Lawyers for the Venezuelan immigrants seeking to block the Trump administration from summary deportations under the Alien Enemies Act sum up their argument this way in brief to the DC Circuit Court of Appeals: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEWS: Judge Boasberg, chief federal district judge in DC, has abruptly blocked an anticipated effort by President Trump to use an invocation of the Alien Enemies Act to remove Venezuelan nationals. He set a hearing for this afternoon.

When you read these stories, always remember Elon Musk called his own immigration status a "gray area" when he came to the U.S. as a student. Musk dropped out of school and started doing things his student visa didn't permit.

ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed. No one knows why he was detained.

Donald Trump has illegally invoked The Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a wartime authority, to detain and deport Venezuelan immigrants he deems to be members of criminal gang Tren de Aragua. This was last invoked during WWII to justify the internment of Japanese-Americans.

That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history! Arlington National Cemetery has removed information about prominent Black, Hispanic, and female service members, as well as topics such as the Civil War, from its website.

another element of schumer's fuck up; trump gave a speech at the DOJ today saying that news orgs that publish criticism of him are committing a crime this should be a ten alarm scandal but no one is paying attention because schumer mismanaged things so badly he made himself the main character

This is so heartbreaking

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Congrats, they heard you! The Social Security Administration has decided tonight to abandon its plans to end phone service for millions of Americans filing retirement and disability claims. Thank you to all who shared our post and made calls today—you did it!

NEW: Across the country, Americans are organizing against the administration's antidemocratic orders. The organic nature of these actions creates the basis for strong opposition in the months and years to come, @guitarwatson.bsky.social writes.

Trump freezes $1 billion in food aid given to local schools and food banks. Non-profits first reported the freeze on Tuesday. This is from the party that claims to represent "Christians" in the US! THEY DO NOT! Wake up Church! You are asleep in the Light! www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

The White House Press Secretary just wrapped up her press conference, and let’s be clear—the White House is gaslighting you as the country burns. Here is everything you need to know.

Proud of all of you worldwide! The boycott is working—Tesla shares are now in their seventh straight week of declines, marking the company’s longest losing streak since going public in 2010. Look at the stock today—beautiful work!

It’s the 60th Anniversary of “Bloody Sunday” at Selma, and thus the 10th anniversary of President Obama’s speech there, my favorite of all his public oratory, although it reads differently now. 🧵 time.com/3736357/bara...

Every time I read a story like this I recommit to be louder and more defiant.

If Russia wants peace, they should end the invasion.

(WSJ) - The world economy could face a crash similar to the Great Depression of the 1930s unless the U.S. rows back on its plans to impose steep tariffs on imports, a senior official at the International Chamber of Commerce warned. @wsj.com www.wsj.com/economy/trad...

Is this what they meant by a Red Wave?

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a real hero!

I met with President Zelenskyy before his meeting with Trump and Vance. As always, he expressed his gratitude for America's support for the people of Ukraine.   He has something Trump will never have or understand: courage and principle. Every American should be outraged⬇️

A federal judge in Washington, D.C. extended a block on Trump’s blanket freeze on all governmental grants and loans, saying the administration’s actions were “irrational, imprudent, and precipitated a nationwide crisis.”

BREAKING: A federal judge in California has ordered OPM to rescind memos calling for the mass termination of probationary employees, saying the agency overstepped its legal authority and must inform other agencies it lacked the authority to issue such a directive.

She was 11 years old. This is the result of the hatred and racism that so many are proud of spewing. Where is her justice? www.wilx.com/2025/02/20/1...

Target's shareholders lost $15 billion of net worth in their holdings of Target common stock when Target announced they were dropping DEI initiatives.

Glad Trump had the chance to waste millions of taxpayer dollars to fly over the Daytona 500 and then ride The Beast on the track as parts of West Virginia, Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Tennessee are underwater. Priorities.
