PHILLY: Man posing as an ICE agent robs car repair business, ties up and manhandles a woman from the Dominican Republic — “He kept saying he is immigration officer.” It was only a matter of time before these masked vigilantes breed impersonators. www.fox29.com/video/1501153

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

I hope legacy media covers the connection between last night's memecoin dinner and this morning's social media tariff threats. He's manipulating the stock market.

House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it. I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

Researchers studying the impact of permitless carry have demonstrated that the removal of gun regulations has an immediate, devastating effect on public safety. And this law promoted by Donald Trump will do exactly that.

So many videos are circulating of ICE agents acting with cruelty and aggression. Behavior that eerily mirrors the “domestic terrorism” they claim to oppose. No one is forcing them to act this way; it’s a choice.

America was founded on the basic protection against unlawful imprisonment. Due process is a fundamental right in our constitution. Denying it or defending those who deny it is unamerican and illegal.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs isn't justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

@aoc.bsky.social: "They're saying cut $880 billion from the Energy & Commerce Committee. I sit on that committee. Almost the entire budget that Energy & Commerce explores is Medicaid and Medicare. There is no way they can make their math square without enormous and devastating cuts to Medicaid."

The DOGE guys didn’t just make one $8B mistake in their savings list — “they are getting it wrong with alarming consistency” They don’t seem to understand how these things are calculated. 🧵: x.com/electricfutu...

3rd of federal workers are veterans. The federal government is largely a jobs program for them. This is who Trump and Musk are hurting with their callous, non-targeted DOGE cuts. We’re going to see a lot of Jobless vets.

Watching Day After Tomorrow and realizing we no longer have (a) government employees to predict freak storms (b) climate experts to advise us how to survive or (c) the possibility of taking refuge in Mexico. welp.
