So I saw this fascinating video earlier today by @heatherrenner about finger length ratios and their relation to sexual orientation… www.instagram.com/reel/DKsFfN1... And then I came across this pic of Nancy mace and now I’m wondering: Does Nancy have gay fingers?

it really is astounding that a presidential administration crashed the growth trajectory of the wealthiest country on the planet in basically two months

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Plenty of politicians on both sides of the aisle feel threatened by rising class consciousness.

Have I shared this yet? If so, once is not enough!!!

Hegseth is reckless and can’t be trusted with our military secrets. He must be removed www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

"Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed information about forthcoming strikes in Yemen on March 15 in a private Signal group chat that included his wife, brother and personal lawyer, according to four people with knowledge of the chat."

History always has a lesson.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

Your periodic reminder that one way to think about privilege is: who's allowed to make mistakes?

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

If you love your library, listen up…

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.

Most countries are telling people NOT TO VISIT THE UNITED STATES. Be careful, there are no human rights in the United States and people suffer from horrible mistreatment

This is big: House Republicans tucked language into the budget res “rule” that bans the House from voting to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration used to impose tariffs. TL;DR lawmakers who vote for this are officially giving up their power to revoke his tariffs until October.

Finally some positive news from Missouri.

Tonight we learned that it was indeed Andry, the gay man sent to El Salvador because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, who an American journalist saw sobbing as guards slapped him repeatedly and shaved his head. He is an innocent. And Trump sent him to a torture prison. Bring them back!

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

You guys, they're not stupid They're doing propaganda When they lie through their teeth, they are doing propaganda Do you think the people behind Big Brother in 1984 were stupid? Big Brother says lots of nonsensical shit. It's called p r o p a g a n d a

Seems like this should’ve been a bigger deal. 🤷🏼‍♂️ www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

This is so sickening. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

Also I hope we're all on this same page EVERYONE needs to be brought out of that El Salvadorian hell hole they were ALL wrongfully deported. I mean it's good to focus on 'And this guy was here legally and not ever a gang member AND they're Venezuelan' but NO ONE should've been sent there

Right NOW, a Maryland man is in a prison in El Salvador. He was sent because of an ADMIN ERROR. His life is in danger every day. Is he even still alive? Meanwhile, Trump is playing golf with the Saudis. The fallen U.S. troops weren't going to pay him.

We warned you of their plan

so as i understand it the president has driven an improvised fertilizer bomb directly into the foundation of global trade?

My 18 year old has been watching Cory Booker’s filibuster since 9 this morning. Sen. Booker is inspiring a whole new generation #corybooker

Does anyone know if there is video of the meeting Cory Booker is talking about (1:28 pm pst) of the Canadian woman politician going over the history of US/Canada relations? I feel like I need this primer.

Judge Susan Crawford just dropped a video against her opponent for a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court: "How corrupt is Brad Schimel?" Get out and vote for her, Wisconsin! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

NEW: @aclu.org obtained ICE's "Alien Enemies Act Validation Guide," confirming all it takes to be sent to rot in prison in El Salvador is being Venezuelan and 1) having a tattoo an ICE officer says is a "gang tattoo" and 2) displaying "logos," "symbols" or clothes an ICE officer says are gang signs.

Unkind men so often whither in the face of unkindness.

Do NOT rank Cuomo on your ballot. He never ranked NYC families on the one issue this decade that mattered most.

IT GETS WORSE Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth brought his wife, a former Fox News producer, to two meetings with foreign military counterparts where sensitive information was discussed, according to multiple people who were present or had knowledge of the discussions. New via @wsj.com:

If you don't want to see this horrible garbage happen in every future high-stakes election, make sure it demonstrably fails in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race by helping elect Susan Crawford
