The worst happened. We were DOGE’d. Our NSF funding is gone. So now there’s nothing stopping me from sharing Expert Voices Together, a crisis response system for US-based researchers and journalists facing harassment. It's a true passion project. 🧵 1/ expertvoicestogether.org

@cnn.com Is it really that difficult to point out blatant lies and disinformation? It’s the least you owe to your viewers. Or can anyone come on the airwaves and spew lies on a news program intended to inform the public? If so, you’re in the entertainment business; not journalism.

#58 Kilmer should be home honoring his wife and mother. The administration admits his detention was a mistake, and SCOTUS told him to return this US lawful resident. @nilc.org @vanhollen.senate.gov @cnn.com The media can do a better job of standing up for democracy.

I get it. We’re sick of this administration, and we have a long road ahead. We must take a breath. Stay non-violent or stay home and recharge until you can commit to non violence. We don’t win if we become like our opposition.

Day 57: The lawlessness of this administration, to send a US resident to a foreign torture prison without due process is unacceptable. They admitted to an 'administrative error' and SCOTUS ordered him to be returned to US. @aclu.org @immigcoalition.bsky.social @vanhollen.senate.gov

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

Also, we need a law that requires law enforcement to be barred from masking their faces. WTF is that about?

NEW: Chaos at the ICE detention centre in New Jersey. Newark Mayor Ras Baraka has been arrested by the DOJ after Members of Congress (apparently being shoved by agents) attempted to include him on a visit. Baraka has opposed the facility, saying it opened without permits. (🎥 News 12 New Jersey)

Day #54: Trump is not following SCOTUS order to facilitate Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return home. How much more evidence that we are in a Constitutional crisis do you need? Networks should have a "Days Detained Without Due Process" calculator on the nightly news. @msnbc.com @cnn.com @cbsnews.com

@leahgreenberg.bsky.social We’re talking about dolls instead of gutting healthcare and cutting back on social security services which are the immediate threats at the moment.

Day #52: When @kristenwelker.bsky.social asked Trump if he agreed that every person in the US is entitled to due process he said he didn't know because he's not a lawyer. He took an Oath to the Constitution and the Supreme Court ruled that he violated Garcia's due process. @nbcnews.com

This is a violation of the Constitution. Article 1 Section 9 gives Congress the sole power of the purse Article II Section 3 requires the Executive to follow the laws It is beyond time for the House of Representatives to invoke Article 1. Section 2.

AOC: Trump said they were only going to go after the “criminals” however their position is that everyone undocumented is a criminal.… On top of that, they’re not even just going after undocumented people, they are making people undocumented by revoking legal status.
