One of the people the Trump administration is about to deport is an English-speaking Venezuelan guy who says he's been here since high school, graduated, that he has a job, and says he's never done anything that should make him be deported (presumably he means no criminal record).

Important to remember: Freight volume isn’t just a trucking issue—it’s an early indicator for manufacturing, retail, and employment trends nationwide. A collapse here signals ripple effects that could reshape local economies, job markets, and consumer prices. Pay attention; this affects us all.

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

If you're a reporter in a White House press briefing as the spokesperson for the government asserts flatly that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang who's guilty of human trafficking and you sit there silently without shouting out "PROVE IT!" I'd like to invite you to go fuck yourself.

Trump officials have been ordered to testify under oath about repatriating Kilmar Abrego Garcia. "There will be no tolerance for gamesmanship or grandstanding," said Judge Xinis. "To date, what the record shows is that nothing has been done. Nothing."

“To date nothing has been done,” the judge, Paula Xinis, told a lawyer for the Justice Department. “Nothing.” The stern words came during a hearing in Federal District Court in Maryland, where Judge Xinis said that she intended to force Trump officials to answer questions.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

Hey remember we have a death camp and Trump wants 5 more and to ship more Americans there. Act like it.

I full-throatedly endorse invading El Salvador to liberate Americans from the death camps. Trump is temporary. Anger is not.
