UNBELIEVABLE! Trump permits sale of device that allows standard firearms to fire like machine guns. Since the forced reset trigger devices will not be considered firearms, they can be purchased anonymously, w/o a background or age check. PASS IT ON, OFF BSKY, TOO! www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Excellent piece on Miller on habeas. Far superior to the surprisingly both-sides-ish coverage by some media. What Miller is claiming the power to do isn’t questionable or dubious. It would be anti-constitutional usurpation. www.stevevladeck.com/p/148-suspen...

Removing victims’ photos from an ATF memorial doesn’t stop gun violence. Eliminating school mental health grants doesn’t stop gun violence. Stripping CVI funding from communities doesn’t stop gun violence, nor does gutting Medicaid. We will continue to fight against these harmful policies.

64 days with no aid reaching Gaza. No food, water or medicine. Children are starving. Netanyahu’s extremist government now says it will occupy Gaza & put mercenaries in charge of distributing aid, instead of the UN and other aid groups. Despicable. No more US support for Netanyahu’s war machine.

“Over the past two fiscal years, the unit’s investigations and prosecutions have netted more than $2 billion in proceeds seized and forfeited from criminal networks” Trump and Musk are shutting down an office that brings in 4X its budget and prosecutes organized crime and human trafficking.

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

Look at this sweet, innocent baby —small, scared, utterly alone in a courtroom. No lawyer. No protection. No justice. Trump cut legal aid for migrant children, tearing away their last lifeline. They say they care about families. But this? This is sanctioned cruelty. @myvoicemychoice.bsky.social

Elon Musk’s staffers are trying to push into the National Gallery of Art. They recently met with the museum’s director and legal team, to question its legal status and explore ways to assert influence. One of the nation’s most respected art institutions is now in their crosshairs.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

As the author of a history of concentration camps, I would like to emphasize that this is a very bad idea, and we should definitely not do it.

I do not think it is a coincidence that Trump and Karoline Leavitt are both floating the “US Citizens sent to El Salvador” a few days after massive, distributed anti-Trump protests. It is a threat, and we need to be louder and angrier than ever before on behalf of everyone who has been sent.

submitted 62 days ago • 26 comments

this is straightforwardly concentration camp stuff. just in very plain terms: we send people to camps now if we, the government, deem it necessary, without due process. you can file a habeas petition in the united states district court with jurisdiction over el salvador, i guess.

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him? No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens. Fascism is here.

🚨Read this letter from the school principal in Sackets Harbor, NY. 3 of her students have been snatched by ICE (incl. a 3rd grader handcuffed & put in a detention center). Then watch the video below. AOC predicted EXACTLY what is now happening. This is terrifying. @aoc.bsky.social

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

It's important to understand: this is fascism. What Stephen Miller is saying here, is straight-up fascism. Conflating the mere existence of other races near you, to an army invading and taking over your community, is literally the rhetoric Hitler used to justify his actions.

This is wrong on every damn level. The President just ordered museums to lie—erasing racism, silencing trans voices, and rewriting history to protect power. 👏🏼 This isn’t patriotism. 👏🏼 It’s censorship. 👏🏼 We won’t be gaslit. 👏🏼 Truth still matters. #StopTheLies #HistoryIsPower

This Trump executive order is a racist, sexist attack on the National Museum of African American History and Culture, the American Women’s History Museum and the true purpose of history: to tell the truth about our past. It is straight out of Orwell.
