He declared an "emergency" at the border in order to abduct people of color. He declared an energy "emergency" in order to bypass vetted permit approvals for oil and gas companies. He declared an "emergency" with trade in order to leverage companies with 'tariff exceptions'. Get it yet?

F you Dan Bishop But since you're an idiot, let me provide you with the definition of Insurrection: noun; a violent uprising against an authority or government. Thoughts and prayers to those who were injured yesterday 🖕🏽

No matter what this Administration tells the American people, the law is very clear: Members of Congress have a legal right to enter any DHS detention facility to conduct oversight without prior notice - something I’ve done twice this year without issue.

I can't stop laughing. 😂

"Under the annual appropriations act, lawmakers are permitted to enter 'any facility operated by or for DHS used to detain or otherwise house aliens.' The law is clear that members of Congress are not required 'to provide prior notice of intent to enter a facility'..." www.cnn.com/2025/05/10/p...

Make it make sense

Something I hope everyone covers this tomorrow notes is that...the President has no authority whatsoever to make trade deals without congress. None. Not even the pretext of one.

Do your job, Sean.

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

😕

This sums it up well.

Share This With Everyone, Especially his supporters…😊💙

“Fraud, waste, and abuse” is a perfect description of the toddler holding court today in what appears to be Liberace’s powder room.

NASHVILLE: “We’re doing everything right to have a better life.” Here LEGALLY, her husband is missing after the ICE/@TNHighwayPatrol raids. She’s selling her car to pay for an attorney. @GovBillLee @TNDeptofSafety who is this helping? Shameful. Full: www.newschannel5.com/news/wife-de...

NEW: Tulsi Gabbard, now the US director of national intelligence, used the same easily cracked password for different online accounts including a personal Gmail account and Dropbox over a period of years, leaked records reviewed by WIRED reveal.

Very Well Said..

She can win in a ruby red district, but she'll get creamed state-wide.

This is Day 24. Still 0 deals.

Louder for the voters in the back!

This is a shockingly mistaken understanding of due process by Stephen Miller. It is likely this misunderstanding that is informing the President’s misunderstanding.

Pass it on…

Even *if* you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d *still* need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented. His argument fails even on its own terms.

The only proper reaction 👇🏽

We’re in a constitutional crisis, the markets are tanking, unemployment is on the rise, his tariff extortions are a disaster, a nasty recession looms on the horizon, and he’s polling lower than salmonella… …so naturally, he thinks it’s time to glam up Columbus Day.

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.

DOJ personnel don’t comment on anything beyond the four corners of a charging document in order to avoid prejudicing a defendant’s rights. Here’s the policy. The Attorney General of the United States violated it yesterday.

America’s biggest enemy is infiltrating our nat. security systems, kidnapping/human trafficking/exiling our residents/citizens incl. toddlers & kids w/ cancer, destroying our food safety, & arresting judges. It costs us $3 million every time he golfs. 4 #GOP Senators could stop him. #RemoveTrump

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM

HAPPENING NOW: A HUGE crowd of protesters march through the streets outside an FBI office in Milwaukee in support of Judge Hannah Dugan (Video: @unraveledpress.com)

Trump has deported a four-year-old US citizen with a rare form of metastatic cancer without medication or consultation with their doctor.

So, uh, it certainly looks like DOJ intended to file a letter to Judge Liman in MTA v. Duffy, but….it accidentally filed a letter containing its legal advice to the Department of Transportation instead storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
