It is wild how approximately 70% of the entire nation has lost its shit over a racialized Muslim man whose egalitarian mayoral platform of rent freezes and free busses is barely a drop in the bucket compared with leftist capitalist Finland, and hasn't even won a general election, let alone governed.

Trump tried to indefinitely detain Mahmoud Khalil for protesting—but a judge just ordered his release on bail. Meanwhile, Harvard fought back, sued Trump for interfering in its affairs, and the judge ruled in Harvard’s favor. A perfect reminder: caving to MAGA isn’t necessary. Resistance works.

As the Senate’s resident privacy hawk I have to recommend against giving Donald Trump your most sensitive health data

On the Ben Franklin Parkway, they keep coming and coming

The head of FEMA who said he didn't know there's a hurricane season is a white man with no prior experience managing natural disasters who got his job despite his lack of qualifications in large part because of his race and gender.

The federal budget is our money– not my money that was stolen from me and your money that was stolen from you, but OUR money, pooled from a bit of each of our incomes, so that we can fund the country we all share. Where do you want your money to go? www.patheos.com/blogs/steelm...

this guy hates this country, its laws and its traditions

don't forget that his mother's side of the family were documented nazi sympathizers, who moved to south africa specifically to enjoy apartheid and write screens about global Jewish conspiracies!

Jasmine Crockett isn't being quiet about it—when it's time to elect the next House Oversight Committee ranking member, she wants the job. And she’s earned it. Let's back up @repjasmine.bsky.social . We need her voice in leadership—ASAP!

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care? There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

We hadn’t won World War II by May 8th. I know because my family and I were still in an internment camp in Tule Lake, California.

Trumpty-Dumpty is defunding PBS. What he calls "bias" some of us call "facts Trumpty-Dumpty doesn't like."

Oof

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

“I’ve never missed a court appearance. I’ve never missed an appointment with immigration or ICE,” Daboin Rall said. “The truth is: I don’t have any criminal record. I’ve done everything correctly according to the rules of this country.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

👇🏽🎯

Congress literally created an Alien Terrorist Removal Court for the expeditious removal of aliens who are designated as terrorists, under a preponderance of evidence standard. I think problem isn’t the time it would take, but the fact that the government would have to produce actual evidence

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

No criminal charges were filed against Mohsen Mahdawi And apparently the Trump administration has asserted no legal basis to deport him-other than Marco Rubio’s say so If this doesn’t scare you Remember-they’re trying to revoke birthright citizenship So they can deport ANYONE they wish

Way to go, Wisconsin! You elected Judge Susan Crawford to the Wisconsin Supreme Court AND You showed Elon Musk that democracy-and integrity Can’t Be Bought Plus-given how this election will stop the GOP from gerrymandering Congressional districts You might have ALSO saved democracy in America

Retweeting this for no particular reason @annecaprara.bsky.social

Crockett: Pam Bondi, if you have an issue with terrorism, maybe you should talk to your boss about locking back up those guys that he let out that participated in January 6th.

He’s threatening the constitutional rights of Americans. He’ll eventually get to the 2nd one…

Again, Jews were less than 1% of the German population in 1933.

When Republicans say "These tax cuts will pay for themselves" reporters should treat it the way they do "Trump won the 2020 election," as a proven lie that requires IMMEDIATE refutation in the reporter's voice, to make clear that they have repeated this assertion for decades and it never happens.

It’s a huge mistake for Donald Trump to fire thousands of IRS workers while people are filing their taxes. But don’t just take my word for it — seven former heads of the IRS, including Trump’s first term pick, are ringing the alarm bell.

The same GOP lawmakers who believe citizens should be armed to protect themselves from assault want the woman dragged from a public town hall in Idaho to be ticketed for biting the men who threw her to the floor, dragged her outside, and zip tied a man who tried to intervene.

YES THIS VIDEO

He nails it.

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

For all you who continually whine “I’m not racist, I just think we need to have standards,” this is absorb this.No Black man could become head of the Joint Chiefs without meeting the standard. What they want is to harden a system of affirmative action for white guys.They what their grandfathers had.

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

This is a shameful way to treat our fellow citizens who are public servants. This doesn’t make America great.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...
