Would love to have reporters dig into this incident, which is reminiscent of the Portland arrests of protesters in black vans. My additional question: did these black vans even have government plates?

Das ist skandalös, Julia Klöckner. Wenn das Regenbogennetzwerk des Bundestags beim CSD für Vielfalt wirbt, ist das kein Verstoß gegen die Neutralität, sondern gelebtes Grundgesetz: Gleichheit, Würde, Freiheit. Das darf Bundestagsmitarbeitenden und -Netzwerken nicht verboten werden.

Harry Enten on Trump's bill: "The amount of disapproval for this bill -- holy cow, my goodness gracious! We're talking about 29 points underwater ... we're talking about a negative 41 net favorability rating among independents. You rarely ever see proposed pieces of legislation as unpopular"

The law is clear: Members of Congress have explicit legal authority to conduct oversight of federal detention facilities, without notice or approval. Yet, when my colleagues have attempted to peacefully enter ICE facilities, they’ve been denied entry – a direct violation of federal law.

Just days ago, Brad Lander called me to interpret for an Arabic-speaking asylee whose case was approved, yet ICE was still harassing him inside the building. Brad personally escorted him out to safety. He does this kind of work quietly, every day.

America is one of those countries where if you host a global sporting event, inclusive messages have to be censored to so as not to anger the central government. In this case the message is “racism is bad” www.nytimes.com/athletic/643...

Troops at partisan rallies and performing questionable missions are caught in the crossfire—they are not the source of the problem. The problem is with both political and military leaders. And this is where the reckoning must begin.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

It would be so great if Democratic Party elected officials would start acting as if they’re living under a government that will lawlessly kill or arrest them for the crime of political opposition.

Wir werden diese Legislaturperiode erleben welchen Schaden eine Bundestagspräsidentin anrichten kann, die ihr Amt parteipolitisch, strategisch ohne Scham und Rücksicht ausübt. Die Blaupause dafür beobachten wir bei Populisten auf der ganzen Welt. Den Schaden trägt vor allem die liberale Demokratie.

Dürfen Queere Menschen öffentlich für ihre Menschenrechte demonstrieren "oder soll man es lassen"? Unsere "Aber Normal" Klöckner möchte die Bundesregierung in dieser Frage lieber neutral positionieren. Und in ein bis zwei Jahren sind dann alle schockiert über den Zerfall der Menschenrechte.

If a pregnant woman is brain dead, in a coma, and no longer has rights to make decisions about the pregnancy according to E. Bruenig, that means we don’t have a say in what happens to our organs and corpses after we die. We are public property upon death. Quite an argument!

It has been four days since Kristi Noem, the head of the department of homeland security, said this in public. If meant literally, it describes the end of democracy in California. If not meant literally, would be nice for that to be clarified and for the troops to leave. bsky.app/profile/just...

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

The reason life expectancy used to be low was mostly because so many children died. Equally important to note, from things we can vaccinate against now. And the declining life expectancy in the US is driven by huge increases in young people dying NOT because people are living slightly shorter lives!

Trump has been negative on immigration twice; after the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, and after the Stephen Miller quotas went into place and sparked unrest. This is a sign people should be leaning into his outrages to highlight how terrible they are, not running away from the issue.

Has anyone gotten to the bottom of whether Boelter was radicalized in a religious school or overseas, and are we deporting the people who associated with him to El Salvador for their ties to gang violence?

🚨Stephen Miller gets his way. Just a few days after Ag. Sec. Rollins convinced Trump to briefly back down, quotas and indiscriminate raids are back. Farms, restaurants, and hotels are now subject to ICE raids again, with intense pressure on ICE to hit 3,000 arrests a day. Miller remains in charge.

this is a fantastic ruling but it's deeply depressing that the clearest-eyed condemnation of this administration's actions has come from the judges tasked with ruling on their legality and not the press ostensibly tasked with speaking truth to power

It's pretty irritating how many pundits would hear the ideas "I want to shove 100 live scorpions in your mouth" and "I want to shove 0 live scorpions in your mouth" and sagely declare: "The wisest course of action is to let someone shove 50 live scorpions in your mouth."

Trump raked in $57M from his family's crypto company in 2024. And this doesn't even account for his memecoin, which launched this year. Now he's lending his name to "Trump Mobile," a new wireless phone service launched by the Trump Organization. The grift never ends.
