Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 97 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (or video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

“I’m here today because this is something I can do against Trump. I lived during the Nazi time in Germany and they put me in a concentration camp,” he told interviewer Shannon Powell, co-founder of Indivisible Westchester. “Trump is trying to imitate Hitler. That’s what I’m afraid of.”

Sparta, but with pizza delivery and big TVs.

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

These people in "government," they just say stuff. Then media repeats it, like these threats are real. And then the next day, something else. But, no. None of this is legal or constitutional. The only way they succeed is if #wethepeople let them.

"Ice did not respond to other questions about the case, including whether officers had a warrant or any documentation of a criminal record for Sotelo."

Tomorrow morning on my live webcast, “History Matters:” Violence as “Politics” I’m a historian who specializes in political violence. I have a lot to say. Friday 10AM ET NCHEteach.org/conversations

Here we go again. I'm watching cable news begin their annual hysteria over Social Security "running out" in 8 years. Apparently, the U.S. government would be incapable of writing checks to seniors if the "trust fund" runs out. We need that money for tax cuts and Presidential airplanes.

Yes. People in opposition to this reign of terror need to stake out what the consequences will be for participating in it

The SCAM PACs are coming out of the woodwork again. And it's just everything wrong in politics. If you see anything from "The No Kings PAC" here are a few things you should know. 🧵

Motion to change hearing format, allows immigrationhearings to happen via Zoom, where there is, one hopes, less chance of being kidnapped by secret police and rendered to a different country

100%. A through-line through the last five months is that uncertainty is Donald Trump's personal comfort zone, where he feels *his* power is maximized. But in basically every domain in which he operates uncertainty *in itself* is damaging to everyone else involved.

This is what I've been saying. Netanyahu feared Trump would make another deal with Iran that would not include the total destruction of Iran's nuclear program, so he did what he's wanted to do for years: bomb Iran. The question now is can he bully Trump into joining him.

Yellow cake 2.0!

When ICE agents look like this, it is ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for state and local law enforcement to step in and demand they identify themselves and show judicial warrants before detaining anyone from an immigration court. Democratic mayor and governors can take action on this.

I have long admired @meredithmeredith.bsky.social, but this elevated my regard even more. Now, get back on the porch with the little dogs @askbillmitchell.bsky.social before you get really hurt.

The Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill will be disastrous for American families, with massive cuts to crucial aid programs that serve vulnerable populations like children, the elderly, and people with disabilities.
