"Dictatorship in action." Journalist @davidcayjohnston.bsky.social reacts to the shocking deal Donald Trump's lawyers negotiated with his own administration that establishes a $1.8 billion "slush fund" to reward the president's allies.

Journalist and author @jeffsharlet.bsky.social explains the religious aspects of the manifesto believed to have been written by Cole Allen, the alleged gunman who opened fire at the White House Correspondents Association dinner on Saturday.

Robert Weissman of @publiccitizen.bsky.social explains how Trump's record-breaking Pentagon budget budget comes at the cost of funding for education, healthcare, science and social services. The $500 billion increase "is beyond the wildest dreams of the military-industrial complex," he says.

The Nation’s abortion access correspondent @amylittlefield.bsky.social says the abortion rights movement is more prepared to fight Friday’s federal appeals court decision to limit access to the abortion pill mifepristone than it was when Roe v. Wade was overturned four years ago.

Academic @quinnslobodian.com, co-author of the new book "Muskism," says major firms firms increasingly see a need to "fuse with the state," a far cry from the supposed cyber-libertarian ethos of an earlier time.

Will the U.S. and Europe break up? As Trump threatens to pull out of NATO amid mounting criticism of his war on Iran, @nathalietocci.bsky.social says "closeness to Trump is becoming increasingly politically toxic in Europe."

Reporters Without Borders (@rsf.org) says global press freedom has fallen to its lowest level in 25 years. "We're seeing deterioration pretty much across the board, both in authoritarian countries and in democracies," says Clayton Weimers.

Israel continues to attack Lebanon despite Trump claiming Monday that Israel and Hezbollah had agreed to stop fighting. “What happened yesterday was in no means a ceasefire,” says Beirut-based journalist @chehayebk.bsky.social.

Middle East scholar @eskandarsadeghi.bsky.social says the "extremely precarious" ceasefire between the United States and Iran effectively leaves the Strait of Hormuz under ongoing Iranian control, part of "a fundamental change in the region."

Tennessee death row prisoner Tony Carruthers was issued a one-year stay of execution last week after prison officials botched his execution. "We could hear him groaning in pain," says @nashvillebanner.bsky.social journalist Steven Hale, who attended as a media witness.

Trump’s NSPM 7 flags “domestic threats” based on beliefs, not actions. Anti Americanism. Views on race, gender, migration. “Hostility” to traditional values. None of it is defined. That is the danger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRlhAMdxHXg

[President Trump] went and said help is on the way to the Iranian protesters. Time after time over the last, mostly over the last 10 days or so, he has been encouraging the Iranian protesters, and at the same time the Ayatollah has come out and … called him a tyrant,” said @jonathankarl.bsky.social.

Carbon capture is essential if we’re to survive. The fact of the matter is that CO2 levels need to be reduced to ~350ppm. The only way we can achieve that is to reduce emissions massively & increase natural carbon sinks to a point where we are decreasing atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations.
