BREAKING: El Salvador refuses to return Abrego Garcia and Trump refuses to facilitate his return, Marjorie Taylor Greene made a lot of money because of Trump's tariffs pause, and Trump defies another order. All the news you missed today. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

Another plane crash? A small plane that was headed to Columbia County Airport in Hudson, New York crashed in a field killing 6 people onboard, including Karenna Groff, the 2022 NCAA woman of the year. I’m sure that guy from The Real World is on top of it. 😔

Every single member of Congress, Democrat or Republican, needs to impeach and expell this crime against nature. He is sincerely setting up a dictatorship, and you motherfuckers are watching, doing nothing. Some are clutching pearls, which means jack shit. Fuck every enabler of this scumbag.

If Democratic congressional leadership don’t lead an en masse halt to all legislative business after today, I don’t know why they’re worth supporting. What moment could more demand a response of intractable and tedious opposition? Shut it all down, and refuse to budge.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

This should terrify and offend anyone that supports the Consitution, the rule of law and our system of checks and balances. Also, remember that they want to ship American prisoners to foreign prisons as well. And if they do, they have no plans to EVER bring them back.

They see. And they don't care.

I guess it’s good to know that the next Democratic president can ship Trump and his cabinet off to a Central American prison without a trial and we won’t ever have to worry about them coming back.

Drain the swamp, eh? Every single time a Republican makes an accusation against someone - they’re really confessing their own misdeeds.

NEW: Amid increasing reports that U.S. citizens have been caught up in the Trump administration’s immigration dragnet, a dozen members of Congress have written to the government with pointed questions. None has received a reply. By @nicolefoy.bsky.social

The attempt to burn down the Pennsylvania Governor's mansion is pretty clearly an assassination attempt, and it's likely an antisemitic hate crime. It should be referred to that way by political media.

Big numbers like this lead to local quotas and the desire to fill them which leads to haste and abuse and lawlessness and terror. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

North Korea? What a fucking idiot. And giving them credit for “the greatest rally in stock market history” is the most technically true but substantively false thing anyone could say.

Trump tried to bury this story on a Friday night, but it’s extremely important: He’s planning to take land on the border controlled by the Dept. of Interior and sign it over to Dept. of Defense so migrants “would have trespassed on a military installation,” resulting in harsher punishment.

This is SOP for this corrupt and ignorant administration. Don’t test for things and they don’t exist. Don’t record a statistic and what it was measuring doesn’t exist. Make shit up and then hide anything that contradicts it.

Jeanette and her cuck husband should be thinking about the innocent Ukrainian civilians killed on Palm Sunday by Russia, too. We should offer Hamas Rubio, Hegseth and Musk in exchange for the hostages.

What's a Bill of Attainder? Maybe look no further then Trump's Executive Orders directed at former Trump I officials Miles Taylor and Chris Krebs that look like attempts to declare criminal and civil liability by legislation - exactly what the Constitution forbids - youtu.be/3mMm0nGx0R0?...

Spending MORE to do less.

An allegation of gang membership is not a conviction of a crime. Every human facing legal consequences is OWED due process. I hope Trump, Musk, Rubio et al. are taught about due process personally and individually soon.

Stunningly hypocritical given Trump’s past statements. Never forget he said of John McCain: “He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” This was before people like Rubio, Graham & others sold their integrity at the altar of Trump to cling to a shred of power.

First - 224 pounds? Nobody believes that. lol It mentions his “frequent victories in golf events” as evidence of his “excellent health”. lol It’s also telling that his temperature happens to be the mythological “normal” of 98.6. “Scaring” from a gunshot wound? File this memo under fiction.

Republicans don’t want people to vote. When voter turnout is high, they lose. Plus, women aren’t going to remain supportive as the realization of conservative laws start to sink in. So, making voting harder for women, gay married men & transgender people with 1 law is perfect for their goals.

These signs are glorious!😂

Republicans standard response. They can’t answer direct questions honestly, so they answer with a canned response to deflect and try to attack someone else.

Make it make sense

Just another day in Trumpstopia. I hope enough people wake the fuck up to what they’re doing before it’s too late. This is going to be a very sad chapter in future history books.

They really want a white Christian theocracy. Fuck them and their imaginary friend.

He needs to be stopped. Do you fucking enablers not see what’s happening?

If you still support Trump, I have zero respect for you and I hope your life is one of the ones destroyed by his policies.

oh shit this got me emotional. this is America!

She wanted to sneak in, kiss his ass and sneak back out. She got caught. Fuck her.

“A future Trump impeachment seemed all but guaranteed by last Wednesday morning. It seems only slightly less likely now. It may even be desirable to restore America’s standing with creditors and trade partners.” Wow the woke media outlet of (checks notes) The Wall Street Journal??

😂😂

Cruelty, pure and simple. www.usatoday.com/story/news/e...

I would hide my face in shame if I were her, too.

Remember when they accused FEMA is systematically withholding funds from MAGA folks? Every accusation is a confession with these motherfuckers.

Why should service members be immune to the greed and disdain of this administration?

Trump's EPA just moved to reverse state and local bans on toxic "forever chemicals" that can lead to birth defects and cancer.  So much for "Make America Healthy Again." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/05/trump-pfas-toxic-forever-chemicals

This makes sense. Remember that Trump said if we’d just quit testing for Covid, we would have very few cases, if any. He’s a fucking idiot, and the Republican party put him in charge.

I seem to recall Republicans making the (FALSE) claim that FEMA under Biden was doing nothing to help North Carolina. Where are those folks now?
