NEW: The govt has filed it's daily status report on Abrego Garcia. ICE official Evan Katz declares Abrego Garcia was removed illegally, but that's okay now because the government has declared he's a member of MS13, and they have no further updates. WOW. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

We're less than 10 minutes from the daily status update deadline for the government in the Abrego Garcia case. The Trump regime filed it late and incomplete (provided a more complete response wasn't filed under seal) yesterday. Let's see what happens today.

Trump doc: President is 6’3, 224 lbs.

I guess the racism is just not enough anymore. Huh. KKK será será, as they say.

Have we considered that maybe tariff is his word of the month? 🤔

The measles outbreak in West Texas didn't happen just by chance. The preventable disease ripped through communities sprawling across more than 20 Texas counties in part because health departments were starved of the funding needed to run vaccine programs, officials say.

See, what people don’t understand is that El Salvador is located just beyond the event horizon of the Central American black hole. It’s not that they don’t want to bring him back, it’s that they can’t. It’s science!

NEW: The Trump administration, via a senior State Department official, says Kilmar Abrego Garcia is alive in El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison. But they still won't say if they're doing anything to get him back. Details w/ @joshgerstein www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

Serious point: This might be the most interventionist American government in my lifetime. The price of just about every good reflects the good thinking of the Commissars in Washington DC implementing their 5-year plan for National Greatness, rather than market forces.

This is organist Olena Kohut, killed today in Sumy by the Russian missile. Joseph Rheinberger, Visione, op. 156 no. 5 💔

He didn't know the exemptions were coming and he has no idea how long they'll last. Nobody does, we're all just supposed to dance around the Mad King until bond markets treat us like the unpredictable pariah state we've become.

Gun violence is killing more children than anything else in America. Congress should be expanding gun violence prevention efforts, but the Trump administration is cutting the very grants designed to save lives.

There's a reason ICE agents wear masks in the street. From Kristi Noem's war-crime propaganda to the airport officers harassing innocent tourists, the MAGA deportation regime is not just immoral but increasingly criminal Someday, there must be justice.

Feels like it should’ve been a bigger deal that the Arkansas voucher application program literally asked voucher users if they wanted “a different racial mix of students” Especially since it was @SarahHuckabee that came to push @GovBillLee’s scam

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

I do wish that more stories about the El Salvador prison where Trump disappeared people would note that it’s only different from US prisons in that it’s in another country, not because of the conditions. People are tortured and put in grave danger on American soil every day in our prisons.

Figured I'd make a little thread with things people may not know about the cruelty of U.S. jails and prisons. 1. In California, guards force detainees into "gladiator fights" for their own amusement. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Bring back *everyone* who was sent from the U.S. to CECOT in El Salvador. *No one* should be sent there. ALL their rights were violated. ALL of them should come home.

Mirroring Russia's 2022 invasion strategy of Ukraine, the US Trump regime will deploy troops along the Panama Canal for what it claims is "training, exercises and "other activities"" after months of threatening invasion. Panamanians say the US of launching a “camouflaged invasion”. #panamainvasion

Okay, a request: a month or two ago, before the latest trade war fiasco, someone posted a graph showing tariff adjustments made *in a single day* from the Trump administration. It was pretty funny. Anyone know where to find that chart?

Seems pretty clear that doge is a total scam

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

I wrote about how Trump might screw up your weather app for @rollingstone.com www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Tonight while the USA sleeps, 129 million birds will fly overhead as part of spring migration. Many will be tiny, colorful visitors arriving from South and Central America, such as warblers. Migration modeling is fascinating. Yup, that’s BIRDS on the weather radar. 🌿 🪶 Learn more: birdcast.info

Was not expecting to open the main CBC page this morning and see this! In today’s climate, I feel our message is even more relevant than even just a few months ago when the interview was recorded. www.cbc.ca @christelvaneck.bsky.social @lydiamessling.bsky.social

Reminder: Trump’s crypto coin is an obvious avenue for bribery, and everyone should be horrified — Good explanation 👇🏽 (And everyone who wanted Biden charged for bribery is silent 🤐 as Trump moves to free the informant who lied to the FBI about it)

At least 21 people killed, 20 more wounded as result of russian missile strike with 2 ballistic missiles in Sumy Source: liveuamap.com/en/2025/13-a...

“BRING HIM HOME” 🔥

CC GENOCIDE STOP NAZI VANILLA ISIS ARE YOU NEXT??? WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN SEX TAPES????????

Let’s send food safety inspectors to the coal mines’

If I had to reregister to vote, post SAVE Act, I'd need: a $25 copy of my birth certificate, a $5 copy of my name change, a $3 copy of my marriage license, and an $89 drivers license. OR a $165 passport. Not only is it a poll tax, it's also a pink tax.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

Americans are taking a stand against authoritarianism and the billionaire takeover of our government. 36,000 people RALLIED with Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez today in Los Angeles.
