The unlawful detention of Mahmoud Khalil is one of the most extreme threats to free speech in 50 years. Trump is sending a message that people who speak out will be punished — but we have a message for him, too. We'll see you in court.

Like making a man a political prisoner because his statements didn’t align….

If you’re in the US, you can watch PBS for free using the app. There’s a series of documentaries called American Experience that’s really good—each is about a different event in history. Go watch The one about the Gilded Age in season 30. It feels so familiar, it’s genuinely eerie.

Get the dictator outta DC! He cannot jail someone for political reasons.

Our current government is being run by Robber Barons. It wasn’t enough for them to fool people through “business” now they are stealing directly from us.

He’s a f&$)) moron and the repugs approved him.

No respect.

After the most disastrous first month of any President in history, Trump will do everything he can to distract you tonight. He will try to convince you that culture war issues are important. None of these things lower gas prices, improve job numbers, or put food on the table. Don't take the bait.

I'm looking forward to catching up LIVE with Stephen Colbert tonight. Feels like there will be plenty to discuss! Tune in to the Late Show at 11:35 pm ET.

The Supreme Court, in its first ruling on President Trump’s use of executive power during his second term, decided that he cannot, for now, dismiss the government lawyer leading the watchdog agency responsible for protecting whistle-blowers.

Dark Pence is back.

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

Red states are hurting. But they still believe they’re special…..

Lock him up!

The 50501 Movement has planned protests at all 50 state capitols and the U.S. Capitol on Presidents’ Day at noon. While mainstream media isn’t covering it, many YouTubers have stepped up to provide coverage.

I believe!

Tommy Tuberville: "There is no dictatorship here other than Donald Trump saying, 'this is not gonna happen.'"

Musk seized access to sensitive Treasury data, incl Social Security and Medicare payment systems. Musk controls millions of Americans' highly sensitive personal information with zero accountability and the power to unilaterally stop payments for programs that he, and he alone, deems "wasteful."

Article 1 Section 8 CONGRESS shall have the power... To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water; To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations NOT THE PRESIDENT. NOT DOGE.

Accurate.

RFK Jr. is a danger to public health. Every Republican senator who votes yes will own the consequences. When RFK Jr. follows anti-vax conspiracies instead of science, when he greenlights Trump's anti-abortion agenda, when he cuts healthcare for seniors — remember who voted yes.
