President Trump’s federal government shake-up is taking a toll on the capital’s economy

Happy Easter to those who celebrate. The Pope was like, “Nah, I’ll sit this one out.” Sent his deputy to teach JD Vance about compassion… DAILY BEAST: Pope Francis has repeatedly rebuked the president’s mass deportation effort, callingit a “disgrace” and a “grave sin.” This video tho 😂

“Sinners” reportedly takes the lead at the Easter weekend box office with an estimated $45M, beating out “A Minecraft Movie”

NEW: The first excerpt from my book HUBRIS MAXIMUS details how Elon Musk raged over a Tesla death investigation in a 27-minute phone call, threatening to sue, eventually hanging up on the chairman of the NTSB. When the line went dead, investigators were stunned: "He hung up on us.” wapo.st/4jdONIx

More on this: "The changes will leave Hegseth without a chief of staff, deputy chief of staff, or senior adviser in his front office...'There is a complete meltdown in the building, and this is really reflecting on the secretary’s leadership.'" Via Politico

On left: Alito says SCOTUS didn't need to act because DOJ's Ensign informed Boasberg no deportation planes were "then planned" for Saturday Then planned. Hmmm. On right: Ensign actually informed Boasberg, "I’ve also been told to say they reserve the right to remove people tomorrow" (Saturday)

so I guess for the foreseeable future I’m going to have to wake up every couple of hours in the middle of every night to refresh supremecourt.gov to see if anything new has happened in the ongoing case of 𝙐𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙨 𝙚𝙭 𝙧𝙚𝙡. 𝘽𝙪𝙣𝙘𝙝 𝙤𝙛 𝙇𝙮𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙤𝙘𝙞𝙤𝙥𝙖𝙩𝙝𝙨 𝙫. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙍𝙪𝙡𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙇𝙖𝙬

I gotta catch up with my podcasts ... @luriedanielfavors.bsky.social @karenhunter.bsky.social (I spend my time on @urbanviewradio.bsky.social 🤷🏾‍♀️) I'm listening to Lurie Breaks It Down on Podbean, check it out! www.podbean.com/pa/dir-857b6...

Trump’s reckless tariffs are inflicting permanent damage on AAPI communities and small businesses. Big companies can afford higher prices, local shops and communities can't. AAPI New Yorkers will be devastated if Trump’s irrational trade war continues. He must reverse course.

Turns out @mcuban.bsky.social was correct

🚨A U.S. born citizen was arrested in Florida for entering the state as an “unauthorized alien.” His mother and a community advocate showed his birth certificate during a hearing in Leon County. The judge said she had no authority to release him.

BREAKING: An American citizen has been kidnapped by ICE and is being illegally held in Florida. This is terrifying.

Question: Not sure how 2 ask this but am wondering. If there is knowledge or sustainable evidence that Garcia could be unalive, could that be a reason for going straight 2 a criminal contempt charge? Not sure I asked that correctly. @mspopok.bsky.social @kfa-legal.bsky.social @meiselasb.bsky.social

Stocks fell for a third day in a row Thursday morning as investors wait for direction on Trump's reckless tariffs. The S&P 500 has dropped more than 6% and the Dow and Nasdaq have each dropped more than 7% since Trump announced his reciprocal tariffs.

I've been clear: if President Bukele doesn't want to meet here in D.C., then I intend to go to El Salvador this week to check on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's condition and discuss his release. Kilmar was illegally ABDUCTED and deported by the Trump Admin. He must be brought home NOW.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

So we had an earthquake today, and something amazing happened…

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has unanimously denied the Trump administration’s attempt to defy a federal court order requiring the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by midnight tonight.

⚠️ Trump says he is imposing an ADDITIONAL 50% tariff on China if they don’t remove their retaliatory tariffs against the U.S.

Donald Trump says he’d “love” to send American citizens to a Salvadoran gulag. This is unconstitutional. Full stop.

Oh.

American Democracy started here in Philly. Today 15,000+ told Trump-Musk #HandsOffPhilly 📸Credit: @pt74.bsky.social @50501philadelphia.bsky.social @newpennsylvania.bsky.social @phlscienceaction.bsky.social @pftlocal3.bsky.social @indivisible.org @maddow.msnbc.com @maddowblog.msnbc.com

Philly !!!

Philly shows up! #handsoff #rally #philadelphia

Philly.

Philly is LIT

Trump's new tariff math looks a lot like ChatGPT's @luriedanielfavors.bsky.social #LDFShow www.theverge.com/news/642620/...

Well done, Corey Booker. "Good trouble!"

Murphy: "Newsflash: These guys are incompetent. They don't know what they're doing. We hired a weekend Fox News host with no diplomatic or management experience with a checkered personal history of abuse and alcoholism to be our chief national security official. And it's going very badly."

Of course, there’s more: Trump’s National Security Adviser Michael Waltz and his team used personal Gmail for government business. One of Waltz’s top aides even sent highly sensitive military data—positions, weapons systems, and war intel—over Gmail. But Hillary’s emails are the real scandal.

Cory Booker is 100% with us: “What other Americans are doing, they’re not waiting for us in Congress to lead. They’ve decided to take matters into their own hands and do something different. Those people were demanding that I catch up—to try and do like they’re doing.” He gets it, folks.

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

What @booker.senate.gov is doing right now is so good. There are currently tens of thousands of people watching across platforms as he’s live streamed on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, & more! Everyone will be talking about this tomorrow AM leading into a big special Election Day!

So MAGA is admitting Trump is weak and ineffectual. The President of the most powerful country on Earth can't convince Bukele of El Salvador to send back innocent men picked and deported to his prisons. Is that what you're saying, MAGA?

Thank you Senator @corybooker.com! That’s the post…

Tomorrow i cleared my calendar and will anxiously be watching the returns come in... Wisconsin and in Florida. To use an old football saying... We left it all on the field.
