Investigators believe the man may have been framed to get him arrested & deported before he could testify in a case where he was a victim of assault. The person who spoke to the AP did so on condition of anonymity, because they couldn't speak publicly. apnews.com/article/ice-...

Ugly for Hungry Kids. Ugly for Health. Ugly for Students. Ugly for Environment. Ugly for Interest Rates. Ugly for Deficits and More! All For the Sake of Greedy Billionaires Raise the Alarm!!! Call, Donate, Volunteer, Boycott, Protest, Inform via Social Media, Organize Strategically!!

Alex Lawson: We're outside the Energy & Commerce committee with folks risking arrest to protest the destruction of Medicaid which is what Republicans are doing right now in the committee room.

i’m getting van hollen pilled

What some people aren’t factoring into their analysis is the reality that companies were buying tons of inventory to beat the tariffs. That’s cash taken from being able to invest or hire. In fact the probably cut costs and jobs as a result. #econsky

Just call it surrender. Stop playing word games. The United States of America is surrendering to Russia.

How long are Democrats going to put up with the weakness of @schumer.senate.gov It’s the political equivalent of bringing a paring knife to a gunfight When we need a bazooka Chuck’s gotta go The Reformers

Japanese and Chinese markets are down 8% and 10% respectively. Black Friday in 1929 was -11%. Tomorrow could easily be the worst crash in American history. The worst thing? It’s 100% intentional.

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me. There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine. The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

Huge crowds of protesters in Washington D.C. heading to the Hands Off! protest! Let's go!!!!!

Liar Greg Abbott says he has refused to set a special election to fill the seat of recently diseased Democratic Rep. Sylvester Turner because he says Harris County doesn’t do their elections properly.

Stand with us, or fall against us. Flippers up.

🚨🚨Calling all North Carolina voters!! Here is a list of every voter that Jefferson Griffin is trying to disenfranchise, please if you are a NC voter check to see if your name is on here, you have 15 days to cure your ballot to make sure your vote counts. thegriffinlist.com/assets/griff...

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling. People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯. America, we have a problem!

Stop calling them “tariffs”. Call them “import taxes”. The idiots will understand better

Elon’s coming for the Peace Corps, an American initiative he will never understand. Unlike Elon, PCVs are welcome in South Africa. PC Volunteers live on small stipends and a tiny support staff. The budget is $400m, the same amount of money Elon wanted the State Dept to spend on “armored” Teslas.

Bombshell in North Carolina: the state's GOP-dominated Court of Appeals just sided with the GOP candidate in last year's supreme court race. Their decision would toss roughly 60,000 ballots (!) that have been counted, & likely hand the election to GOP instead of incumbent Dem Justice who won it.

World leaders are giving press conferences and speeches to address fears from their constituents. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is heading to Mar-a-Lago to go golfing after throwing the economy into the woodchipper. What a global embarrassment.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

so as i understand it the president has driven an improvised fertilizer bomb directly into the foundation of global trade?

Impressively appalling

@ky120unitedaft.bsky.social Special Education Paraeducator Dan Isenstein is right! "As far as the impact of proposed federal budget cuts on our kids, defunding won't 'make America great again.' It will just take us back to a time when we were indifferent and cruel toward kids with special needs."

Just a friendly reminder that while voters won't have another chance to remove Schumer until 2028, the Dem senators can remove him at any time if they just get together. He may be able to stay in the senate, but he doesn't have to remain leader. It's time for something new.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I don't give AF what Schumer says. Keep calling your senators. Don't let them betray us.

Call this the "Schumer Surrender"

Just to be clear, a big reason @altssa.altgov.info and I are here is because it's painfully obvious to employees that SSA is being sabotaged. They want it to break so they can kill it and blame us. We need all your help to spread the word far and wide so these people can't escape responsibility.
