We obtained lists of alleged gang members used by Venezuelan law enforcement and Interpol. Those lists include some 1,400 names. None of the names of the 238 Venezuelan deportees matched those on the lists. W/ @texastribune.org‬ @cazadoresdefakenews.info & Alianza Rebelde Investiga

It was never about deporting violent criminals. If that were true, where are the examples? Trump would be shouting the victims’ names from the rooftops. What we’re actually seeing are heartbreaking videos of families torn apart by masked men who look more like white supremacists than ICE agents.

The fact that Republican extremists want to continue to disenfranchise D.C. voters is simply racist. Make sure your Congresspeople know that you expect them to support statehood for D.C. Speak out for voting rights. Oppose voter suppression!

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is a reverse-Robin Hood nightmare. It steals from the poor to give to the rich. Here’s a survey of seven terrible tricks up the sleeves of the bill: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Scientists are already eyeing the exits; the hostility to international students could dry up a critical pipeline for a generation; and the balance of intellectual power could shift as other countries rush to fill the vacuum created by Trump’s nihilistic nativism. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Mike Johnson says no one will lose Medicaid "unless they choose to." Russ Vought says these cuts are “commonsense.” The nonpartisan CBO says: 7.6 million people will lose coverage. You can’t spin that away. Real people will suffer — and they know it. #MedicaidMatters

“As many as 2.7 million households would lose food benefits, with the average blow to the family grocery budget totaling $254 a month… “By design, the Trumpy Medicaid changes will remove 10.3 million people from their health insurance, according to the CBO…” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
