#ProudBlue #MomSky We are seeing this daily from way too many in Congress. The GOP has completely given up their power to the Executive branch. Every single one of them needs to be primaried.

NEW: The Trump administration, via a senior State Department official, says Kilmar Abrego Garcia is alive in El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison. But they still won't say if they're doing anything to get him back. Details w/ @joshgerstein www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

HAPPENING NOW: The Justice Department has missed a 5pm deadline to file details about Kilmar Abrego Garcia's whereabouts and efforts to comply with a judge's otder to facilitate his return. Still waiting to see if they're just a few minutes behind or not planning to file at all

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC. Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

they are busy insider trading

No! Stop this, major media! That’s _not_ what just happened! DOJ at _no_ point made _any_ commitment to “bring Garcia home,” nor did it ask for “more time” to “bring Garcia home.” It said that Garcia is in the custody of El Salvador and the court has no jurisdiction there. Get it right, dammit!

Remember JD Vance's birth certificate states his name as James Donald Bowman. Does this mean he can't vote? Or does the SAVE Act just target the female population?

NEWS: Consumer sentiment PLUNGED 11% this month to a preliminary reading of 50.8, the second-lowest reading on records going back to 1952. April’s reading was lower than anything seen during the Great Recession.

@pelosi.house.gov - time's running out.

yeah man, please make my 85 year old great aunt prove her citizenship to vote in rural georgia, this definitely isn’t reminiscent of anything in the american past

The European Union and China are now starting negotiations to abolish EU tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles. This is a major strategic failure for the United States.

📌Keep an eye on Maine's Jared Golden. Once again he voted WITH Republicans to take away people's rights and HURT them in supporting this disgusting SAVE Act. 📌I lived in Maine and understand the politics in that state, but I will never understand hateful, cowardice bastards like Golden.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a major voter suppression measure that, if it became law, could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters and badly undermine U.S. democracy. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

United States Disappeared Tracker: 1214 and growing. public.tableau.com/app/profile/...

That’s because there weren’t any.

imagine being this pathetic, servile and eager to gulp up the slop

🚨 NEWS: The White House confirms the tariff on Chinese imports is now 145%—not 125%. Reminder: tariffs are taxes on imported goods, which means Americans end up paying more.

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

It's long past time to ban insider trading in Congress.

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

He voted for this. And losing a fortune daily.

Stock market decimated. Bond yields skyrocketing. Dollar declining and prices up. The most self-destructive, wealth-destroying act of any modern administration. Businesses have lost all confidence. Today, I am calling for a reset of the President's economic team, beginning with Lutnick.

Think about how much of an entitled prick you’d have to be to think calling other human beings “peasants” when you’re the Vice President is an ok thing to do. The world’s worst diplomat strikes again. Also: we don’t borrow money from them. That is nonsense.

The simultaneous crash of the stock market and the bond market is super ominous. But also a totally foreseeable consequence of this insane tariff policy. So is it incompetence or part of a plan to crash the economy? An increasingly important question.

78 million people voted for that asshole just to ‘own the libs.’ Instead, he’s fleecing America—and dragging them down with him. Great job, folks.

We are one people living on one planet. Isolationism, racism, & nationalism are backwards, regressive relics. Progress will require an evolution of consciousness. We must move forward, united in love, cherishing & protecting this miracle globe we call Earth. This is our home. This is the way.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident. We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

Honestly, I'm just so over these goons wanting to roll us back to the Bronze Age

@judiciarygop.bsky.social TIME TO IMPEACH

Raskin: He destroyed more than $10 trillion in American wealth in a single week. And then he went golfing and bragged to America about winning the tournament at his own golf course. That's like bragging about being endorsed by your own campaign manager. So much winning

Cantwell: "You're telling us in your testimony you want a tariff on semiconductors. I'm saying that the last administration and this organization here passed the CHIPS and Science Act so we could reshore semiconductors. You're not going to win the innovation economy by tariffing semiconductors."

Pictures worth a thousand words...

America might be the seventh thing he bankrupts with the way he’s running things.

Q: 60 Minutes found 75% of the migrants who were sent to El Salvador do not have criminal records. That true? BONDI: They're not Venezuelan migrants. They're illegal aliens from Venezuela who should not have been in our country Q: So you're confirming they didn't commit a crime? BONDI: *leaves*

Chief Justice John Roberts is pure evil.

The U.S. must follow due process. If this administration is going to deport people, make sure they're actually criminals. The stakes are too high to make mistakes. Abrego Garcia should be returned immediately.

It looks like they are really doing this. Wow this is nuts.
