Pretty sure this should tell you all you need to know about the veracity of the DOJ's charges against Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both drake

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

Why aren’t Dems on everything talking about the Joni Ernst “you can die” bill?

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

Do not listen to RFK Jr. on covid vaccines for pregnant people. Listen to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, which STRONGLY recommends a covid vaccine during pregnancy, for the health of the pregnant person and the fetus. 🧪 www.acog.org/covid-19/cov...

To our American friends who may now be struggling to find health information on US websites: Please check out the Public Health Agency of Canada's website for helpful resources, updated dashboards & practical health tips. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 canada.ca/en/public-he...

Yet another example of this administration’s depraved indifference to human life. This betrays all morality, fact and science. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/24/c...

Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

Is the media aware that Joe Biden is no longer President? Because I have heard more about a book on his age than I’ve heard about the fact Republicans are about to gut healthcare for 8.6 million people.

Just learned today that 92% of US import consumption is dolls for beautiful little girls. Higher than I would have expected!

The Department of Central Planning and Child Rearing has figured out the optimal number of dolls and pencils each child should have to make beautiful Republic.

Five former National Weather Service directors have taken the unusual step of signing onto an open letter warning that cuts to the organization by the Trump administration may soon endanger lives.

A federal judge on Friday permanently blocked an executive order from President Trump targeting the law firm Perkins Coie, declaring it unconstitutional.  Judge Howell’s decision is a win for the law firm and will serve as a model for judges. #MomSky #Voices4Victory www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Trump and his incompetent Secy. Of Health & Human Services, have plans to gut research funding for cancer & Alzheimer’s. This travesty will keep our country sicker. That’s #TheCostOfTrump.

“we will force your entire bloodline to toil in the mines for the benefit of my descendants” may not be the best political messaging

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

At this juncture I’d like to point out: * we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing * there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world * a united approach could stop the climate crisis But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

This entire interview is something else. Check out, confused, lying, doesn’t seem to have any grip on the facts at issue in anything. time.com/7280114/dona...

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

This happens in North Korea, Russia, and now it's happening here. MAGA is not American.

The Trump administration is terrorizing families, denying due process, willfully violating the law and court orders—and now they’ve arrested a judge. This is fascism.

I often think about what could have been had the Supreme Court not stolen the election from Gore.

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.

For me, a small gesture in this brief video shows what kind of person Pope Francis was. Story below.

wonder if we're going to see axes of inequality widen considerably in the short and medium term between people who can afford food, medicine, cosmetics, etc that employ private third party quality control vs. people who have to take their chances with what's affordable

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

Good job team America www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

[guy who smashed a window at the capitol] “he made a mistake and was doing what he thought was right, let’s pardon him and give him back the fine he paid” [guy who stood outside home depot] “why would we bother with a hearing before sending him to the el salvador terror prison”

NEW: In agency after agency, the U.S. government is losing its capacity to measure how American society is functioning, making it much harder to gauge the nature and scale of the problems we are facing and the effectiveness of policies. By @alecmac.bsky.social

I've been thinking of the import of focusing more attention on how central Stephen Miller's stupidity is to all of Trump's immigration abuse and Ed Whelan (of Brett Kavanaugh defense fame) is already there.

American Meteorological Society (@ametsoc.org) just issued a (fully justified) dire statement regarding rapidly accelerating & potentially disastrous efforts to decimate weather & climate enterprise in U.S. If implemented, this would cost many lives & cause major/ long-term economic harm.

Just so I am keeping everything straight…the government can’t tell you to wear a mask because FREEDOM!!!!, but it can decide you are a “terrorist” and send you to a foreign gulag without due process and throw away the key. That right?

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

The president told a Central American dictator to build five more massive slave labor camps to hold US citizens.

What we saw today was two jumped up thugs and their bootlicking sychophants laughing at the US Constitution, the supreme court, and the idea that anyone can stop them from doing anything they want www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
