You've never seen anything like this. truthsocial.com/@danielbrock...

@kaitlancollins.bsky.social I liked your question to Trump about due process of law for the persons transported to El Salvador. I liked your interview with Tom Homan, and your excellent persistent questioning: did he have evidence? had there been judicial process? were court orders obeyed?

Today House Republicans, cheered on by the richest person on Earth, passed a budget framework that will cut support for the poorest people in our country. All while cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and massively increasing the deficit.

I liked Lisa Mutkowski's speech advocating restoring authority over tariff taxes to the Congress, rather than giving a single man sole discretion. Sheadvocates for the Grassley-Cantwell bill youtu.be/fyL8rWE_ri8?...

A play in two acts.

My message to Mr. Trump on tariffs truthsocial.com/@danielbrock...

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

the U.S. government is targeting legal noncitizen scholars, not on the basis of any wrongdoing, but as part of a larger assault against an educated public.

Being snatched off the street for your opinions. I'll say it again. We are deciding, right now, whether the aspirations we hold for this country are finished. Whether we're going to let these hoodlums and grifters throw what's left of the American idea into the garbage for their own profit and gain.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

AOC: We need to be taxing the rich on the floor of the Congress We need to be establishing guaranteed healthcare on the floor of the Congress We need to be passing a living wage on the floor of the Congress

If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.

“If, during the Cold War, the government funded universities as a way of strengthening America, Mr. Trump’s second administration treats them as a threat to be dismantled.” We must resist this deadly attack on the very foundations of free thought and open inquiry. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/16/o...

Putting this into perspective: The government says that any [presumed] member of [what the government deems to be] a group can be deported so long as [the government asserts that] it is advancing the interests of a foreign country against the interests of the US [, regardless of citizenship status]

Important academic work was deleted from a site dedicated to patient safety because it mentioned the LGBTQ community, two Harvard Medical School professors said in a federal lawsuit filed in Boston on March 15. search.app/5mR6rE9rQj9J...

After years of GOP alarm over unelected bureaucrats pulling the strings, what better example can you find than DOGE? www.wired.com/story/doge-i...

Just to be clear… Trump has no mandate

With his permission, I'm sharing Dean Treanor's response to Ed Martin's letter:

This is a great letter. Pitch perfect.

"Elon will do the cutting" is going to end up in a lot of legal briefs. Thank you for that one, Donnie

@hcrichardson.bsky.social What does TPDR mean?

Former SSA Commissioner @martinomalley.bsky.social: It's interesting to me that the people that are going after waste, fraud, and abuse would do away first with the division, whose job it was to guard against improper payments, waste fraud and abuse... This is totally irresponsible.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Trump inherited a Goldilocks economy. But he may destroy it faster than even pessimists imagined paulkrugman.substack.com/p/surprise-c...

We love a good "put up or shut up"
