Lauren Gambino ,  Political Correspondent   -  The Guardian (U.K.)

Stephan: Today, we got what may turn out to be good news about the continuation of SNAP from two courts with ethical judges. That is, if the Trump coup administration follows what the court orders. That used to be a given, but under the Trump coup, that is no longer always the case.

The surveillance state is here—and it’s bleak
Lisa Needham,  Staff Writer  -  Daily Kos

_Stephan: I wonder how many Americans realize that dictator Trump is spending hundreds of millions of dollars of your tax dollars to pay the costs of putting the National Guard and his ICE Gestapo in American cities to harass and detain thousands of men, women, and children. The stories coming out of this military takeover of American civilian society get more horrific day by day. Only a thug … ⌘ Read more

Trump’s EV retreat is a huge win for his No. 1 trade rival
Allison Morrow,  Reporter  -  CNN

_Stephan: Because Trump, his vassals, and the Republican Party think climate change is not real, and just a “con”, America is going backwards, while China is being handed world leadership of the EV transition.
