I will NEVER forgive those of you who put him in power and did this to us… Never.

US citizens. "All these people are U.S. citizens who were detained, deported or otherwise swept up in immigration enforcement actions under the Trump administration’s intensifying crackdown..." www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

“We realize this is a sensitive and complicated topic..." www.12news.com/article/news...

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick says regular folks won't mind if one of their Social Security check doesn't show up. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Americans ready to retire don't care about "day-to-day" market fluctuations. These people are robber barons with no empathy for normal people.

Good news!! 🥰 #MomSky

Oh well in that case

“It took 75 days of Donald Trump’s second presidency for voters to hit the streets en masse. Millions of people showed up this weekend for more than 1,200 anti-Trump demonstrations—all of them peaceful—throughout all 50 states, from Alaska to Alabama to Arizona.” www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

There's something weird happening where The Discourse about the tariffs is about how Trump is trying to return us to 1950's and 1960's, the manufacturing heyday of America, but he's not! He' been very very explicit about this. He wants to return us to the 1890's. That's a different project!

you know things are going well when they break out the turnip photos

Are you READY?! 🤚 Let’s. Do. This. 😎✨

White House: we want reciprocal tariffs Vietnam: fine, let’s do zero percent White House: fuck you Absolute clown car administration

Let them know we're getting fed up

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

NEWS: Chief Justice John Roberts has issued an administrative stay pausing the court order requiring Kilmer Abrego Garcia, a man wrongfully sent to an El Salvadoran prison camp, to be returned by midnight tonight.

BREAKING: EU Commission proposes 25% tariff on US goods effective May 16

"His office leadership instructed appointees to act as servers for a multicourse meal. They dispatched a US Park Police helicopter for his personal transportation. On at least one occasion, a staffer was told to remake the cookies because the batch was subpar..." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Stock market in complete limbo, retirement savings disappearing, farmers facing devastating uncertainty… and he went golfing. If he ran a company the way he ran the country this weekend, he’d be fired.

Three children and their mother have been released from federal custody after being detained by immigration enforcement agents last month at an upstate New York dairy farm.

The Supreme Court is morally bankrupt.

UPDATE: The Supreme Court has paused a deadline to return a Maryland man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador, after a federal district judge ordered the administration to bring him back by tonight.

This is now the worst three-day performance for the S&P 500 since October 1987.

NEW: Yesterday, the Justice Department sent armed marshals to warn former U.S. pardon attorney Liz Oyer not to disclose internal DOJ information during her Senate testimony. Today, Oyer is speaking out to condemn the DOJ’s actions and defend the rule of law.

Reminder: We are not at war with Venezuela. The people deported are not enemies. The law in question should not apply. Among the most dangerous aspects of the SCOTUS ruling is the idea that the president and his people have the right to arbitrarily determine who our enemies are.

lol

The cruelty is the point

NEW: Kilmar Abrego Garcia "sits in a foreign prison solely at the behest of the United States, as the product of a Kafka-esque mistake," his attorneys write in their brief to the US Supreme Court. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24...

"If the admittedly mistaken word of someone somewhere in the vast government bureaucracy is enough to pluck a man from Maryland and deliver him to a foreign prison in mere days—what is there to protect lawful immigrants, American citizens, or anyone?"

"After the last soldier was found, the Lithuanian government planned a procession for the soldiers’ departure on Thursday, with schools closing early and thousands lining the streets of Vilnius." That's behaving like an ally.

We need more people like Jasmine Crockett in Congress, period.

House Speaker Johnson is eyeing big cuts to Medicaid. Nearly 40% of the people in his district in Louisiana rely on it

We have power!! Together!! Don’t forget!! Keep it up!! #MomSky

I worry that the Trump Administration is fighting so hard not to have to return Abrego Garcia from their El Salvador concentration camp because they know he was already killed there.

NEW: Chief Justice Roberts has issued an administrative stay in the Abrego Garcia case, temporarily relieving the Trump administration of its duty to return him from El Salvador. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

very excited to learn that the constitution allows the federal government to disappear people to foreign gulags beyond the reach of any judicial remedy

The North Carolina Supreme Court temporarily paused a lower court’s ruling to disenfranchise tens of thousands of voters in the state’s Supreme Court election, unless they fix their ballots in 15 days. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

When I was in a high school creative writing class, I had a character say, "Las Vegas means 'The Vegas' in Mexican" to convey how ignorant she was. Still works.

NEW: The Venezuelan military says it has raised its alert level following the discovery of an alleged U.S. plot to fabricate an incident at an ExxonMobil offshore platform in the contested waters between Venezuela and Guyana to justify an armed conflict.

⚠️ U.S. MARKETS PLUNGE AT OPEN

China continues trolling the US with new videos. Here’s one - “US sweatshop factory”

A big Democratic gathering in Fulton, Missouri — population 12k. Rural Democrats are here. We have always been here.

“TOM HOMAN TOOK OUR KIDS.” That’s what the signs read in Sackets Harbor, NY, where 1,000+ people rallied behind a local dairy worker and her three children after ICE detained them in a cruel enforcement action. Now, thanks to the community, the family is finally coming home. ✍️ @tusk81.bsky.social
