“I’d like to say that we’re winning these cases because we’re all a bunch of Johnnie Cochrans or Perry Masons or whatever,” Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison said. “But the truth is, what he’s doing is patently illegal, and a 1L law student would know it.” […]

Creative Strategies to Resist Authoritarianism Authoritarianism is on the rise globally — AND so is our power to push back. Artists and cultural workers play a pivotal role in successful people-powered movements, shaping what’s possible through story, symbol, and song and moving/inspiring people to courageous action. Built by and for cultural workers,this training offers insight and connection to meet this moment with strategy, courage, and creativity. Together, we’ll unpack how mass noncooperation can block authoritarian power, learn from global resistance efforts, and imagine how our craft can power collective action. Whatever your creative medium or path, you’re part of a vital cultural frontline. Let’s grow our power, refuse compliance, and make culture that blocks, bridges and builds.

SCREENSHOT: TrumpFile.org reposted: Kurt Anderson @KBAnderson At Spy we covered Trump correctly and, as it turned out, presciently. Lately, these two bits have seemed especially apt and well-aged -- a bit from our first issue in 1986, "The 10 Most Embarrassing New Yorkers" and a brilliant cartoon by Bruce Handy (@henryfingjames) for our 1990 NBC TV show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCN_uISlJ-k "Forget the way he has imposed upon all of us his idea of 'class' -- more of a 'Dynasty' notion of panache than anything even faintly evoking the uptown swagger that New York epitomizes. Forget his noxious tactics with tenants he wishes to evict. Forget the sheer cheesiness of Trump Tower, Trump Plaza, and his casinos; forget the way he seems to have the [New York] Times in his back pocket; forget the hustler-on-his-best-behavior manner. In fact, just forget about everything concerning Donald Trump except the stupid things he says: `It would take an hour and a half to learn everything there is to learn about missiles... I think I know most of it anyway.' -- on his desire to handle nuclear non-proliferation negotiations [with the USSR] for the United States."

He is who he has ALWAYS been. This, from 1986.

SCREENSHOT: The Washington Post "7 Things" newsletter 5. THE SUPREME COURT SIDED WITH CHRISTIAN PARENTS IN A BATTLE OVER SCHOOL TRANS POLICIES. * IN CALIFORNIA: A law prohibits schools from requiring employees to report students' sexual orientation and gender identity to parents. But justices blocked its enforcement, for now. * ALSO YESTERDAY: Justices blocked the redrawing of a Republican's district in New York, and some of them seemed skeptical that smoking weed can eliminate your right to a gun.

Our Declaration of Independence, for example, contains some of the most potent and consequential words in recorded history. Ironically, none of those words support the outrageous practices and horrific behavior employed by the current President of the United States and his subordinates since he has been in office. > > Through DHS and its “military” arm, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”), this Commander-in-Chief of our armed forces has degraded the security of these United States and its residents. He has violated the spirit, the intent and the specific language of our nation’s Constitution – a document admired and emulated around the world – and numerous other laws. He has immorally redefined the phrase “with liberty and justice for all” to arbitrarily exclude individuals. He has unlawfully demanded violence by federal employees against U.S. citizens and residents – including lethal force – enabling ICE as a terroristic para-military organization. He has arrested, detained and deported individuals without due process. He has treated children inhumanely. > > He has eviscerated the protections embedded within our federalist system and discarded the rights of individual States and municipalities. He has advocated for and supported misleading and libelous characterizations of individuals defending American civil liberties and rights. He has used federal power unethically and illegally to limit freedom of speech and assembly, and to fascistically threaten the media and individuals who exercise their “free speech” rights. > > Abusers of power will always seek to control and exploit others. They use corruption and lies to advance their selfish agendas. Abusers may be called Hitler, Putin or Trump; authoritarians, Nazis or MAGA; storm troopers, the Ku Klux Klan or ICE. They are all the same. They have been and should always be overcome by courageous, freedom-loving people. > > Therefore, the People’s Music Network stands with and sounds the call with our neighbors in Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland, Philadelphia, Maine, New York City and any place where the abuse of power and the abandonment of decency is taking place. > > We gentle, angry artists in America pledge ourselves to support the voices of the unheard and the dismissed, to protect the rights that we and our neighbors are entitled to under our Constitution, and to tell the stories of those who are sacrificing or who are being sacrificed every day in the struggle to preserve life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. > > We are singing for our lives and we shall overcome!
