Elon Musk's DOGE has access to 19 sensitive systems at the Department of Health and Human Services. In at least one instance, it appears that access was granted without the proper security training.

How about the US stop paying El Salvador to imprison people grabbed in the US and rendered to El Salvador without due process? That’d be an easily doable first step. Sen. Kennedy must know this. So he’s lying to the American people in order to help violate both rights and explicit court orders.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

This whole blaming the black mold business: the bigotry started long before the mold was present. The black mold is not the cause of some new form of bigotry. It’s suggesting the person, who has always been vile, just needs to be removed from the proximity to the mold and they’ll change.

Dear media, It's trafficking The word you're looking for is trafficking Coupled with kidnapping The only thing he's deporting is a fuckton of American embarrassment to every country in the world. STOP calling them deportations. That is a legal term. It's not even close to what he's actually doing

Fifteen years ago, UKIP had 3.1% of the vote and no seats. Then one hint of a principled stance from Brown dismissing anti-immigrant hate as bigotry, and the entire faux-liberal elite of the media & political class forced him to bend the knee. They made their choice of fascism good, socialism bad.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation. I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

So important ➡️ In 2016 when North Carolina issued a ‘bathroom bill’, similar to what is happening in the UK right now, our Conservative government issues a travel warning to LGBTQ+ people. They recognised North Carolina was not a safe place for LGBTQ+ people. Our MPs need this spelled out to them.

Musk’s staffers are now forcing federal employees at several agencies including the FAA to sign non-disclosure agreements. The goal is simple: silence the resistance through more threats and now, forced agreements. Maybe we’re not supposed to be talking about being forced to sign NDAs… oops, lol.

No attorney general should ever speak like this. She's Trump's advocate, not the people's lawyer, which is what the AG's job is. Whatever state she is barred in should start disciplinary proceedings immediately. This isn't subtle or arguable, it's wrong.

I know a lot gets forgotten about the first Trump administration but they arrested a local judge for the exact same thing in 2019. This isn't the first time. This is a fascist move by this administration but one they've done before.

It boggles my mind that anyone would say Democrats have to choose between slamming Trump and the GOP on tariffs and slamming them on due process (Abrego Garcia) because one is a "distraction" from the other. Just dumb. Slam them--completely flatten them--on both and more, ove and over.
