Seems coincidental that the detailed story of Elon's drug use came out right before the trump/Musk fallout. Would not be surprised if the information for the story was provided by whoever wanted Musk out of the White House, someone like Stephen Miller

Gov. Rick Perry before Republicans turned into a cult. It blows the mind how low they’ve fallen.

Hope trump is about to learn that it is not a good idea to anger the man who paid for him to become president.

This is entrapment—and Dems must stand up against it. Weds, June 4: Masked ICE operation in Chicago’s South Loop led to the detention of at least 10 immigrants. They were sent text messages to report for check-ins—then ambushed and taken into custody on arrival. A protest broke out in response.

very fun to read frederick douglass accurately describe the problem with the pardon power in 1867

NEW: Meet the 22-Year-Old Trump’s Team Picked to Lead Terrorism Prevention One year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, Thomas Fugate is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government’s main hub for combating violent extremism.

Arresting a 17-year-old on his way to volleyball practice, here since age 5, or a Missouri mom of three at a routine check-in after 20 years in the U.S.—this isn't justice, it's cruelty. And, yes, ICE agents should be ashamed of themselves.

i know no one cares about hypocrisy or shamelessness or anything anymore but these people really used to tell us they were scared of an armed govt being turned against americans, they made an entire career out of it

It is kind of funny how the people who voted for trump are getting all the things they claim to hate the most. www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

"It's a Yes or No Question"

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

McMAHON: Here's the other thing -- where are our guidance counselors in high schoolers? DURBIN: Good question. You're cutting the number of counselors in these schools at the same time!

The U.S. government is breaking up families without an ounce of compassion. ICE is detaining migrants at court—asking judges to dismiss cases so they can arrest people as they leave & shove them into fast-track deportation. Word’s out: Show up, risk deportation. Stay home, lose your case.

Reed: I’m not a great mathematician but I think you were talking about a trillion dollars. I believe 1.5 billion times ten is 15 billion. McMahon: I think the cut is 1.2 billion Reed: That would be 12 billion not a trillion McMahon: Okay

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

your regular reminder that authoritarian populism will make your country corrupt and poor. look at Hungary

Imagine what this woman and her family went through. All for what?

We still can’t get straight answers on why ICE agents are masked and refusing to ID themselves. On top of all that they appear to be lying about cause. Congress, do you see what’s happening? Don’t be silent! Call your Senators & Reps. Demand an investigation. ☎️ Capitol Switchboard: (202) 224-3121
