Trump is breaking the law. How is that not in the headline?

NOW: Judge Boasberg has called an emergency hearing regarding the imminent movement of detainees to CECOT in El Salvador. I'm on the public line and I'll post what I can about the hearing here. 1/

Van Hollen: I should also just say, I mentioned the fake margarita, they actually wanted to have the meeting by the side of the pool in the hotel. They want to create this appearance that life was just lovely for Kilmar. Which of course is a big, fat lie.

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.

Not the same indeed.

Let's Go!!!!!!

Weather is getting nice, what if 10 million people went outside at the same time

Thank you, Sen. Van Hollen, for standing up not just for Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his family but for every American who believes in due process. We can't stop speaking out until he is home and this administration is forced to stop its horrific practice of kidnapping people without charge or trial.

Our voices are stronger when we howl together 🐺🐺

The right to vote is sacred to American democracy. The SAVE Act flies in the face of that principle.

You're playing politics with people's lives, Lawler. Cutting Medicaid will have real-world consequences: people will die, families will suffer, and communities will be devastated. Is that really what you want? #MedicaidCutsKillUS

As a lawyer, I can tell you why Abrego Garcia must remain in El Salvador. If he were free, he could sue me for defamation and win. by Pam Bondi

People need to understand what this budget the Republicans have proposed for the long term would mean in their everyday lives. So what are they using this Medicaid cut money for? They're using this to give tax cuts to a bunch of billionaires. #MedicaidCutsKillUS

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Trump will reportedly end the IRS Direct File program that allowed taxpayers to file taxes for free. This comes after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government for years to block IRS free file. Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration. See how this works?

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

If you're in WI, please consider signing a petition to encourage WI Republican reps to vote NO on Trump's budget cuts. Sen Ron Johnson & US Rep Glenn Grothman, Scott Fitzgerald, Tony Wied, Tom Tiffany, Derrick Van Orden, and Bryan Steil support Trump's budget. actionnetwork.org/petitions/vo...

This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason
