HAPPENING NOW: The Justice Department has missed a 5pm deadline to file details about Kilmar Abrego Garcia's whereabouts and efforts to comply with a judge's otder to facilitate his return. Still waiting to see if they're just a few minutes behind or not planning to file at all

Marjorie Taylor Greene buying Apple, Pi, Qualcomm, Dell, Amazon, and Lam stocks seems a lot more sus before the tariff exemptions on electronics components, smartphones, semiconductors, and computers. Martha Stewart would like a word.

When Rubio announced the agreement with El Salvador in February he touted it as a way to outsourcing the federal prison system by allowing the US to send American citizen inmates there to serve their . This undercuts the Trump administrationā€™s claim to the courts that it canā€™t get people back.

Data rights are human rights

@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

AOC: ''Donald Trump is a criminal. A criminal found guilty of 34 felony counts of fraud. Of course, he is lying and manipulating the stock market too. He is making himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him rich. Not you, not me, not the people.''

Canadaā€¦ no! Donā€™t fucking do it!

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOCā€™s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed ā€” and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

If Trump made the request, President Bukele of El Salvador could fly Kilmar Abrego GarcĆ­a home to America. If necessary, the Trump regime could pay for Abrego GarcĆ­aā€™s safe return. That would certainly qualify as ā€œfacilitating.ā€

The boycott is working, Targetā€™s stock has declined for 10 consecutive weeks. Itā€™s the longest losing streak in the companyā€™s history. I donā€™t know which business owner needs to hear this, but you donā€™t magically get conservative customers by betraying your liberal ones. Go anti-woke, go broke. šŸ“‰

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while theyā€™re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, itā€™s legalized corruption.

Trump tried to bury this story on a Friday night, but itā€™s extremely important: Heā€™s planning to take land on the border controlled by the Dept. of Interior and sign it over to Dept. of Defense so migrants ā€œwould have trespassed on a military installation,ā€ resulting in harsher punishment.

Greg Abbottā€™s stalling the TX-18 election to help Trumpā€™s agendaā€”keeping a safe Dem seat empty for 7 months. @isaiahrmartin.bsky.social isnā€™t just another name on a ballotā€”heā€™s the next-gen fighter. Heā€™s calling Abbott out and ready to raise hell in Congress for people the GOP tries to silence.

Gomez: It doesn't matter if you're young, old, or Gen X, Gen Z. We are now a new generation. We are the fuck around and find out generation. Gomez: Fuck around Crowd: Find out

Here is an up to date list of Big Law collaborators along with how much in free legal services they have pledged to Trump's causes. Paul Weiss 40M Cadwalader 100M Milbank 100M Skadden Arps 100M Willkie Farr 100M A&O Shearman 125M Kirkland & Ellis 125M Latham & Watkins 125M Simpson Thacher 125M

RFK believes that he is one of the genetic elect and that it is a violation of the natural order to either impose on the genetic elect with public health OR prevent nature from taking its course with those who are predestined to biological damnation.

President Trump and Netanyahu vowed to remove every Palestinian from Gaza. Netanyahu broke the ceasefire. Bernie Sanders introduced two resolutions to stop the sale of 2,000 lb bombs and other weapons to Israel. These Democratic senators voted against Bernie and for the bombs. They back genocide.

THIS IS A MUST READ explaining the real purpose behind the tarrifs by Senator Chris Murphy. It is very sinister. "They arenā€™t designed as economic policy. The tariffs are simply a new, super dangerous political tool" Read the photo or click link to original post. bsky.app/profile/chri...

Q: I take that to mean you are not on board with trying to find ā€œcommon groundā€ with Trump... A: @dananessel.bsky.social: "Common ground in destroying our federal system of government? His actions are antithetical to everything I've worked my entire life to support."

When Trump changed sides in Russiaā€™s war against Ukraine, Republicans acted as if nothing had changed. It takes a special talent to betray an entire worldview without missing a beat:

Deplorables.

The Byrds release ā€œMr. Tambourine Manā€ today in 1965. ā€œIf youā€™re someone who grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore, the song is like a little telegraph, said David Byrne. ā€œHearing that, I realised: I have to get out of here because .. thereā€™s a whole world out there that I donā€™t know anything about.ā€

WSJ Editorial page welcome to the resistance?

Good morning Bluesky !

RFK Jr is a nutjob, wacko conspiracy theorist. Everyone knows that. The fact that heā€™s in such a position of power is absolutely outrageous.

Anne Applebaum does good work based on real-world experience with autocracy and corruption, particularly in Russia and Hungary. She knows her stuff.
