Pathetic: ABC’s GMA, World News Tonight, This Week, CBS’ Mornings, Evening News, Face the Nation, NBC’s Today, Nightly News, Meet the Press, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, and The Wall Street Journal all failed to cover Trump's new office for ethnic cleansing.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Newsom: This Saturday, he's ordering our American heroes, the United States military, and forcing them to put on a vulgar display to celebrate his birthday, just as other failed dictators have done in the past

We feed you. They hunt us.

Masked agents making warrantless arrests with a “do what you need to do” mandate. "In Irvine, Calif., ICE agents drove a phalanx of military vehicles ... seeking a resident’s son who had allegedly posted fliers alerting neighbors to the presence of ICE agents" www.wsj.com/us-news/prot...

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

A Bronx high school student was abducted by ICE at his immigration court date and has since been disappeared across four states in five days in order to evade contact with his lawyer. The US is now undeniably a rogue state. www.chalkbeat.org/newyork/2025...

71 years ago, Brown v. Board of Education affirmed a simple truth: separate is not equal—and every child deserves a fair shot at success. We must honor its legacy by ensuring every child gets equal access to a quality education.

Big story of the week? --WH wanting to suspend habeas corpus --Illegal gestapo like round-ups nationwide --Arresting and intimidating public officials --Economic chaos, lies and weakening economy --Turning the corruption up to 11 --Destroying US healthcare protections --Gutting American science

Whatever DOGE might hope, accessibility can’t be ignored. All of us will experience some form of disability in our lives, and following best practices for accessible design makes the experience of interacting with government better for everyone.

This is a lie

"Another officer, frustrated, says, 'They don’t need a warrant.' Finally, one of them tells the truth. Due process is not a matter they’re concerned with. The deportation must proceed. Trying to stop it is the unlawful thing"—@billshaner.bsky.social in Worcester www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

how every dem elected official isn’t losing their damn mind right now is beyond me. they want to arrest all of you!!!!

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

this guy hates this country, its laws and its traditions

As trucks carrying vital supplies pile up at border with Egypt, hungry children look through rubbish for food.

A baby girl dies of malnutrition and dehydration in Gaza City after two months of Israeli blockade on the Gaza Strip.

seems kind of weird that the vice president of the united states is openly supportive of german neo-nazis!

“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?” - A guy walking ahead of me with his friends on a NYC sidewalk in 2021, also my favorite overheard dialogue of the entire pandemic

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

If it weren't for the tariffs, this would be one of the biggest stories right now.

“It’s the most extraordinary attack on voting rights in American history,” Wilentz said. “This is an attempt to destroy American democracy as we know it. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/the...

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

Can we get more of this? “The Japanese American National Museum will ‘scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI. “Our community is based on diversity, equity is guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and inclusion is what we believe in,” Fujioka said.

Bringing back manufacturing, specifically of high value, strategically important goods, is in the national interest, but it’s a mistake to look at this as a jobs program. Modern factories are highly automated. The actual jobs we need are in home building and childcare/eldercare.

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people. We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

Reminder: no matter how many times Republicans say otherwise, there is *no way* they can pay for their proposed tax cuts without gutting Medicaid and other programs that millions of people rely on. Don't believe their lies for a second.

I am interested in hearing from people still left at the Administration for Community Living about the status of programs for @motherjones.com. My signal is juliametraux.49.

Indeed.

I've created a shareable document with a list of the HHS offices gutted today that I'll be updating as often as possible. Have something to add? Message marisakabas.04 on Signal or email [email protected] docs.google.com/document/d/1...

This seems bad. Does it seem bad to anyone else?

Look in the mirror (as I'm suire you do often, Gavin). You have made yourself toxic. Your suit isn't empty; it's filled with a Fetterman. California Governor Newsom Says the Democratic Brand Is ‘Toxic’ www.nytimes.com/2025/03/29/u...

If fighting against the privatization of the post office is your lane, NOW is an excellent time to plug in. Facilitate a teach in about the USPS in your communities. Thanks to @deborahrosereeves.bsky.social Everything you need to do it is here: usps-teach-in.carrd.co

"It is the Republican president’s latest salvo against pillars of society" is right.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

The people responsible for this should be fired directly into the sun www.nytimes.com/2025/03/26/h...

At the Mike Lawler empty chair town hall in Peekskill, 102 year old Dee in danger of losing her Medicaid, heard FDR on the radio in 1935 when he created Social Security. @indivisible.org

This is what Reagan did with his "welfare queen" rhetoric. And it created enough public hostility toward welfare recipients that even Democrats embraced an anti-welfare agenda and revamped the program to punish families rather than supporting them in a time of need. Don't let that happen again.

there were multiple reporters outside of the institute of museum and library services today as DOGE invaded their headquarters, but not a single elected official. something to consider when thinking about who’s actually defending democracy.

the last decade has really helped me understand in a more visceral sense what it meant when God hardened the pharoah’s heart

No they do not, New York Times! This is like writing that Santa Claus has IBS.

A midwife has been arrested on felony abortion charges in Texas. She faces up to 20 years in prison. jessica.substack.com/p/breaking-t...

Mahmoud Khalil is not the last. He is the test run. The Alien Enemies Act is not just about immigrants—it’s about whether the government can declare entire groups of people as threats and erase them from public life. www.cnn.com/2025/03/13/p...
