🧵Right, let’s get this straight— #Qatar didn’t just wake up and say, “You know what? Let’s chuck a $400M private jet at a bloke for fun.” No, no—there’s always a price, always a deal, always some backroom handshake that smells like old money and moral bankruptcy. #Trump

Any opportunity for Trump to open a prison and close a museum is too good to pass up

We must fight to save PBS and NPR.

Trump said: “The homegrowns are next.” That’s not just a phrase. It’s a warning. This is what state-sponsored disappearance looks like.

Well thankfully we have a constitution and first amendment that will endure long past you fat self

Trump just denied North Carolina’s request for FEMA relief from Hurricane Helene, calling it “unwarranted.”

When Rubio announced the agreement with El Salvador in February he touted it as a way to outsourcing the federal prison system by allowing the US to send American citizen inmates there to serve their . This undercuts the Trump administration’s claim to the courts that it can’t get people back.

I hate to say this, and it gives me the chills just to think it, but CECOT is on (and not a short way down) the road to Auschwitz.

Of course it was fraud. @therickwilson.bsky.social breaks down the “dead cat bounce” we all watched take place yesterday in the market. Watch here: therickwilson.substack.com/p/trump-cave...

At least 75% of the men Trump illegally deported to El Salvador have no criminal records. These men have been abducted and sent to a hell-hole Salvadoran “prison” that is the the equivalent of a torture-laden concentration camp. No due process. The Trump regime is paying El Salvador $6 million…

Boston Ma💗💗Hands Off Rally today! YESSSS!

‘Musk on Friday announced plans to travel to Wisconsin over the weekend to hand out two separate $1 million checks to people who had voted in the upcoming state Supreme Court election.” Oh hell no you don’t. This is not South Africa. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue www.rawstory.com/elon-musk-wi...

Migrants found dead at Krome Detention Center in Miami, due to possible starvation and dehydration. The facility, which was a detention facility prior to it being converted for ICE use, has a max capacity of 500.

At this point, anti-DEI just means racist and sexist.

I think it's time we stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look, what's going down? There's battle lines being drawn. Nobody's right if everybody's wrong. Young people speaking their minds. Getting so much resistance from behind. #MomSky

Let’s see, Donald Trump launched his crypto business right before taking office. Melania did the day before the inauguration. Junior launched a new one too. Oh, and of course Eric did.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine
