And Jesus is saying...

ICE kidnaps Albuquerque man... “They just pulled him out of the car, threw him on the ground, putting their feet on his back and head.... lifted him up by his neck and forced him into the truck” He disappeared and is not listed as being in custody Reports @patricklohmann.bsky.social

We have a constitutional obligation to provide oversight. To ASK QUESTIONS. And for our questions to be met with handcuffs is UNACCEPTABLE.

Horrid!

He’s like a kid in the 8th grade who didn’t complete his homework assignment offering up lame BS explanations to the teacher. He couldn’t even get the FBI budget done on time and has no timeframe for having it done. These people are grossly incompetent. bsky.app/profile/atru...

The first 100 days of the Trump administration have been a failure for the American people.

US Senators from every one of these states—AR, TX, KY, MO, OK, MS, TN—(1) approved Trump/Musk/Doge cuts to NOAA and FEMA, and (2) said Calif would need to change its internal policies before getting federal help for LA fire disaster. Every one of these US Senators happens to be MAGA/GOP.

Stay woke and angry and organized. 👊🏿

A second child has died of measles amid an outbreak in west Texas, sparking a rare rebuke of the Trump administration’s top health officials from a Republican senator on Sunday.

Good day to remember that DOGE has already lost the US government at least half a trillion dollars this year alone. And likely more.

The worst!

Mass layoffs at Health and Human services today. No more research on Alzheimer's. Top researcher of bird flu epidemic fired. Thousands of experienced scientists dismissed. Madness.

“These professional podcasters stand in front of a bunch of career scientists and say ‘What has science ever done?’ I don’t know, science eradicated measles until two months ago...” www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

We. Have. Power. We cannot allow those who want to hoard our power convince us otherwise. One tool of our collective power is casting ballots. Today is Election Day Wisconsin, Florida, and Mississippi! Find your polling location: blackvotersmatterfund.org/vote

Well, they lied. Obviously.

Bennet: Did you know the President’s Middle East advisor was in Moscow on this thread? This sloppiness, this incompetence, this disrespect for our intelligence agencies and the personnel who work for him is entirely unacceptable. It's an embarrassment

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

Thank you!

That's funny!
