Please read, this is important. Sorry it’s long. Trump’s move to have Elon Musk step aside wasn’t a retreat. It was a distraction. With Musk’s name out of the headlines, many assumed the controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had quietly ended. It hasn’t. It’s just changed hands.

Congressional Republicans know they're letting Convicted Felon Donald Trump become a dictator, yet they sit there and allow him to do so. A more spineless and ball-less group of people would be hard to find. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #TrumpIsACriminal wapo.st/4dQh5Hm

I get a daily email from NEJM. A staggering number of articles discuss the Trump "administration's" impact on low-income and immigrant patients and clinicians struggling to care for them. Patients who have been victimized are being victimized all over again. www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

So tired of this bullshit. 🟠 voters loved what he did the 1st time when he separated families. They voted for more violent measures the 2nd time - moms and dads kidnapped, kids in zip ties, US born cancer stricken children deported. All disappeared. FFS, at least be honest, m’fers. YOU did this.

Don't spend one minute feeling sorry for the law firms that capitulated. They prioritized their own profits over the rule of law, decency and democracy. They deserve the ridicule and scorn they are now receiving. History will remember them for the cowards they are.

People are pissed this morning because we exposed Peter Thiel. We’re under constant attack, but that’s expected. The greatest threat to the Trump administration is an informed public. That’s why they rely on secrecy and distraction. But we won’t look away.

A lot of government workers go unnoticed—until they’re gone. The problem with letting the ultra-rich call the shots is they don’t see us. To them, we’re disposable… until the day they need clean water, a working 911 line, or someone to put out the fire.

The Trump administration is working with private companies like Palantir to create detailed reports on every American, which could help them weaponize our personal information in their quest to deport immigrants and punish critics. This is a huge threat to our constitutional rights.

Raw Story: Trump's decision to launch a war on the Federalist Society after all they've done for him by packing the courts with hardcore right-wing judges has some conservatives wondering what he could be thinking. Elect a snake, expect to get snakebit! #ProudBlue #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

These people were following the law and went to check in with immigration like they are supposed to. This woman's immigration case was dismissed, which made her immediately undocumented. So ICE took her into custody. The air conditioning was off in the back of the truck. "I can't breathe."

Hiding their faces, hiding their names by using pens to hold their pocket flaps up, hiding their names. ICE agents have “consciousness of guilt,” know they are committing crimes. They need to be unmasked, named, and charged #UnmaskICE

SCOTUS has allowed the Trump administration to end a program protecting immigrants from deportation. At least 500K people are left not knowing their future in the U.S. “Thousands of people—especially Haitians, Cubans and Venezuelans—instantly shift from ‘lawfully present’ to ‘deportable,’”

If they are actually going to enforce deportations in FL at job sites then the construction industry in FL will grind to a halt. Until they can replace those employees with US-born workers willing to work outside in the summer in 100 degree heat & humidity. Should be no problem.

MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen. Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy. She’s lived here 48 years. They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her. She. Is. A. Citizen.

Another win!!! Now release him. A federal judge just ruled that the law used to detain Mr. Khalil is likely unconstitutional. Why? Because it’s too vague and was never meant to apply to someone like him a U.S. resident who never left the country.
