States have introduced more than 500 “anti-shariah” bills over the last decade, NYPD illegally spied on American Muslims for nearly a decade, antisemitic hate crimes are on the rise, anti-Sikh & anti-Hindu hate crimes are on the rise…so the DOJ makes a Task Force to Eradicate…Anti-Christian Bias🤦🏽‍♂️

Hey you know how people made the Tesla brand radioactively toxic and crashed its entire corporate structure? You can do that with authoritarian brutality and with neoliberal oppression and exploitation. You chase these motherfuckers from society until all that’s left is something real and better.

I'm sorry I know there's a lot going on but how are we not screaming about Ron DeSantis stealing $10 million from Medicaid and the money ending up with pro-DeSantis superPACs, funneled through a charity run by his wife? HOW IS THIS NOT NATIONAL NEWS? www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

Tennessee KKK GOPer Diana Harshbarger has referred to black 77 year old civil rights hero Congressman Al Green as “boy” which as we all know is inherently racist. Racism and cruelty has always been the point.

BREAKING NEWS: the President of the United States is a convicted felon! In all seriousness, why isn’t this a headline every day?

So... she goes to El Salvador now? I'm not sure how any of this sh*t works anymore.

Tom Emmer refuses three times to answer a question about if Trump has legal authority to deport American citizens (the answer is "no")

She should be in the oval office right now. And Donald Trump should be in prison.

Highlighting this case because as I said it’s not just hispanics. ICE is picking up anyone with a criminal charge even ones that were pardoned. This man is not a threat. blacknews.com/news/rodney-... blacknews.com/news/rodney-...

Van Hollen on Fox News Sunday: "My whole point here is if you deprive one man of his constitutional rights, you threaten the constitutional rights of everybody ... if you threaten the rule of law for one person, you threaten if for everybody in America."

Oh, WOW. Media, this one’s a lay-up.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

Roger Parloff on the "evidence" that Abrego Garcia is a gang member: "It's double hearsay stemming from a document written by somebody indicted for misconduct."

TAKE HIM ANYWAY? WTAF? www.newsweek.com/merwil-gutie...

You cannot legally send Americans to an El Salvadorian prison no matter what they have done. Plain and simple.

Get yourself a senator willing to rescue you in a foreign country after your messy president wrongfully deports you… …seems like a sentence I shouldn’t have to write in 2025 but here we are. Senator Chris Van Hollen leaves for El Salvador tomorrow to initiate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

This is something we can all do.👇🏼 File a complaint with the FL and DC Bar to have Pam Bondi disbarred for not complying with the 9-0 Supreme Court ruling to return Mr. Garcia from El Salvador.

The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

vance is a detestable liar and an open enemy of the constitution. the central load bearing factual claim here is completely false and even if it wasn’t the constitution contains two explicit guarantees of due process

Anybody heard from Marcellus Wiley and Stephen A. Smith on this one yet?

I watched this happen and knew I would have to come up with the words to describe it and its impact. As I read for inspiration I came across this, and Mr. Conway is correct here. This headline sums it up perfectly. Well done.

Trump doing the lean again.

Last night, US Judge Sweeney in Colo granted district-wide (state-wide) class habeas TRO to stop Trump from summarily removing aliens under his Alien Enemies Act proclamation. @ACLU attys had warned that, despite SCOTUS ruling, Admin won't commit to providing even 24 hrs notice. 1/2

No one flopped harder at pretending to be an “alpha male” than JD Vance. Every move is forced, awkward, and painfully try-hard. Zero delivery.

The constitutional crisis is here. The President is disobeying lawful court orders. His advisors and allies are cheering him on. And Kilmar Abrego Garcia remains trapped in a jail in El Salvador. youtu.be/HGTIELDTHOo?...

👇🏽👇🏽

Notice the difference in coverage? The @wsj.com accurately reports what the El Salvador president said. That’s a fact. The @nytimes.com, on the other hands, normalizes what the fElon “won’t” do. Not a fact. It remains to be seen in the coming constitutional crisis. The NYT fails again.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

"I think it's only a matter of time before [a state attorney general] figures out how to file state kidnapping charges against those that are abducting people who are in the country legally..." says former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley.

Wait, I missed the part where JD Vance told Bukele he needed to apologize for being disrespectful and unappreciative to America. 🤔 Separately, Rolling Stone f-n nailed this headline! 🔥👏🏻

I don’t think a better headline could have been written about what happened yesterday. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Leadership!

Absolutely

Why would the President meet with (and allow into the country) a head of state who refuses to return a person sent to their custody in error?

“Congress has never passed a voter-suppression law like this before,” @seanmorales-doyle.bsky.social , director of the @brennancenter.bsky.social voting-rights program, told Democracy Docket.

“It’s the most extraordinary attack on voting rights in American history,” Wilentz said. “This is an attempt to destroy American democracy as we know it. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/the...

#ProudBlue Avelo Airlines, where do you want to go for your next adventure? Maybe to a gulag in El Salvador? Avelo signs contract with ICE to fly deportees out of the US to a prison of ICE’s choice.
