Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

Never before in America, on Easter weekend, did the question “what would Jesus do?” have more meaning. And some who think they can worship trump and Jesus do not understand Jesus, if here on earth, would be in El Salvador.

Head Start, an early childhood education program for low income families, is on the chopping block. Growing up, my own mom was an aide with the program; it’s helped countless young mothers, including the one who tells her story here. www.kqed.org/news/1203596...

One thing donald Trump does do is expose people for being absolutely disgusting opportunistic snakes with no allegiance to ideology or America. First Rudy, now Marco...it's enlightening.

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

MAGA idiots have been tricked into surrounding Tesla dealerships nationwide, their presence alone is deterring potential buyers and collapsing sales. Psyop successful 👏

MLB asked Jackie Robinson to turn the other cheek against the vile racism he received when he integrated, but didn’t have the guts to stand up for him against the Trump administration that tried to erase him. My latest on SPOLITICS youtu.be/GGjn8ERT_Ew?...

"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action. "It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us." www.nbcboston.com/news/politic...

Trump defying a 9-0 Supreme Court decision is the reason I say "if we still have free and fair elections in the United States" when I talk about 2026 midterms.

It’s crazy to watch Donald Trump be more comfortable with authoritarians than America’s allies.

In court filings Thursday, 30-year-old Rümeysa Öztürk for the first time described the circumstances under which she was taken by federal immigration officials — and how she’s been treated during her imprisonment. (via @wgbh.org)

The Society for Historians of the Early American Republic is asking the public to help them track changes the Trump Admin is making to history-- in national parks, websites, wherever. Please share-- and please contribute! thepanorama.shear.org/2025/04/09/t...

🚨🚨Please share this far and wide to make sure everyone from NC sees this. Don’t let the GOP steal this election that Riggs rightfully won!

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

Donald Trump and DOGE are waging war on Social Security. They call it reform. The truth is a lot more sinister. Check this story out from my good friend, Patrick Murphy: substack.com/@patrickmurp...

Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford on her victory, and to the people of Wisconsin for electing a judge who believes in the rule of law and protecting our freedoms.

One of many moments in Omar El Akkad’s new book, “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This,” that will stop you in your tracks.

Trump’s changes to Social Security will slash 7,000 jobs, shut down offices, and make folks jump through hoops to get what they’ve already earned. Seniors, disabled people, and rural communities—y’all are the target. This is not efficiency, it’s straight-up cruelty.

Xavier transitioned and became Vivian Jenna Wilson. She is alive and well and lives in Japan. No loving parent would ever write such a disgusting thing as this, and it speaks volumes.

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations. When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ❤️

Target is facing a 40-day consumer boycott starting Wednesday over the company’s shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies.

This is precisely what the Democrats should do at Shitler’s address to the joint session of Congress. 👇🏻👇🏻

When you think of Nazi Germany the good Germans that didn’t vote for Hitler aren’t the first to come up in your heads. The same goes for the US or Russia. Don’t want to be represented by evil? This is your turn to show what you would have done under Nazi rule.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Hearing from Community Partners International, which works from Myanmar to Bangladesh, that USAID cuts mean 14,000 people with HIV losing access to lifesaving meds and a total stop in all HIV and TB screening. So many people will die due to these chaotic, sudden, horrifically implemented cuts.

The People's Union USA, a grassroots group, is calling on Americans to join a national boycott by not shopping for 24 hours on Friday.

Katherine Graham stood up to Nixon. Jeff Bezos bows down to Trump. Decline is a choice.

You know… Congress and the senate could always pass resolutions calling Russia the aggressor, supporting NATO and calling for a Ukraine victory. Just sayin…. Stop tweeting start forcing.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk. Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️ thehill.com/media/514849...

Virtually all of this is good advice to anyone, citizen or noncitizen, on how to deal with law enforcement.
