Abolish ICE

The 2025 class president of MIT was barred from attending her graduation ceremony after delivering a speech denouncing the war in Gaza at a commencement event the day before: cnn.it/43GWlge

Elon Musk grabbed our personal information, and now, Peter Thiel's Palantir appears to be one of the vehicles Trump will employ to use it against us. Don't worry; they'll continue reassuring us it will only be used to create a better world. (For them.)

May 30) In March, a Trump EO called for USG to share data across agencies, maybe letting him compile a master list on USians for untold surveillance power. Trump hasn't publicly talked of it since. But behind the scenes, officials have turned to one company: #Palantir www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/t...

This is a lawless regime.

Pres. Trump’s deportation plans are making the U.S.’s biggest private prison companies lots of money, with ICE set to spend billions more on detention. @petramolnar.com says the system “profits off misery” and @rachelbarkow.bsky.social credits a “targeted lobbying machine” for the profits. #Velshi

Trump’s border czar earned consulting fees from immigrant detention firm www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

This guy stole $10 million from the employees of his nursing home to buy himself a luxury yacht and Cartier watches. He PLED GUILTY. And because his Mom gave Trump $1 million, he just got a pardon. And this story barely makes the news today. WTF. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Our criminal justice system is just for Democrats and the poor If you are rich and/or a Trump supporter you know exactly what to do to get your Get Out of Jail Free card

Trump Is Stealing Money From Victims of Crime. Share.

Ukrainian children know what to do in the case of air alerts. In a normal world, this isn't a skill that children need. When you live next to an insane neighbor, such a habit can save you. Children deserve more reliable protection to sleep in peace: u24.gov.ua/sky-sentinel...

Under the Biden administration, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau finalized a rule barring medical debt from appearing on credit reports. Now, the agency is siding with the credit industry groups suing to have the rule vacated.

113,750 Ukrainians murdered by the Russian fascists in Mariupol in 2022 based on leaked data: Illichivskyi morgue: 87,000 dead. Novoazov Prosecutor’s Office database contains an additional 26,750 entries. Buried in mass graves. euromaidanpress.com/2022/08/30/8...

The most corrupt presidency in the history of the United States.

👀❗️

Overnight Russia’s mass strike hit Kyiv, Kyiv region, Zhytomyr, Ternopil, Dnipro, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Sumy, Kharkiv, Khmelnytskyi & Chernihiv—claiming 12 lives (including 3 children in Zhytomyr) and wounding 44. Homes, schools, malls and infrastructure were damaged across the country. Russian 'peace'.

Today is International Missing Children’s Day. As a result of russia’s full-scale invasion, 2,243 Ukrainian children have gone missing. Every child must be returned home to their families, and russia must be brought to justice — for every life stolen; every family torn apart.

Every Harry Potter book or shirt you buy directly funds the persecution of trans people. There's absolutely no excuse to support anything Harry Potter anymore unless you hate trans people.

❗️Already 150 cases of execution of Ukrainian POWs by Russian forces have been documented and the number is increasing — Ukraine's military intelligence reports.

The Trump Justice Department is failing to hold Boeing accountable. After two planes crashes and 346 deaths, Boeing gets a slap on the wrist. This deal sends a dangerous message that, under President Trump, corporate executives can put profit over safety and never face justice.

We don’t have to wonder how President Trump will line his pockets if the GENIUS Act passes—he's showing us now. Since Monday's GENIUS Act vote, his stablecoin’s daily trade volume has increased by over a BILLION dollars, or 1000%. The Senate can and must stop this corruption.

Apparently rewarding un-American behavior is American now

Shira Perlmutter's termination came shortly after the Copyright Office published a long-anticipated report on artificial intelligence.

14,000 babies face death in Gaza unless the blockade lifts. Statements won't feed them. Aid isn't arriving. Bombs are. The world watches, debates, and delays. Gaza's children can't wait for "concrete actions." They need action. Now. #3E

Well, well, well. Secretary Real World likes to shift the blame on Newark, but… www.cnn.com/2025/05/22/p...

Did you know that $100M in food aid is rotting in warehouses that could feed the entire population of Gaza for a month and half, but a 28-year-old at DOGE is holding it hostage? www.reuters.com/world/us-aid...

A Reminder Of When Republicans Shouted Down Biden and Called Him a Liar For Saying They Would Cut Medicare.

Gaza's main hospital is a grim tableau of malnourished children, their frail bodies a testament to the blockade's cruelty. Over 9,000 children treated this year, yet aid trickles in like a cruel joke. Starvation isn't looming; it's here. #3E

“As in the last Trump presidency, we see that purported deficit hawks are far more interested in securing large-scale tax cuts for the wealthy while raking the poorest Americans over the coals than they are in actually addressing our burgeoning national debt.” www.thebulwark.com/p/gop-modera...

Two days before President Donald Trump announced dramatic plans for “reciprocal” tariffs on foreign imports, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy sold stock in almost three dozen companies www.propublica.org/article/sean...

Good news: Donald Trump, who never lies, just announced he alone has reduced drug prices by 85%. Quick. Go to your pharmacy. Demand an 85% reduction on your drug prices. Tell them Trump sent you. If that doesn’t work, tell him to support the bill I'm introducing that'll do it.

The vast majority of people in Gaza — 93 percent — are facing crisis levels of food insecurity, and Sen. Chris Van Hollen said that the United States is “complicit” in their hunger.
