“Schmidt being “violently interrogated” at Logan Airport for hours, and being stripped naked, put in a cold shower by two officials, and being put back onto a chair.” Whatever happened to #abolishICE? It needs to be abolished. This is torture.

This is not law. It couldn’t withstand legal scrutiny. Don’t comply in advance university presidents. General counsel, don’t panic. Do law, not vibes.

Every day, a new low.

Republicans are voting today to cut healthcare for 72 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. Dems, don't give them even one vote.

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity. You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

I was here two weeks ago... currently it's 17 Fahrenheit outside my house.

NATIONAL ARCHIVES UNDER ASSAULT: They’re coming for our history. The US archivist & staff resigned after Trump officials pushed to replace them w/loyalists. Not just records you’d expect—slave records, immigration records, Native American treaties—all at risk. Will they rewrite or destroy history?

NBC News confirms: An IRS employee affiliated with Elon Musk's DOGE has accessed an IRS system that holds sensitive taxpayer information. @msnbc.com

Excellent post

FINALLY we are seeing some pushback from SOMEBODY! Lawyer up, Donnie

The Air Force will stop teaching recruits about the Tuskegee Airmen after an order from Donald Trump. The Tuskegee Airmen were the first Black US military pilots and excelled in combat during World War II.

They…turned off…National Institutes of Health grants? That’s nearly $50 billion of scientific research.

But we gots em here,!! @thecure.com @robert.thecure.com

What I imagine the White House looks like right now

Trump rescinded Biden's Executive Order to lower prescription drug costs for Americans, which will be devastating for tens of millions of people. We need to stay focused on issues like that—not on the shiny, offensive distractions like Elon's weird salute.

It's Friday. And on Friday... DANCE, we must? 😩
