson.
— Wake up everybody you know.


"The goal of this sort of kidnapping and hellish incarceration isn’t to clear the streets of criminals or promote public safety or even prevent immigration: it’s to create #terror. And it’s working.

This is a playbook as ancient as the world’s first kings...

every #tyrant throughout #history has used the threat of arrest and imprisonment as a way to force public compliance with their regime."

Text from article:
This morning, the world learned that Trump’s goons also shipped a married father with no criminal record (and no tattoos!) off to that same prison in El Salvador, again with no due process. The man had not committed any crime.

The goal of this sort of kidnapping and hellish incarceration isn’t to clear the streets of criminals or promote public safety or even prevent immigration: it’s to create terror. And it’s working.

This is a playbook as ancient as the world’s first kings. Defy the monarch, or even challenge the monarch, and your quality of life rapidly goes to hell.

From the Tower of London in the twelfth century to Stalin’s gulags, from the medieval Popes’ Palacio de la Inquisición torture chambers to Hitler’s concentration camps, from Xi’s Dabancheng Re-education Camp to Trump’s ICE agents snatching people off the streets, every tyrant throughout history has used the threat of arrest and imprisonment as a way to force public compliance with their regime.


"This is how it begins.

Tuesday night, Tufts University PhD student #RumeysaOzturk was going out to a restaurant to meet friends when masked federal #ICE agents dressed in street clothes seized her off a public sidewalk and disappeared her. Her apparent crime was co-authoring an op-ed critical of #Trump & #Netanyahu."

Good Night, Tech Right!
PDF #Zine

„We’re excited to announce a new zine version of Good Night, Tech Right: Pull the Plug on AI Fascism, a deep-dive into the influence of far-Right and neo-fascist politics on the emerging bloc of tech billionaires within the Trumpian state, and its push to cement Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a new regime of capital accumulation.

With anger only rising against techno-fascists like #ElonMusk and calls for protests against #Tesla growing, we hope this zine offers people a resource and chance to start discussions around our shifting landscape.“

It is not #Labor induced cost of living crisis, but from the seeds sown during the last 9 years of #LyingNastyParasites being in power. #Labor inherited almost 1 trillion debt which has been reduced a lot by their management.

#FuelExcise cut for 12 months? Sounds good, but is not solving the structural problems or ensuring a better future.

The #Nuclear power proposal will take decades to come and double energy prices. And be an enormous burden on our economy. And where is the water coming from? There isn't enough.


This is a t-shirt design that I came up with. (The flag-map graphic was done by someone else.) Pro-#Israel elements in and out of government are using phony arguments about #antiSemitism as a pretext for repressing the #Palestine solidarity movement. I think that countering that slander is extremely important right now.

Update 3/26/25: I worked on a newer version.
Below is the vendor's mockup of it.
If you want to get one from them, here is a URL (replace the DOT) "https://wwwDOTetsyDOTcom/listing/1027856101/custom-text-design-shirt-personalized"
and mention order #3638879169, which tells them to use this design. Also indicate front only or front/back.

If anyone is interested in getting the design as a file (with or without changes) just let me know.

This stuff is just plain nuts, and a massive danger to our military.

“The statements by Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe, and Trump—combined with the assertions made by numerous administration officials that we are lying about the content of the Signal texts—have led us to believe that people should see the texts in order to reach their own conclusions.”

Golda Meir once said the old would die, and the young forget: ‘But they didn’t forget. The old died, but not before passing down the names of villages, the stories of trees, the keys to locked doors, the maps etched in memory. The young inherited all of it … & for that, they must be eliminated.’

With some intrinsic flaws in dictators you can do whatever you want with the same outcome: unreasonable aggression and even self-harm. [sic #trump & #putin ]

There wasn't nor isn't anything that will prevent their aggression against democratic institutions since they view them as threat to their power.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was hired for that top job despite his lack of experience in running a huge organization and his carelessness with security. He was hired for his blind devotion to Trump and his ability to "lie directly into the cameras":
