Trump’s plan to militarize 632 miles of borderland isn’t just about immigration — it’s a calculated attempt to expand military authority at home. By reframing federal land as “military installations,” he’s testing the limits of the Posse Comitatus Act — and laying groundwork for mass deportations.

Goldman: "Think about whether any of us want to vote a certain way but bc we fear for our personal safety, we decide to vote differently. We are no longer representing our constituents. We are representing something else more like the bully threatening us. That is more like Vladimir Putin operates"

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory Again… The treatment for an ectopic pregnancy is an abortion The treatment for a septic uterus is an abortion The treatment for a miscarriage that doesn’t release is an abortion If you don’t get these procedures YOU DIE YOU. DIE. #AbortionIsHealthcare

David Geier and his father, Mark, fleeced families of $5-6K per month promising prostate cancer drug Lupron as a "miracle cure" for Autism. Mark Geier had his med license pulled in 9 states and David was fined for practicing medicine without a license. Their papers were retracted. Disgraceful

Whistleblower Dan Berulis says DOGE opened government systems to Russian IP addresses and manually deactivated all safety measures. Huge amounts of data were stolen. Berulis was followed and received death threats after coming forward as a whistleblower. youtu.be/DLPL0MZ7aVQ?...

NLRB - DOGE Gave Download Access To Russia The National Labor Relations Board is a small, independent federal agency that stores reams of confidential data including proprietary business information. When DOGE got access, an IP in Russia started downloading data. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post is even calling out Leon Munsk and Tesla for allegedly speeding up the cars’ odometers so they fall out of warranty faster. Seems like they really are trying to distance themselves from him. 🍿

Warren: Whenever there’s a crisis anywhere in the world—terrible things happen—and investors, you know what they do? Investors go to the United States government treasuries, because damn, it just doesn’t get any safer than that. Except with Donald Trump as president.

There’s No Coming Back From Trump’s Tariff Disaster America was the world’s economic anchor. Thanks to the president, it may never have that role again.

Congressional Dems are demanding answers after Trump and his allies improperly acted on his suggestion that it was a “great time to buy” stocks shortly before announcing he was cutting back on some of his new tariffs — a move that made the markets go up dramatically. Read More: bit.ly/3EhCjR4

I keep puzzling over how Rubio thinks it'll bring PROSPERITY to kidnap gay hairdressers based on their tattoos & then pay $20K/year to detain them in a slave camp. We could have spent that $6M on supporting trade with Congo instead, but Rubio has decided torture is better for profits?

Tomorrow El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukeke will visit the White House - no doubt to advance plans to imprison incarcerated U.S. citizens in El Salvador.We need to stop this before it happens. Call both your Senators and your Rep. & tell them NO! 202-224-3121 open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

Marco Rubio has ensured his place in history for war crimes.

What if there was an opposition party that just said "If you give us a majority in congress we'll remove these freaks and criminals from power"

BREAKING: AOC bringing the house down in Utah. “It will never be just institutions and officials alone who uphold our democracy. It will always be the people, the masses who refused to comply with authoritarian regimes who are the last and strongest defense of our country and our freedom.”

Never Forget…..

If the president can spend a quarter of his days in office golfing, corporations can give workers a four-day work week.

Dear Decent Human Beings in the Military and Law Enforcement, If you are ordered to violate the Constitution by this president, please disobey. The millions who served, suffered, and died before you deserve your courage now.

Basically: I don’t think people understand that 36 hours from now it’s possible that America will have a formalized system for abducting enemies of the regime and stashing them in foreign gulags, indefinitely. www.thebulwark.com/p/bukele-abr...

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.

Trump Is Torpedoing the Dollar. You Don’t Want to Know What Happens Next. From soaring loans to higher prices to shifting global alliances, a faltering dollar could reshape the economic order.

Try not to laugh.

Great news, everyone. A surveillance company started by Peter Thiel is part of the hackathon playing with our data at IRS. www.wired.com/story/palant...

Your reminder that every Republican who voted for the budget bill voted to cut Medicaid or Medicare by the amount they voted for ($880 billion). All “other” is $581 billion. Saying the bill didn’t say “Medicaid” is a complete misrepresentation of their vote, also known as a lie.

🚨NEW: The NC Supreme Court's GOP majority will retroactively nullify 2,000 to 7,000 ballots from military and overseas voters unless they quickly prove their identity—but only those who voted in a few Democratic counties. Could overturn Justice Riggs' victory. appellate.nccourts.org/orders.php?t...

Erik Prince, war criminal profiteer, wants to create a privatized offshore gulag where Trump can dump immigrants—and maybe citizens—by rebranding deportation as “transfer.” It’s a Nazi wet dream dressed in legalese; fascist exile camps for cash, enabled by a blood-soaked regime. 1/2

It’s. What. We. Must. Do. ✨

The real problem is that the bill does NOT say you can use your marriage certificate. In that case, you are plumb out of luck.
