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 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

It happened again... When Trump arrived at the Pope's funeral there was no acknowledgment by the thousand gathered But when Zelenskyy arrived the crowd broke out in impromptu applause Same thing happened when both men appeared at the reopening of Notre Dame The world doesn't abide Putin's puppet

When I was at Duke with Miller, the Campus Conservatives had a periodical called "New Sense" and for the first few years I thought they had actually done something vaguely clever and I talked to Stevie once about it and he genuinely did not realize it was a pun.

We’re gonna have like five Suez crisises at once

Wow. Naval Academy prof to their 3-star Admiral in his letter of resignation: "your legacy will be that of a careerist who banned Maya Angelou but retained Mein Kampf"

Law professor with a reminder that “deported” is a legal term that you don’t apply to an illegal process.

At least one of the following things are about to happen: - Shortages if suppliers decide they can't eat the costs - Price increases to the customers At least one, but possibly both

What happens when the wealthy pay their fair share in taxes like everyone else? We can invest in a stronger, fairer America — where every kid has a quality education and families aren’t bankrupted by one medical diagnosis.

So well said.

Make no mistake, this is a targeted attack from this criminal administration designed to stir up fear, and intimidate. Classic behavior of a dictatorship. #Resist #UnitedBlue #ResistanceReborn

i’m glad this shift is happening but damn does seeing stuff like this make me realize the average americans genuinely close to braindead

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Macron shook one hand.

Just reposting this to say if you’re attending the WHCA dinner tonight, you’ve earned the flotilla of fuck yous that’s coming your way. Here, let me get it started: fuck you.

It is not unfrequent to hear men declaim loudly upon liberty, who, if we may judge by the whole tenor of their actions, mean nothing else by it but their own liberty, — to oppress without control or the restraint of laws all who are poorer or weaker than themselves. Samuel Adams

A useful way to think about his tanking poll numbers is that they would be far worse if more people knew what he is doing

After the Steelers selected Derrick Harmon with the 21st pick, his voice cracked on a conference call as he shared the news. His mother was on life support at a local Detroit hospital. Harmon was able to tell his mom he got drafted on Thursday night before she died.

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense. Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

At this juncture I’d like to point out: * we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing * there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world * a united approach could stop the climate crisis But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

I'm just a simple country lawyer but I don't think you should deport a two-year-old

There is a special place in hell waiting for Marjorie Taylor Greene. It is extra concerning that there are people that support her. She is beyond pure evil.

Next Up: Pam Bondi will order the arrest and abuse of journalists in order to force them to identify their sources.

A massive study of 50,000 households over 1,000 archaeological sites provides ample evidence that inequality is not a "natural" outgrowth of sophistication. Instead, it is a political choice. Which means, kids, that we don't have to choose it. archaeologymag.com/2025/04/stud...

the word 'deported' is being pretty commonly misused

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, good news, the judge has been released!

Here's an interesting political cartoon I found for tomorrow's video. Any guess who drew it? (Hint: It's either obvious because you know what he did before he became famous for something else, or it is obvious because it is indeed the guy who in the same style later in his career.)

Lots of people I know that were furious about kids having to wear masks are real quiet about a two year old citizen being wrongfully deported

wait...a wat

Who could have known that the anti-migrant moral panic would be used as a pretext for a larger expansion of autocratic police power? Who, I ask you?

Is Pete Hegseth in rehab yet?

In their silence against Trump, business leaders are saying their fear and idolatry of the dollar trumps all. Their silence is cowardice. www.profgalloway.com/breaking-the...

Q: Stupid or cruel? A: Yes

Earth Day is a chance for us to recommit our focus to preserving and protecting the environment. That work never stops in Illinois. And thanks to partners like Green Era with their new campus, we can continue to lead as an example of community redevelopment and sustainability.

If you’re attending the White House Correspondents Association dinner tonight, be sure to come prepared with a joke about the toddler cancer patient they just disappeared despite her being a citizen. Otherwise it’s going to be awkward when you’re mugging for photos with Stephen Miller.

rfk jr as hhs secretary is the kennedy curse hitting the entire country

Trump and tariffs is basically just Michael Scott going all in and losing the first hand at Casino Night. Toby is China.

Trump and his administration have lost seven cases so far today.

Do not obey in advance to a wildly unpopular one term president who is currently fighting wars on multiple fronts for seemingly no reason
