Kilmar Abrego Garcia Indictment Led to Chief Prosecutor’s Resignation Over Concerns Case Was Pursued for ‘Political Reasons’ https://twp.ai/4inAMd

Something tells me that when the Deputy Chief of Staff at DHS tweets to his 1.3M followers that Abrego Garcia is a criminal terrorist monster who will serve a long prison sentence, that might taint the jury pool. @aclu.org

It was on Normandy's beautiful beaches at the crack of dawn on June 6, 1944, that the Allies finally gained a foothold in France, and Nazi Europe began to crumble. Freedom was at risk — and to defeat Nazism, 47 nations worked together, heroically, for an ideal much greater than any one country.

“Sources said the administration is specifically considering a full termination of federal grant funding for the University of California and California State University systems…The UC system is the state’s third largest employer, and both systems are major engines of research…”

Outrage, fatigue… Vought over DOGE? Abandoning our allies? Masked ICE agents, kidnapping grandmothers, high school kids, dishwashers? Trump making billions? Giving away our Social Security information to 23 year-old coders named Big Balls? Shutting down science? Selling NPs? Yes it’s too much

Scenes like this were DIRECTLY caused by Stephen Miller's wailing that ICE can't arrest the number of people he promised they would arrest (bc he lied abt how many criminal aliens there are).

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man the Trump administration acknowledged was wrongly deported to El Salvador, is on his way back to the US, ABC News reported Friday

💯 this

Really shocked that an admin filled with podcasters, social media influencers, reality TV participants, indicted felons, crypto bros, drunks, Fox hosts, drug addicts, weirdos, and unqualified ass kissing toadies can’t keep their shit together for 24 consecutive hours.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

Fitting for today’s cat fight.

Who is Leonard Leo? He's a lawyer, but he's never argued a case in court. He's never held elected office. But for years he rebuilt the American legal system, resulting in the Supreme Court's right-wing supermajority. By @andykroll.bsky.social‬ (Published Oct. 2023)

Very good question.

Look beyond Trump and Musk's public blowout to the bigger problem: the infiltration of Big Money in our politics. It has corrupted our democracy — creating a vicious cycle that funnels more wealth and power to those at the top while drowning out the needs of regular Americans.

what a battle of the People Who Will Never Shut The Fuck Up this is going to be

Kudos to the bird that managed to shit an image of itself onto this bloke's car.

Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."

If you had told me the bitchiest moment of Pride Month would be this...

This goes out to those who are standing as allies with Trans people. In the comments are a few supportive comments I pulled from the petition for those who thought we should drop the “T” for votes!

It's been overtaken by the Musk-Trump feud, but this session with Merz continues Trump's streak of the most embarrassing/appalling Oval Office meetings with foreign leaders in modern U.S. history.

IDGAF about space advances IDGAF about AI IDGAF about human achievements as a whole Until we have every person housed and fed at bare minimum we have FAILED as a species... Period.

once again I must tap my own sign

In a single afternoon, Musk called for President Trump's impeachment and accused him of being "in the Epstein files." In turn, Trump threatened to cancel billions of dollars of contracts with Musk's companies.

Fake Agency DOGE is actually going to cost us money. youtu.be/-8YREs4vmUA?...

1/ New in the Abrego Garcia case, the Judge has just granted his lawyers' request for permission to file sanctions against the government, which is very unusual.

Democratic candidate Keishan Scott has won the special election for South Carolina's 50th State House District, defeating MAGA lunatic William Oden by over 41 points in the same district that VP Kamala Harris won by only 5 points. More of this please. 💙👏

hahaha our shitty legislators passed a law barring the display of any non-official flags on state property (including schools) in an effort to limit rainbow flags, so my city just voted to adopt the pride flag as one of our official flags. happy pride y'all!
