The Trump administration is kidnapping and trying to deport American citizens who look “foreign.” No warrant. No due process. No rights. Americans voted for cheaper eggs, not for a night of broken glass. #MAGAKidnappers

I've never had less faith in my government to protect its citizens, be a faithful ally, de-escalate conflict, or safeguard our environment and planet. There is an aura of doom and sheer incompetence that surrounds this administration and I'll neither forgive nor forget those who voted for this hell.

It is time for state and local governments to arrest masked officers who won’t produce warrants and who have no proof someone is undocumented. Kidnappers should be arrested and indicted and tried for kidnapping and serve the many years such sentences carry.

Late term abortions are NOT birth control for women. There’s always a reason. Civilized countries are getting that. Why can’t the US Congress? 🎁 wapo.st/4nlEMf0

In a lengthy exchange, with ICE Deputy Field Director Bill Joyce, Reps Nadler and Goldman are denied the ability to visit the 10th floor. Joyce says it's not a detention facility it's just a place ppl are housed for several days w/out beds.

For those unconditionally cheering the attacks on Iran, remember that our early strikes in Afghanistan and Iraq were “successful”. But we ended up getting dragged into costly wars that created more terrorists than we killed. The American people haven’t forgotten that.

A lot of anti-Tesla self-driving posts today, as the first trial for Cybercab Robotaxi service starts next week in Austin, TX. Remember, human drivers kill 40,000 and maim/injure 800,000 every year in the US alone.

I’m seeing a lot of people posting about how sick they are with a “summer flu” Main complaints? Fatigue, extremely sore throat, fever and loss of smell. It’s Covid. The Nimbus variant is here & appears to be more transmissible. It’s time to wear a respirator, clean the air & stay home when sick!

"As former ACIP members, we are deeply concerned that these destabilizing decisions, made without clear rationale, may roll back the achievements of US immunization policy, impact people’s access to lifesaving vaccines, and ultimately put US families at risk of dangerous and preventable illnesses."

Trump is using every American's savings as his personal piggy bank. The numbers may not change, but the value of those numbers is crashing. That's what it means when the price of everything goes up; your buying power, and the value of a dollar, goes down.

Reporter: Have you called Gov. Tim Waltz? Trump: “I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out. I’m not calling. He’s a mess. Why would I call him? The guy doesn’t have a clue. Why waste my time?” Imagine refusing to call a governor during a nat’l emergency. This #BlueSky #MedDky #NewsSky

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

If immigrants are freeloaders, why is ICE kidnapping them from their jobs using data gathered from their tax returns? 🤔
