The church said it's terminating a decades-long partnership with the federal government to help refugees arriving in the U.S., citing moral opposition to resettling white Afrikaners from South Africa.

Paul: They started out at 145% got down to 80% now 30%. It is 30% more than we have on currently. It will be a 30% rise in goods coming from China, and somebody will pay that, it will be the consumer.

The Bondi girl who was a lobbyist for Qatar approved it. She was paid 100k a month from Qatar to lobby for them. Dripping with deceit and corruption

Remember that several people asked Pam Bondi during confirmation SPECIFICALLY what she would do on matters pertaining to Qatar (which she did not disclose) or GEO (pertinent to the Baraka arrest). She said she'd consult top career lawyer at DOJ abt recusal. Then she fired that lawyer.

Stephen Miller, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem and a whole lot of ICE/DHS types is will discover a Strange New Respect for habeas corpus and the rule of law when the 2029 Truth and Reconciliation Commission arrests them for human trafficking, conspiracy, kidnapping, and child abuse.

NRA in 2020: "We need guns to resist tyranny!" NRA in 2021: "We need guns to resist tyranny!" NRA in 2022: "We need guns to resist tyranny!" NRA in 2023: "We need guns to resist tyranny!" NRA in 2024: "Ya know, tyranny's not so bad."

I just wrote about Justice Sotomayor's forceful call to action for lawyers. Hoping Democracy Docket can get it out to members tomorrow. Sign-up now! hubs.ly/Q03jcjqV0

This part

AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

Why are ICE agents wearing masks and dark sunglasses?

EPA administrator Lee Zeldin is cutting 65% of scientists/jobs at the new Environmental Destruction Agency. He has already rescinded over 400 projects that had been funded. Let’s show up at this celebratory ribbon cutting and boo the new EDA!

They had lawyers, trials, most were given pretrial release, allowed to testify in their own defense, got discovery, could call witnesses, could cross-examine witnesses, could present mitigation at sentencing, and had a right to appeal.

Turns out you can shape the agenda with dramatic action and maybe even shift public opinion. Crazy.

Very creative, San Francisco! 8647 ✊

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

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

BREAKING: Sen. Chris Van Hollen says he was denied entry into El Salvador prison where mistakenly deported man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, is held. Follow AP for live updates.

Gangs members. Straight to El Salvador! Lock them up! Lock them up! Lock them up!

The turnout tonight for @aoc.bsky.social & @sanders.senate.gov was insane. We posted up on the street outside cuz the line was 3mi long! A ray of light in discouraging times.

I boo too 🙃

I boo too 🙃

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

Sen Chris Van Hollen is doing his best to try and get to Garcia, so far the El Salvador president is playing games, I hope Republican voters understand that each one of those innocent immigrants that die there they will own it. responsible for whom they put in office that allowed this to happen.

This is brave This is good Thank you

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

I cannot convey enough how grateful I am to the millions of you all supporting us with your time, resources, and energy. Your support has allowed us to rally people together at record scale to organize their communities. All with an average donation of $21. THANK YOU & Pa’lante 🙏🏽♥️

We had the reporter on tonight; @maddow has the whistleblower

This is it. We’ve abandoned Europe and our allies for a Third World tinpot dictator.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

The worst freaking people... unreal

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

AOC: When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror

The constitutional crisis is here. The President is disobeying lawful court orders. His advisors and allies are cheering him on. And Kilmar Abrego Garcia remains trapped in a jail in El Salvador. youtu.be/HGTIELDTHOo?...

Authoritarianism

We haven’t reached bottom yet. Because there is no bottom to his moral depravity.

I’ve just posted this video message to members of the DC Bar, urging them to vote *AGAINST* AG Pam Bondi’s brother to be its next president. Please pass this on to anyone who is eligible to vote. www.instagram.com/reel/DIcQFxt...

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

I helped!

Everything is breathtakingly stupid

Absolutely

And he was going to use a hammer...sound like a familiar event the GOP parlayed into memes and a joke? It should because that is exactly what happened with Nancy Pelosi's husband.

My heart goes out to Governor Shapiro and his family after the recent arson attack on their residence. Such acts of violence have no place in our society. We must condemn this behavior no matter what side of the aisle you’re on. www.cnn.com/2025/04/14/u...

Stephen Miller claims on Fox News that returning the Maryland father who was wrongly deported to El Salvador would constitute a "kidnapping" and "invasion of El Salvador's sovereignty." "He was not mistakenly sent to El Salvador," Miller lies. "This was the right person sent to the right place."

The crowd and overflow crowd for the Bernie Sanders/AOC event tonight in Utah. Wow.
